Huilliam looked a little puzzled at this request.
"Well I'd prefer for you not to but ultimately I have no control over your actions. As for my powers.... well I can control pigments. I was born with very pale blue skin. As I got older it got darker til it reached this." He said turning to the midnight blue colour he was naturally. "The mutational evolutionists at my last school, the Darwin Institute took some cells from me after I manifested the control over my pigments. In the next two years it's predicted to expand to include the pigments in my clothing. I also have very tough skin on my feet and the palms of my hands. Technically I never need safety gloves or boots. They're also slightly sticky. As for our groups potential..... Maybe we should all do a show of powers now to be sure."

Candice looked at his skin. "Wow it's pretty!" When he mentioned everyone showing her powers she got embarrassed. "My power is so stupid and embarrassing though, it's useless too."

"It can't be that bad." Aki said, freezing the water in the air around her and pulling it into a prism-shaped icecube. "Slong as it isn't fire..." she added quieter, praying it wouldn't be. She doubted either of them would last long if she was. She rolled the ice in her hand. "I manipulate cold, do you still want me to show you?" she asked, looking to Huilliam at this.

Candice laughed. "You know those people who everyone has a crush on? Well it's kind of like that my pheromones are far over normal, so people are always attracted to me, even girls, even children, even my own parents."

Huilliam just shrugged at the mention of the pheremone thing. However, when Aki offered to show him her power he felt his heart skip, even though it was just a general show for all their benefit.
"Go ahead. I may be from New Orleans but I spent plenty of my childhood in icy cold swamp water." He then actually turned to look at Candice properly. True, she was very attractive, but he couldnt help being drawn the other way.

"Doesn't even begin to compare to a blizzard." Aki murmured, mostly to herself as she realized why she oculdn't decide whether he was French, or just some crazy Southern guy. New Orleans, like he said. He still wants to see... Could always show it on one of them, but then it'd have to be all three... Just play with icecubes. Doesn't take much effort... she thought. "Not all that great, but..." Aki said quietly, looking to a spot a few inches above her eye level in the center of them. She made another piece of ice, freezing the water then collecting it into another prism. She let it fall and pulled the cold from it again, leaving only a drop of water to hit the ground.

Candice smiled. "Wow! That's amazing, I wish I could do that." She said looking at the ice. "That's so cool, I'm Jealous Aki." She said looking at her watch.

"Second guessing here, but judging by your age, shouldnt your powers by a little more developed than a couple of ice cubes? I dont mind if it affects the room." Huilliam said. He then realised it sounded kind of dumb. He changed to a sort of steel grey, then to a white with a black exclamation mark on his face.

Aki shrugged, relaxing slightly as the temperature noticably dropped, nearing 40 before she remembered them. She made it rise to where they wouldn't be shivering, pulling the extra cold to just around her, like a second skin. She had to deal with them the rest of the year, she didn't want them mad at her yet for anything. She kept the cold centered around them, the room was too big for her to do it while keeping the energy to keep herself cool. It was too hot otherwise. "Not gonna get anything more, not if I have to deal with the heat. And what's with the exclamation point?" she asked, cocking her head slightly to the side.

Realising he had externalised his thoughts again, Huilliam turned his skin a uniform black and coughed. Now he was embarrased.
"Uh, well occaisionally I lose direct control, like when I'm stressed or embarrased or something.....Mainly around girls." He noted the drop in temperature. Better than air conditioning, he thought.

Candice smiled. "Wow, My team member's are all so adorable, and cool!" She said clapping her hands together she stared at them. "Nya nya." She smiled, taking out a camera. "Let me take a picture of you guys for my photo album?!" She asked holding the camera to her eyes.

Aki hid a grin, before looking sharply to Candice as she heard 'picture'. "What?" she asked, wondering why she would want a photo album, much less have one. Or carry a camera for that matter... Please don't make this happen a lot... she thought pleadingly. She hated having her picture taken, and always had, even as a baby.

Candice smiled. "Please, just one I promise, Once I graduate I want to go home and say, mother, look these were team members, and my friends, we had so many good times." she smiled putting the camera to her eye.

"Problem. Whenever someone tries to take a pic of me the flash makes me lose control and the instincts take over. I go the same colour as whatever walls behind me. I can kind of sense the colours around me somehow." Huilliam said. He felt bad though since it looked like they were going to be friends for the next year. As for Matt, well he could get to know him later. They had whenever curfew was til morning classes to talk. Speaking of which he needed to go sort out his classes. There was some issue about him not doing a language and not wanting to do band since it was an orchestra. His ADD was going wild.

Candice lowered her camera. "Oh, maybe once you learn to control, I want to show my mother the devilishly handsome Hulliam." She said putting her camera away. "I hope this year is really fun." She paused. "Do you like bunnies?"
