» » » 07.11.16

Welcome to Avenger Academy RP's first ever Test Drive meme! This is for people to test out their characters, and get a feel for how they will work in this AU setting. Please read the Rules, and keep in mind that the first round is for people on the mod's Plurk only, though you are still free to post in preperation for next round. If you have any questions, please check the FAQ for answers, and leave questions there if they are not already answered.

» » » Ares

The God of War presents himself as a mean, no funny business gym teacher, and lucky you, you're right in the middle of his class. Since the Arena of War is lost to the Time Fog, you're stuck doing drills at Avenger's Stadium. Expect to be put through sword fighting, take off and landing, shield practice, and of course the more mundane running laps and doing push ups. Magic is only to be used for shield practice, and anyone causing mischief will have to deal with Ares himself.

Doesn't mean you can't try, it just means it won't end well for you.

» » » Nick Fury

Avengers Assemble!

Octobots are attacking a lab space in downtown. Their target: a new chemical compound that is apparently more efficient in powering the wriggly bastards. Get to your assigned teams and get out there before they can make off with that compound, or the octopi will be having the city for dinner tonight!

And Director Fury doesn't give a damn if you don't like your teammates; work it out or don't, just get the job done.

---

» » » Hank Pym

Class is in session, and considering it's Professor Pym's class, it's probably going to blow up in a few minutes. It might be best to make sure your homework is finished and handed in before your lab mate goes for the chemical cabinet, because there's a high chance it'll be on fire otherwise. While your at it, be careful what you touch in the lab; you might end up having an electrifying experience.

...this lab has no safety precautions whatsoever, does it?

» » » Odin

Sucks to be you; looks like you just got caught getting into things you shouldn't have been getting into, and the All Father himself found out about it. Now you're stuck in detention in the Timeless Archives, whittling away at a report that no superhero deserves to be put through. It doesn't look like Odin stuck around to make sure you finish it, though; is it worth risking the All Father's ire just to get a few hours on the dance floor at Club A?

Hibiki Kuze | Devil Survivor 2

[shiningrabbit]

» too bad we don't have any spare trucks to drive into these suckers
Okay, so this really isn't what I had in mind when I said today could use some more excitement.

[One minute, it's hanging out in Club A, low-key complaining about boredom, and the next it's all hands on deck. Hibiki lets out a breathy, nervous laugh as he runs a hand through his hair. He adjusts his gloves, pulls a pair of goggles over his eyes, and turns to his current teammates.]

Let's get moving, everyone! Let's make sure these things don't even get to that compound!

[He's not sure if his teammates are even going to listen to him as he tries to take charge like this, but damn if it isn't worth a shot.]

» safety precautions? who needs safety precautions?
[Another day, another explosion. At this rate, Hibiki thinks he needs to start carrying around copies of his homework. Or get a fireproof folder to carry it in.

He's at least managed to keep anything from catching on fire so far, but who's to say how long that'll last. ... He's already preparing a pair of safety goggles, though. Hibiki's turning to whoever happens to be closest to whisper--

(it's more of a stage whisper really, but with how noisy the place is, it might as well be an ordinary whisper)]

So, how long do you think it'll take for something to blow up this time?

» wildcard
[Of course, everyone needs some time to relax in between class and heroics. If anyone's looking for Hibiki during some downtime, he's easily caught in the lounge area in front of the dorm, the quad, or Club A, fiddling with his phone or tapping away at his laptop. It's easy to get his attention for something or other and unless someone's trying to sneak up on him, he'll be looking up from what he's doing when they approach.]

Oh, hey, need something?

lab

[carbonfrozen]

[Working on his beat-up old hunk of junk car has made Han appreciative of various safety implements, such as: safety goggles, fireproof gloves, and pincers. So of course he's got those for classes at Pym's, because Pym has no concept of the word safety and at this point, Han's not sure what's more dangerous: showing back up at the doorstep of a supervillain who he owes a huge amount of money to, or Hank Pym's classes.

