Introductory Superhuman Physics, Tuesday Fourth Period [9-2]

At first, there was no teacher at the front of the classroom, and the blackboard was blank. Then, there was a swift breeze, and suddenly a lean man with pointy features stood at the front of the room. The blackboard now read:

Introductory Superhuman Physics
Mr. Beaubier


"Good afternoon, everyone," Jean-Paul said. "This is Introductory Superhuman Physics; if you are one of our new and naive students allow me to take this opportunity to teach lesson one: yes, superpowers exist. A lot of your fellow students and teachers have them. I direct your attention to my feet." Which were hovering several inches off the floor. "In this class we will be covering how these superpowers work. The class is titled 'physics' but will by necessity delve into some biological matters as well, and as a disclaimer, I will tend to default to how these things work in my home universe. If you happen to know your universe works differently on a particular topic, I would be very pleased if you would share with the class. Your syllabus is not ready this week due to Dragon*Con; I will have it for you by next week.

"Now, for this week, we will do the usual round of introductions. This will also help me tailor your syllabus. I would like to know your name, where you are from, why you are taking this class, and about any superpowers you might have. Simple, non?"

"Uh, Gavin Darklighter," he said, nodding, "and I'm from Tatooine. It's not in this galaxy. It's probably nowhere near this galaxy. I'm pretty sure I'm not a superhero but I'm pretty kriffing good in an X-Wing, can handle guns and...can take gut shots and live."

Ben was just going to stare at Gavin for a while. He was so young.
momslilassassin: (Ben: aren't I cute?)

"I'm Ben Skywalker," he said with a slight smile, "and I'm from the same galaxy as Ad--Gavin. Different planet, though." Which would explain the British Coruscanti accent. "I'm a Jedi, so faster reflexes, telekinesis and a modified telepathy are part of who I am." He cast an admiring glance at the teacher's floating. "I can't fly like that, though."

Gavin caught the stare and stared back. What? It seemed like the thing to do.
momslilassassin: (Ben: uh oh)

Ben's cheeks flushed. "You're Gavin Darklighter? Really?"

"Last time I checked," he said and nodded. "We know each other?"

"Sort of?" Ben said. "You work with my dad. I'm Ben Skywalker."

"I work with your..." Okay, Gavin had to stop and blink. "Skywalker? And your dad is...?"

If it was who he thought, then this was...wow.
momslilassassin: (Ben: small smile)

"Luke," Ben said, nodding. "Not the one that just graduated, though."

"Oh, wow." Gavin blinked a few times again. "You're his son? I still work with him?"

That, above almost anything else, made him happy.

Momoko listened to the lecture, slightly conflicted. She was supposed to keep her identity secret, but she'd made that oath over two years ago. Now a TEACHER was asking about it. But if everyone else knew about superpowers and even had them, then it really didn't matter if she did too, right? And it would be cool to be able to hang out with other people who had superpowers! May even form a team here at Fandom just like her team back home? Oh. Would they kick her out of the team back home if she had one here? Maybe stop sending her money for cakes?

"Hmmm. What to do, what to do?"

Ben beamed at him. "You do. Well, when the Jedi and the military interact, of course, but you're in regular contact."

"Well, good." It was an inadequate word but it worked for the time being. "You do look like him now that I'm paying attention. You have better hair."

Peter Petrelli

"Peter Petrelli," Peter said. "I'm from New York, and my power is copying other people's powers. So far I have healing, invisibility, flight, fire, water manipulation, TK, duplicating, astral projection, drawing the future..." Peter trailed off as something occured to him. "And, uh, possibly whatever you have, now."

Momoko looked at her fellow students and settled on a compromise.

"My name is Momoko Akatsutsumi. I'm from Tokyo City in Japan, and in my world I have a secret identity as a superheroine of justice. When I transform into Bl... uh, her, I am stronger then normal, have a really cute dress, and can fly. I also have a yo-yo that I use as a weapon and I can fly a mecha. Oh, that's a giant robot, in my world. Only it's not alive, like Bumblebee, who's actually an alien since he's from another planet. A mecha's just a machine, or sometimes three machines if we separate, but still not alive."

There. She'd told her powers and kept her identity secret! She smiled happily.
