Gold, Frankincense, and...Comics? (Muse)

>> "Well, I, um... I don't spend much time there…because, you know. My mutation. Some kids are hyper on their own, they don't need me to overboost them. We are talking about teenagers here."

“Ooooooooh, makes sense,” Akshay said with a nod.

In truth he really did understand what the Svetalana was talking about. After all he was a victim of her powers too and it took every bit of focus to keep his powers at bay. He could only imagine what would happen to a school full of mutants that could scarcely control their powers to being with and to have someone like Sveta saunter in. Pure and complete and utter mayhem would ensue. For a moment he was thankful that she did not spent a lot of time there cause he could imagine the place exploding like a bomb.

But still…a place devoid of her? He simply could not imagine it.

She looked resistant still, as if she simply were not sure about him. As much as he wanted to console her, he knew that he must not appear too forceful or, like a delicate fawn, she could bound away into the underbrush when startled.

Akshay felt like he needed to apologize for his forwardness but that quickly proved to not be necessary.

>> "But, sure. If you come visit when I happen to be there, I can show you around. I can't check you in or anything, they have people for that there, but... yeah. I think you'll like the place."

Akshay just grinned, and grinned in a very pleased but not overly creepy way. “Really?” He liked the idea of a gamble. She may or may not be there and if she were she could show him around herself? That was completely awesome. Now he just needed to figure out when she WOULD be there. But he did not show those thoughts on his face. Instead he just nodded respectfully. “That…definitely sounds like a date.” He smirked. “I look forward to it.”