At least he's got a lab partner this time.]

I'm giving it--two minutes, tops. [Which is an unrealistically optimistic expectation, but then, he hasn't been here very long and he doesn't plan on staying.]

safety

[idealprincess]

[ Fortunately her english is still good enough to work through the language barrier at the Academy, but this isn't her first time trying to blend into the surroundings. Like the tides of her element, she is quite malleable when she puts her mind to it. That is until someone startles her out of her revere and Michiru drops a vial that promptly sends sparks across the counter.

Lifting up a small hand held mirror off to her side, she facing it toward the sparks and wisps of water drown them out as she sighs. ]

I wanted to be optimistic and guess five minutes, but I'm afraid the currents won't be shifting in our favor. [ As frustrated as she is, she sets her mirror back down with ease and straightens herself up. ] Maybe coming here wasn't such a good idea.

fight

[legitlessgrump]

And I was hoping to get back to the kitchen too.

[Just when he learned of a new recipe from someone at Club A. Naturally, something like this would happen. And of all things, robots. He really was not meant to tackle on robots.

He noticed Hibiki taking charge, just as Hei was putting on his mask and taking out his knives.]

I trust you have a plan then?

Han Solo | Star Wars

[carbonfrozen]

[one: some assembly required]

[Another day, another supervillain attack, and this time, it's octobots. Han can hardly believe it--his first time reluctantly going into battle with these bozos and this is what happens: pinned down behind an overturned car, shooting down octobots and cursing Nick Fury's name to the high heavens. If this is the price he pays for protection from Jabba and his cronies, he's rapidly reconsidering the danger of just going to see Jabba himself.

He shoots down another eight-legged robot, then ducks back down behind the car.]

Got a brilliant plan cooking up your sleeve or anything? [There may be some bite to his tone now.]

[two: play that funky music]

[Shouldn't Han be in detention? Yeah, he should be, but the lure of Club A is just too strong, and besides, he knows how to sneak in and out of detention already, having been there enough times over the course of his stay. Mostly for escaping detention in the first place, but shush.

He's not actually dancing, though. If somebody invites him onto the dance floor, it's not as if he'll turn them down, but right now it looks like he's mostly just enjoying the drinks. It's as if he's waiting on someone to show up.

Spoilers: he's not, it's just old habit--he used to wait in seedy bars and dangerous places a lot for potential clients looking to have something smuggled through, and even now it's hard to break the habit. He's thus going to be somewhat surprised when somebody walks up to him, but recover quickly and raise his glass to them in a toast.]

What's up?

[three: wildcard!]

[Have another idea for running into Han? Toss it in here!]

One!

[linefacingforever]

[ Yu didn't mind working with Solo -- he was a pretty nice guy, despite the brash front that he put up. What he did mind was the fact that he was actually put out on a mission like this in the first place. He still wasn't that great when it came to using his abilities in the real world, as anyone that was in his magic class knew intimately well. Not only that, but he was the idiot to bring a katana to a fight with a metallic robot. ]

[ He flinched slightly as the octobot Han shot hit the ground, before turning his head slightly, trying not to look as uneasy as he felt at the moment. ]

...I could try to blast them?

[ Yu ended up flinching again as the leg of an octobot came slamming down into the ground uncomfortably close. ]

Though there's a chance I'll hurt us too.

one!

[blackminuet]

[There's enough room in Vivi's oversized sleeves and hat for three or four lengthy plans, written on paper and wadded up - and honestly, that's closer to what he got his early admission for than this is. Maybe he should have brought some. That way he could at least scrunch them up and throw them instead of just retreating behind the car at his first opportunity, clutching his staff like the lifeline it might turn out to be.

Instead, here they are. Oh well. A small part of Vivi does appreciate his current partner's, uh, decisiveness, but that doesn't mean the rest of him can't be just as intimidated as the day they met.]

Um... not really, but...

