Ethan looked up at Draco and slowly pulled himself to his feet."Okay... I'm sorry..." he said. There was a light buzzing from the phone in his pocket. He pulled it out and saw that it was his mom. "Uh... I have to take this. I... I hope he's okay..."He walked out into the hallway and found a quiet place where there were no people around and dialed her number."Maman?" he said. Immediately he was barraged with rapid-fire questions about why he hadn't answered right away, whether he was okay and if Aykay was staying out of trouble. "Maman, I'm fine. I was just eating supper and... got distracted.""Et Autumn? Elle est...""She's fine, maman. She did get into a bit of an argument earlier, but it was nothing serious." he lied. No need for her to deal with this too."His mother paused, as if she wasn't sure whether she believed him. "D'accord. Téléphonez-moi si vous avez besoin.""Okay, mom. I will."She hung up. He wished they could talk longer, but what was there to talk about anymore? They had decided to cut ties, hadn't they? He walked slowly back towards his dorm.This school... Maybe it wasn't safe after all... He rebembered the kid's eyes... That serious intent to harm him...@jupiter_hollow@glazzie@xoxo5959@epicthings451@rilla

@xoxo5959@dada_dragon@epicthings451@rilla@cutebirdy79It took multiple bad conditions and many unfortunate lousy, unexpected events stacking up into a long series to get the young man more than a few hours late even after he made an effort to be ready and to leave on time. The entire day had been nothing but an endless loop of anger evoking incidents for him but miraculously he was not a raging mess when he finally arrived. Most of his energy had been burnt up and as he approached the academy, entering the courtyard, there was no fuel left to ignite and feed his temper. He was only remotely moody, extremely tired and drained at that point. Any worries about explaining and justifying himself for his lack of punctuality failed to attract any attention in his mind. Truly, he wouldn't want to go over the unpleasant list of situations and talk about them even if it was to clear up a bad first impression.He scanned the school and its surrounding briefly with little curiosity and concluded that it certainly wont be a bad habitat to live in and didn't go any further with the analysis. There was no reason to scrutinize the space and search out the details now, he expected to have enough time for that later, his stay there wasn't suppose to be brief and in truth it seemed from what he noticed so far that there was nothing to complain about. Still outside he stopped briefly to decide where he was actually going. Just aimlessly walking was to an extent relaxing and a rest for his mind as it could freely go blank but his body required a break and a chance to laze as well. He though of checking a watch but he didn't own one and his phone was out of power so instead he made a rough estimate of the time. Comparing it to what he remembered of the schedule he came to the conclusion that everyone was most probably at dinner at that moment. What little luggage he had was not heavy and it all fit into one backpack so there was no need for him to make a stop at the dorms, which he didn't know the location of, to drop it off. Packing only enough clothes for approximately two outfits and a large amount of gadgets and electronics instead was perhaps not the smartest idea but everyone was already expecting him to be calling home and asking for something to be sent to him anyway, the size of the package that they would have to put together and mail to him later made no difference. It took Conrad a long while to find the cafeteria. He wasn't familiar with the layout of the school and the large area resembled a kind of maze to him only due to its size. He wasn't very hungry and so didn't intend to sit down for a meal. Instead he rummaged through his backpack in search of the chocolate bar he had stuffed in there earlier. He hoped he hadn't lost it somewhere along the way while taking out different thing. His snack disappearing wouldn't be enough to make him go ballistic that's certain but it would set off an avalanche of curses and would expose a whining ticked off version of the parahuman to a large crowd of people and even he himself didn't want that. Luckily though the sweet was exactly where he expected it to be and the entire scenario was averted.He watched the other students in the spacious room without concentrating on anyone specifically and leaned on the wall near the door he entered through. Being the glutton that he is he managed to devour his entire snack in a matter of seconds but remained standing alone at his place away from the crowd. His gaze continued to float over them absentmindedly.

~9:00 PM~ NIGHTY TIME!!!!--As Julie continued to sit on the roof, she watched a boy come out of a car and walk into the school. When he disappeared from her sight, Julie fixed her eyes back on the moon. Luke came out of the bathroom dressed in the most random-est pair of clothes that he made his pjs. He plopped down on the lower bunk and closed his eyes, relaxing.@zx-metalmonster @dada_dragon @xoxo5959@rilla@carter

