Thoughts

Dirk had finished his retake, and had left his dorm to visit the grounds. He hadn't had much time to explore and wanted to get a firmer grasp on his surroundings. Leaving with a his phone he left the dorm and began to wander aimlessly.

The grounds themselves were set up oddly, Derse on the west but Prospit to the east, it was almost poetic he guessed, but why separate students like that? What purpose did it serve? The grounds themselves were well kept but looked like that of a normal university, sidewalks and a little flower thing, a few benches, it was nice. Normal. And even though there wasn't many students here, it was nice to not have to stress over his abilities. Or at least stress over them less.

But the dorms why where they separated like that? If it was to separate recipients of specific generations of sopor, he and Dave despite being twins had received two different generations, would be in separate dorms, but here they were in the same dorm. He'd only met Jake from the prospit dorms, but he wasn't to extraordinary, nothing that stuck out as 'must be separated' neither did Roxy.

Lost in his thoughts on the topic he didn't notice he'd stopped in the middle of the path way looking at his feet until someone knocked into his shoulder.

The Horrors of ‘studying’.

Dave nods. “That’s cool. You see, if it were me, I wouldn’t give a Shit. But then again it’s an AP course…Actually maybe I would do the same.” He thought it over to himself. “Nah, I’d probably curse them out for Fucking it up. I worked hard for a test like that.” He huffed. “Good thing I only stick to honors, AP is too much.”

[dirkstridersau]

Dirk shrugged,“Sure but when I go to college my fives on all my AP tests will get me there faster then your Honors credit.” he said finding the keys and leaving the pump room. “But it’s English, it’ll be easy,” he said turning the corner right into a mole man. “God damnit!”

[fantastic-stroodle-blog]

“Yeah but honors is easier dude. You don’t want to overdo it. It’s like you put a huge bundle of fish bait on your hook only to catch one small fish. Don’t try too hard if you don’t need to. That’s what I say.” He continued to stand behind Dirk, watching the screen. It’s probably better to play this game when Dave was there with Dirk.

[dirkstridersau]

Dirk shrugged as he restarted, "Honors maybe easier but it defiantly wont' get me a universal college credit. And I've made straight fives on every AP test since ninth grade." He said. He studied hard, often stayed up all night went to class only to repeat the process. He took the AP Chemistry test hyped up on caffeine. He wanted to be the best, and would have passed that on the first try had he not wigged out and almost killed two other students. Ability is to energy. And synthetic caffeinated energy tended to bit him in the ass and fry anyone in a ten foot radius. Needless to say, he wasn't allowed three coffees and two and a half monsters before stressful situations anymore.

Dirk was studying notes, notes he needed for the English III AP test. They were mostly little reminders, things he needed in his essay, things he’d forget if he didn’t have, he was very precise in note taking. It was studying he wasn’t precise in. Though he passed the AP test his digital score couldn’t be used despite his score of a near perfect five. Only missing two problems.

He had cruel clocks playing, the Juby Phonic English lyrics. He was learning Japanese but still had issues organizing grammar. When the door was knocked on he sighed thinking it was Dave and he forgot his key despite Dirk telling him he needed it cause he would not let him in.

Walking to the door he pushed it open the look of older brother by five minutes gone at the sight of the girl in front of him,“Uh…May I help you?” He asked unsure if she was just wandering for a new friend or just lost.

[roxayylalonde-blog]

Roxy made a small surprised noise when the door had opened, still somehow not having expected it to happen. She recovered though and gave the guy standing there a smile as she shifted her weight between her feet, unsure about this now that someone had actually answered the door.

“Uh, kinda, maybs. Tee bee hch I just wanted to check out the other students on Derse, cuz it’d be hella weird only being friends with my roommate and stuff, so I figure, whatevs, let’s go for it and decided to see if anyone else was busy or not. If latter, it’d be hella if we could try to chat or smth?”

Honestly, Roxy was expecting the guy to say no, maybe even just shut the door in her face without an answer. She wouldn’t even be surprised. But she was hoping this wouldn’t be for naught, the guy didn’t look too bad on the outside. That was definitely a thing she just thought. Welp.

[dirkstridersau]

Dirk nodded,"Uh, why don't you come in?" He asked the girl was very pretty, he wasn't blind to that, but she seemed kind. "I'm Dirk by the way." he said, he wasn't short maybe five seven and hair that was clearly bottle blond if the half an inch of black roots were anything to tell by.

"Sure we can uh, chat if you want. " He said smiling faintly.

