          she knew he’d stop to comment on how she called him short. it worked every time. comment about anyone’s height and they tend to get defensive.  matty was going to take it a step further and ask something about if he had  lifts in his shoes when she heard the name her called her. half amused and half confused, matty blinked at him a few time. did he just…damn. why didn’t she think of that name herself. it was good. 

 “ you keep your homework in manila envelopes?                   kinda suspicious, don’t you think?”

          it wasn’t like her mom hadn’t swiped documents like that before. her bullshit  meter was going off like crazy. still she waited until most of the other students cleared out until to take a few steps towards him. again she had to admit that seeing him put the door back was pretty cool. metal powers or some kind. like that magnet guy that had off and on again relations with the xmen or whatever the news blabbed about.

“ oh i don’t know…. important security details from the                  security office you just came out of.”

          at the moment she had no reason to go and snitch on him, but she was too curious to just let it slide. he seemed way too sketchy to just let him walk away too. he had mumbled under his breath earlier and came out of the damn security office for crying out loud! something was up and she had the free time to hopefully figure that out.

          junior shrugged non-chalantly, twirling around as he walked towards the girl.         he was proud of himself for his new nickname. bubbles. damn he was smooth.        and smart. and quick thinking. and--- getting distracted now. “maybe i like       suspcious?” he breathed out, a brow raised. he tilted his head back smirking      at the idea. yeah. he did like looking suspcious sometimes. appearance was      important. it was what people saw first. he finished putting the door back together     and dusted his hands off before gasping in mock shock.

     “what? me? thievery?” the platinum haired boy took a step back and      then shrugged. “yeah. maybe. it’s not stealing if it’s taking information      they shouldn’t have anyway, isn’t it?” it was files and information on himself      and his family. lots of details. he didn’t like it. so. that being said. it wasn’t stealing      if it was about you, right? just taking back what was yours. done. hah.

not that he cared if he was technically stealing or not anyway.

           she didn’t even bother to hide the eye roll caused by junior’s words. of all the people she expected to find standing the in the busted doorway of a security office, junior was on the top of the list. even his joke was something that kimi had expected. 

               “haha, very funny, junior. oh you know, nothing much. i’m just casually                  dodging flying doors in the middle of the day. just a typical thursday.”

          kimi couldn’t help but stick her tongue at her friend. his antics never got old to her. sure some of them became predictable, but she never minded or got annoyed. she knew he was a little odd, but he was part of her oddballs so she’d never give him up if questioned. he should be thankful for her loyalty, really.

               “ you want to show me what you picked up?”

          “that’s a school full of mutants and weirdos for you.” sometimes he forgot           that people were sarcastic. kimiko especially. he rolled with it, though, joking           back with a carefully casual voice. he smirked at her expression and moved to           throw his arm across her shoulder without a care, manuevering her away from          the fallen door. “of course i do. is there anyone else i’d show it to?” he raised his          brows as he spoke, as if to put special emphasis to the question, and waved         his hand absent mindedly behind him. “it’s fun stuff. sort of.” he pause.          “actually it’s not fun. sort of creepy they have it. that’s why i took it. you know?”

          it had taken ophelia a couple of seconds to realize that it was junior that was rushing towards her. what was he doing knocking down doors? why was he moving so quickly towards her? oh yeah she was on the floor and probably looked like a mess. his words reached her ears quickly and then ophelia felt guilty for how guilty he sounded. she did her best to push herself up, leaning against the wall to steady herself. her heart was still beating wildly in her chest, but knowing that it had just been junior made her less scared of what had just happened.

                “ i’m alright. it’s okay. you didn’t actually hit me. i think i scared myself                    more than  — did you just say security cameras?”

          ophelia was almost a hundred percent certain that he could see the bewilderment that crossed her face. why would he have access to the security cameras? how did he get into the security office in the first place? why? too many questions in her head not enough answers. concern and confusion were two overwhelming feelings on their own, but mixed together it was even worse. 

                 “ are you in some sort of trouble?”

         the mutant stayed crouched next to his lab partner, one hand instinctively          going to rest against her back to help steady her as she at up. ophelia was          always pretty anxious wasn’t she? wound up so tight. and now he scared her          even more. whoops. way to be an asshole. 