[Okay, no, focus. Focus.]

If we let all of them go for the same entrance, can't we hit them in a group? [That's probably what he'd do if he was still out wandering somewhere rural by himself. Followed by running away, so it might not be so applicable here, but even so.]

two

[actuallydaredevil]

[ Matt knows a thing or two about scoring a place; he's tracked down enough guys to knows the signs. He can hear the tension and feel the caution in Han's otherwise subtle movements. He wouldn't be suspicious otherwise, but super-senses, you know how it is. ]

I'm looking for the punch? [ Spoilers: he's not looking for the punch. But when you're wearing dark glasses indoors and carrying a billy club cane, you can pull off lines like these. ] I was told there'd be punch.

Yu Narukami | Persona 4

[linefacingforever]

1.) Let's Fake A Training Montage
[ Yu was distracted for a moment from training, turning his head to where Ares was preoccupied with yelling at a student that had shot an arrow off as he was passing by, nearly hitting the God of War in the face. A sympathetic look came to his face as he watched the student cower in utter terror, before turning his attention back to his partner, giving them an apologetic look as he hefted the training sword he was holding. ]

Well... are you ready for this?

2.) Bonding In Warm Water
[Stark was fairly adamant about, "only the ladies," being able to use the hot tub on the roof of his building, but the common baths in the dorms were all taken up, and last he checked, Stark was busy studying about historic women. It was a little creepy, since he had apparently been doing it for hours, but that meant it would just be J.A.R.V.I.S. at Stark Tower, and that was a computer that knew how to keep a secret. ]

[ Yu crept all the way up to the roof, marveling for a moment the sheer size of the hot tub. He started toward to strip down, paranoia that he was going to get caught any second crawling up his spine. Of course, as soon as he set foot in the water, he ended up nearly jumping out of his skin as the roof let out a loud bang, before it began to open up, exposing the hot tub to the open air. He let out a squeak before he could stop himself, throwing himself the rest of the way into the water and hoping no one heard or worse, saw him. ]

two

[carbonfrozen]

[Stark Tower is laughably easy to stroll into. That, he thinks, is the point, but anyway--Han's taking advantage of Tony's slightly creepy preoccupation with historical figures to creep into his tower and chat up JARVIS about modifications to the Millennium Falcon, the beat-up garbage heap old car currently sitting somewhere on campus.]

Look, I ain't asking for rockets strapped to the engines or a suit, I just want something that can help with smuggling-- [--bang.] What was that?

[JARVIS is probably answering him right now, but Han's already taking off towards the rooftop. He pushes the door open and--blinks.]

Uh. Yu?

1

[shiningrabbit]

[... Yikes. Suddenly, Hibiki's glad he's not practicing with a bow.

He still has an unfamiliar weapon in his hands, and, all things considered, he'd really rather not be using it. Yeah, yeah, broaden your horizons and all, but it's a little harder to disarm someone who's just using their fists. Hibiki offers Yu a smile that's more confident than he feels as he hefts up his own training sword.]

Ready as I'll ever be, I guess!

Dos

[shapesifs]

[ Loki could care less whether Stark wanted anyone near the hot tub or not. Honestly, if he wanted women Loki could technically be one--and almost as if to rub it is he happened to have the form right now--but JARVIS was directing his attention elsewhere. Such as the idiot who probably broke the top to the hot tub and was now throwing himself in.

He opened the sliding glass door, looking particularly unamused with Yu. ]

If you're going to sneak in, Narukami, you might want to be a little quieter. [ And anyway move over. Loki plans on enjoy the water too. Leave it to the Academy to surround him with idiot classmates. It's wonder how he manages day to day--well Jan is good motivation also with very horrible nice swimsuit she gave him for such occasions. ]

training montage!

[seeingscarlet]

[Just once Wanda would like to be the one with the sword while someone else has to hone their shielding skills. It's unnerving, because of course Ares has them using very dangerous-looking weaponry. Nothing like imminent risk of serious injury for motivation, right? Some things, it seems, don't change regardless of where you go to school. At least no one's actually died here that Wanda knows of.]

