The Rp~~ [Toulouse Academy of Refinement~Year 2]

L and axels gaze met and he cracked another rare smile. "I'm afraid the nature of the assignments are confidential but it will test your control over your powers as well as your street smarts and ability to think on your feet. "

"Well Techniqully I'm not up because I'm very stuck to this chair." He said with a smile before looking up and jen. "This is Jen, a friend of mine." He looked back at Winnie his smile fading slightly. "She was part of the gym incident."
 
"O-oh..." Jen supposed that Winnie wouldn't have remembered their nameless meeting when Akio had first been placed in the infirmary and Winnie had read Akio's letter. There were more important things on her mind then, she thought with a trace of bitterness that was very unusual for her. She glanced at Akio with surprise when he decided to introduce her and she flinched slightly when he mentioned the 'gym incident'. "You don't have to talk to me..." She said quietly.
 
Winnie nodded at Akio before studying Jen. She looked familiar. "Why wouldn't I talk to you? Any friend of Akio's is a friend of mine. " she said matter-of-factly. "Cool name by the way. Anyway, what's up you two? Must suck, that wheelchair, but knowing you you'll be walking in no time. Especially if this young lady keeps helping you. "

"As long as I don't strain myself yet for awhile. My muscles aren't healed yet it seems, so what mad science experiment are you trying to run." He said with a smirk.
 
Alex frowned a bit and shook her head. "You lost me at control over my powers. I know how to control my emotions for the most part and I lived on the streets for most of my life so I know how to make something out of nothing. If I go somewhere for a so-called field trip, I'm not doing anything but enjoying myself," she said before straightening up and walking out of the kitchen and back upstairs. She changed rather quickly and brushed her hair out, letting it fall in natural waves before doing her makeup and going back downstairs.
 
Axel leaned back in his chair, "then I guess that means we aren't going, L. " L nodded and began cleaning up with axels help. They were in the middle of doing dishes when Alex returned.


Winnie chuckled a bit. "Oh just something for Mr. Connor. It's very...mad. " she smiled and put away the last of her paperwork and then began picking up the trash on the ground.

He raised a eyebrow. "Something for Connor?" He didn't question further, he trusted her about what she was doing but now he wondered what the hell Connor wanted. Meanwhile Winnie would feel another presence on their connection, darkening it as he watched. Akio 2
 
Alex sat down silently and laid her hands in her lap as she looked down. She soon became lost in her own thoughts as she zoned out. It wasn't long before she finally came back to reality and looked up, yawning softly. "Sorry," she finally said though she wasn't sure if it was for yawning or saying no to the trip.
 
"Oh, you don't have to do that, I can help." Jen said, quickly hurrying to help Winnie pick up the trash on the ground. She didn't want to interrupt the two's conversation with her own words, so she just stayed quiet as she helped clean up. She didn't want to come between the two... especially giving their relationship.
 
Winnie stiffened when Jen came to help her but didn't say anything, deciding she wasn't a threat. But Winnie watched her carefully while feeling her mind darken. She didn't like it and quickly strengthened her walls. "Careful, Akio. " she said quietly. "And yes, he's asked me to do some research and apply it to those animals. "


Axel shrugged, "it is no problem. But we need to figure out what we would like to do. " he said to her while drying and putting away dishes. L listened quietly but made no comment.

Akio noticed and pushed him away but Akio 2 seemed amused and... Triumphant. Akio mouthed a sorry. "So animals? Why animals."
 
"I'm all for going to a different country but I don't want to do anything but relax if I do. Dealing with my powers is enough stress and I don't want to deal with more," Alex said truthfully as she watched the two, slightly surprised she had a say.
 
Axel nodded, "that's fine. I just think it would be a nice experience since the school is trying to help you to take care of yourself. Even if you've already learned some things. I won't be there all the time, Alex, try as I might. " 'just like i wasn't there for my son.' Axel though to himself while putting up the skillet. L nodded in agreement with him though by their stature and tone of voice, it was obvious they weren't pressing her to do anything and was giving their opinion in a non confrontational way.


Winnie raised her eyebrows at Akio a bit. "Cause I didn't want to experiment on humans....yet. "

Jen stiffened slightly at the mention of human experimentation. Quickly finishing up the cleaning she was doing, she threw out the trash and regained her position by Akio's wheelchair, keeping her gaze on the ground and her mouth shut. It wasn't any of her business and she didn't want to intrude.
 
"You think I don't know that? That I don't know how much if a threat and a danger I am. I'm not stupid. I've learned everything I know without that damn school and I'm not putting myself through that again. I'm not letting some crooked bastard put me through some near death experience just so I can learn what I already know. I've read my files over and over again. I'm a danger. My best bet is to keep my feeling under control which I already know and I don't need anyone else telling me that. The only one of them that knows just as much about me as I do is Akio and that's because he went behind my back and read things that no one was supposed to know and I still haven't forgiven him for that. I'm not going back," Alex said defensively before growing silent and looking down, feeling herself on the verge of tears.
 
Axel sighed, "Alex not once did we call you stupid. And controlling and bottling up your feelings isn't healthy and you shouldn't shut yourself off from others just because you assume you're a danger. No one thinks you are a danger to anyone but yourself with that line of thinking. And you don't know what the class wold be teaching you because you don't know everything. Even L is participating and she knows more than you but she still sees the value of new experiences. Don't go back, that's your choice. I'm not going to force you to do something you don't want to do."

"Yeah well obviously I'm not her. And just like not once did either of you call me stupid, not once did I way I knew everything. I know everything about my past and I don't want to be reminded of it!" Alex said, her voice raising with each word. She slammed her glass of water down on the table and abruptly stood up. She turned and walked out without another word, going upstairs and slamming the bedroom door behind her.
 
L watched Axel while he worked for a bit. "....you two won't make it. " Axel sent her a look and L shrugged, "what? I'm just telling you what I see. Now, we'll leave Sunday to head back that way we travel with the students. " Axel nodded. "Might as well begin thanksgiving for the prat. " L muttered to herself while her and Axel began the taxing process of cooking a traditional American thanksgiving dinner.

Akio nodded. "I doubt its anything too Connor-ish if you agreed to work on it." He said with a smile. Then as quickly as flipping a light switch Akio froze and the connection darkened for a second before clearing and Akio looked shocked.
 
Winnie's face scrunched up in confusion."what the heck is going on with you?" She asked Akio. "But no, it's not too bad. I'd actually like you as a test subject once I move into that stage. " Winnie watched him wearily then glanced to Jen. "And don't shut yourself up, you aren't invisible. Just because you're helping Akio doesn't mean you need to fade into the background. "

Alex took her shoes off and threw each of them at the door, pleased with the loud bang that they each made. She walked to the window and opened the curtains as she watched it suddenly start pouring rain. She hugged herself tightly as she felt herself lift off the ground.
 
For a moment it seemed like he didn't hear her before he said obviously trying to keep his voice level. "Yeah, I might be able to do that." He said looking up only for a moment and for some reason his eyes seemed hurt. "Jen can we go." He said his voice softer.
 
Jen started as she realized Winnie had spoken to her. "O-oh, You don't have to worry about me." She gave the other girl a soft smile. "I don't want to intrude on your conversation. Besides... I don't know what you're talking about so it would be rude of me to say something." Then she glanced down at Akio as he spoke to her. "Of course, if you're sure you're done." She said with a small smile.
 
Winnie was a bit confused at the look in his eyes but shrugged and gaze a small wave. "Okay, see you two at dinner. "


The adults looked up and L glared, shouting up, •You are a guest in this house! Ruin your own bloody door!" Before continuing to boil potatoes.
