Clandestine meeting [Ashton/Danicca]

[Dom Edmonds]

Dominic had been at the Hammel institute for a couple days now, and really hadn't spent that much time in his dorm, maybe an hour or two here and there. But not long enough for him to meet his room mates, so he figured since it was about an hour or two after dinner he would be able to get the opportunity to meet them. Just find out out of the plethora of meta's in the school which ones would be causing him migraines on a daily basis. His body and mind were exhausted, however sleep was a luxury he wasn't able to indulge himself in since his powers manifested, however he was able to close his eyes for micro naps that lasted a couple minutes each.

God he needed sleep and a smoke, a thought that quite often travelled through his mind. However that soon stopped when the approach of an unusual power neared his dorm, one that brought a genuine smile on his face. "Oh please let this person be my room mate"

[Ashton Harper]

Having been figuring things out with Tae and his parents as far as the living arrangements, Ashton really hadn't been to the dorm in a while. He hadn't even realized he'd acquired a new roommate. It wasn't like he saw the other one very much. He knew it was a girl with a unique name something that Dani was short for. He was usually out with his girlfriend or spending the night at her place when they hungout.

Graduation had passed and now Ash was trying to find an apartment or a small house that he'd be able to afford for him and his girlfriend that would allow them to keep the two dogs. Otherwise Tae's aunt and uncle or his parents would need to take Kuma and Max. Ash wasn't too keen on the idea of one of his parents taking his dog. That would require him to visit more than he was ready for. Since he still hadn't found a place quite yet, he was headed to his dorm to relax and look through the paper. Woah, that made him sound like an adult. Weird.

As he made his way to the dorm he didn't even acknowledge the flow of powers around him. He'd learned to get used to it and none of them were much of a threat to him so his power was not at work trying to suppress the dangerous ones. He did feel a new one coming from his dorm room, one that Dani didn't have. He expected it to be a recruiter of some sort, but that just didn't make any sense. He opened the door and peeked in only to find a younger kid.

Ashton walked in and smiled at the boy in front of him, "Uh, hey. I'm gonna take a wild guess and say you're my roommate?" He asked rubbing the back of his neck.

[Dom Edmonds]

Dominic couldn't believe it, the first meta he would actually want to be around, was a guy. "Fuck" he thought, but still keeping the smile on his face, it was refreshing. So much so that he wanted his room mate to use his powers almost immeadiatly, so he stood up and walked over holding his hand out to shake his new roomies own hand. "Yes, and I can already tell we are going to be great friends, why don't you tell me something about yourself. Since we're going to be spending some time together, we should get to know each other. Tell me what is it like having such an incredible ability such as suppressing a Meta's powers? I bet it is utterly fantastic" Look at him, he was as giddy as a girl finding her next crush, almost crushing Ashton's hand in a handshake.

He was so hung up on finding out more about this person that he forgot to introduce himself to Ashton. "Oh shit where are my manners. My name is Dominic Edmonds, or Dom, or whatever you want to call me. God your fucking awesome right now do you know that?"

[Ashton Harper]

Ashton looked at the younger kid and almost felt sorry for him. Meta-tracking had to be the suckiest power ever. Sure, power suppression had taken a lot out of him when he first joined because he couldn't turn it on and off at will. Now that he had gained control, the passing out and headaches didn't happen quite as frequently. He only had to use his power now when he felt threatened by the power he was suppressing. Pyros, those who could blow things up at will, those were the people that he usually steered clear of. That and if it was a newb with crappy control over a power.

He was thankful for having learned control in Hammel. It helped him a lot. Yes, it had taken nearly forever for him to actually fully get it, but it was worth it in the end. He took the boy's hand and shook it politely. Then the younger one started babbling and it was difficult for Ash to catch all of what he was saying. Great friends? Spending time together? Utterly fantastic? Dude, this kid was creeping him out by how excited he was about the whole thing. "Woah, woah, hand. Dude, chill," Ash laughed.

"Nice to meet ya Dom, I'm Ashton Harper, preferrably Ash. Yes, power suppression is helpful in a lot of cases and people usually like to use my power to help them. Who needs meds when you've got a power suppressing friend?" He laughed again and shoved his hands in his pocket. His power was starting to creep up around Dom so that eventually his headache would disappear along with all of the powers surrounding him. It didn't take much for Ash to use his power since Dom was sort of in his personal bubble, nor would it if he was across the room. Ash had began working on distance and the confines of this small common room was no real challenge. "So meta-tracking has gotta suck."

[Dom Edmonds]

As soon as Dom was in Ashton's personal bubble he could feel the pressure leaving his head, along with the powers he could feel on campus. God what a feeling this was, he almost wanted to cry. For the first time since he received his curse that he felt normal again, a feeling he has wanted ever since waking up. Maybe tonight he could actually get some sleep, that is if Ash decided to stick around for the night.

He was so relieved that he almost didn't catch his room mates initial response to all his question, and felt kind of embarrassed to be perfectly honest. However he couldn't help but chuckle when he heard his quip about having a power suppressing friend. "Oh you have no idea about that one Ash" He said before letting go of his hand and placing it on the back of his own neck, rubbing it in embarrassment.

It was then when Ash said a rather obvious comment that his smile some what faded. He truly had no idea how much he hated having this power of his, and kept quiet on the matter. "Lets not talk about that, please"