Not really sure who to ping@zx-metalmonster@dada_dragon@xoxo5959@rilla@carterSup, I'm new here 😃--//IC//Lys walked out of her inconspicuous looking car. Her mother had chosen night to send her to the new school. Perhaps she was afraid that the same incident would happen like it had at her old school. The last time she transferred, people had thrown stones at her, calling her unnatural and a vampire. It could've been somewhat true, she had the two spiked incisors that were the trade marks of those cold'blooded' creatures, but she was neither stunningly gorgeous nor remarkably graceful. Instead, she moved slowly depending on the temperature and was deathly afraid of not having her feet touching a solid surface. Her mother was embarrassed, as she should be. Her daughter was a mutant, crossed with a lizard like species over half the world has never heard of.She had been told that this school would be different, that there would be new opportunities here for her. She could actually be accepted here. Other people were "parahuman" if that was the word. By the time her brain had caught up to her situation, she had been eager to come to the new school. Lys smoothed down her coppery sand colored hair and walked towards the ornate doors that were facing her. She took a deep breath, pushed them open and walked in.Her mother had called the school and told her that she wouldn't be dropping Lys off until the school year had begun. There was a woman sitting at the front desk waiting expectantly for her. The woman seemed bored and apathetic. No doubt she would be asleep if it weren't for her."Are you Alyssa Andale?" the woman asked her.Lys answered in the affirmative. She was then handed an envelope and schedule. "You are in dorm number three," the woman told her."Thanks." She walked away.

@fluffy @epicthings451 @zx-metalmonster @dada_dragon @rillaAvery walked to her window and stared out to the dark outside view. Seems some students were still arriving at this time of day. Avery turned off the light and let her feline eyes adapt to the dark room. Everything was quiet. The silents made her hear ringing in her ears. Avery was bored yet sleep wasn't an option at the time. What could she do at this time? Avery had forgotten she totally left Nick back at the cafeteria. Oh well, the fox parahuman can probably manage himself. Nick wondered the empty halls. Many students were still the cafeteria and many still hadn't even eaten any dinner. Luckily the cafeteria is open with food 24/7. He didn't want to go back to the dorms just yet. Nick wasn't exactly sure if Draco was still in the cafeteria or not. He didn't dare make any eye contact with anyone before he left. But he didn't want to chance going in the dorm. Who knows, he could of vandalized his belonging already. Truly pathetic.

As Julie continued to sit and stare at the moon, she turned her gaze towards a car that pulled up at the school. She watched as yet another student, but this time a girl, got out of the car and walk into the school. Once the girl went out of Julie's sight, Julie fixed her eyes back on the moon once more. Luke opened his eyes and just laid there, staring at the bottom of the second bunk.@xoxo5959 @fluffy @zx-metalmonster @dada_dragon @rilla

//IC//Lys used the map to navigate through the maze of hallways until she found a sign labelled "girl's dorm" Opening the first door she saw, not bothering to note that there were numbers. When she entered, the room was dark yet she could feel a warm blooded creature's presence. "Hullo?" She said into the darkness.//OoC//@xoxo5959 - I think she's talking to Avery@epicthings451@zx-metalmonster@dada_dragon@rilla

@fluffy @epicthings451 @zx-metalmonster @dada_dragon @rillaAvery's eyes squinted at the light that had entered the room. A call of another person, a girl. Avery switched her vision to the girl who stood by the doorway. The feline parahuman didn't want to frighten her so she reached to the light switch and flick it up. The lights above glitched to turn on but eventually filled the room with it's white light. Avery smile "Hello, I didn't know I was having a room mate." she exclaimed.

Julie continued to stare at the moon, as if waiting for something spectacular to happen. After a few moments passed, Julie's eye lids grew heavy and she dozed off. But luckily, she caught herself before she could drift into a sleep.@xoxo5959 @fluffy @zx-metalmonster @dada_dragon @carter

@fluffy @epicthings451 @zx-metalmonster @dada_dragon Avery nodded at both the parahumans confusion "Well this is dorm four. Your dorm is right next door." she informed. Avery light hit her hand on her forehead for she had forgotten to introduce herself "I'm sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Avery a black cat parahuman." She smiled again.

@xoxo5959 - sorry, messed up your username //facepalms@epicthings451 @zx-metalmonster @dada_dragon//IC//She laughed lightly, "Whoops, sorry about that. Nice to meet you, I'm Alyssa, but I go by Lys. I guess I'm spliced with some lizard creature. The government woman told me it was the thorny dragon." She sighed. "I'm really sorry to have bothered you. I just get nervous when it's cold out. And after I get nervous I'm just lethargic."Lys looked at Avery, the girl had pretty black hair. She was instantly jealous. Lys had never been proud of her hair color. Anything she tried to do to it seemed to fail. She couldn't die it, curl it, straighten it, nothing. It remained stubborn. The only time it changed was if the temperature changed around her."I like your hair," she blurted out, not being able to disconnect the path from her brain to her mouth.

