Yawning, Julian practically stumbled down the hallway. He found himself up at an ungodly hour this morning and took complete advantage of the situation by making sure that he got to the bathroom before the morning rush. He imagined this would be a good practice to fall into, but well, he was a teenager. The thought of waking up this early on a regular basis made him cringe internally, the stuff of nightmares really. Yawning once again the telekinetic scratched absently at his bare-chest as he made his way back to his dorm clad only in his black baggy pajama pants that were slung rather loosely on his hips. Julian's equally black hair stuck up in all sorts of odd and amusing angles. All and all he was making quite the statement for the sleep deprived teen.
The silence was somewhat eerie to the eighteen year old. It was never that quiet here, ever. He almost felt like causing wanton destruction to wake everyone up to give him some sense of the normal feeling of never being alone. He wondered idly, as those who are freshly woken often do, if this was a common sort of occurrence that he'd just never had the pleasure of experiencing. Being able to hear oneself think had become so completely rare that he forgot that it was natural.
Thinking aloud because he was too tired to do otherwise he spoke in a rough voice, more from the hours of lack of use than any sort of ailment, "I wonder if the teachers have sound proof rooms. That'd be pretty sweet. They've already got connected bathroom, why not got the full-" He was soon cut off by another yawn, one so 'strong' that it made his eyes water slightly. Blinking blearily Julian wondered how long this eerie silence would last.

Katie had been up for a few hours already in an attempt to get her body used to waking up at an early hour as she didn't want to be late for lessons once they begun, most of the students here were yanks so didn't have much of an alteration to get through.
So far she'd combed her hair and brushed her teeth but she needed to wash it at some point this morning though she didn't want the noise of the shower to wake everyone up. She was clad in a big fluffy and incredibly soft black dressing gown complete with slippers in the shape of cows. After she'd left the bathroom she heard someone else enter. apparently she just missed them, going down in to a kitchen she poured herself a glass of juice and on her way back to her room she heard someone speaking, turning the corner she peered at him, she'd not really met anyone yet so was unsurprised to not know who this guy was. Smirking she spoke out loud, hoping to catch him off guard "They say that talking to yourself is the first sign of madness, you know..."

Jumping slightly, Julian blinked blearily at the girl who had just spoken. In his tired stupor, something that generally took him quite some time to snap out of, he had trouble finding a name to this girl's face. Tilting his head to the side, the dark haired boy tugged up his pajama pants slightly, knowing they were probably slung just a little too low for it to be decent to the sensibilities of many of the residents of the academy. Giving up on placing a name to the face, Julian shrugged and grinned, "In this mad house? It's almost a pre-requisite at times."
Taking broad strides to the young woman he crossed his arms over his bare chest, perhaps in some way to achieve a slight sense of modesty in front of the much more, though certainly not more formally so, dressed new girl. Smiling a little apologetically, Julian asked, "I can't seem to remember you, are you new here?" The taller mutant had been a resident since he was sixteen, long enough to get to know any of the students who had come before, and any of the ones that came in the years later. Frowning slightly, he didn't like being put in such positions. Not knowing people. It never looked good. He silently cursed the fact that didn't get telepathy with his telekinesis.

Katie grinned, well at least at this early time the guy was still a little bit amusing...and he used bigger words then half the guys she knew back in the UK. When he walked towards her she decided to stay still and begun creating happiness pheromones...just in case she needed them help.
When he asked if she was new Katherine nodded her head "mhmm....that I am, this would...almost be day two of my marvelous Massachusetts adventure, though it's been alright so far...I start lessons today, so I thought I'd get up early to try to get rid of the pain in the arse jet lag"

Grinning brilliantly Julian was glad that he hadn't just made a complete ass of himself in front of someone whom he knew and was just too tired to recognize it. This was probably the reason for his larger than normal smile, after all it was still early as sin in the morning, at least in his mind. He had no reason to believe that this girl could be using her powers to cause a slight difference in his normally somewhat more leveled persona. Still smiling he stuck his hand out, "I'm Julian Keller, also known as Scion, nice to meet you!"
He nodded slightly at the jet lag thing, he was quite used to fixing it because of his family's lifestyle growing up. Being in Tokyo one day, Paris the next, the back home to LA was rather commonplace when you're the son of the founder and CEO of a multi-billion dollar empire. Pondering on it for a moment he spoke aloud, "I can't remember the last time I was jet lagged, but the first impressions are always important, so you're definitely on your way to that. It's nice to get another member too!"