As ready as I will get.

[Scarlet energy surrounds her hands. She's not as defenseless as she looks.]

2

[legitlessgrump]

[Hei needed to find a way to test out the new wire-system he received from Fury. The idea was to give him greater mobility while traveling, and less holes in walls. Seemed to be working just fine as he kept traveling between the school buildings, not even touching the ground. The sheer speed though was something that did catch him a bit off guard. Needed a few more tweaks.

Though when he saw the roof to Stark Tower open, alarms raised in his head. Last he checked, Stark wasn't in, and the odds of it being some trouble seemed high. Zipping off another building, he used the excess speed to land near the water, stumbling a bit before catching himself.]

I swear that's gonna make me sick one day... [He looks around, ready to ask JARVIS before he saw something in the water. Someone was hiding. He held up a single finger, electricity sparking. Well, they couldn't hear him anyway under all that water anyway.

He simply touched the edge, letting out a small, tiny shock into the water to get the attention of the person.]

1

[theserpentsmiles]

[He's pretty sure Ares is just making fun of him now.

Nagisa's training partner has a stockier build and at least six inches on him. It'd be like...fighting Karma. Yeah, there's no way he's getting out of this without a few bruises. He lifts his own training sword awkwardly. It's a very different balance from the knives he's used to, and he can't be as swift or agile with it.

Not that he's complaining. Knives and guns are his forte, but knowledge is power.]

Yeah, let's do this.

Michiru Kaioh | Sailor Moon

[idealprincess]

( Downtown )

Submarine Reflection!

[ A surge of energy knocks one octobot clear into a wall making a decent dent in the concrete after Michiru finally gets her incantation to work along with her mirror. She seems extremely pleased with herself, smiling even with a soft giggle of her own. ]

It worked! [ She slipped into japanese out of habit, but was quickly brought right back to reality dodging a metal arm coming her way. Clearly still having a lot to learn her dodge sends her smashing right into another student also sent out on this mission. ]

I'll apologize later just give me your hand. [ She reaches out to them. Once they grab a hold (if they do) she will pull them back up to their feet along with her. ] Why are there so many?

( Avengers Stadium )

[ Michiru hated outdoor sports with an intense passion regardless of how effortless her skills were at next to all the events she applied herself to--except for sword fighting. She couldn't nail the stance, even with Haruka's confident maneuvers clear in her mind.

She wasn't even holding a double-edge blade correctly. ]

Don't hold back on me. [ Adjusting her footing, she might be able to pull this off. . .assuming she doesn't cut herself first. ] I'm capable of keeping up. [ That's her pride talking. Maybe Haruka was rubbing off on her. She'd never be a fit Guardian if she couldn't get through basic training. ]

downtown

[doesnotjuggle]

I have no idea, [says the teacher's assistant, dusting herself off with one hand and leaning on her staff with the other] but hey, the more the merrier, right?

[Hawke, your priorities.]

Nice trick with the mirror, by the way.

avengers stadium

[legitlessgrump]

[Hei hadn't bothered to correct her, though mostly because he didn't recognize it. While he was trained to fight for a long time in many things, there were limits to what one man could achieve, especially when constantly sent out on missions back then. Which was why he had a sword as well, despite favoring knives. Could learn some stuff anyway.

He smiled at his sparring partner.]

Very well. Show me your moves then!

Wanda Maximoff ✦ MCU

[seeingscarlet]

» use an energy shield
[Gym class is probably Wanda's least favorite, and if it weren't for the few times she's allowed to use her powers, the least useful to her. Flying is kind of fun at least, though she absolutely hates when it's time for sparring practice. There probably isn't a better way to work on her energy shield, but could they at least use less dangerous-looking weapons?

(Of course not.)