@Jupiter_Hollow @Rilla @xoxo5959 @cutebirdy79 @epicthings451 @glazzie @dada_dragon @fluffy---Samuel's eyes followed Draco and the other until the two were out of sight and a soft sigh came from him. He'd wanted to help, offer some sort of assistance to them but he just couldn't. Considering how the parahuman had acted Sam didn't think his help would be welcomed, even accepting Draco's help came as a surprise to him. Sam's thoughts were cut short however as he noticed someone sitting in front of him, he hadn't even seen her walk up but the way she was looking at him suggested she'd spoken to the K9. Though, yet again he'd been to lost in his own world to hear only this time he hadn't spaced out to an event he could no longer recall. "Umm...Hello? Who are you?" Sam asked the rabbit with his head tilted slightly to the side in question. -Arden gave a small smile at her words, glad beyond belief that he'd made a friend so early and wouldn't have to be alone. "Okay, Okay I'm coming" He chuckled as Ady began skipping/walking faster. For a moment he wondered where the nickname Bambi had come from, not that he minded however as Arden liked the sound of it. The two soon got closer to the school and the deer felt his past nervousness returning, he glanced over at Ady again and her presence did make it a little easier though he found himself still wishing for the peaceful forest behind them.

Aykay pulled on a pair of shorts and a tank top, then crawled under the sheets of the bottom bunk. The fingernail marks on her arms stung quite a bit now that her frustration had worn down. Now she was just tired.It annoyed her that she'd been beaten. She was so used to regular humans and being able to get her way that she hadn't really expected competition. She probably should have. It was pretty much a zoo in this place and while she hadn't seen very many aggressive species... There were still a few.

'If I stay up here and fall asleep, I'm probably gonna fall off the roof.' Julie thought as she got up. As she got up, Julie saw two parahumans coming toward the school from the direction of the nearby forest. She quietly slipped back into the school, trying to be soundless since most of the students were asleep.I honestly don't know what to do for Luke at this moment XD@dada_dragon @carter @fluffy @xoxo5959 @jupiter_hollow

If you want we can venture the school when you done packing and stuff." She suggested. Avery felt the urge to go outside. She had always enjoyed the night for her feline vision allows her to see better. It was also so quiet and peaceful.

@carter"Oh hi, I'm Bunny. I asked if you were going to drink that water?" Bunny replied, in a nervous quiet voice, as she shifted her vision from puppy to the water to her food. Bunny slowly picked up her fork and poked a piece of broccoli and stuffed it in her mouth and slowly began to chew.

Ady walked up to a building and looked up at the wall, "Ummmm do you think this is the cafeteria? I don't really know what they look like." It was the closest Ady had ever gotten to a building and the thought they were Weird. She put her hand on the brick wall, "its rough like tree bark, hard like rocks and red like flowers...How do you get inside? Does it have a mouth or something I hope it doesn't want to eat me!" With that thought she ran and hid behind Arden "Lets go back to the woods Bambi. I dont want it to eat us." She didnt stop staring at the wall as if she expecting it to pounce on them and devour them whole.

@jupiter_hollow@xoxo5959 @fluffy Are you guys in Avery's and my room or Lys's room. And, I assume it's August, when school starts.______Orion jumped out of his parent's car. His mother hugged him with tears in her eyes. He could feel the static crackle as she did, but she didn't jump back like most people do. His father hugged him as well, but it was shorter, and he jumped as he got a larger shock. His parents started talking, but he didn't want to hear it, he was late. His father went to the back and grabbed his bags. "We're just so proud," he said."Thanks, but it's already nine, I really need to go. I was supposed to get here this morning.""It's not our fault our plane was this late," his mom said. They had flown and arrived at seven due to bad weather. Then, they had to wait an thirty minutes for their rental car and another hour and a half to drive to the academy. It had been a long day. His mother hugged him one more time and he took his luggage, walking off.He walked through the long courtyard and to the front doors of the school. He set his bags and suitcase down next to one of the chairs and walked up to the front desk. "Orion Henry.""Yes, here you go, it's pretty late don't you think?""Yea, but I'm from far away, and my plane got delayed because of bad weather," Orion responded, not sure what the woman would say. When she stayed silent and looked back at her computer, he walked away, grabbing his stuff and going towards his dorm. He took the key and unlocked the door. It was pitch black inside, so he turned on the lights.-Aya walked up to the front door. She had a bag over her shoulder and a large suitcase towed behind her. As she entered, she marveled at the beautiful building. Her father didn't have much money and she had never imagined going somewhere this nice. She had to walk because her father was at work all day, and she never kept track of time, hence her being so late.She walked up the lady at the front desk. "Name?" the woman asked gruffly."Aya Bentworth," she said, trying to sound just as annoyed as the lady. Her beak wasn't hard like a normal birds, but it wasn't as flexible as human lips, and had to function as her lips and teeth, so she had a slight lisp."There's your map, schedule, and keys," the lady gave her a handful of papers with a key placed on top."Thank you."Aya turned and walked to her dorm, carefully following the map so as not to get lost, her backpack in tow. She reached her room, and found that the door was already unlocked. /Oh, I have a roommate/ she thought. /This could be really fun, or really awful./ As she opened the door, she ran into two girls who were just about to leave.

