Enya would drop off her tree-branch and land next to Rebecca.

"What can you all do?" she asks, her gaze settling on Leesa since she seems to be looking at her.

She gives her a smile.

Adam takes Aaron's hand and squeezes tightly. Super strong tightly.

"Adam Davis. Yes that one. And yes I will give you an autograph. We're all on the same team here and that makes us friends."

Steve looks over his agents.

"Well the plan had been to keep it a surprise, as we do not know the abilities of those who will be matching up against us. But I suppose we could share...?"

He looks over the other agents to see what they want to do. It would give them an additional handicap.

Leo just keeps texting.

"Go ahead and tell them. They can keep the advantage." Adam says smugly.

"I'm an angel." Leesa smiles and winks to Enya.

"Nah, they can figure it out." Tyler says to Steve with a shrug and smile!

Rebecca rolls her eyes at Leesa's remark but doesn't say anything. She doesn't need to. 

Eye rolling leads to her seeing Adam, who's better than Leesa at the moment, and she pauses as the name clicks.

"Wait, Adam Davis, right?  Your dad's a pretty big name."

Mark's eyes wander, as he's trying to figure out which ones seem strong.

Before he finally loses interest and just looks away.

Oh, god, this man bothered her. Piper narrowed her eyes and stepped up to Aaron's side, looking him over once more. "Sorry, mate. Never heard of you." She said, pointedly.

"That's fine."

Adam said to Piper with a shrug. Not everyone was into movies. The other girl knew though.

"Yeah, that's me." Adam continued.


"I think it would be more interesting to keep the surprise intact. I hope you can appreciate the extra challenge. As it is rare to have a dossier on an opponent before a conflict." Steve gives the Agents an apologetic smile.

"Heheh, I see that! If you were to lose all your feathers in a freak accident, would they grow back?"

She's trying to make pleasant conversation...

Aaron doesn't bother trying to out-squeeze Adam, not being interested in a pissing contest! He's also not interested in the autograph, even though he knows full well who this guy is.

"Well, I can tell your power already, big guy," he says to Adam, not losing the smile even though his eyes narrow a little at the incredible smugness. Dad would want to make this guy bleed, but Aaron's going to be happy if he can just show him up a bit.

"Director Harris has a point. I'm sure we'll all give each other a good match, surprise or no. Like you say, we're all friends here."

He does look over at the conversation between Eithne and Leesa, though, sort of curious! Especially since he's wondering what 'being an angel' entails, as powers go.

"Cool." Rebecca nods at the acknowledgement but doesn't comment further. His dad's the big name, not Adam himself.

Her attention turns back to the conversation Enya's having since it's happening right next to her.

Adam let go of Aaron's hand.

"See. Aaron here has the right idea!"

He'd slap Aaron on the back in a friendly gesture. This time with normal strength!

Leo is just texting away.

"You're early, Steve."

Jack says fairly pleasantly, as he walks up towards the gathered group.

"...and you brought your students out already."

"I forgot how often students just hang around the gates."

He said with a sheepish chuckle. But he'd stride over to Jack and extend his hand.

"I thought it would be best to get here a few days before the test. Give everyone a chance to rest and make friends. After all we will likely work with each other at some point."

Against the Empire.

Piper bowed her head deeply to her Director as he arrived, but didn't move from Aaron's side. She just kept a very unpleasant silence.

Jack shakes Steve's hand!

"At some point, maybe. Though, I'm fairly sure my students are better than yours."

He manages to say it with a straight face.

"I am sure they are quite skilled. But I will challenge that and propose a handicap for my students. You may pit however many of your students against each of mine as you wish. I have full confidence that my students will show the fruit of their hard work."

He sounds sincere and that the handicap would be no problem at all!

Aaron stepped aside to make way for Director Gavyns, but more or less kept to where he was otherwise, not sure of what to say and thus more or less just observing. Though as their conversation went on, he'd shoot Adam a look as if he were going, "really?"

It's not actually directed at Adam, it's more his dismay at even the adults getting in on this little whose-academy-is-better thing.

Piper smirked slightly and gave a shake of her head. "I'm going to go finish my book," she murmured to Aaron, pushing up onto her toes so he could hear the near whisper in his ear. "Let me know if anything interesting happens."

Then, she'd give a polite waves to the others. "It was nice meeting you all. I look forward to seeing you around."

She smiles that smile girls do when they're really telling you they hate you.

"I don't know, if your hair got yanked out would that grow back?"

Still smiling.

"Yes! With some time!" she nods, assuming that was the comparison.

"Oh dear, so you have to be careful otherwise you could become useless."

"Then you're going to be unpleasantly surprised when your agents get taken down."

Jack says simply.

"If that happens then we will have a better idea on what they need to work on."

He glanced back to his Agents.

"Won't we?"

No mistaking that parental tone anywhere. It actually distracts Rebecca from Enya's bickering with the new girl, though she glances at Leesa to see her response to Steve.

She's got Enya's back, even if her friend can probably take care of things herself.

"Ha! I don't lose!" Tyler double thumbs to himself in response to Steve!

"Oh, I have PLENTY of uses." Leesa sasses back before pausing as she thinks over that statement.

Leo shuddered at Steve's question and lowered his phone.

"Yes Sir...." He said slowly, speaking for the first time.

"We got this Harris. Don't you worry." Adam would say.
