[ The video flickers on to a teen girl in loose black robes. At a glance, it might look like she's offering the camera a cocky half-smile, but a closer inspection will show that the expression is an illusion, caused by a small scar at the corner of her mouth. ]

Would anyone like to meet at the malt shop before school starts again? I think some of us will need a lot of help catching up for this world’s history class.

[Mandrake's sitting at the kitchen table in his house-- how he desperately misses having an office, this is so undignified-- trying to familiarise himself with the network and the workings of the communicators. Finally, he figures out how to respond to the posts that intrigue him.]

I have been catching up on it. It's not terribly difficult to understand, just lengthy.

[Spoken like a true nerd.]

[A small smile at the corner of his lips, like he's accepting of the compliment while attempting to stay modest.]

Not as much as I would like to be, but I try. Understanding this world's history is imperative to the understanding of our current predicament.

They are one and the same, for the time being.

[He's not keen to spend time tutoring someone who clearly can't be bothered to do the research herself as he did, but he reminds himself that he's an unknown here. He can't afford to brush people of little consequence off-- indeed, he has no idea who is and who isn't of consequence here in the first place. No, he has to start over from scratch, as he did when he was younger. The world works on the basis of quid pro quo: he helps her out with something now, and she will owe him one later.]

I would not mind, no. Though I can't stand communicating through these things, to be honest. It would be more agreeable if we could talk in person.

You could always just not go to school.

I can't believe there are so many of you who actually want to go to school.

[Not that she's against it entirely but really they've all been kidnapped and given powers, why is school a thing people are concerned about?]

Ooon the plus side, totally fresh start for the ol' GPA, right?

[ Another teen girl, around the age of fifteen stares back in boredom. ]

Ugh, no more classes. Can't we just get milkshakes and eat instead?

But classes are boring. The history of this world is hard to understand, too.

[More teenagers who want to go to school. This could be a good chance to meet others before school starts.]

I've been reading up on the history of this world. My notes could come in hand if other people need to catch up too.

[Gives her a small one in return.]

We could make it a study group and I can go back as far as necessary for those who don't come from Earth to start with. History is my best subject.
