[One teenage girl with long brown hair draped down the sides of her face is staring at her new phone incredulously. Her tone one of disbelief and sarcasm.]

"Don't worry, we're the [Insert air quotes here] 'good guys'"? Seriously? Talk about mega government conspiracies. I'm not buying any of that bullshit.

[There's a pause as she reaches for something off camera]

First thing's first, if anyone has a lighter I can borrow, I want to burn the shit out of this file. [she waves the back of her personnel file in front of the camera briefly] I don't know how they got my information but I'm not about to share it. And if someone can lend me enough cash for a flight to Los Angeles, it'll be great.

[she turns away from the phone, seemingly about to end her message before turning back]

Oh, right. If you're my roommate, I only have one rule: Don't touch my stuff.

Funny you should say that.

[foreshadower]

Oh? Are you the sort that likes to blend in?

[attractedtodarkness]

Not that. One of my powers is apparently invisibility.

[foreshadower]

Is it? That's useful, isn't it?

I could think of quite a few applications for that power.

[attractedtodarkness]

I don't know what to do with it yet. Or how to use it.

[maybe shoplift some clothes]

[foreshadower]

Mm, powers tend to be a gradual thing to learn -- unless you wish for some assistance.

[attractedtodarkness]

I don't have any money.

[foreshadower]

And?

Do I look like the sort that's concerned with money?

[attractedtodarkness]

[amused huff] You never know.

I'm not going to be an easy student.

[foreshadower]

Please! You never met Jack Knight.

Difficult students are nothing.

[attractedtodarkness]

It's your funeral.

[she has no idea what she just got herself into but this should be interesting]

[foreshadower]

[ He laughed. ]

I think not.

[attractedtodarkness]

So when do we start?

[foreshadower]

How about next week? Midday?

[attractedtodarkness]

Where do you wanna meet? I don't know my way around yet.

[foreshadower]

Mmm, that is up to you. I can be anywhere.

Is there a place you frequent?

[attractedtodarkness]

I just got here, remember? I'll let you know on the day.

[foreshadower]

That will work well enough indeed.

[attractedtodarkness]

I'll see you then.

[foreshadower]

Excellent! Until then.