Wanda tugs on her red gloves and turns to face her partner for this round. Last week in a moment of panic she'd accidentally ripped her partner's weapon out of their hands (which was fine) and sent it flying towards their teacher (which was very much not fine). Hopefully nothing goes wrong this time.

Red energy flickers to life around her hands. Stay in control.]

Are you ready?

» save the lab!
[Wanda's pleased to find that the octobots don't do so well once they're down a few appendages. The residual energy of the hex bolts seems to have a brief mildly corrosive effect, and there's more than one semi-disabled Octobot shambling around with head portions or limbs missing.

Maybe you're holding your own, or maybe you're not. Either way the nearest Octobot suddenly finds half its limbs ripped out from under it and it falls, hitting the pavement hard.]

This is not the time to pull your punches.

» wild card!
[Have at it!]

use an energy shield

[carbonfrozen]

[Han is not very good at swords. He's great at fighting--the dirty sort of fighting where everything's a weapon and punching someone in the sensitive bits is totally acceptable, anyway--and shooting things. Swords are--well.

He's terrible at swords. His sum total of knowledge regarding swords is "hit them with the pointy end". He is not at all ready for this.]

Yeah, I am. [Settling into a stance that he copied off some medieval fantasy movie.] You?

Marian Hawke | Dragon Age II

[doesnotjuggle]

[one: assist at the archives]

[Technically, Hawke's a teacher's assistant, not a proper instructor--she's a mite too young to do much instructing, but at the same time being just a student is a little too boring for her, so here she is at the Timeless Archives, assisting.

By which we mean she's probably flirting with someone.

By which we mean she's flirting with you.]

Need a little help with that? [Said with a smile, leaning against your desk. There's something to her voice that says she'd be quite happy to help.]

[two: miss the hanged man's drinks]

You know, it's just not the same without the rat-piss whiskey.

[It's nighttime at Club A, and while most people have probably hit the hay by then--or, in some cases, stayed up late to party their way through the night--Hawke's decided to have a few drinks. Granted, it's not actually doing much for her, because all the fake IDs in the world can't fool a robotic bartender into thinking she's much older than 18, but it's the principle of the thing, all right?

She swirls her drink around with a sigh. It's rare that she drops her smile and bad flirting and worse jokes, but hey, no one's around to see, right?

Someone drops into the seat next to her. She looks up.]

Aren't you supposed to be asleep? [There's no real threat behind it, though, it's just the tone of a young woman who really kind of misses her home. Fury's offer is great, sure, and she's been having a lot of fun, but sometimes--well, she misses her mom. She misses her siblings. She misses her friends.

And she misses the whiskey.]

[three: go wild!]

[Hawke can be found pretty much anywhere on campus, because she's a nosy little shit who can't keep out of trouble for very long. If you have another idea for running into her, here's your chance!]

two!

[linefacingforever]

[ Yu let out a surprised noise at being addressed, pausing a moment to adjust his position on the bar stool before glancing over at Hawke. Maybe it was the lighting, but she seemed to look as tired as he felt, never mind that sleep wasn't coming his way tonight. ]

Can't sleep.

[ He wasn't going to admit out loud that he was a little home sick, but the reason was still hovering between them unspoken. ]

What about you?

Hei (AU) | Darker Than Black

[legitlessgrump]

>> Trying to make friends

Well, working with a Greek God was something Hei had not thought he would do, much less with Ares himself. Though he was mostly regulated to doing springs and push-ups, and had been doing so for a while. Seems he was being tested, perhaps a bit mentally as this did begin to feel tedious. Weighing his options though, running seemed more effective than fighting raging diety.

It'd be a bit more helpful if there were more people here....

>> Hei hates robots

Robots were not a thing he was made to combat. Strong meta-humans, sure. He was trained to kill those kind of targets and highly-skilled assassins. Robots well....Considering how he was mostly dodging, using his knife and wire to circle around the robot, eventually getting on top of it and slashing away with his knives. Normal knives would hardly work without some enhanced strength. Thankfully, his powers created a glow on them, lightning covering the blades as he kept slashing away with easy.