[dirkstridersau]

Dirk shrugged, "Yeah, but with honors I don't get the college credit." He explained. He started the game again playing through it until he reached the boiler room. Randomized games were so much better then regular games.

(Derse Students Only!)

After having settled into her own dorm and made sure her roommate wouldn’t be too much of a hassle, Roxy figured she might as well try to explore campus. Well, that was the original plan she had in mind before she discovered that she had literally no sense of direction whatsoever.

Baby steps, Roxy told herself, checking to make sure she had her keys as she left her dorm, avoiding the other students who still seemed to be settling into their own places. Well, that gave her an idea; she could check out the other people in the building.

She slipped her way between the others, still with gum in her mouth from earlier, and glanced at some of the doors. The first one she walked by didn’t have anyone in it, and the second had a couple students bickering inside. She moved right along.

Roxy blinked as she stopped at one of the doors. She could hear some noise behind it. She figured she might as well and rapped her knuckles against the door, standing to the side as she waited for someone to answer.

Whoops. He had been found out. What an unfortunate and totally unpredictable happenstance. “Oh! Oh, oh golly gee, I’m sorry. I was just, bored?? And I started drawing you and I hope to god I haven’t offended you in any way and-”

Jake was cut off by a loud shushing from the teacher, who had heard his flustered and rushed rant. Several other students turned to look at him as well, and if he hadn’t been blushing before, he definitely was now. From sheer embarrassment, obviously. (This sucked.)

Mouth pressed into a thin line, he pointedly looked back at his paper, but the only thing to look at on it was the drawing of the guy next to him. Great. Just great. Jake scribbled a quick message onto the sheet, ‘Really though! I offer up my most sincere apologies over this shitstorm.’ and passed over to the boy, staring at a very engaging spot on the ceiling all the while. 

[dirkstridersau]

Dirk snorted out a soft laugh at the flustered rant. At least he was honest. When other students turned their way he returned a neutral look of indifference. 

When he recieved the note he scrawled back. It’s fine. But seriously,  a picture last longer and is a better ref because it doesn’t move. He passed the note back and waited a reply copying notes while he waited. 

[thisblogisdeadyeet]

This guy did make a good point; stationary refs were, for lack of a better word, stationary. But there were some virtues towards using a live model as well, and he made sure to take note of them in his reply. 

‘Yes i suppose you do have a point there! However its far easier to take stock of dimensions when working with picture that isnt two dimensional. If you dont mind perhaps i could borrow you after class for a demonstration of sorts? I hope i dont sound strange or anything but id love to try and finish the piece or even make something even more elaborate out of it!’

Question of the day: Was Jake hitting on this guy? If he was, it was completely unintentional. But who knooooooooows.

[dirkstridersau]

Dirk felt his lips twitch in a slight smile, he scrawled back, 'Can't argue there. Sure, I have a free period any way.' He passed the note back and turned his attention somewhat to the bored.

Was Jake hitting on him? He wasn't sure but then again was it wise for Jake to do that? Well, he was here too,so surely that meant he was a danger to himself or others.

Dave continued to chuckle. “Dude I’ll be fine. It’s just a little shock. You don’t have to rile up your panties even more than they already are.” He explained, taking off his shoes and tossing them by his closet. He got into bed, relaxing onto it.

“So what if you have to start over, your have to start over at some point any way. I just made you do it sooner.” He smirks.

[dirkstridersau]

Dirk glared at him but grabbed his plush off the floor before plopping back down to his computer,“It’s randomly generated. I can’t just figure out a pattern and follow it like I can in other games.” he said starting off again. “But seriously, I could stop your heart if I hit you hard enough. How do I explain to bro the matchstick died scaring me.” He said turning left and backing away from the mole man. “I mean it’s not like I couldn’t try to resuscitate you but I doubt it’d work.”

[fantastic-stroodle-blog]

Dave leaned over Dirk, wrapping his arms around Dirk’s shoulders in a loose hug. “Dirky, I know you care but I’ll be fine. Trust me” He chuckled, wrapping his arms around a little bit tighter. “I know you’re in the zone right now but you wanna tell me how your day was or am I just going to sit here and wonder?”

[dirkstridersau]

Dirk found the generator room and grabbed the glowwstick,"It was fine. I have to retake the AP English three test from last year. My scores got lost in transit and some how they were deleted from the system." He explained,"But they're giving me the same test form and number. Just a new bubble sheet and essay." He said finding the pump room. Grabbing the keys he headed out to find the exit.