         “yeah?” the twin looked towards the girl, brows furrowing, and tilted his head          to the side. yeah. he had mentioned security cameras. they were in the security          office. using them probably would have been smart but he hadn’t thought ahead          about that. plus he had always had a flare for the dramatics. 

         “what? no.” he snorted, moving to sit down beside her. they could chill on          the floor. that was cool. no need to get up. “i am the trouble.” his voice was          totally nonchalant and serious. hard to tell if he was joking or not. probably not.         he was never one for sarcasm.

        “i was getting something from the office.” files. files he didn’t think the         school should have anyway.

          she knew that voice, the one that had called out her name from a short distance away. had he come looking for her or was he just in the area and heard  her call out? either way, the fear that she had felt had faded just a bit. if anyone could get her out of here it would be junior. but did he have to call himself her knight in shining armor? it had made her face flush and took away her ability to answer back for a couple of minutes. crawling out from under the desk, ophelia headed over to the door and pounded on it.

               “ junior! over here ! i’m in this room! ”

         she pounded on the door a few more times for good measure before getting clear of the door. ophelia felt like she knew junior enough to know that there was a slight chance that he wouldn’t hesitate when it came to pulling or pushing to metal door. as much as she trusted him to get her out, ophelia was always overly cautious.

         everything was going to be fine, she told herself. she’d be fine and then the lights would surely return soon. there had to be people working on figuring it out. all she needed to do now was wait for junior to find the right door. be patient.

         there she was. he heard the voice, muffled from behind a door a few         feet down, and instinctively headed that way. he wasn’t a hero. he didn’t         want to be a hero. but he’d always help his friends and family. he just         wasn’t for the costumes. hearing the rattling of the door the mutant skidded         to a stop and held his hand out, flexing his fingers, and PULLED. metal        hinges screamed, bending off as the door came flying off. mechanical locking        mechanisms clattered to the floor after the door as it flew into the wall behind        the platinum teenager. 

          “ophelia?” his voice was quiet, strained as he stepped over the            broken debri that scattered the hallway now. “it’s just me. you alright?”           hopefully he hadn’t hurt her or anything. she had cleared the area, hadn’t she?           everyone knew he was a fan of dramatic entrances. and using his mutations.

the romani girl glances over , facial expression showing an INTENSE lack of interest in what her cousin was going to say . surely , it was something bad or ILLEGAL . probably both . “ i’m a telepath , genius , “ she puts her chin in her b l u e palm . “ did you mean a hypothetical GUESS or me reading your mind ? “ lumi rolled her eyes , shaking her head . “ what’s in the bag, dum-dum ? “

        his cousin’s lack of interest didn’t bother him. family is family and he        knows even if she’s not interested she’ll listen to him anyway. it’s what        they do, isn’t it? besides. he had grown up around humans who had tended        to be rude when they weren’t interested. lumi at least wasn’t rude. well. not       like them. “i know that,” he rolled his eyes and dropped his bag down beside       the table. “some files,” he answered, trying to appear inconspicous for a       moment. “and some laptops from a few less than friendly politicians.”       brown eyes narrowed as the platinum haired boy smirked with obvious       pride in his work. “you know. normal stuff. what did you think?”

“i heard my name,” isabella replied, climbing down the stairs to the front of the school. “what do you need?”

          “did you?” junior glanced around the area, one brow poised in a           curious smirk like expression. “sure you weren’t hearing things isa?”           he smirked as he crossed his arms over his chest and surveyed the girl.          he broke into a grin after a moment. “you seen your sister around?”

Eleanor hummed slightly, stepping out of the way as a screw flew past her head. Her arms remained crossed as she watched the door put itself back together, the smirk still resting on her face. Eleanor stared down at Junior’s hand for a moment, uncrossing her arms after a moment and gently shaking his hand. 

“So you’re my roomie? This is going to be entertaining.” The smirk fell from Eleanor’s face, replaced by a small grin. “Name’s Eleanor Summers. And I should probably warn you know that I’m a telepath.”

        the platinum haired boy smirked as he shook her hand back. he waited        a moment before dropping his hand and stepping back from the girl.        “roomie?” he cocked his head to the side before a knowing expression       crossed over his face. “oh! that eleanor. cool.” he rolled his shoulders back,       relaxing as he stepped away from the now fixed door. telepath? “no big deal.       i’ve grown up around telepaths---” he paused. “just don’t go looking into       my head without permission.” he turned his gaze back to the blond,       expression sharp now. “invasion of privacy isn’t cool.”

