Luckily Nathaniel happened to anticipate the possible spray of Mt. Dew and with a quick flex of his powers, she was spared from an unnecessary shower. She turned and beamed at the curly haired cutie before sticking her tongue out at Lance.<br/><br/>Hearing her friend's quiet words, Karter actually felt a little bad. Yeah she'd teased him, but she hadn't meant it in a mean spirited way. He was a great guy and she just wanted to see him open up a little was all. She hadn't at all been worried about any implications as to whether she was beautiful or not. Karter knew guys just didn't see her that way. She'd never even had a boyfriend and had only had one girlfriend the summer between freshman and sophomore year. Honestly, she knew she was always gonna be that girl with all the guy friends who never seemed to have a date. She'd stopped worrying about it a while ago... but then Nathaniel had to add his little bit about how long it had taken him to look her in the eyes, implying that he thought she was beautiful, which made her blink in confusion. Thankfully Yvette speaking up, distracted her from that thought though. She didn't know what to think really. Likely he had just meant it in a general sort of way, like all girls are pretty or whatevs. Listening to him stammer through complimenting the pretty new girl, only made her think so even more.<br/><br/>Dismissing the whole thing entirely, Karter nodded when Yvette answered her question directly. She didn't know a whole lot about orphanages but the girl didn't seem particularly broken up about her life so Karter didn't dwell on it. Nothing worse than people making you feel bad about something you didn't feel bad about in the first place.<strong>“Ah, sent here like so many others. Myself included.”</strong>She rolled her eyes, thinking about the stupid physicals and tests and her mother's stern command to “learn something”.<br/><br/><strong>“Meh, I've been here since the start of freshman year. My powers kicked in only a little before that really. Government said I had to come here, so here I am.”</strong>The bitterness was quite clear. She really wished they'd just leave her the hell alone and let her life a normal life. She wasn't even really all that super anyway but try telling it to the bozos who poked at her all the time.<br/><br/><strong>“Classes are pretty routine for the most part, just like a normal school. Though there are a few fun ones. It really depends on what your particular specialty is. Gym and hand to hand combat training are my faves. The rest I kinda tune out.”</strong>Karter finished off the last of her tots thinking on how to explain how it was here.<strong>“Life in general is... well.. its not terrible. I guess it just depends.”</strong>She shrugged and looked over at Lance then at Nathaniel.<strong>“Who you hang with, what you find to get into... its what you make it really. I generally hang with these losers,”</strong>she grinned,<strong>“so most of the time, its alright.”</strong>
