We have added a few things to the requirements to power and ability upgrades. Be sure and read the details in the most recent update when you request a new power / upgrade.
Well, its the weekend here at MHS. Wouldn't it be great if all schools started on a Friday for the first day of school. What a way to start off. You get a weekend right after your first day. Well, this is because we are done with the first day of class. How so you ask. As you only went to one class. yes, but I am sure that doing the same thing for each class would get boring. So the one class you experienced is basically how all the classes are going to be.
Teacher posts role. Day gets started, end of class happens, everyone goes to their next class, or home..
Well, ezboard still hasn't confirmed anything on a final date when everything is changed over to Yuku. And we are working on what to do next. We all want user friendliness after everything is changed away from Ezbaord, and we are trying everything we can to ensure that we have just that when we are at a new board hosting site.
We have a guest book. Take a look. If you haven't taken a look yet, be sure and do so. ^_^

Yakoutio stepped down off of the book and glanced around the room nervously, he had made this girl cry for a very silly reason. Various things entered his mind, mostly that this girl must have had some psychiatric problem. That was a shame as she had been so nice and normal up until she reacted to a simple book exploding in the weirdest of ways. Yakoutio patted her shoulder, he looked incredibly freaked out over what was going on.
“Come on… it’s not that bad…” Yakoutio said uneasily, “It was only a book.”
He took another step back and patted her shoulder one last time before making it to a good distance away from her, so he could still talk but be out of arms length in case she went violent.
Re: EEEEEP!!!!
Hawthorne didn't respond much to the boys words, but an involuntary shudder went through her each time his hand made contact with her shoulder. Other than that, she was quite catatonic. The tears more a reaction to the squeezing shut of her eyes than anything else.
It wasn't Hawthorne's fault, she just expected herself to be the next thing blown up. She remembered how it worked from the years she lived with her ex-boyfriend. First he demonstrated how strong and manly he was on some object, to get her attention. He loved to see her squirm, knowing that she'd be the target of his next assault. Her defense mechanisms were so high after living in that hell hole.
It would have been less scary for her if Yaky was a girl . . .
Re: EEEEEP!!!!
Yakoutio felt really bad, she was crying and nothing would make her stop, he sat down on the ground in front of her and watched her. Tears were wetting her cheeks so he took a piece of paper and wiped them off with it, it wasn’t as good as a tissue but Yaky didn’t really carry around tissues with him. He would put the piece of paper down and watch her, she twitched every time he touched her and he didn’t really want to make her twitch but he wasn’t someone to just stand by and watch someone cry without some form of contact. He slid over to her a little bit and, slowly, uneasily wrapped his arms around her.
“Don’t worry.” He tried to say comfortingly, “It’s only a book.”
He really didn’t know what to say, he was so use to him being the one who was crying that when someone else did it he was too shocked for words. Though most people just hugged him so that was what he would do in this case.
Re: EEEEEP!!!!
The total lack of control for her emotions had the one effect Hawthorne hated more than anything. As Yakutio's arm went around Hawthorne's shoulders, a manky, mildewy, tatty stuffed llama doll appeared in her arms. It was a greyish-brown colour, though at the seams (those that were still intact, and not leaking stuffing), you could tell it had once been yellow. One eye was missing all together, and the other was hanging by a few threads, pointing in Yaky's direction.
Desperate for any kind of comfort at that moment, Hawthorne cuddled the disgusting little toy, and, barely registering who was holding her, she snuggled deeper into the boy's embrace. With her nose buried within the few hairs left on the doll's head Hawthorne mumbled, barely audible.
"Make the violence stop Lily."
It wasn't common for a teenage girl to call out to her dead baby sister at a time of trauma. Then again, Hawthorne had hardly led a normal life.
Re: EEEEEP!!!!
Yakoutio was spinning out, lots and lots of questions were filling his mind and there was no way he could answer them. But he knew one person who could, he closed his eyes and focused on him. He would talk but only for this once.
“What’s going on? Where did that llama come from?” Yakoutio thought to himself. “It’s her power.” Pytho’s voice returned in an echo across Yakoutio’s mind, “And a strange one indeed.” “Well… make her stop crying.” Yakoutio thought again to reply to this. “I cannot, my people skills are sub par.” Pytho replied, still within Yakoutio’s mind. “Okay then I’ll do it.” Yakoutio replied in his thought.
Yakoutio didn’t let go of Hawthorne, his eyes glanced down towards the stuffed llama, it was looking at him. If that thing had some sort of freaky psychic power he would not be amused. And who was Lily, was it the llama? Yakoutio hoped it was the llama and not an invisible person instead. He really hated invisible people.
“Calm down Hawthrone.” He said, hoping she would, “Please?”
Re: EEEEEP!!!!
Finally Hawthorne got her emotions under control, she still had tears running down her face, but she wasn't as bad as she had been before. She whiped her nose on the stuffed llama, before eyeing it in disgust.