@carter ;u; @zx-metalmonster @glazzie @dada_dragon @fluffy-They were subtle, creeping through the hallways without an intent of being unnoticeable, but achieving full inconspicuousness anyway. Though the sight of one teenager in the arms of another was enough to attract attention, nobody paid them any. The stretch of each hall was devoid of life, save for the minor few students not yet tucked in bed, who seemed to not notice them, but in all honesty were simply too panic-stricken from the insanity-laced, wrathful glares Draco gave them to dare look anywhere else but in front of themselves.Still, he must've looked funny, completely wrapped around the pale little boy as if he was golden on the inside, casting poisonously aggressive glances left and right. This wasn't even the fullest capacity of his protective mechanism... and while it wasn't that much protection as it was violent possessiveness, he was trying his best not to jump anyone who stared for too long. Even if they stared for a reason. The other looked like a train wreck, with sunken eyes now puffy red from holding back tears and an empty void of a stare etched into his eyes, now glossier and more dilated than before. He clung actively to Draco's torso, coiled around the older to return the favor of a nearly suffocating hug. Arsenic was just as needy and possessive as the other, despite not showing it on a regular basis.He tried not to be. Even though he needed help, Arsenic was well aware of Draco's intention to bring him to his room and stuff him full of sleeping pills. The resolve was reasonable, humane at the least and worked without a glitch every time the toxic parahuman forgot to take his medicine, but Arsenic still hadn't learned to accept his dependency on the older boy in such situations. His need for control was bordering obsession, if the damage sustained by Draco every time was anything to go by.He simply... desired to fare on his own. To /function/ on his own.Independence was crucial and he refused to need a dumb brickhead.Trembling away from the comforting hand threaded in his hair and the other one, resting on his back, Arsenic lifted his head from Draco's shoulder and pushed at it aggressively, resisting the urge to lean back against the cold arms holding him. Even though they seemed comforting, Draco's coolness would just increase his tremors... And walking on his own would certainly restore some of his dignity. No matter that, he sobbed in relief when the other tightened his hold and engulfed him in coldness and comfort alltogether again, making him give up trying to push away his only mainstay in the situation and wrap around him fully once moreHe simmered down soon, head lulling into the dip of the reptilian's relatively warm neck.He was comfortable.Draco's coccoon-like embrace provided him with the solitude needed to calm down from the panic induced hyperactiveness he'd lapsed in. He was sealed up entirely, completely blind, mute, save for the other's comforting cooing, and senseless, if Draco's familiar heavy musk and his warmth were not to be counted. With another sob, Arsenic relaxed.He focused on his racing mind more than his racing lungs -- he had derived from experience that trying to regain his proper breathing function and putting too much thought into inhales and exhales would just end him in a hyperventilating fit. His scattered brain, however, was in vast need of clearing up.Instead of trying to blank his mind, Arsenic began by concentrating entirely on one of his senses. The semi-warm body pressed against his was enough of a distraction, so he decided to melt further into the other's arms, nosing at his neck gently, and paused as he felt Draco's pulse against his skin. The periodic thump was calming and he pressed his lips to it mindlessly, syncing his own heartbeat with it.Albeit uncomfortably suffocated by the small thing, Draco sighed in relief at the sign of Arsenic calming down. The other wasn't shaking as feverishly anymore, nor whimpering and thank the gods for that because the sound was utterly heartbreaking to the serpent. He was absentmindedly rubbing is thumb against Arsenic's spine between his shoulder blades, tracing the vertebrae in a circular motion. By the time they'd reached the main hallway, the toxic boy was resting calmly in Draco's arms.As if queued by Murphy's law, it was just then that the first sounds of chatter began. It took Draco a while to figure out who the source was and he sadly realized it was the herd of returning teens that echoed across the lobby. He tightened his embrace on the boy in his hold and hurried....Arsenic only lasted out the first wave of noises, then broke down anew. Any tranquility available was completely disturbed when the downpour of returning students caught them halfway to their dorms. Draco felt the boy bustle with new tremors, uneasiness visible in the clutch of his hands around the reptilian's shirt.He stroked through Arsenic's black locks gently, pressing down on the back of his head to force it back downwards and away from the prying gazes. The sight of his tear-streaked face was sure to attract attention where his loud sobs hadn't.The thunderous talking morphed into sneaky whispers and Draco was terrified to find out that they had drawn all gazes directly onto themselves, regardless of Arsenic's state of current relative calmness."Th-they're staring." the boy whimpered in his shoulder and Draco whipped around, hissing menacingly at whoever had dared to turn and stare."Oh crap!" the unsuspecting male exclaimed, tripping over his own two feet and scrambling away from the two parahumans.Snarling again, just for emphasis, Draco spun back towards his primary direction and set his pace faster, hurrying up while he tightened further around Arsenic (if possible)."They're staring at me." Arsenic continued nevertheless, burying his face into Draco's collarbone and sobbing brokenly. "Gouge their eyes out, staring at me..." he hiccupped, moaning in sadness. "Please Olive... Please. P-please."He ended in a whimper clawing desperately at his sleeve in an attempt to convince the reptilian to obey and start blinding any onlookers. This only resulted in Draco's chest tightening substantially. Gods, the other hadn't had a breakdown this severe in months and just the feel of a familiarly heaving chest against his own compressed whatever charred remains were left of his heart. And while he wasn't all that emotional about having to deal with a mentally unstable, potentially heartbreaking Arsenic, he was eager to get him away from the hallway as fast as possible."Shhhh... Quiet and they won't stare." he mumbled mindlessly, focused on trotting as discreetly as possible down the hallway, instead of cooing to the toxic boy. Still, his efforts earned him a sharp pain in his shoulder. He winced, looking down to realize it was Arsenic's fingernails digging holes in his skin before he found himself faced with the boy."NO!" The screech echoed in the hallway, scream directly into his face seconds after he'd turned his head. A small fist connected with his chest, doing nothing; then another -- in his throat this time, making him pull away lightly, while still carrying the boy. He generally ignored Arsenic's violent flailing, recalling his aggressiveness every time he was man handled like this. And it was all fine, really, because he wasn't hurt at all by the other's tiny fist, but then he heard the quiet, broken cry and it made him pause.Arsenic was looking at him through unfocused, clouded eyes, face completely streaked with tears, looking sad and angry and all kinds of tired.He pushed against Draco's chest weakly, yelling."I hate you! You're ashamed of me!"The reptilian frowned, eyes going slightly wide from confusion, not from the loud yell itself but from the content of it. He shouldn't have been so affected by the sentence, but for a moment he forgot Arsenic was drunk on insanity and took it that he meant the accusation whole-heartedly, which made Draco bustle with anger."I'm saving you, you brat!" he growled out, embracing the other again and tightening his arms around him; then continued forward in a slower pace now that he was hindered by Arsenic's flailing."I hate you!""Don't care. I'm helping you keep your stupid dignity and you accuse me of crap." his voice was a mumble this time, barely audible over the spasmodic screams emitted by Arsenic. The toxic boy trashed in his arms, uncomfortable in the now bruising grip that held him.In his mind, Arsenic was sure he was being unwillingly dragged off so the other could spare himself the shame of being associated with a crazy freak like him. He was confined roughly, the wired forearms around his chest constricting it without the intent to hurt him, although Arsenic was fully convinced that that was Draco's resolve - brutally suffocating him to make a point. So Arsenic trashed. Screamed. Clawed at the other's clothes like the unruly lunatic he was."Ashamed of me!? Aren't you!? I hate you, I want everyone to see!" he screeched, growling out with effort to pry himself away from Draco.He was lost and tired, and so in need of peace, but try as he might he couldn't relax his straining body. The tremors only increased with every attempt to control his spasmodic muscles and the effort put into focusing on one thing amidst the chaos of thoughts rendered his mind unusable.Right at this moment he hated everyone, himself most of all and Draco more than everything. However, the only mutually beneficial option was to curl up in the other's arms again and obediently simmer down like a good little disgrace and let Olive coo him to sleep. It would sooth him, relieve Drac too. But they were too broken. He was too broken. So he couldn't show dependence in the slightest...

