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.

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.

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.

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?

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?

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.

[voiceinthephone]

And you have a test tube full of acid so eyes on the experiment.

[He looks ridiculous and he knows it but this is a limited edition Freddy Fazbear's Halloween shirt (with accompanying poster) and there will be hell to pay if it gets damaged.

It begs the questions as to why Phil would even wear the damn thing but he wanted to be comfortable]

I'm just prepared.

[linefacingforever]

[ Yu turned his focus back to the test tub, setting it carefully over the burner (which didn't seem right, but that's what the instructions said, so... ]

...you're wearing that limited edition shirt of yours again, aren't you?

[ It definitely wasn't the first time, and Yu found it really endearing. Also, after hearing the story behind the restaurant Phil used to work at, he made a mental note to never go to an American restaurant ever. ]

[voiceinthephone]

What did I say about judging?

[There should be a hashtag campaign that should be #notallfastfoodjoints or something, but given the amount of schoolwork Phil has, he's not doing it.]

Yes, yes I am. It's comfy, it looks good [beauty is in the eye of the beholder is in full effect with that orange monstrosity] and...I forgot to do laundry. Why are you putting acid on a direct flame?

[Does anyone read the lab safety manuals?!]

[linefacingforever]

Because that's what the instructions say?

[ He held the lab sheet up for Phil to see, before just handing it over for him to read. ]

Do you need help keeping your laundry in order? I can help if you need it.

[voiceinthephone]

[As he reads the instructions, Phil's really glad he decided to wear this suit.] Well, professor knows best...I hope.

As for the, uh, laundry business, I just forgot. Had to finish my assignments before 12 am. Why? You offering to help me sort out a month of training clothes?

[linefacingforever]

I don't mind?

[ Yu shrugged slightly. ]

If it's one less thing to worry about, it's helpful, right?

[voiceinthephone]

Considering we get attacked by aliens, robots, megamaniacal students with dad issues, and pretty much our own homework on a daily basis, I greatly appreciate it.

Speaking of, how's things?

[linefacingforever]

Hey, Loki hasn't done anything recently.

[ He smiled faintly at that. ]

It's been fine. It's... difficult to get the hang of some things.

[voiceinthephone]

Uh huh, like the last time he didn't do anything and someone got frozen or mind-controlled? ]

[That poor cafeteria staff.]

Whatcha got trouble with? [Ah the virtues of being non-powered: having a leveled head]

[linefacingforever]

[ Yu had to hide a small smile. Look, he couldn't help but find Loki at least a little amusing, okay? Especially when he thought he could get away with something, only to be yanked around by the ear by his father. ]

[ He paused at the question though, a faint look of embarrassment coming to his face. ]

Ah... well... American culture is... different.

[ He spoke the language well enough; his accent was getting better every day, but everything else... the heavy food, the people outside the school walls. It was a lot to process day to day. ]

[voiceinthephone]

[Well, there's not much Phil can do about the people, but at least Yu has learned the concept of not super-sizing or asking for the large combos. That was...a fun experience.]

I figured as much, though you've been doing pretty good so far! Giant octopus and daily monster attacks notwithstanding.

It takes a while but I can assure you, things will get smoother from here.

[linefacingforever]

Actually the... monsters are pretty much the only thing here I'm used to...

[ Yu let out a faint embarrassed noise, glancing away a moment. ]

...how do you handle it? You don't have... you know. Abilities.

[voiceinthephone]

[To that question: Phil makes a sweeping motion to his hazmat suit.]

I adapt, of course! I mean, sure I don't have powers but I'd like to think I'm clever enough to get out of situations I clearly can't handle.

[Times Phil has actually bailed without giving it a shot? Zero. Phone Guy is stupidly stubborn and even more stupidly loyal]

lab

[shiningrabbit]

... Actually, I wasn't judging. I was thinking how good of an idea that is...

[There's a reason he stopped wearing his bunny hoodie to this class, after all.]

Where'd you get the suit? I might actually look into getting one myself, at this rate.

[voiceinthephone]

Hello-hello! Uh, you might be the first person not to laugh!

[You've just made his day. Phil might be smiling all that protection]

I can get you one? I borrowed it from maintenance on the condition that it gets back in relatively good shape.

I'm sorry this is so late

[shiningrabbit]

Well, I stopped wearing my favorite hoodie to this class for a reason.

[... Never mind that the ears on the hood were a likely hazard anyway.]

That'd be great, if it'd be no trouble.

Don't worry!

[voiceinthephone]

Well, let's put it in perspective...we get into so much trouble that the cleaning equipment includes this level of protection.

What's your name? [Phil lights his arms to shake but it's more squeaks than actual actions]

[shiningrabbit]

Fair point. The cleaning crew having these on hand really does say a lot...

[He can't help his chuckle before accepting the handshake.] Hibiki Kuze. You?

[voiceinthephone]

Phil Gray, at your service! [One look at the experiment and he silently adjusted the flames to prevent any mishaps]

I'm not good at chemistry but I do know that more heat equals more chance of an explosion a-and we've had enough of those.

[shiningrabbit]

Nice to meet you!

[And with that, Hibiki turns his eyes to the experiment rather warily. He picks up the instructions and scans them, humming thoughtfully.] Yeah, definitely enough of those. I'm more of a history guy rather than a science guy... [So this is not exactly his strong point either.]

[voiceinthephone]

[The experiment was at least quelled and their outfits live for a new day] I'm more of a...[Well, time to admit it] Home Economics sort of guy. It's been an interesting life as of late.

Are you, uh, a hero? [Is that the term non-powered students use?]

[shiningrabbit]

Home Economics, huh? Cool. I'm pretty useless in a kitchen or in front of a sewing machine, honestly...

Yup! Or at least, getting there. I'm pretty out of place next to a lot of the other students here though... [Being non-powered himself and all.]

[voiceinthephone]

Hey, if you ever need a quick fix or a snack-

[Like some people who tend to wander into other people's arms and tend to forget basic nutrition] I'm your guy! And in my eyes, you're not out of place, you're where you're meant to be.

[It's better than the alternative...right?]