"Why do you always show up to make me look that much dumber?"
She tossed the ugly thing over her shoulder, before focusing her attention on Yakoutio. There was really no way for her to casually shrug this one off, she had gone down right potty, and she had no excuse for it. Well, at least she had no excuse that she was willing to share, anyhow. She smiled apologetically, whiping the last of her tears off on the back of her hand.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to come of as psychotic or anything . . . I truly do apologize."
She was horribly embarassed, and she sincerely hoped she wouldn't have to be in class with anyone who had witnessed that terrible scene. That would make her want to die even more than she did now. She was very carefully looking around, pretty much sizing up her chances of vacating the premesis in the near future. She wasn't trying to run away, she was just evaluating the likelihood of a strategic retreat.
Re: EEEEEP!!!!
Yakoutio stared at Hawthorne in utter confusion, too many things had just happened and he couldn’t understand what the heck had just gone on. He slowly released her and pointed towards the stuffed llama then to her and then to the stuffed llama again.
“What…? What…? How…? What…?” He stammered, “What was that all about?”
Yakoutio tried to breath calmly, he needed to keep his cool otherwise she might start crying again. He still remained crouched down in front of her; he raised his head and this time looked at her with calm eyes. He really wanted to know what was going on but he didn’t want to pry.
“Don’t worry about it, I normally cry sometimes myself.” He said with a smile.
Re: EEEEEP!!!!
Hawthorne took a deep breath. It was true, after subjecting him to her hysterics, she really owed him an explanation for it all. She wasn't sure where to start though. After a fairly lengthy, awkward pause, she made an attempt though.
"I . . . I'm still dealing with some issues, I was sent here to try to distance myself from them so that I could heal a bit."
She looked back at the mangy toy, lying in a heap in the corner. It looked forlorn and forgotten, kinda sad actually. Oh well.
"As for that," she turned back to Yakoutio, "it kinda just appears when I'm upset. I'm not exactly sure how or why, but it does."
A lot of the expression had left Hawthorne's face. It was one of her coping mechanisms. You can feel it, but you can't share it. So she tried to impress a sense of calm around herself. She didn't want everyone to think she was insane, whether that was the case or not. She was starting to feel like it though.
Re: EEEEEP!!!!
Yakoutio listened to this girls story and truthfully it spoke to him, she reminded him of him when he first came to this school. After his father had did what he did to Yakoutio he had spent various times freaking out or doing other various weird things, it was a bad time for him and there was really only one thing that helped. Yakoutio smiled and got up slightly to lean over and grab at the llama, lifting it up in front of him and resting it on the floor between them. It was a weird thing, but all things like that had their own special qualities, which was what made them so adorable.
“I’ll tell you what.” Yakoutio said as he reached into his jacket pocket, “There is one way you and I could cope together but you have to promise not to tell anyone if you join me.”
He kept his hand in his pocket, yeah it was there, he always kept the small metal tin on him but the thought that he might loose it was a scary one. He leaned closely towards the girl and looked at her with a serious expression on his face.
Re: EEEEEP!!!!
Hawthorne didn't know what to make of this boy, with his intensity and loud behaviour, but if he understood what she felt like . . . and wasn't bothered by the oddity of the llama . . . perhaps it was worth giving him a chance, rather than cave to the lump of dislike and distrust mounting within her. She nodded her head, still a little unsure.
"I'd like to not be so screwed up, and if you have some way of coping that I haven't tried yet . . . I'll join you."
She exhaled the breath that she hadn't known she'd been holding. There, she had done it.
Yakoutio smiled and quickly grabbed her hand and lead her towards one of the library isles, he didn’t pull her as he didn’t want to upset her or scare her, he just led her across the library as he ducked down low so nobody could see them. When he came to the isle he sat down in the centre of it, looking from side to side so nobody could see them. When he was sure nobody was watching he reached into his pocket and took out a small metal boiled sweets tin and placed it on the floor in front of her, he opened the lid carefully making sure not to spill any of the contents. Inside were a few rollup long cigarettes, handmade by Yakoutio this morning.
“What you do is you put one in your mouth and light the end then breath in and everything bad goes away for a little while, then you just take another one.” He explained happily, “Though you got to pay and they cost a lot and you need to know where to get them but don’t worry I’ll give you one for free.”
He lifted one of the long cigarettes out of the tin and held it up for Hawthorne to take, he didn’t know how she would react but it would help if she tried.
Re: EEEEEP!!!!
She allowed herself to be led away by the boy, rather docile as was her custom when someone else took charge. She was kinda scared, but his gentleness comforted her a bit, until he pulled out the tin. She knew what it was before he opened it, and was frightened. She just allowed his explanation to wash over her, his soothing, pleasant tones taking her back into her past a bit.