@rilla @xoxo5959 @epicthings451 @cutebirdy79 and our future member @skittlejg Thought I'd ping you, hun."NO!" he yelled upon pausing from his struggles and realizing he was being wrestled into his room, courtesy of the fervently pushing reptile parahuman. He somehow turned around in his arms, attaching his fingernails to the door's frame just as Draco kicked the door itself open and continued forward. Arsenic mildly felt the other's supporting arms leave his waist and he was let down, not exactly thrown but dropped, literally dropped on the floor, where he landed on all fours, letting out a cry at the slight pain that accompanied his knees hitting the parquet. He crawled forward quickly, pathetic in his fervor to reach the doorframe again and screamed as it was slammed shut before he had even come close to latching himself to it.He gripped the doorknob instead, pressing against it feebly, but found himself ripped away before he'd realized what was happening.An arm closed over his shoulder, the other arm hooked around his middle, and he shortly flew backwards, pushed towards the center of the room. He stumbled backwards sharply, tripping over the pile of Strider's clothes he had made and landed almost face first on the ground, letting out yet another sound of pain, despite it not being much. Draco's actions had been as gentle as his thinning temper allowed them to be, but the force he had exercised on Arsenic hadn't been substantial at all. Still, the toxic parahuman felt morbidly furious at him, jolting up with a mindless scream and clouded vision. He was hell-bent on hurting the other back and started by pushing him away with as much venom as he could muster."I hate you!" he hissed. Draco seemed to step back a fraction, which made Arsenic rejoice in the upper hand that he actually didn't have. Subconsciously, he was well aware that the other's strength was enough to shove his hands away and slam him against a wall forcefully. So he was mildly surprised that instead, he bared the feeble, pathetic blows that Arsenic delivered to his chest and head. They weren't anything to the bulky reptilian, but he wasn't even trying to dodge some of them, just angling his body into them instead.He was simply waiting for Arsenic to tire himself out. The toxic parahuman was fervently ramming his fist in repeated movements into Draco's collarbone where he had been sobbing and crying just five minutes ago, regardless on whether he was doing any damage."Never cared about me!" he was screeching, voicing his utter hatred on the top of his lungs. "You're ashamed of me! Of the freaking lunatic!"The tips of his lips were beginning to split from the force of his screams and the snarls he parted his mouth in."IhateyouIhateyouIhateyou!!!"Unable and unwilling to stop him, the reptilian had resorted with holding Arsenic's shoulder so as to hinder him briefly and soften his punches, seeing as the smaller boy's fist was already bloodied, same as Draco's collarbone. The skin on it and also on Arsenic's knuckles had broken against the bone and now the blood from both was slowly seeping into Draco's sweatshirt.The mild pain served to anger Arsenic more."Die! I'm gonna kill you!"He grappled at the reptilian's chest, completely giving up on his attempt to beat Draco's face into a bloody pulp and latched his fingernails to his throat, bent on ripping the skin there. He screamed unrestrained in Draco's face, dragging his nails over his neck, over his aorta, with as much strength as he could muster, but ended up leaving only slight scratches, which oozed blood nonetheless."Wanna kill you so bad." he growled out, eyes wide and insane now that his initial bout of angst had passed. He body was straightened, unlike his usual hunched over pose, while his eyes were dangerously narrowed, the intense light green irises accentuated by the dim light in the room, which made them gleam neon bright. Furthermore, his pupil had shrunk into a tiny dot as he fully zoomed in on Draco's face and stared at it with an insane snarl. His tone was a menacing whisper, quiet and conspiratory, as if he was telling the other a well-kept secret... as if his entire appearance and words hadn't already given it away."Wanna rip your throat out!" he yelled again, grappling at his throat and practically jumping him full on, hands wrapped around his neck, and pulling him down, gripping every uncovered patch of skin he could find. He dipped his fingers into Draco's collarbone, jamming a fingernail into the small cuts and goring them up further.This made Draco bustle at last. Previously pliant, he took Arsenic by surprise by taking hold of one of his wrists and twisting it away from his scratches up chest."Die!"As a reply to his self-preservation instinct, Draco received a feeble slap across the face, which, while ineffective in terms of hurting him, angered him greatly."I hate you!" Arsenic screeched in his