It didn't tell her anything about the people here, though. Back to Top   Jayshawn Jackson Agent Trainee Defense [send pm] Joined: October 2015 Posts: 442 What's It Really Like?

Also a fair bit more poetic than the usual ones. Sean, however, takes a bit more time to answer. "Originally it was to learn to control my power. Now... it's just what I do, I guess." Not particularly noble or elegant but it works for him. Back to Top   2Pac - Changes Bio R.I.P. Miranda Fischer Agent Trainee Intelligence The siren's song has been silenced.

At least Sean was patient. It would probably save his sanity - and hairline - in the long run. "Lucky me, then. What do you do when it's this quiet, then?" She wondered if this was a habit or merely a break that would let her know someone beyond her dorm on the first day. Well, almost first person.