Hawthorne wasn't sure how to react, never having been a smoker. Her ex used to all the time, and that was always when he was his nicest, it was the pills that made him angry . . . she might as well give it a try. After all, this was a world that she knew, one she was very familiar with. It was such an easy pattern to slip into, just drift away on a cloud of apathy, accept that whole person again . . .
So, despite her better judgement Hawthorne nodded and accepted the long cigarette from Yakoutio. She was still very unsure about all of this, after all, she knew her fair share about drugs. She knew a few very important people would be very upset with her if she got caught . . . still . . .
"Thanks. Do you do this a lot?"
She waited for him to light his first, fishing a lighter out of one of her pockets. She always kept one, habit from dating a drug dealer I guess. She took a long draw on the cigarette, choking and coughing a bit since she was unused to the action, or the smoke in her lungs. Still, she felt her nerves settle almost immediately, and smiled shyly at the boy.
Re: EEEEEP!!!!
Yakoutio took a drag out of his own and watched with a smile as Hawthorne did the same, it was good that she was smoking with him though something inside of him made him feel a little bad and he didn’t quite know why. This thought was washed out of his mind when a sensation of light-headedness rose up over his body emptying him of most feelings. He giggled a little bit causing smoke to come out of his mouth with each exhale though afterwards he didn’t really know what he was laughing at. He wiped his face with his hand before taking the rollup out of his mouth and holding it in his hand, flicking the ash to the floor.
“Okay we got to go outside.” Yakoutio said in a very chilled out tone of voice as he smiled happily at Hawthorne, “If the teachers catch us with ice we’re fucking fucked.”
Yakoutio laughed at this before standing up and picking up the tin with him, closing it and putting it back into his pocket before pulling Hawthorne up slowly, a bit forcefully but he didn’t really mind for now. He walked forwards towards the fire escape and tapped Hawthorne on the shoulder before taking a few steps backwards towards the fire escape, nodding at her to gesture her to follow him outside.
Re: EEEEEP!!!!
Hawthorne processed what he said very fuzzily, not really understanding what "ice" was. Still, even her foggy brain understood that teachers catching them with this stuff was a very bad idea. She winced a bit when he laughed, still understanding that drugs and a laughing male were a bad idea, just not remembering quite why anymore.
Yakoutio's forceful tug on her arm brought Hawthorne to her feet with the ease of pulling a ragdoll around. She offered no resistance at all, knowing subconsciously that it was a bad idea. She nearly flinched when he tapped her shoulder, but didn't. Subconsciously she was trying to make him the most content possible, offering no resistance and following along with his every suggestion promptly.
It was such an easy transition, from angry teen to mindless little puppet, and she had done it so many times before that she didn't even realize she was doing it. It was natural. She did it with her alcoholic mother, she had definitely done it with her drug-abusing boyfriend. Now she was doing it for this boy, allowing him absolute control over her at a moments notice. He could have told her to do just about anything right now and she would have.
Still, a little nagging thought at the back of her mind reminded her that other people were watching her now. What would Jun-Bo say if he saw her soothing her pain chemically? He would most likely be disappointed in her. But . . . she couldn't just say no to a male, especially when Yakoutio was being all dominant like that. It went against her nature.

Re: EEEEEP!!!!
Yakoutio pushed on the handle for the fire exit and stepped outside, he was suddenly hit with a wave of cold air chilling him down but he didn’t really mind seeing as the library was so hot anyway. He pulled Hawthorne out as well and allowed the door to close but allowed it to rest ajar in case they wanted to get back inside. Yakoutio put the rollup against his lips and took another toke, a larger one than before, he then took the rollup out of his mouth and held the smoke inside of him leaving it within him for a few seconds before breathing out again. It was warming, one of the reasons why he kept with this habit. He raised his hand up to his face and rubbed across it as he began to giggle a little again though stopped shortly afterwards, his hand kept rubbing down along his face though until he dropped it back down to his side.
“Oh that’s a wonderful sensation.” Yakoutio said in relief, “Try holding the smoke inside for a while it gives you such a rush.”
He put the rollup back up against his lips and took another toke, he continued drawing down so the ash grew and grew until finally he pulled the rollup away from his lips and flicked the ash to the floor. He kept the smoke inside of his body and waited for Hawthorne to do the same.
Re: EEEEEP!!!!
Hawthorne allowed herself to be pulled out of the building, standing beside the giggling Yakoutio. She wasn't quite sure what was so funny, but was sure he would eventually let her in on the joke.
Following the short boy's lead, she took another drag on the joint, holding it in. She tried to hold it in as long as Yakoutio did, but she just couldn't do it. The sensation of smoke in her lungs was just too unfamiliar for the girl. She started coughing again, letting all the smoke rush out into the air. Her eyes started to water, and she blinked furiously.
"This stuff is killer, man. I feel like I'm suffocating."