face and this time, he yelled back."I freaking get that already!" His roar outdid anything Arsenic had managed up to now, voice booming across the room and probably carrying out into the hallway as well. This finally made the toxic parahuman recoil backwards with a sharp gasp, trying to tug his arm away.Draco held on tightly.He felt Arsenic attempt to step back and reacted by pulling the boy against himself, wrapping him in a rough embrace again. This time it was definitely with the intent of restraining him. He braced himself for the trashing and yells, then lifted Arsenic up into his arms, making sure the smaller boy's hands were trapped between their bodies."No, let me go! Die!" the parahuman wailed again and Draco momentarily regretted holding Arsenic up so he was on the same level as he -- the boy had yelled directly in his ear and he growled in frustration, throwing him on one of the beds roughly.Fuming with anger, he headed for the toxic parahuman's luggage placed next to said bed, crouching down over it and beginning to rummage. His current plan was fool proof, since Arsenic couldn't do him any damage. Neither could he escape, he mused, fiddling with the dorm key.He heard the swing of the wooden chair before he felt it collide harshly with his back and shatter into pieces. In retrospect, he should've known the boy would attempt something like this, but he was universally an idiot and it was only fair that he did something stupid like overlook the supply of makeshift weapons in the room, such as chairs, drawers and pens. He thanked god Arsenic hadn't stuck a writing utensil in his jugular instead. Would've been painful. He didn't falter under the blow, however, and continued his search until he came across the needed object, palming it in one hand along with the key.With a sigh, he rose. The anger previously occupying his mind entirely had no dissipated into thin air as he realized just how tired of Arsenic's bull he was. Or maybe it was pity for the kid, he couldn't really tell at this point.Opposite of him, Arsenic was still up and fuming, poised threateningly with a chair leg that he brandished ferociously."Why won't you die?" he wailed desperately, face broken into a sad expression. The toxic parahuman looked pathetic, if anything. The traces of tears were still visible and more were spilling over them as the boy seemed to be going through the same bout of hatred and sorrow towards Draco's existence as before. "Why!?" he screeched, swinging.Draco turned his shoulder on the swing, letting the wood connect painfully with his bicep, then took a firm hold of the weapon and tugged it out of Arsenic's arms, which were later suspended and pinned together in one of Draco's."No..." the parahuman pleaded in desperation, feebly struggling as the reptilian dragged him back to the bed with only one hand. Shortly, Arsenic was pinned to the mattress, hands suspended against his chest, rendering him immobile. "Olive." he whimpered out, praying the other would take some mercy on him this time. "Please, Olive."He'd been in this situation one too many times before. Laying helpless and worthless beneath as his beloved anchor prepared to drug him into stupidity and put him to sleep. And he always did it all with such disgust and violence, holding Arsenic away from himself and pinned to the mattress as if he was a filthy lunatic or a rabid animal threatening to pass on the disease to him. His intelligence, his wit... his humanity was nothing to Draco and he realized this with a whimper as he saw him pop the lid of the sleeping pills with his peripheral vision."I'm sorry!" he cried out, sobbing fiercely and making an attempt to sink further into the mattress. "I'm so sorry Olive. Please! Please, don't.""Shut up." he heard the reptilian mumble, voice filled with quiet regret.He saw him tip the container in his palm, spilling a dozen pills onto it and then zooming in on the handful.He seemed to be counting, thumbing off the unneeded pills one by one.Suddenly, Arsenic began trashing, fervent as before, and managed to free up one of his hands, making a quick swipe at Draco's face and latching it there, fingernails digging in.He registered Draco's mild hiss of pain and hissed back, malicious as ever. His skin opened up, pores sweating off paralyzing toxins right into the reptilian's cheek, where the scratches already provided access to his blood system. He had mildly hoped the action would demotivate Draco from dealing with him whatsoever, but as the other took his arm in a breaking grip and clutched the pills in his own, he began regretting his decision."N-no please, n-"He found himself with a mouthful of pills that Draco practically shoved between his lips and then sealed them off. He wailed past the palm over his mouth and clawed Draco's face more desperately. His nose was pinched, cutting off his air supply, and he felt his eyes water again.

