"Uhh...." He gently groaned to himself, walking through the halls of the school like a corpse. After arriving at the school the previous morning, he was exhausted from being attacked-without warning-but something called the police. Live it to him to get framed for stealing something that he didn't even know what it was. Someone just threw it at his feet and of course, he ran, he wasn't about to be arrested/ He thought he could get away just fine and at first, he was doing great, until backup showed up.... Nearly killed himself jumping over that fence. Once he got away, he was suddenly wrapped up in this 'X-Men' business. He got swept up in the moment; the idea of being able to go to college here, along with living in a house that he didn't have to pay rent on-at least, he thought that was the case-and best part, he'd be around more mutants like himself.
He walked into the kitchen of the institute, dressed in baggy lounge pants and a T shirt; not wanting to risk walking around with his back antlers sticking out-well, that's what he decided to call them for the time being. In the kitchen, he didn't bother looking for something to eat, cause he wasn't hungry; well.... not hungry enough to rummage around. He still felt like a stranger and a guest to this place. He sat down at the table and let his head drop right into the wood, his arms cradling his head. His hair was a messy blob around his head, looking more like it was going to eat him. He assumed it was around three in the morning, seeing it was still dark out, and dead silent.....

Johny walked out of his room, groggy. He'd had a long day yesterday. After getting ready, he walked into the kitchen. He was about to fall onto the table when he noticed he had already been beat to it. Who was this new fellow? He plopped onto the chair and looked at the new arrival, "Hey. You new?"

For a moment, Rove sat there in silence, without moving an inch. If it wasn't for the light sound of his breathing, you would probably think he was dead. But then, eventually, he made a sound. "Hm..." He lifted his head up, his thick hair covered his eyes and the bridge of his nose. He lifted a hand and pushed the bangs back, revealing his face; he probably looked exhausted. "Yeah, got here last night; they said I could stay here for the night. You live here, huh?"

Johnny laughed, this kid was amusing. "Yeah. I've been living here for about two years. You get used to things pretty quickly. So what's your power?" Johnny asked out of pure curiosity. His goal was to one day perhaps make a stable cure. If that was possible.

Rove was some-what shocked that he'd ask that so quickly. Like walking the street and you bump someone's shoulder and appologize, and they say its okay and then fire back at you with, 'mutant, what's your power?' He blinked slowly, but then, crossed his arms, leaned back and smirked. "I have the ability to read minds; right now... you're saying.... liar." Rove silenced himself, but smiled a little, wondering if the sarcasm was obvious enough.

Johnny laughed, "I doubt that, considering my mind's pretty hard to read. Especially since I can barely figure it out," he joked. "You know you're not entitled to tell me. It's just my curiosity poking through," he said, smiling. He liked this kid. He was funny and was pretty cool.

Rove leaned foreward, placing his hands together and entwining his fingers. "I'm not sure how to explain what I can do.... it's um.... stupid." He chuckled a little. "Yeah-" He leaned back once more, rubbing his hands over his face. But then, he immediently leant foreward, as his back antlers were pressed up against the chair, uncomfortably. They had grown very long and needed a trimming as soon as he got the chance to sneak away and rip 'em off. "I'll ask something now, why do you live here?" He asked politely.

Johnny laughed at the kid's response. He watched closely at the kid's movements. ~Hmmm~ he though to himself. "Well, I'm here to gain full control of my powers. But when I first came here I was an orphan. That was two years ago. I'm 18 now so no worries. Why are you here?"

"Well, I came here-to New York-because I have a scholarship for college. I arrived here early yesterday morning. I was trying to find the college when some thief stole something and dropped it at my feet-and they all thought it was me. So, I ran.... I don't even know what the hell the guy took; it looked like.... I don't know. One of your.... um..... X-Men saved me from the cops, said I could stay here tonight-.... and, well, however it was knew I was a mutant. This is a place for mutants, huh?"

John nodded, "Yup. This house is full of us quirky mutants. We kids with almost every power imaginable. It's quite amazing really. This place is my home, you know? I don't really have anywhere else to go. When I go in the outside world, it's different. It's a weird feeling, but yeah...This place is a home for mutants."

"Yeah, I'm sure its different, being in a place surrounded by people who like yourself.... rather than surrounded by people who have no idea what it's like." Rove stretched his arms out in front of him, yawning loudly. Then, he let his head drop back onto the table, making a loud bang when it hit the wood surface. He should've known better; things in new york always go wrong. It's the place where aliens always invade and the place where the.... best colleges are. Uh.

John arched his right eyebrow at the bang, "You ok," he asked, worried. This kid was strange yet odly amusing, and quite funny. "What's your name," he asked the kid. He didn't know much about him but he thought he might as well get his name. I mean, what harm could it do?...

"Yeah." He replied, in reference to his questioning of his health; he was used to pain in his head. For what he had to go through every month, hitting his head against something was nothing compared to that. He tilted to his head to the size, so that the boy would be able to see his face. Although, because of his long hair, he'd be able to see the tip of his nose, cheeks, and mouth. "Rove."

Johnny nodded and smiled, "Rove eh? I think I'm going to call you Rover, if you don't mind." He laughed. His stomach growled and he got up and went to open the fridge, looking for something to eat. He found a turkey sandwich composed of light mayo, Chipotle turkey breast, some lettuce and Pepper Jack cheese. He closed the refrigerator door and took a bite, submerging into the taste.

Rove lifted his head and narrowed his eyes. "Actually I do mind." He said strikingly, but then shrugged and put his head back down, gently this time. "But I won't stop you, doop." He sat there in silence while the boy made himself a snack. He had all week to get to the college, hopefully the scholarship was still in place. Hopefully, he could stick around here until he went in to get started and then, he could get out of these people's hair.
