And again, she felt like she belonged.
Rosie had felt the same sickening shock as Samyule ran the blade along his skin, even letting out a little cry. Her eyes waited to catch the first line of blood, but nothing ever came. Just a pale line of red where the blade had been dragged.
Ella, too, had made her eyes go wide. A boy who was so strong in body that he couldn't draw blood from himself, a girl who could manipulate nature... And when it seemed to be her turn to show off some skill, Rosie found that she knew very little about herself at all. She'd been too afraid and discouraged over the past few years to try anything big. All she could do was take a small leaf into the palm of her hand and concentrate.
Energy, she thought. It's what I can manipulate. It's what I feel from others... but this is for myself.
The little leaf lifted ever so slightly from her hand, but did not fly away haphazardly. It stayed trapped in a field none could see, to twist and turn delicately at her will.
"It's not much," she said softly before sending a puff of air towards it. The leaf was swept away and landed on the ground. "I need to learn more... I think I know who can help, too."
Still, Rosie smiled. She'd just done something without mayhem breaking loose! All the times her parents had scolded her because something was dangerous were now so silly. As long as she was calm and collected, Rosie could do something with all this.
Maybe it wasn't so bad after all.

The reactions the others had made as he demonstrated his power were still bolstering the performance artist inside of him. It was a carefully crafted act he'd put on for a lot of the girls at this school. Naturally they were all surprised at first, but after that he managed to scare them off somehow.
"Hm. Do you know how much stuff I could have lifted back in the streets at home with a power like that? I know I would be the most popular dog on the block." He flopped back in the grass, looking up at the sky which was just showing hints of the evening sunset. The sky was still a lovely blue, but each wispy cloud was now edged in gold.
"So now that we've all shown our stuff - well, some of it anyway - what are we supposed to do? I know back in India we'd make some kind of pact to get into movies together and then end up side-tracked dodging some street gang who wants to jump us for our sneakers." He really wasn't sure where this was all going. Were they friends? Did they earn the right to hang around with each other exclusively? Would they - in fact - find him attractive enough to date.
Retard, now's not the time to start that crap. You ruined your chances with at least five hot girls so far, and seriously you need to pick up your game again.
Sighing, he folded his arms behind his head and hooked one leg over the other, clearly intending to make himself as at home here as he possibly could.  d o n ' t x g r o w x u p ┊ ✿xxxxx★:「 EVERY 」stop I GET TOxxxxxxxxI'mCLOCKINGthat g a m exxxxxxxx▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ xxx • • • x bonafide hustler ┊ just making my name ✔xxxxxxxx。Perryxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Mimicing Yule's casual pose, Ella too turned her eyes to the sky, letting them dance over the orange tinge entering the otherwise perfect blue. She was unhappily reminded of the curfew set down for the students and let out a soft grumble. She didn't really want to leave her new friends if she had too, but it seems it was time for them to part ways, at least for today.
"I dunno. There is a little village not far from here, but this place is an Academy first and foremost. We'll just have to find ways to amuse ourselves, I suppose." She made a slight shrug of her little shoulders and after a moment, sighed and sat up.
"Well, seeing as it's going to be night soon, we should all probably head back inside. I don't know about you two, but I'm not one for rule breaking-well, unless the rule is utterly ridiculous- and unless you have special permission to be outside, I'm pretty sure our curfew is when the sun goes down." She stood and stretched, reaching her arms to the rapidly color-changing sky.
"Makes sense to me. I hear from one of the teachers we have several students who are...required to take night classes. Personally, I don't much care for running into unknown beasties." She looked down at her new friends, sticking her hands in her pockets.
"Perhaps we can figure out something to do after class tomorrow? Might be something around here that's fun, you just have to look for it."

It sounded like a good plan.
Even though she had a certain disregard for the rules, Rosie understood that when night came around, you went down a notch on the food chain around here. She wasn't sure if that sounded wonderfully exciting, or terrifying.
Or even romantic.
But Rosie shook off all the sensations and just decided on getting back to the dorm with Ella.
"Let's figure it all out tomorrow, then." The small girl stood with a slight bounce to her step, wiping off the debris from the ground that clung to her jeans. Having friends and a social schedule? This was madness.
And how she loved it.
"My classes end at two... If anyone wants to hang out then, I'll be in my room."

But, since his company was leaving, the only polite thing to do was to follow them. They were right, if he allowed himself to think about it. Things probably got interesting around here after dark. He'd been hearing stories of a secret population of kids going to school at night and staying away from the general crowd. The curious street-rat in him wanted to go poking around in holes until he found one of them. It might lead to an adventure!
Or it might lead to expulsion, and what he didn't need now was to go back to being nomadic. The Cirque was great for receiving laudations and the like, but when it came to being at home they never stayed somewhere long enough to really feel comfortable. This place had just begun feeling that way.
"If that's what you guys want to do." He shrugged. It was a little disappointing, but he supposed there was no other way to stay together after-hours. He wasn't allowed in the girls' dorm, and the girls weren't allowed in his. "I'm not...planning on going to classes tomorrow, actually, but I'll see you guys after yours."
He brushed the dirt and grass and leaves off his jeans and re-adjusted the hood of his sweatshirt. "Let's go back then, no sense wasting what light we do have just standing here..." Leading the way out of the gardens was a less stressful experience than finding his way there. There was no upset girl he was chasing after, and no lost girl he was wondering about if she fell in the ponds.
The trek up to the dorms wasn't a long one, and they'd be separating in less than ten minutes. d o n ' t x g r o w x u p ┊ ✿xxxxx★:「 EVERY 」stop I GET TOxxxxxxxxI'mCLOCKINGthat g a m exxxxxxxx▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ xxx • • • x bonafide hustler ┊ just making my name ✔xxxxxxxx。Perryxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
