Bryan smiled faintly. "Yeah, kinda. Everyone kinda knows their way around, so… It's not your fault you're clueless, though. This place is huge."
“Agreed. This place is a lot bigger then my last school so I’m not used to it,” He sighed, shaking his head a little, “I’ll find my way around eventually.”
"That's what everyone says," Bryan said with a faint smile. "You'll learn the map, the teachers, the students…"
"Are the students nice? Anybody I need to look out for?" He asked, glancing at Bryan for a moment.
Bryan sighed and looked down at the steps as they cleared them. "Everyone. For me, at least." He stuck his hands in his pockets. "If you asked someone else, they'd say my name."
Tyler frowned a little, “What? Why? You don’t seem like a bad person…”
"I don't have magic," The boy said dully, pausing near a room and pointing. "The room's up there. I guess I'll see you around."
“Woah woah woah, wait,” Tyler stopped him, a look of disbelief on his face, “Magic? Magic doesn’t exist.”
"Yes it does," Bryan said with a small blink. "Everyone has Magic. Even little Mary E. who can attract animals from wherever she is." He pointed to a rather small girl whose shoulders were covered in birds.
Tyler looked over to the girl he pointed too, though he still believed it was some kind of joke, “You’re joking, right? This is just some prank the whole school is in on.”
Bryan shook his head. "I wish. Then I wouldn't be an outcast, but that's not how it is, huh? Well, have a good class." He slouched away along the hall.
Tyler wanted to continue asking questions, but Bryan was gone before he had a chance. Plus, he was going to be late to class. Sighing, he reluctantly went into the room.
(Skip to lunch?)
(Sure! What would happen there?)
(Uh, maybe Bryan gets into a fight and Tyler comes to stop it? Tyler has questions so the two decide to skip the last few lessons)
(Sure! Should you play the rando opposer so I'm not RPing with myself?)
(Yeah, probably the best option, gimme a sec)
(Okay!)
Lunch came around too quickly. Hormonal teenagers bursting through the doors to get the best food there was, which wasn’t much. A group of boys, one twiddling a flame round his fingers, spotted Bryan in the crowd immedietly, “Hey loser! Found ya powers yet or has your mind decided to give up on you entirely?” The guy, Jason, walked up to him with a shit eating grin.
Bryan had his nose inquisitively stuck in a book, trying to hide himself more than usual as he walked with the crowd. Unfortunately, he had been pushed to the edge. He tried not to freeze in place and hastily walked faster.
Ignore him, ignore him…
Jason roiled his eyes and walked over, being bigger and slightly taller then Bryan, it was easy to catch up, “Oi, answer me when I’m speaking to you dumbass.”
Oh my, please don't, The smaller boy begged in his mind. He tried to scoot away faster, only to bump into a shoulder and fall back against the broad chest of the other boy.
“If only you had powers to defend yourself,” Jason smirked, “Come on, why don’t you think you have any?”
"I-I don't know," Bryan said softly, averting his gaze away and leaning off of the broad chest in a vain attempt to run away.
“Why would your parents want to keep a disappointment like you?” Jason scoffed, pushing him a little more only this time, he fell back into Tyler.
Bryan stumbled and almost completely collapsed against the new student, barely catching himself. He mumbled an apology and glanced up at Jason, wondering if he should walk away now to avoid more unneeded attention.
“Bryan, are you okay?” Tyler asked, giving him a concerned once over.
Bryan shifted his grip on his book and checking to make sure his phone was still in his back pocket. It was not.
"I-I'm okay," Bryan whispered as he groped around his body for his phone.
“Are you sure? Do I need to put this asshole in his place?” He asked, looking up to glare at Jason who just glared right back.
"No," Bryan mumbled back. If you did, he'd probably corner me and beat the shit out of me. Again… He looked around on the ground for his phone.
“What are you looking for?” Tyler frowned a little.
“His powers probably. Thinks they’ll just appear out of nowhere the idiot.” Jason mumbled and Tyler clenched his fists.