Though as he tried to get away, one of the tentacles wrapped him up by the leg, and held him upside down. Quickly, he slashed the tentacle, freeing himself...and getting smacked by the same tentacle through a shop-window.

He groaned, rubbing his head. Thank god for this jacket helping him not be torn to shreds...now if only helped prevent bruises. "Times like this, I really wish Fury gave me better gear."

>> Hei hates science

So aside from robots, another Hei lacked a lot of experience in was science. He knew some basic stuff, though it was mostly in trying to use it in combat. This though? He was just lucky the entire place wasn't on fire. Though not lucky when the current experiment explodes, pushing him back against the wall. Small yet powerful enough to affect only him. Would be handy, if he wasn't currently covered in soot.

"...Is there a guide for science for idiots?"

>> Wildcard

Don't like anything above? Throw in your own stuff or talk to me about setting up something.

Elizabeth | Persona

[elevatoravatar]

1.

So the god of war is here, well Elizabeth won the title of manliest of men in that fighting competition, and while yes, sword fighting with a book is what she was supposed to be doing, just why did she keep looking at a card marked "Chariot" with no images on it and side eying the instructor.

"Soon... Soon I will figure out the Master's secrets."

2.

Octobots, tools of a perverse grasp of technology, so that was her mission. Mayhem and destruction, decapitation of those who oppose her. Sadly Liz has had a very hard time understanding the concept of "Collateral Damage" or "Waiting for your team" so she just charges ahead like a fool, sadly the bad kind, not the kind she marginally is. Thanatos appearing over her shoulder she laughs in a way that would make most people suffer a cold shiver.

"Onward Thanatos, to protect the chastity of all the women with us!"

4.

Ok, so Persona fusion is harder, apparently a LOT harder than bodychucking Odin into Ares, and perhaps Dr. Pym's suggestion of "Just try it and see what happens!" was not the best of suggestions to follow. Still, mistakes were made and Elizabeth doesn't even want to get into what started all those electrical explosions.

Still, a paper explaining just what she did know about personas and persona fusion was rather dull, still it was her task. Not wanting to endanger the potential reward, or at least the potential of another attempt at fusion Liz was pondering. She is fairly certain a club was involved in ONE or more persona components so it was time for field research, or at least, an idiot taking the ONE chair in the library and moving it to the Club to "Continue her research"

2 (Sorry for the delay)

[linefacingforever]

Yu was struggling for breath by the time he finally caught sight of her massive Persona, with her just under it. So much for the city right now; what was supposed to just be a mission in stopping octobots was going to turn into cleanup duty detention, no question. He used what little energy he had left to run up to her, his knees starting to wobble now, but he stubbornly remained upright.

"Elizabeth-san! Please, that's enough," he gasped out. "You're going to get us all in trouble."

Maria | OC

[gunbladegrrl]

War.

[The girl seems born to battle. Her power covers ranged, so her weapons of choice for this are a pair of Cold War-era experimental pistol-grip blades, tempered with carbon fiber or something like that, she has no idea what. Point is, if she uses her energy projection through them they don't break. She's not causing any explosions with them today, though, just going through sword-forms and looking slaveringly eager for a challenge.]

Hey! Spar me!

[No, she doesn't hesitate to call anyone out.]

Fury.

We'll go in as a three-pronged attack. [Without anyone asking her to, Maria has taken control of the planning for her team, her finger tapping on a crudely-sketched map that indicates the Octobot's position in the streets.] If we allow it to focus its attention we'll be destroyed one by one, so spreading out and forcing it to react from all sides will give us the advantage. I want a constant stream of fire on it from maximum engagement range clear into melee -- we have to make it respond to us instead of being able to get the chemicals and get out. Clear on that?

[She doesn't lack for confidence, but who asked her to lead anyway? No one, that's who.]

