Theo wasn't looking forward to the class at hand, but it was definitely better than some of his other classes which made him extremely apprehensive at times. This was an agility class; a class meant to test your speed and help you improve upon it. There wasn't going to be any use of powers here, or so he hoped. The last thing he needed was to sing and a bunch of bad things happening because he picked the wrong song or something. That would definitely be awkward.
Looking around the gymnasium, Theo recognized absolutely no one. Anemone was not here. Clowrey was not here. Basia was not here. Neither was Straffe. He was once again alone in a sea of people he didn't know and he could feel his nervousness showing.
He fidgeted with his clothing, wondering why in the world his mother made him such a ridiculous get-up. He could only assume she meant well, because his mother was not the type to intentionally embarrass her son into scrutiny. Sighing heavily, Theo almost missed the instructor walking in to the class and begin the roll-call.
Theodore Ashland.
Theo snapped to attention, his crimson eyes slightly dilated from being caught off guard, "H-Here!"

Agatha had been doing well her her agility skills but as far as some of her peers were concerned, she had a long way to go. Sitting a bit off to the side, she watched several of the newer Academy member arrive. Everybody trained together. Or in her case, trained in any class that could take her. The grounds were warm, but not overly so thank god. Her limiters hung on her belt, making sure she didn't get to warm. A lot of light could do that.
So could exercising.
Agatha Rodgers
Her name called she jumped a bit stuttering out a reply. "P-present!" Failure one of the day, caught off guard. Not good for a Hero in training. Better here then out in the real world she supposed.
The instructor began pairing the groups up, a co-operation day or something. As the names were listed off, she her partner was bound to be somewhere. Theodore... Theodore... wasn't that the one in purple who also stuttered? making her way to him, she tapped on his shoulder. "Uh..you wouldn't happen to he Theodore Ashland would you? I'm Agatha Rodgers."

Theo had begun to space out slightly as the instructor went through roll-call and missed hearing who he was partnered with for the class. It was the pitfall of having your last name be the first letter in the Alphabet. It gave you time to let your mind wander, and sometimes his mind tended to wander far.
While Theo was lost in his own mind humming a pleasantly airy tune, he felt a tap on his shoulder and froze slightly, fearing that it was the teacher coming to scold him for spacing out. When he turned he was met with eyes bright as the sun and hair that was as hot as fire.
Uh..you wouldn't happen to he Theodore Ashland would you? I'm Agatha Rodgers.
"Uhm, Y-yes," Theo responded quietly, "I'm uh Th- Theodore Ashland. Uhm, but you can, uhm, you can call me Theo if you want!"
Theo quickly averted his eyes from Agatha, not wanting to seem like he was starring at her or anything. Although, she was very pretty. After a few moments of silence he thought it safe to glance back over to her and took notice of her outfit. Her's was much nicer than his, it even had a hood. But why was she still wearing it?
"Uhm, do you have... any nicknames?" Theo asked.

A shy smile and Agatha nodded. “Yes. Um-“ Idly one of her hands played with her belt. “Snaps. It’s a stupid one I know. But it beats some of the others. I almost got stuck with Burninator but thankfully was able to advert that.” She looked towards the others in the class, warming up, getting ready for the course. “It’s nice to meet you Theo do you um…” A glance at the instructor, then at the course itself. It didn’t seem that difficult, but, then again, she hadn’t seen anyone try it yet. They were to work in tandem, from how the course seemed to be set up. One couldn’t progress without the other. That would be interesting to say the least. Hopefully she didn’t end up getting herself stuck.
“Well do you have any nicknames? Aside from Theo that is. I-“ Another look at the course, and an expression of worry crossed her face. “I think we’ll be working in tandem for this course. “ She sounded nervous, and boy, was she ever.

