Pan's good. He's had worse!

Nevermore II Alright, alright, everyone was riled up enough, it was probably better to try and defuse the situation now. "Alright, alright, you got me." Charlie was one big grin as he threw his hands up in defeat. "All research." From his standing position, he jumped back, making a backwards somersault, landing with just his right foot balancing on the couch, his hands held out to the side before he jumped down, making another somersault while landing in front of them. "Not everyone here got powers. Some of us got to make do with training and knowledge." He flashed them all a grin. "Besides, knowledge is power, don't ya know?" He made a quick little bow. "And I'm the guy that you can go to if you need to find out something."

GM What was one more? Difficult to say. Justice and Salvo had found a potential reason for how Max Mars had stolen the tech. They had clashed, both with villains and each other, but perhaps they had also learned a bit about each other in the process. Or maybe it was all just going to lead to another clash down the road. Who could tell? Science, magic, one led to another, they were connected, at least now in Justice's eyes. Could Salvo help her find out more? Or maybe not. Time would tell.

"Benny! And new person! Hello!" Pan was ecstatic. Friends, old and new, all coming together at once! He did like the first day at Claremont! He disentangled himself from Davyd with a wide grin, and quickly made a small flourish and a bow to first Utsuwa, then Ryder. "Hello, Utsuwa, hello Ryder, I am Pan, the Forever Boy!" Standing up fully again, he turned his head slightly to Davyd, a wide grin on his lips. "Oh, the usual. Adventure, romance, meeting Eira's parents and retrieving her ashes." "And who are you adorable little guys?" He couldn't help himself, his eyes drawn to the Robugs before being interrupted by the man and the woman with the black bug and the wasp. Well, they were obviously with Ryder. "You should see us all in costume, then!" he greeted, the excitement clear in his tone.

Nevermore II "Or maybe I'm a mind reader!" Charlie winked at Leon. "There's weirder powers here, like talking to paper, right?" His tone was jovial, despite the somewhat tense situation he had created, and he was grinning from ear to ear while he looked at Leon. "As I said, not my thing to share. We all got secrets, I'm not gonna spoil 'em just because I know 'em." Turning back, he shrugged, looking over at the others. "That's pretty impressive, but hey, no need to steal your thunder, right? So, what'd you do?" He sounded genuinely interested. "The simulator went crazy, trapped everyone inside, right? How did you stop that?"

Justice Robin stood outside Silberman's, dressed in a pair of jeans and a light blue t-shirt with an image of the Centurion on it. Her hair was loose, while she adjusted her glasses slightly. Why was this so weird? She'd been to Silberman's so many times, she and Gretchen were on fairly friendly terms, so why was today so difficult? Maybe because she was going to ask for help. Their team had gotten together, they'd done some great stuff, they even got an Ultio Suit to look into, but for some reason, but she needed help here, and, well, Gretchen seemed to have what she needed. So, Robin took a deep breath and stepped inside. Alright, she could do this.

OOC for this. @Heritage @Cubismo I'll let you know once the initial setup is over and Justice and Shrike goes looking for Ultra Girl.

GM 3PM, August 28th, 2020 Silberman's Northwest, Emerald City Silberman's Northwest was a nice place, even if it was very different from the original Silberman's back in Freedom City. Gretchen McDaniels, otherwise known as the Shrike, was, of course, retired. She had left Freedom for Emerald to get out of the hero life, but some times, you just couldn't. She had met Robin Lynne Langley on a few occasions. She had become a regular at Silberman's Northwest, and about a year before, she and Gretchen had shared an adventure into a magic book that was some knock off of the Wizard of Oz. They had managed to escape, and they had kicked ass and taken names, but even as they learned each others secret identities, Robin had respected Gretchen's choice to not be a hero anymore. Of course, things were different now, and Emerald needed all the heroes they could get...