[sawhell]

"Hey", someone looks confident.

[Edward probably deserved the call-out, considering he was more interested in something he might have spotted in the dirt than whatever Ares wanted them to do up until a moment ago. the ground is easier to inspect from this vantage point anyway He still turns back to face her with absolutely no sign of shame, with only a couple idle swings of his metal arm to gear himself up for the exercise. He hasn't talked to this chick a whole lot, but she does strike him as way too enthusiastic for anyone's good, in his own esteemed opinion.]

Well, if you insist. Count of three? Three... two...

[He's punching on one-and-a-half. No shame.]

Phil Gray the Phone Guy | FNAF

[voiceinthephone]

Class is in- Oh Fazbear why.

Of course.

[That is the sound of a student is just...done. Unlike most of the students in Avengers Academy, Phil's not a superhero. In fact, he used to be a regular student who worked part-time to scrounge up some cash. Where he did work that could earn him a spot in the prestigious Academy? At a haunted pizzeria of course! It takes serious luck or misfortune to survive Freddy's but that's in the past and Phil's already putting away his homework inside his backpack and thinking up ways to spread the damage among the Octobots rather than the people fleeing.]

Hello-hello! And I guess we'll have to introduce ourselves later!

[Like after grabbing the nearest blaster available. Thank you hundreds of dollars spent in arcades! Though Phone Guy here should've expected the kickback, as he let out an undignified yelp.]

Lab: Pay no attention to the walking HazMat suit

[It's not that Prof. Pym's classes aren't fun, it's the fact that they're too much fun and Phil actually likes this Foxy shirt. He's the one wearing the full hazardous material suit and not really caring if he gets stared at.]

Don't judge, I'd rather be safe than sorry and I have enough scrapes and bruises from the octopus attack.

[As you can see, your lab partner is quick to fire shots in retaliation.]

Lab

[linefacingforever]

[ To his credit, Yu managed to hold a straight face for about half a minute when he laid eyes on his lab partner wearing full hazmat gear. He finally had to turn away after that half minute, a faint snort escaping from him as he struggled not to burst out laughing. There was a smile on his face when he looked back. ]

...you look ridiculous.

Nagisa Shiota || Assassination Classroom

[theserpentsmiles]

Gym
[Turns out no matter what country you're in, it sucks to be a tiny guy in pigtails. There's no helping that Nagisa looks like a wimp next to all of these people with flashy powers and bulging muscles. The natural conclusion is that he's in the center of the circle and dodgeball is about to begin.

To his credit, Nagisa's pretty good. He moves easily, clearly already well-trained despite the lack of obvious signs. He isn't even breaking a sweat. So maybe he's not such a wimp.

Once the game ends, he steps away for water.] That was easier than I expected...

Pym
[Oh good god, science here is....intense. This is Nagisa's worst subject to begin with. He's pretty sure a chaotic lab like this one is not going to help his understanding of the subject...

A fire flares up and he has to scramble to get his homework out of range. Isn't the fire extinguisher...on the other side of the fire?] Careful! Can you put it out? Should I go for the extinguisher?

Hmm
[Downtime? Downtime. It's not like 100% of Nagisa's time is taken up by classes, homework, and shenanigans, after all. If you're not up to any of those (or you are and feel compelled to drag him into it), the boy can be found in the library.

One would be forgiven for thinking he had a mountain of homework, considering the open books and notes around him. He's taking frequent pauses in his reading to flip through an English-Japanese dictionary and jot things down. Nerd? Nerd.]

wildcaaaaaaard

[shiningrabbit]

[There's a curious upperclassman peering over his shoulder!]

Someone's dedicated. I don't think I'd be up for all this work on top of what we're already given as homework.

[... So maybe that's not quite the entire truth, he's occasionally here to look a few things up outside of classes (particularly tactics). Hopefully Nagisa won't mind Hibiki looking at what he's doing over his shoulder like this.]