Theo couldn't help but internally chuckle at the thought of being nicknamed 'Burninator'. Even he thought it was a rather embarrassing name and he was basically called something he found insulting. Granted, his mother gave him the nickname and her intentions were in the right place, so he wasn't about to contest the suggestion she had given him. He just wished it wasn't something so... shoe boxed.
"Oh, uhm. S-So I guess that means you, uhm. You work with fire?" Theo asked, guessing that if she was almost called Burninator, than her abilities were probably something to do with fire. It also brought him back to him meeting Clowrey and their unfortunate encounter in the kitchen with another fire-starting student. He only hoped that Agatha, er, Snaps here wasn't as jumpy as that kid had been. He didn't want to put out someone on fire again. His hand was still aching slightly from that.
When Snaps asked him if he had another nickname, insinuating his rookie name, he nodded quietly and gave an awkward smile to her, "Uhm, y-yeah. T-treble. I'm called Treble. I-it's a musical term! I, uhm, I work with music..."
I think we’ll be working in tandem for this course.
T-tandem? They work in tandem? As in with another person the entire course? Theo could already feel his spine begin to turn into the jiggliest jelly he'd ever seen at the thought of having to work with someone else the entire course. And it wasn't that he didn't like working with other people (granted, he kinda didn't to an extent, being so shy and all), but it was the fact that someone else had to rely on him. It wasn't just his grade he needed to worry about now, it was another individuals. He would be fine if he failed things epically on his own, but damn... If he failed in here he'd be taking someone down with him wouldn't he?
Theo looked around nervously, wondering if perhaps he was able to drop this class and take it at a different time, if only for Agatha's sake. He sighed, internal dialogue taking over, What if this teacher is the only teacher who does agility classes? I'd be stuck in the same scenario with a different person and I'm sure they won't let me out of this. Auugghhhh. Complications. Why can't we do everything individually? It's not like I'm here to be a super hero, I'm here to make sure I don't kill people when I hum a damn tune. I just... I'm gonna have to suck it up.
"S-sounds delightful," Theo commented nervously, giving her another small awkward smile and unsure chuckle. He knew he was gonna have to just try his best. Try his damnedest. Make sure he doesn't make himself look like a failure in Agatha's eyes.
Theo was caught off guard when the teacher spoke to them again, jumping slightly at the voice that seemingly boomed over the chatter of the students.
"Alright class, have you found your partners? Good! Today we're going to be doing agility trials. This is to gauge how quick each of you are individually, and to see where you need to improve as a class. Line-up here in the front with you partner and we'll begin!"

A deep sign, her hands went to the heat limiters on her belt. Fire- if only she had something that simple. “Yes… and well no. Not really. I do.. thermal energy? I mean I can make fires. Sort of. Basically I’m a walking heat source. Just direct waves of heat at things and in theory I can make them combust.” Looking around she relaxed at the last of highly ‘temperamental’ materials. “In theory. In practice most stuff melts. Or I just make people uncomfortably warm.” She motioned to the limiters. “I have to be careful though. Too much heat in… means less control. I’m got it figured out. Mostly. Sort of.” She fell into an awkward silence.
“…………” His name was musical, but she wasn’t sure how that would work in battle. Did he just make loud noises? She guessed that was useful, provided the enemy wasn’t deaf or wearing earplugs. Not to mention it must be a pain for whoever he got paired up with. “I can’t do music really.” Was her reply, and internally, she slapped herself for how stupid she sounded. “Er, playing. Powers aside I would guess you can play… or sing? Treble is the swirly thingy right?” She tried to draw it in the air. “Er……”
Awkward as ever, she shuffled while the teacher spoke up, trying her hardest to not just make up an excuse to leave right there. Yes, tell a nice guy that you were a walking thing that could melt other things. That totally would instill them with trust and confidence! “So um- Theo. You don’t have to worry about my powers okay? So long as I have my limiters we’ll be fine. I promise. I haven’t had an accident.” Recently. There had been the issue with her hair brush, but that was because she’s just forgotten she was holding it. No big deal, she didn’t set it on fire at least. Lining up the teacher gave them a look down.
‘The first part is a partner sprint. One runs to the other side then back and you tag off. When you partner comes around, you take a five second break then run side by side. When running side by side, it’s not a race, you want to be able to go quickly to match each other’s pace. We’ll be watching to see how well you adapt to your partner.’
