[Honestly, Scott's so fucking nervous because he's never been the 'join clubs' sort of person, let alone sort of start one? He was the freak and outcast at his old high school and now he's here and showing his face and talking about all this while trying not to stammer or fuck up. He's totally cool, okay!!
And it's probably too late going back to just audio or text--]
Okay, so I sort of got the idea that there's new people here and I already mentioned this to others before and didn't quite get it started, but uh.
[Shit, don't stop now. The glasses wearing teen clears his throat and decides to just push through.]
If you're a teenager and got some like, power or talent or whatever, you should join my club-- Teenagers With Abilities and Talents.
[No he hasn't noticed that he named his club 'TWAT,' it's fine, DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT...]
If you're wondering why? I mean, I get it's weird at first. [That it's weird to have a power and feel completely isolated at first and nice knowing other kids like you? He can't say that though because that's super embarrassing and he's already feeling like he's about to die.] So, yeah. And be pretty cool to show off our abilities to each other and stuff.
[ooc: If you do want to sign up, just post over here!]

finally taking my advice and breaking the ice with your power?
video;
It's not because of you that I'm doing this.
[GRUMBLE Scott would rather perish than admit Akechi had a good point back then. He's not entirely lying about why he's doing this, as it mostly relates to the big ol' monster and stuff, but still.]

I didn't forget! [Scott snaps before taking in a breath because he's trying to be better about this and start a club and getting defensive with everyone probably won't help.] I mean... like, having your powers suddenly manifest can be a lot, you know?

I think that's less to do with a talent and that your personality just sucks.

But she's not going to say anything about it because it's funnier this way.]
I'll hang out! Are you gonna do like, applications and stuff? Make people show their powers before they can join?
video;
Yeah, probably simple applications, like 'what's your name and what's your power?' [He rubs the back of his head, because he thought he had all this planned out, but it feels like he's not doing enough.]
And I'd want to see their powers, but I guess it's not always feasible. [Like Personas.] I don't wanna force them either.

Because this is extremely weird for him too — all of it. The idea that there are other young people out there who have some power or ability or whatever... he's already bumped into several of them in this place. It's so vastly different from back home, where he was the only one, where he had to keep his horrible secret from every single person he knew. )
Hello. ( He manages a little smile, even if it looks like somebody's holding a gun to his head... but even Migi has been encouraging him to get to know people here. Not because the alien wants him to be more sociable but so it can observe others' abilities.... But Shinichi's hesitant, swallowing against a tight feeling in his throat. Maybe he shouldn't even be responding to this at all. Not with what he is.... )
What if... what you can do is really um... dangerous?
video;
Hey. [He gives a small wave, his mouth twitching upward for a moment, although Scott goes back to looking serious soon after.]
And that's fine. I'm... kind of dangerous too. [He actually manages to look a little more confident, pushing back his own earlier nervousness.] I wouldn't start this club if I thought that everyone's power is safe or easily controlled. I mean. Um. I still have problems with that myself.

Haven't thought of an official date, but it's going to be in this building. [Scott will give the general direction/description of the building that hosts the club.]
So, can I expect you to be there? [Once he figures the date and everything of course. Schematics.]

Yeah? Well, that means you should definitely join, we'll have food and drinks. [Probably at least.] And you'll get to meet other teenagers like yourself.

video;
Awesome. [He's not being cool at all, but he's just sort of happy that someone else is definitely going to join.] Hey, we never got to meet up and show our powers to each other. I know that you were like, totally interested in my optic blasts and everything. Guess we'll get the chance to now.

What um... what if you don't have any special talents or powers? Or I guess, what do you consider that to be?

Come on, everyone's got something they're really good at. Can be like uh, driving a car really well. [Even if there's no cars here...... a fact that makes Scott pretty sad. Where can he go vroom vroom--] But if you're wondering what power I have, um, I have optic blasts.

Do you want to action thread this or handwave?
we can handwave this one!
video;
You are being extremely ambiguous. Perhaps this is why you are having difficulties starting your club.
video;
Scott huffs slightly, trying to look totally unaffected by her words and sort of failing because of the slight pout to him.]
Hey I'm getting it started now, aren't I? Got a couple people interested already. [TOTALLY SUCCESSFUL...]

[Scott squints at the text, not quite getting it at first, and then, he groans, his face just sort of falling into one of his hands. Why do these things happen.......]
I have to change the name.

video;
A small groan leaves the teen, as there's no point getting around this.]
What do you mean, you don't want to be a 'twat?'

Ange definitely sees where that abbreviation is going. For a moment she wonders whether it's on purpose and he's trolling everyone or if it's just an accident, but she's leaning towards the latter, since there's something vaguely nervous about him. Hard to tell with the glasses though. ]
Is this a social sort of thing?
[ Though her tone is relatively flat and even, it dips at that 'social' into a tone more frequently used for when you spot an extremely gross snail or something. ]
video;
[Scott answers slowly, like he's genuinely confused why she's asking him this question in the first place. His confusion is apparent even with those shades covering his eyes.]
Um, I take it that you don't like... social things.

Hey, see the 'talents' part of the name? Don't tell me that you aren't like good at anything. [Because he's sort of an ass at times, but not that kind of ass??]