Dave couldn’t help but chuckle when Dirk screamed like a kid. Even if Dirk shocked him, it was so worth it. He backed up a bit after the first shock, continuing to chuckle even as his twin punched the air in front of his face.

“Hey now, You should’ve known I was here. A Strider is always on their guard you know. What if it was a murderer who waltzed in? I mean, that would be stupid, considering he’s going up against two freaks. And not just regular freaks, Strider freaks. We’ll give him a can of butt whooping.”

[dirkstridersau]

Worth the shock? Ohh Dirk was about to give him a shock alright,”Do you know how badly I could have hurt you or worse my computer?” He said. Of course he’d feel worse about hurting Dave then the crusty laptop he’d bought at a garage sale and repaired himself. 

“Plus I’ve died and have to start over.” He mumbled looking at the death screen as his corpse was dragged through the tunnels. “Because this is randomly generated with no save points.”

Jake English was ridiculously bored.

There were three problems with his current situation: One, the classroom’s AC was broken, and the heat was both mind numbing and terribly stifling. Two, he didn’t give a rat’s ass about the current subject material; history was dreadfully dull, and he had never understood the virtue in discussing the politics of old and dead men. Now, wars were a wholly different topic, and could get interesting on occasion! Unfortunately, the only war was the one on his attention span, and Jake was sorely losing that one.

Third and finally, the teacher’s voice was nothing more than a monotonous drone in the background of his head, and these three factors were doing a spectacular job at lulling him into a hazy stupor. But no! He would not fall asleep!! He would not fall asleep!!!

Normally, this is the part where he would fall asleep, good intentions notwithstanding, but for once, perseverance won out. Jake pinched his thigh hard, dull nails digging into his skin and leaving little pale marks. More importantly, the left a slightly higher sense of awareness in him. 

Mark him in for the land of the living! As well as the land of still really fucking bored. For a few minutes, he scanned the faces of his classmates, looking for anyone that he might recognize. Being new at the school was bad enough, but then again, everyone was new to this school. Still, when that was added in on top of his…memory issues, Jake found that he really didn’t know anyone? There was a girl who he was mostly sure was also in his dorm area. What was the name again? Profit? Prolapse? Forget it. 

Sitting in the desk about a foot away from him was a blond boy, scruffy haired and seemingly just as bored as himself. The teen looked vaguely familiar to Jake, as if he had seen him passing by in the halls? Who knows. Returning his attention to the (blank) piece of paper on which he was supposed to be taking notes, Jake decided to just ignore the purpose of this entire class for an entirely new objective. 

Drawing the mystery fellow next to him. Just some sketchy doodles, nothing fancy. The anatomy was a little out of proportion, and it was clear that Jake was just an amateur, but all in all, it could be worse. He glanced back at the other boy, just for reference, and went pale when he realized that the unnamed teen was staring straight at him. 

Shit.

[dirkstridersau]

Dirk had been determined to stay focused on one of his favorite subjects. But how can one focus when it’s a middle aged man, droning on and on and on about the neolithi revolution. We get it. New tools. First stone tools. First civilizations. eight thousand BC. Got it. Please. MOVE THE FUCK ON.  Nor could he focus with the feeling of being watched. He’d beeen cutting looks at the boy to his left. Curious about him. Until he noticed he kept looking at him. Frowning he placed his arm on his desk put his hand on his cheek and waited for him to look back up at him. 

When he did Dirk smirked,”You know, a picture last longer.” He winked behind his shades, though the motion was lost, he was going to try and unnerve the other one. 

[dirkstridersau]

The Horrors of ‘studying’.

Dirk hadn’t been studying for the past few hours. He’d gotten the game Vanish, and decided the best night to try and play was a friday night in his room alone. Dave had gone out and hadn’t come back yet, so if he screamed it couldn’t be held over his head. 

He was crouched in his desk chair his body hunched forward, a bright orange blanket covering his head, his four inch tall rainbow dash plush tucked under his arm. When he turned the corner and the mole man appeared he squeaked but didn’t make any other noise. 

He was supposed to be studying for a test, one he didn’t care if he passed or not, it was for English, but he’d forgone studying to buy the game from steam and try to beat it tonight. 

Randomly generated games were some of Dirk’s favorite, if for no other reason then the fact that he couldn’t discover a pattern and dissect it. Games like amnesia were fun for jumpscares, but eventually he’d find a pattern and win the game. Randomly generated games were good for hours of endless play. 