Nevermore II "Me?" Charlie looked all innocent, except for his smile as he leaned back, hands behind his back. "I know everything about all of you." He looked around at all of them, raising an eyebrow as he spoke and pointed at them in turn, starting with Luke. "Luke Landers, you call yourself Nightscale. You're become a black dragon and you really should look out where you go so you don't end up destroying more property, yeah? Don't worry, I'm not gonna show and tell on any other secrets," he winked at the last part, before turning to Felix. "You're Legatus, the Freedom League found you a while ago, and you've been at Claremont pretty much ever since." On to Tremayne. "Sureshock, you've been trained by Captain Thunder, which is pretty awesome. You and Legatus should talk about that whole hero worship thing, right?" And finally, Leon. "And you're Leon Moore, otherwise known as Paper, so I guess you gotta look out for Scissors. You can control paper, which is pretty unique. And there's a few other things about you that I really shouldn't spoil." He made a quick bow, looking up from it at the others. "I think that covers the basics?"

REBELLION "Beating them up wouldn't be a bad thing, at least," Elliot mentioned, leaning forward on the table and burying his head in his arms for a moment before looking up at Naomi again. He looked about ready to give up, he just looked so frustrated with the whole thing. "I honestly don't know." He paused, a weird smile playing over his lips. "Blow up the school?" He seemed oddly happy about the idea. "You got super hero friends, right? Maybe, I dunno, infiltrate the school? I'm gonna get in way too much trouble if I try to snoop around..." He buried his head again, seemed like he was getting an idea. "There's this guy I've heard the teachers talking about. He's all black, like a shadow or something like that, snooping around, stealing info, messing up things. Going for the school, whoever's running the school... I dunno, worth a shot to try and find him, I guess?"

Nevermore II "I've got plenty of darkness bombs for cover, boss," Charlie responded quickly, running a hand over his utility belt as he spoke to make sure he still had them. Would be perfect if he'd forgotten to pack them for the day after a line like that, right? He looked over at Arrow, frowning slightly. "That's cold, wanting to use us for setup like that." He shook his head, his tone being more playful than annoyed. "Wanna see who takes down more bad guys?" There was a clear challenge to his voice, while he fiddled a bit with one of his gauntlets. Charlie really didn't have a lot of experience with other heroes his age. Not aside from Callie, at least, but that was kind of different. This was new. This was exciting.

GM "Oh, oh... No!" Bill was quite perplexed, all of these people attacking him all at once, all striking and figting and then... noise. He shook, something making him shake and vibrate, like someone was trying to shake his entire body apart. It was not a good time to be a lizard, little or otherwise. For his part, the Dormouse seemed to realize what was happening. From his doorway under Visionary, he shook his head and tsk'ed. "Such a shame, was not his game, I should leave, or suffer the same." He closed the door under Visionary, disappearing once again.
-
Bill recovers from Daze. Dormouse disappears! He has things to do! @Dr Archeville is up!

GM It didn't take long for the police to arrive. With Kanunu, Emerald Spider and Justice holding on to the bad guy, he had seemed to shrink. He was completely out of it, his body trembling evey now and again, but otherwise still, like the blows alone had not been the only thing to take him down. The Ultio Suit Users tried to get to the bad guy a few more times, before backing down and being all smiles when the police arrived. They insisted on going on escorting the caravan with the villains once they left, mentioning something about a new mission. The members of the Mafiya that had participated in the attack were all gone in the confusion. In a secret location somewhere in Emerald City, Koschei the Deathless swore bloody revenge on all involved. And for Justice, the start of an idea had formed.
-
Justice Robin was more than happy that her mask hid her face when Emerald Spider joked at the Ultio Suits. They were still new, not everyone had caught all the news yet, right? She was there at the annoucement... and they had used her tech. And she couldn't do anything about it, could she? "Its a game to them," she continued, crossing her arms while she talked. "Just a game, do heroic stuff, earn points, get bigger and better powers. All part of the game. Doesn't matter who get hurt and who doesn't." She looked at Kanunu and the Emerald Spider. Maybe she could do something about it after all... couldn't she?