@lvminita

          he’s a little sweaty. eyes wide with anticipation as he           slips into the chair beside his cousin without a word.           the groaning of the metal screws in the table and seat           are the only warning of how he feels, practically vibrating           with excitement. junior looks to lumi expectantly, smirking,           and leans forward onto the table, resting on his elbow.  “guess what i got.” his backpack stays slung over his shoulder           with one strap, weighed down heavily with secrets inside.           what would someone like him do during a power outage           besides protect his friends and family? the answers are in the bag.

          when everything had gone dark, ophelia had been in her safe heaven; the lab. while being there in the dark all alone was starting to freak her out, ophie didn’t know if it was safe to come out. not knowing what was happening was something that worried her. for someone that prided themselves on their knowledge, ophelia felt completely lost in this situation. all she could do was hide out under one of the lab tables with a crank flashlight and hope the lights would turn on soon.           she had started to think about all the possible chemicals and items in the lab that she could use for self-defense when she heard footsteps approaching. from what she remembered the lab doors were shut, most likely locked since the entire system seemed to be down.she doubted anyone could come in and yet when she heard the footsteps stop in front of the door ophelia called out.

               “ h-hello? is someone out there?”

     he wasn’t sure how long ago he had woken up to suffocating darkness.      hours? minutes? without power the school was plunged into some terrifying      unknown realm it seemed like. the sky outside was just as dark as the inside      which told him the time, at least but, with the sky unchanging, he had nothing      to track the time. why did things always go wrong when he took impromptu naps?      once when they were preteens magda had sent him through a wormhole for      stealing her lunch during a nap... now this. at least he had figured out he hadn’t      gone blind, (which had been his first thought), just that the power was out. 

     that had been then, though. since then junior had attempted to figure his way      around the school in the dark. blackouts meant they were in danger of looting      and break ins. it meant files were left unguarded and anything shady going on       that was recorded could be taken and shown to the world. the sky being dark       as far as he could see out the window meant the city was out of power too.       which meant people were in danger.

choices, choices.

       first things first junior went over a list of people in his head. people he needed to        make sure were alright.

       second thing he did was go out and find them--- and this is how he wound up in        the science hall of the school, hands outstretched as he pulled locked, metal        doors open with force and towards him. he had a lab partner that rarely left this        half of the school--- and a power outage meant locked doors down here. meant        a trapped ophelia.

          “ophelia?” brown eyes squinted into the darkness as he heard a distant voice           as one door lurched open. “hey! it’s your knight in shining armor!           which room you in?!”

Her fingers hovered under the apple, watching it bob from one end of her hand to the other, without actually touching it. Parlour Tricks. Be that what they were, at least she had a grip on her abilities for the moment, her headaches had subsided, finally allowing her a couple hours of decent sleep. ❛ You think if I imagine this to be pizza for long enough, it’ll magically transform into a slice of pepperoni? ❜ 

      the common room was mostly empty. there were a few students       lingering here and there--- talking among each other or studying---       but for the most part it was quiet and peaceful. this was why junior,       settled in a corner of a couch, was disturbed from his reading by the       sound of a voice to his left. well. disturbed was one way to say it.       he had been half nodding off anyway--- the mathematics book boring       him easily today. “huh?” tilting his head in the direction of the voice the       platinum haired mutant squinted for a moment, his brain still catching up       what had been said. maybe it had been rhetorical. oh well. “depends,”       he stated simply enough, leaning forward to rest on his elbows against       the arm of the couch. “my uncle can do exactly that.” he grinned.             “so if you’re a reality warper.... yeah. if not... maybe find one?”

Eleanor had been only a few feet down the hall when she heard the crash. Which, though she won’t admit it, spooked her. Not only causing her to yelp, but jump a bit. Curious to what actually caused everyone in the hall to scatter Eleanor quick made her way towards the door. 