He turned the corner into the waterpump room, grabbing the glowsticks he set out for the generator room. 

[fantastic-stroodle-blog]

Dave hadn’t meant to burn the the kites. It just happened. For some odd reason, the other teens at the party thought it would be cool to bring kites and fly them out in the middle of the night. It was pretty fun till Dave got a hold of one and burned it on accident. Well actually not on accident, you wanted to see if it could continue to fly after it was set on fire.

It couldn’t.

He shrugged and wen home since everyone was scared of him after that. Whatever, He was exhausted anyway. So he went back to the school and to his dorm. He unlocked the door and closed it behind him. He looked around, noticing how dark it is. Is Dirk sleeping? He first thought till he saw the luminescent of the computer screen. He saw Dirk in front of the computer, playing a horror game.

Life is just handing him a Shit ton of rewards here, huh?

Dave walked over hands in pocket as he looked down at his twin. He smirks wide and placed his hands on Dirk’s shoulders. “Boo” He whispered.

[dirkstridersau]

Dirk hadn’t noticed his twin walked in. Nor would it have mattered if he had. 

A pair of hands came down upon his shoulders causing Dirk to let loose a shriek and releasing a small surge of electricity that most likely shocked Dave. 

Standing without a thought he turned fist raised in defensive a well placed right swing stopping inches from Dave’s face, small sparks coming of the bare knuckles.  “Are you fucking insane! You know better then to do that!” he snapped. He dropped his fist and flicked on the light. “Don’t do that.”

Cutting Class

[queen-meenah]

She looks up at the guy, rolling her eyes. “Sopor already fucked me up. For me, it was either jail or here. Smoking isn’t going to fuck me up any more, buoy.” She studied him carefully, looking at his dyed spiked blond hair and his shades, down to his outfit. He seemed to be one of those chick magnet types, but really was gay. He tried to look good, but a little too hard.

“Not sure how much it messed up you, but you’re here just like me. What’s your name?” She brushes her bangs away from her face, and proceeds to give him a cocky grin.

[dirkstridersau]

“Same as everyone else, I’m a risk to society so this is best for us and others until we can handle the side effects of the Sopor better.” He said quoting what Bro had told him. 

He was dressed down, a pair of black cargo pants and a orange t-shirt. Gay? Yes. But he didn’t flaunt it. Most didn’t know until he made it clear. 

“I’m Dirk. Your name?”

[queen-meenah]

Cutting Class

Meenah wasn’t completely sure why Skaia University was specifically catering to those who were affected by those Sopor vaccines, but once she saw how fucked up some of those students were, then she knew. At least she looked normal, even though she had piercings and looked like she belonged in a punk band.

Currently at that moment, she was people watching. Seeing who was dangerous and who wasn’t. Of course, they were all threats to human society, but some were more than others. She knew that she was going to stick out like a sore thumb soon, especially since she was already in therapy and on some sort of medicine to control her emotions.

By the way, she was skipping that therapy. She could never remember what happened, and she had better things to do, like scare the crap out of people. Slowly, she pulled out a cigarette, lit it,  then glared at the next person walking down the hallway.

[dirkstridersau]

Dirk was cutting class. True it was unlike him, but he was having to struggle with his emotions, he just felt, angry. And he didn’t know why. His alarm clock hadn’t gone off, but that wasn’t enough to make him pissed. 

But he knew how quick he was to lash out if someone pushed his buttons. So cutting class for today made sense. 

Catching sight of the girl smoking he made his way over,”You know, smoking those cause a lot more problems then sopor does.”

;; Dirk

[telekinaries-blog]

She blinked in surprise when she heard someone speak, especially someone that didn’t seem to sound dead. Really, with the lack of human presence she was beginning to wonder if she was even in the right school. This boy showing up assured her that at least she wasn’t the only one there who was breathing.  “Yeah, I’m just looking for my room,” She glanced back down at the paper to confirm the number. “D3,” She glanced up at the room number he had come out of. D1?  “And it must be right here…” She took a couple of steps down the hall, pass the door next to his. “Huh. Found it.” Aradia grinned at him. 

[dirkstridersau]

He gave a faint smile back,”That’s good. I have a map if you need it.” He offered. 

Dirk wasn’t a shy person. He was very confident, just quiet. He preferred to assess and debate and predict. Not run headfirst into things, especially with people. People like him, he knew Dave and himself were unpredictable, but other Sopor recipients were even more of a wild card. And he was not interested in lighting any fuses until he knew what he was up against.