"Davyd!" A flurry of green movement, and a young red headed man was by them, quickly holding on to Davyd's shoulder, a wide grin playing over his admittedly very pretty lips. Dark grey shorts, an emerald green t-shirt with scattered white silhouettes of birds and a wide grin was really all that Pan needed to introduce himself, was it not? "It has been too long my friend! How have you been, how was your summer?" Then, he seemed to actually recognize that he was not alone with Davyd, that there was actually someone else there. "Oh, hello! I am Pan, a pleasure to meet you!"
-
Nevermore II "Nice trick with the bag before. Static electricity?" Charlie seemed more amused than anything as he looked at Tremayne. "Guess that means you're my roommate." He extended his hand. "I'm Charlie." His attention was soon drawn away to the others in the room. Luke, Leon, a big guy in yellow shorts. It was an interesting bunch, wasn't it? A smirk playing over his lips at the sight, they all looked normal, didn't they? Just regular kids. Pushing himself up from the couch, Charlie turned to look at the others, quickly sticking his hands in his pockets as he moved between them. He knew who they all were. He had done his homework. But he still wanted to know how they would talk about it. "So, what can you guys do?"
-
Pan looked down. He had been hit. "Ow." He had worse, but still... they had shot him. Why would they shoot him, just for talking? No, no, this was not alright. Not alright at all! "Let us not do that again." Pan threw his hands up into the air, golden mists swirling out from a point between him and the helicopters, whirling around until it covered a rather large area, surrounding him and all of his friends to keep them safe from any other shots.
-
So much for Subtle 2 on Emotion Control, I guess ? Alright, Pan's makes everyone scarce by throwing up a Visual Obscure with a radius of 250 ft., centered between him and the helicopter, affecting everyone but Pan and his friends.

"Yeah, he did seem very real. He was scared, and then in pain," Mette mused, almost like she was just thinking out loud. She shook her head and crossed her arms. "I don't know what to do here. I'm not some super genius philosopher or some great big world leader that can decide whether its right or not." She took a moment, looking up at Eira, then to Muirne and Karla. "Could that mind-uploading be forced? Like, someone doesn't want to do it, but gets uploaded anyway, like with Otaku? Abusive ass or not, we're supposed to be heroes, right? I'm pretty sure we're not supposed to condone torture."
-
GM Billy chuckled. "You're gonna need an inhaler for Amazo." He rummaged in his pocket, before pulling out a small blue inhaler, very much like something used to treat asthma, but open at the top. He held it out to Alice. The final, ultimate test, it seemed. "Just open the top and put it in, push the button and breathe deep." Alice could see that his teeth were kind of yellow, now that she looked closer and his lips split in a smile.

Justice Robin's own thoughts raced, but she didn't seem to notice that Nicole was thinking about anything beyond their discussion. Her back was turned while she got some beans ready. "Sure. Emerald's weird, if you know the right places to look." She turned to the fridge. "You want milk, cream, sugar, anything?" She had stocked up, of course. Too many long nights spent here building her tech. Once the coffee was done, she returned to the small table and sat the two cups down, with whatever else Nicole had asked for. "Met a guy that called himself Finnigan once. I think he was some kind of zombie or something like that? He ran a group of child thieves that I busted. I've met a few people that's been turned into monsters, they ended up burning themselves out. There's a whole magical underworld scene here, I've only dipped into it, it wasn't really my scene, but I guess with all of this," she gestured to the amulet, "I guess that might change, right?"

Nevermore II Kord Dorms, Floor One, Claremont Academy Saturday, September 5th 2020 Charlie had looked all of them up before arriving... All the other students that were going to be on the first floor to, that was. It was a weird bunch, a flying guy, some science experiment, a guy that had trained under Captain Thunder, someone that could control paper, a freaking dragon, and then, him. Not that it was easy to find out much about Charles Gordon Pym. He knew people that would have made sure of that. Entering the floor amidst the chaos of students arriving from all over to Claremont, Charlie had already stashed most of his gear away in his room, and now he was sitting on the couch on the common area, waiting and watching for others to arrive. His phone was out in front of him. He was wearing a pair of jeans, a dark red t-shirt with a big white speech bubble with a black explanation mark on the front, grinning at the black haired in the blue and gold Claremont uniform that was running around and panicking about finding the kids for this floor.