She rubbed at her eyes, her forehead felt itchy, and heavy. As if it was trying to collapse in on itself. She rubbed a little more furiously, trying to contain the unfamiliar sensations. Her whole body felt overloaded, so she just kinda plopped down to the ground, completely lacking in grace of any kind. She looked up at Yakoutio, brow furrowed in perplexation.
Re: EEEEEP!!!!
Yakoutio breathed out the smoke and smiled afterwards, he loved the feeling it caused more than most feelings in the world, he felt so relieved and happy right now, something he didn’t really want brought down. His attention turned towards Hawthorne who was on the floor now complaining about her head being heavy. She had coughed out the smoke, clearly not use to smoking before, which was normal, Yakoutio couldn’t really figure out why she complained about her head feeling heavy though as it didn’t really look heavy. He sat down on the floor next to her and stared at her head for a while before finally saying something.
“You don’t look heavy…” He said finally, “Don’t smoke it too fast then I guess… Ice… Crystal Meth, is a weird thing… And it lasts for about eighteen hours.”
Yakoutio put his rollup back into his mouth and took another toke before stubbing the butt out on the ground, he then held it up into the air next to them and created an energy sphere in his hand which disintegrated it in a small flash of light. He didn’t want anyone finding the remains.
“Give me yours after you’re done with it so I can destroy it too okay?” He asked, “And slow down if you’re feeling heavy headed…”
Yakoutio smiled and giggled again before rubbing the side of his face afterwards like before.
Re: EEEEEP!!!!
Hawthorne rolled her head around on her shoulders, from one side to another, and suddenly began giggling. Her head didn't look heavy! She took a final drag off the joint and handed the roach to Yakoutio. Then she rolled her head around again, giggling the whole while.
"It feels heavy like a bowling ball. If I stand up . . . I might fall down."
Her voice came out sounding giddy and childish. She tipped over backwards and laid out on the ground, stretching like a cat in the sunshine. She was delisciously warm, and felt rather . . . free all of a sudden. She giggled again. She liked this ice of Yakoutio's, it made the whole world seem all better. Maybe Jun-Bo wouldn't mind it, since it made her feel so happy. She leaned her head over towards Yakoutio.
"You're a nice boy. I didn't think I was going to like you, with the explosions and stuff, but you're good."
She nodded her head, giggled again, and laid her head in his lap, looking up at his face.
Re: EEEEEP!!!!
((ooc: sorry it took a while to get back to this thread but I busy been lately sorry ^^; )
Yakoutio looked down at Hawthorne and giggled again, he rubbed his face with his hand again to stop the small amounts of pain that were spreading up his face, he didn’t really mind them but a small part of him knew this situation would be better if they weren’t there. He thought as to the answer of the question, that was an incredibly hard question to answer and had Yakoutio been in a good state of mind he would have lied however he was unfortunately not and so his attention was turned towards how to answer this question rather than how to lie to get around it.
“England.” Yakoutio said simply, “Someone gives me them in there.”
Yakoutio had no idea why that answer made sense in his mind, he was actually trying to explain that the English government gave them to him in return for the use of his body for various chemical experiments but that was much too complex to explain right now. There were a lot of things he was overlooking right now, for starters she had put her head in his lap, which normally would have made him a little grossed out, but he didn’t really care right now. He tossed the remains of her rollup and threw it into the air, flicking his fingers and sending a small shard of energy up into it causing for it to be disintegrated as the shard carried up into the sky and disappeared with a small twinkle.
“There are loads more than just this.” Yakoutio said, “If you came with me to the shattered blessing I could give you this one that makes everything just magical, so pretty.”
Re: EEEEEP!!!!
((s'okay. Things happen, and I'm patient.))
Hawthorne wasn't sure why Yakoutio kept rubbing his face, but she thought it was funny, so she reached up and rubbed the side he hadn't, giggling like a moron. He had a comfy lap for sitting in, but she was getting dizzy looking at the clouds, 'cuz they were running around awfully fast. Carefully, since her head was so heavy, she sat up again, so that she could listen to Yakoutio talk. He had gone all the way to England to get them?
"Cool. England. I didn't know that's how far you had to go. My old boyfriend used to sell stuff like this . . . well, I guess he prolly still does sell them, it's just he's not my boyfriend, y'know?" She was confusing herself, so she stopped talking.
Hawthorne watched the little display with the ciggy end with a furrowed brow. The sparkly lights were so pretty. She clapped and giggled, giving Yakoutio a quick sitting down hug. She liked fireworks. She was sure of it! She rubbed her forehead, smoothing out the wrinkles, and giggled again. She was having a whole lotta fun.
"Hmmm . . . I like pretty. And magic too! My old boyfriend used to have this really cool stuff . . . and I took it, just once. It made the couch melt into talking blue fishes! It was so cool!"