Okay...this guy was a bit happy already, she didn't think she'd even need to use her pheromone but it was still a comfort to have it there, when she had nothing in her appendix she felt a niggling sensation in her belly that felt a little bit like hunger. She supposed it was a little survival mechinism so she always had a pheromone ready and stored.
When he put out his hand for a handshake the mutant paused for a moment before then shaking his hand gently...she wasn't really used to shaking hands, never really had to do it that often. "Katie Stevens...and..uh well I don't have a nickname yet...but you need them, yeah?"

Yawning once again, Julian chuckled slightly while yawning, making it a weird sort of strangled sounding laugh. He couldn't help but roll his eyes at himself at that, "Sorry about that, I'm not used to seeing this time of morning like this, but yeah if you wanna fight with the rest of us in saving the world, and all that cool stuff." waving his hand has if to say it goes on and on, the blue eyed telekinetic smiles once again. "So what can you do? Maybe I can help you pick a codename?"
Grinning, the young man neglected to mention that his codename had nothing whatsoever to do with his own powers. Being an heir had nothing to do with his telekinesis. But it'd be fun to pretend for a couple moments, even if it was just a little white lie. "My power is to create scions." Winking Julian had to fight to keep from bursting out in laughter at the implication of what that power really was. He'd have to commit this one to memory for future use. Making Scions as a power. Awesome.

Scion...Scion...she couldn't quite remember what that meant, after all it was hardly a word used in regular conversation. He seemed like the sort of person who liked to joke though...even at such an unreasonable time in the morning.
SHe wasn't sure if she should tell him what her powers were...after all people tended to get suspicious if they found out that with a thought you could control their emotions...but eventually someone would find out, in a school of mutants she was sure someone had a 'i know what your power is' power...so she shrugged and said "I brew Pheromones in my apendix...so I guess I can be the school's pick me up, feelin' down and you come to me I can make you all happy again...and on the flip side I guess if we're going to be 'saving the day' I can also make people trying to get at us feel all depressed and afraid"

There was never an unreasonable time in the morning to make a joke, in the young Hellions' mind. In fact, the morning was best because it was so early people tended to be delirious at the time, either from just waking or staying up excessively late. Whichever, the laughs were always free flowing at that point and everyone wasn't totally the person that they usually were during the more reasonable hours of the day. It was a fun paradox that someone that was usually uptight could be a grinning laughing fool in the morning. Julian, however, was usually a laughing fool so he was simply more of a prankster.
Grinning once again the telekinetic leaned in and whispered conspiratorially, "Well, if you'd like I'd make a scion with you anytime!" winking saucily he was way too amused by this joke for it to be normal. He also wasn't particularly worried about the girl using her powers on him. His mentor was one of the most powerful telepaths in the world. She could make him do anything, one just had to have faith in the ethics of a mutant to not use their powers for ill on one another unless they've got no choice but to do so. "In all actuality, I'm really a telekinetic, but well, I can make scions just fine as well." He chuckled and leaned against the wall and asked, "So why classes are you taking?"

Okay...was he flirting with her? Katherine smirked, they really didn't mess around here did they? well she supposed there was no harm in returning the favour...after all when on a night out she flirted with guys to get free drinks and just for funsies...hell she even flirted with girls if the situation was right. It didn't mean it had to go anywhere and Katherine was certain she wasn't throwing herself in to a 'thing' right now anyhow.
She let out some of her happiness pheromones, now a little bit disappointed she didn't have some lust ones..she did love watching people squirm when they were effected by it but didn't want to show it. She smirked "Who knows, I might take you up on that....Scion offer. But for now I'm just taking the normal stuff, y'know...Maths....English...Science, that kinda stuff..."