As a final resort and perhaps an attempt at revenge, he cupped his Olive's face, gently closing his palms over the other's cheeks and sweating off as much of his highly toxic poison as he could. He rejoiced at seeing the other wince and gasp at the unbearable sting as his skin was coated generously."Ah-gh, crap!" Draco gasped, straining against the paralyzing poison spreading through his blood system.Only when he had begun looking as if he was in excruciating pain did Arsenic finally swallow the pills.With a wheeze, Draco rolled off, practically tumbling off the bed without even making the effort to wipe off the excess toxins still covering his cheeks. It was way too late to do anything, seeing as no matter what he did or whether he did it, the outcome was always his paralyzed form laying motionless on the floor. He mildly considered getting up and breaking into a run towards his own dorm, but his legs already tingled with impending numbness. All that was left was finding a comfortable position to spend the entire night in. He pulled himself up from the floor and sat on it, leaning against the bed."I hate you..." the whisper was quiet, feather-soft against his ear and upon registering it, he closed his eyes.Behind him, Arsenic was laying in the same position he'd been left in, sprawled out on the bed with hands laying limply by his side. He was blank for a moment, staring at the ceiling before his face split in sorrow and he curled in on his side. He sobbed, his entire frame trembling feverishly."You hurt me." he whimpered, voice choked and raspy from screaming. "So badly... I don't want you anymore." he wailed, threading his fingers in his hair and pulling in desperation. He wanted the other to hear everything and /recognize/ the familliar pain of betrayal in his voice, because he couldn't do a thing now and soon the sleeping pills would take hold. So in those few minutes he had, he wanted the other to know... how much exactly he hurt him."I hate you so much. Why won't you die? ...Y-you're killing me instead. I know you don't want me." He hiccuped, then sobbed, then continued. "You're breaking me... I-I'm falling apart... Why d'you hurt me, Olive?"His voice broke halfway. He was honest this time, genuinely hurt. The rest he had said just to hurt Draco, but chances were he would've eventually stumbled on something relevant to their relationship. And gods... they were just so broken. Tainted. And tired.They strung each other out. They violated one another, always searching to grasp whatever independence they were allowed, when in truth they were so very reliant and dependent on each other that sometimes it physically hurt Arsenic to see them in such a state. And he truly felt as if he was breaking, now again as he stared at Draco's unfaltering back turned to him.His shoulder blades were trembling, the toxic parahuman noticed, slowly extracting himself from the rumpled sheets and crawling forward to him."Olive...?" he wondered quietly, carefully peeking over his shoulder to discover the other was barely functioning too. He first saw Draco's hands, shaking feverishly, lifted aloft as the reptilian stared at them as the paralyzing toxins soaked in, making his muscles coil and uncoil unwillingly.With a regretful sigh, Arsenic clambered off the bed, simmering down beside the parahuman's numbing body and placed a gentle hand over his, pushing it downwards. He sniffed, tears still spilling over his cheeks, though he didn't look as sad as before. Pulling Draco's hands away, he made sure the other was comfortably settled with legs flattened against the floor before climbing into his lap."I'm sorry..." he whispered, carefully wiping some of the toxins still coating Draco's cheeks, then cupped his face with surprising gentleness. He was still sobbing, regretful for what he had done as just now he was realizing his Olive's intentions hadn't been selfish, nor cruel whatsoever. "I'm so sorry. I love you."Leaning over, he kissed his cheek, trying to make up for everything with the simple gesture, then curled up against his chest, hands going around his torso and legs folded into his lap.With a sigh, Draco nodded."I know." He felt Arsenic sink further into him and try to wrap himself around him fully."I love you so much, Olive, I'm sorry." came the loving reply as the smaller boy curled around him like a blanket, head nestled into his neck. Draco couldn't help but smile lightly, forcing his arms around him despite the tremors their half-numb state was causing him. It was always like this after he drugged Arsenic... The other tended to be an affectionate junkie and turned loving, gentle and honest (which was still unbeknownst to Draco).He gathered Arsenic against his chest, lips quirking up as he felt the other shortly doze off, leaning on his shoulder. He himself couldn't do anything more as his body became increasingly immobile and soon his neck also began to tingle with numbness. He let his head fall back against the bed, lolling to the side limply, and closed his eyes before they had frozen over wide open.The only thing he could do now was hope for sleep now, Arsenic's drugged self wrapped around his own paralyzed body...He found himself almost chuckling.Because, gods, they were just so broken...