“Ah, yes. The door suddenly slamming open and you stuffing folders into your bag doesn’t seem suspicious. Not in the slightest.” A small smirk settled on the blonde’s face as she talked. Her arms crossed over her chest gently.

     the casual expression never faltered off the boy’s face as a voice replied      to him. junior had never been one to give away what he thought or felt in      his expressions--- a habit he had picked up a long time ago that never went      away. the platinum haired boy shrugged at the girl speaking, slinging his      bag over his shoulder. “good! because i’m not suspicious at all.” whether      he hadn’t picked up on the sarcasm or was being sarcastic back was unknown.      his tone was rather easygoing and jovial--- it didn’t give away anything. “give      me a moment?” he asked as he stepped out of the doorway, still smiling.      he waved his hand, concentrating, and watched as the door pulled itself upwards,      sliding back into place. the screws on the floor rattled and rolled before zipping      back up into their proper position, holding the door open. junior surveyed his work      before looking back to the girl. he held his hand out.            “junior shepherd-liu. sorry about the almost hitting people thing.           i was excited.”

          her music was blasting through her headphones to keep her grounded as she walked through the overcrowded halls of the academy. most days she could take a different route to get to the cafeteria, but for some odd reason that way was just as crowded. at least she had her music. all was right in her world until she noticed the the students a head of her act skittishly. narrowing her eyes, kimi lowered her music and paid more attention to her surroundings while she walked. she had just turned the corner when she saw a door fly towards the opposite wall. because of course it couldn’t just be a boring day on campus. the whistle had her sliding her headphones down to her neck. of course he would say something like that.

               “ are you trying to convince us or yourself, dude?”

          “i’m not convincing anyone?”      head tilted and eyes twinkling the mutant stared out at the girl who had      addressed him. or maybe he had addressed her first? his statement had      been in general for everyone--- so maybe he had done it first. still. junior      shrugged simply and stepped over the pieces of hinges and screws in the     doorway as he went into the hallway. “i’m suppose to be in here. the     hallway, see?” he grinned, blindingly bright and casual, and internally     snickered at his own joke. “i’m a student. so. duh.” he turned around to      look the other girl--- and finally recognized her. oh. “hey kimi!” his grin      was even bigger. it totally didn’t matter if he had basically been caught      redhanded now where he wasn’t suppose to be. kimiko wouldn’t squeal.            “sup?”

ofbiochemandenginering:

          a loud bang was the only warning ophelia had before the large door came flying at her. with a strangled yelp, ophelia hit the floor making it clear of the door just in time. she didn’t move up from the floor even after plenty of students had ran away from the scene. all she could do was look up with wide eyes at where the door had originally  been. her heart felt like it was pounding in her ears instead of her chest making it hard for her to hear what the white-haired boy had said. something about how he was supposed to be there or something? it made no sense to her. as far as she knew that had been a security office. right?

                “ — excuse me.. what ? ”

     basking in his victory junior felt pretty good about himself. the scattering      students didn’t even register in his mind--- brain rushing ahead of himself      to think about the items he had secured. angry murmurs could be heard      from the remaining students, something about getting a professor but,      whatever. in his mind the teen shoved everything off as ‘stuff others      should get use to’. they were at a school full of mutants and hero      wannabes and weirdos right? this was totally normal. they needed to      get use to it and over it. he half registered a question directed at him and,      while repairing the door back to its original status with his powers, the boy      glanced over towards the voice. “i said i’m suppose to---” oh shit. brown     eyes widened seeing the cowered figure on the floor. damn it. guilt hit his     chest and the boy bit his lip before shoving his hand at the door, finishing     fixing it, and rushed over to the girl. “shit. sorry! i got too excited and     you know. there it went. are you okay? probs should have watched     the security cameras to make sure no one was outside but everyone’s     always around here somewhere---” pause.            “aw man. ophelia. shit. hi. sorry.”

          for once she had been minding her own business. walking down the halls without a care in the world. matty felt an odd sense of peace until a rumbling sound echoed through the halls. she had a few seconds to locate the source of the sound before the door flew off its hinges. most of the students had scrambled away to avoid getting hit, but matty didn’t give two shits. she just put up a force-field in front of her and stood there. some students had ducked  behind her, but she didn’t look their way. if they were behind her that meant they were safe so she wasn’t worried about them. what had caught her attention was the boy that had just stood there in the middle of the door way shoving something into his bag. at his words, matty scoffed. she had definitely used that line before. she knew it was probably a lie.

