Hello from Aisha

[Aisha Hendricks]

The Powers: Aisha Hendricks is a former Hammel Student turned therapist/counselor. Her powers are cell regeneration and biological manipulation. In addition to serving as a counselor to Hammel students she's also encountered and healed various types of wounds.

The Person: While Aisha can seem generally grumpy and somewhat antisocial to her co-workers and peers, she is very warm and understanding toward her students as she calls the kids she works with. Despite Aisha's tendancy to build walls around herself and pretty much close down to every except her children and the other Hammel students, she can be a fun and interesting person once someone gets to know her.

The Past: Aisha was fourteen years old when she first came to Hammel after losing her parents and her twin sister in a car crash. Aisha never knew her birth parents, since technically the parents she and her sister grew up knowing were the people who adopted them after finding the girls abandoned as newborns.

Requests I'm still fairly new to the site, so basically what I'm looking for are threads with students who need her help. Threads with co-workers. Aisha needs friends and enemies. If anyone plays an older Hammel staff member, teacher or official, I'd also like to thread with them. Aisha is basically reverting back to her old ways of bottling up her emotions and perhaps a visit from a former teacher or mentor could snap her out of it.

You could do an entrance exam on JT if you like. It would especially make sense with his family life prior to Hammel. Oh, and he's a magnetokinetic. Kind of a quiet, whatever-ish kid. Spends more time with his nose in a book (though that could be due to his dyslexia...he spends about a week reading a book on average) than anything else, and he tends to sit in the back of the class and doodle during lectures or readings.

So, yeah. Not exactly the ideal student.

Sounds like it might be an interesting thread. I'll read JT's app and start the thread tomorrow after I finish my essay if that's okay with you.

Sure. Post a link here so I can find it easy. =)

[Morgan Tonaya]

Though Aisha is a couple of years older than Morgan, they would have been students at Hammel around the same time. Perhaps they are old friends? Perhaps they are old enemies?

There is a sort of "opposites" feel to them (Aisha is a perfectionist, Morgan prefers to let it flow), so that could either make them good friends or really big annoyances. Not quite sure where to go with that, but I'd love the thread them together.

I'll PM you the link once I have the thread up (later this weekend)

@ Morgan: I think Aisha and Morgan would have an interesting friendship of sorts. Basically he annoys the heck out of her to the point that she has to like him for it. She gets annoyed at staff act as she terms it "like we're on a f*ing vacation to Disney World" but at the same time she does enjoy having fun *le gasp* with people who get to know her. I can see her maybe being pretty surprised that Morgan became a teacher and sometmes nagging at him about setting a better example for his students. Interested?

[Morgan Tonaya]

That sounds like an awesome friendship, right there. I can definitely hear him retorting "I already have a mom, Aisha." and then going off to slack some more. Maybe the more she nags him about setting a good example, the more he nags her about loosening up and taking care of herself? Sounds marvvy.