@dada_dragon-Following shortly after the poisonous duo, Misha sauntered over to the stairs, after disposing of his food remaints and picking up the heavy suitcase he sat on. The thing weighted him down for the most part, but, what with being generally well-built, he managed to carry it up the stairs with periodic intervals of rest.He wasn't all that much of an early sleeper, since his fidgety nature caused him to wake up rather often -- he wasn't all that much for going to bed before midnight only to be awakened relatively soon after. And the caffeine is took to reign him in at mornings lasted him the entire day. So all in all, he was fully awake, but simply wanted to get a good look of his dorm.'13' he recalled, was the number of his dorm, and made his way to it discreetly, trying to make as little noise as possible.The creek of the door, however, wasn't discreet at all and he flinched at the sound, hanging his head in embarassment. Hence, he hadn't noticed the boy in shorts by the time he'd closed the door."Oh!" he squeaked at the other male, face lighting up in red. "Sorry! So sorry, I wasn't looking. Not really. The uh- door" he motioned briefly to it. "distracted me. If you want some privacy I can- ah..." then motioned to it again.---@skittlejg-The figure seated on the window sill inside the room hadn't caught the boy's attention, it seemed, depite being heavily backlit by the balcony light.Now that the inside of the room was illuminated fully, the darkly-clad young man sprawled out against the wooden frame became blatantly visible, the smoke from his cigarette filtering into the enclosed space. By now, the air had turned rich with carbon dioxide, but Eytan hadn't even bothered to open the window, even though it was right next to him.Now, he did just that, nonchalantly slipping the lower part of the window lid upwards and ducked under it on his way out on the balcony.He only turned to give the boy a half-hearted once over and raised an eyebrow once he was done. Perhaps he'd harboured a nearly non-existant shard of hope that his roommate wasn't someone blatantly average, which rightfully implied that he was either a whiner or simply an ignorant idiot. Of course, there was also the rest of the mirror, from which the shard had fallen, which entirely reflected his desire not to have a roommate at all, but that was out of his power to decide so he hd settled with intently staring at the small shard, since the mirror itself had shattered into annoyance.That shard now broke too, splitting into a part of disappointment from seeing the boy and a part of even less-prominant hope that despite his appearance, the kid would turn out to be not so nosy and maybe even half decent a co-existing being.With a sigh, he puffed out a cloud of smoke and flicked his cigarette onto the concrete of the balcony; then jumped over to another windowsill on his way to the balcony of Alexin's room.The space was thankfully empty, though realizing this didn't bring him the relief he had anticipated. This implied Alexin was still in the medic's office, which unsettled him greatly.Without bothering to remain in the room, he made a beeline from the door as soon as he climbed down through the widely open window; then exited in a hurry.

@aizel Ethan was startled by the boy's entrance, but quickly recovered."Uh, no... that's fine." he said. "Come in. You rooming here too?"This kid seemed rather jumpy... He hadn't met this kid yet, though he vaguely remembered seeing him in the cafeteria...

This was never here.