               “ oh yeah? are you that new security guard they hired?                   you’re shorter than i imagined. ”

          with a raised brow, matty waited until the rest of the students escaped from behind her before letting her force-field down.

              “ what’s in the bag, dynamite ?”

     force fields. see? his dramatic entrance was fine. no one got hurt. this was      a school for weirdos like himself--- he knew they’d be fine. and if it had scared      someone? ehhhhhh. you gotta get use to it if you wanted to be apart of this new,      changing world. (and he hadn’t used that line of thought to convince himself.      he didn’t need to convince himself of anything. he was always confident in himself      and his own choices.) shifting his bag over his shoulder the mutant cocked his     head towards the force field girl, brows scrunching up for just a moment.           “i’m not short.” wow. rude. he ignored the question with a pointed look      before grinning at her next question. dynamite? weird. also sort of cool.      he liked it. “dyno-mite.” he repeated under his breath, enunciating each      syllable as if he had just heard the word for the first time. yeah. kind of cool.       “my homework. duh. we’re at a school, bubbles.” force fields. force fields.      bubbles to protect yourself with. bubbles. bam. new nickname for new girl he      didn’t know but was questioning him. absent mindedly junior threw a hand up to      repair the door, shrugging casually. “i mean. what else would be in there?” never mind the fact everyone had seen him throwing files into there. whatever.

[magnetjr-blog]

          "ha!”      inside the crowded hallway the locks on a metal door began to move     on their own, shifting this way and that before the door suddenly flew     open, hinges rattling from the pressure as it slammed against the wall.     students nearby scattered and yelped as they barely avoided being hit     by the free moving object. and in the now open doorway? in the doorway     stood one messy haired dark eyed teen, eyes wide and face grinning with     victory at his achievement. an empty security office stood behind him and     the teen, one junior shepherd-liu, shifted as he felt a few gazes settle onto him.     act natural, junior. “hey,” he whistled, shoving the manilla folders and files he     had in his arms into his half opened backpack. “i’m suppose to be in here.” perfect.

hey hey everyone! maggie here with my new kid junior! click below to find out more about my baby boy. (:

Is that JORDAN CONNOR roaming the halls of HOT? No, that’s just JUNIOR SHEPHERD-LIU, the 18 YEAR OLD kid of TOMMY SHEPHERD, who is currently a THIRD year. Rumor has it they got into the academy thanks to their MAGNETOKINESIS. HE is APPROACHABLE and UNCEREMONIOUS and he plans on NOT following their parents’ footsteps and BECOME AN ACTIVIST. 

junior’s full name is magneto-junior hamilton shepherd-liu. yes it’s a ridiculous name. don’t tell him this. he fucking loves his name and idolizes his great grandpa magneto.

junior goes by junior, jay, june, or jr. 

he was named actually by accident. he and his twin sister, magda, (who a friend will be playing), were actually creations of an unorthodox lab company trying to make perfect mutant weapons. when he was rescued everyone just referred to him as magneto junior because of his abilities and the name stuck.

junior’s hair is actually white. we’ll just pretend all the icons and stuff of him has white hair and now black.

junior grew up relatively normal despite his odd family and unorthodox birth. he was rescued when he was under the age of five with his twin and tommy raised him in a normal community. he went to public school, etc.

that’s not to say he didn’t grow up around superheroes and the rest of the maximoffs because he totally did and he loves his family a lot.

junior is very much into space and time. he’s a bit of a nerd about physics and ‘odd’ ideas.

he has a violent streak he inherited from his father’s side of the family. it doesn’t show until he suddenly punches you or threatens you. 

he’s pretty approachable but he is blunt and hot headed sometimes. he gets offended when what he says offends you. he doesn’t think he should have to censor himself for anyone.

he is very much an activist and has been arrested at protests before. he’s into mutant rights as well as rights for poc seeing as he’s extremely multiracial.

he grew up agnostically jewish and is proud of this fact.

he’s extremely proud of his family.

he’ll talk your ear off about space and activism.
