Tumblr Academy reimagined

Kira: I frowned a bit at Aiden. "Ghost are something I kill like I sneeze. You gotta salt and burn the corpse, maybe use some iron just in case they try to attack you."

"Anyway," I interrupted firmly, trying to stop any oncoming bickering between the two of them. "Gorlan's Ruins are not haunted, so that doesn't really matter. We should check it out and see if that's where they are located..." I trailed off, covering my mouth as I yawned. 48 hours without sleep was not going good for me. I would really have to sleep soon. "We can head out tomorrow morning."

Aiden: "Yeah, you need sleep."

I nodded a little. "In a bit," I agreed.

I smiled a bit, slightly exasperated. "Good."

I glanced at Maddie. "The two of us should scout out the ruins before we do anything else there. We wouldn't want to alarm anyone there to know that we're there until we are ready to actually take on CyberLife." She nodded.
"Yeah, I doubt your friends would be able to keep up with us without getting us caught."

Liv: "I could if I still had my powers. stupid none magic world."

"I can keep up all on my own."

"She means while we use stealth. Don't take it personally, but I'm pretty sure both of us have all of you beat when it comes to moving silently and without being seen," I assured him. I ignored Olivia's comment. While she struggled with the non-magical worlds, I struggled with the magical ones.
"Yeah, the Limp Gang has got the stealth nailed," Maddie added.
"When will you stop referring to us as the 'Limp Gang'?" I asked her, exasperated.
"When we go back in time and you don't get attacked by a wolf and I got get shot with an arrow," she replied swiftly. I groaned a little.

I looked at my bracelet. "My vibranium shoes are utterly silent. They absorb all sound. Shuri calls them 'sneakers.'" I started laughing to myself because it was honestly a funny name.

"Utterly silent, but not invisible," I replied.
"Neither are we, though," Maddie pointed out.
"Okay, but we blend into the shadows and are trained to move differently depending on the light and the clouds." I studied Aiden uncertainly though. It seemed like he'd found the name 'sneakers' legitimately funny, when it seemed like it was just obvious wordplay.

((Aiden loves all of Shuri's humor and T'Challa being thrown back by his own suit is his wallpaper.))

"You got me there. I am a good distraction either way, if you need a distraction to break into the place with less eyes." I gave a thumbs up.

((Of course. If Nic understood how that's a joke he'd find it somewhat funny too He's just clueless and sarcastic))

"Of that I'm sure, though we'll have to decide that after we see how things are. Depending on how many people we and up going against we'll have different plans of attack. All of them should involve stealth at first, though. We do have to free Matt's fellow androids without getting them hurt, which would be easiest if no one knew we were there."

((Yes.))

I thought a bit. "Hmm... for them to have all this technology, there has to be a way I can get into it," I muttered.

Artemis: "I could teach you how to use the cube..."

"That would be much appreciated, since my phone isn't much help except for the things I have downloaded onto it."

I wasn't sure if I was too tired to understand them, or if it was just my confusion when it came to anything from their worlds. It was probably both.

"You're lucky I was getting ready to sell it so it isn't coded to me anymore." I quickly started showing him how it worked and how to activate certain features. ((I don't fully know how it works so...))

((I don't know how to hack into anything or fight, yet we have an entire book about a hacker and one of the world's most dangerous people.))

I nodded, absorbing the information quickly and being able to predict how it would work in other ways, depending on how I used it.

"It's pretty intuitive, so if you keep using it for the same function it'll develop a short cut for that function. I'm expecting it back. Got it?"

I stifled another yawn and glanced at Maddie. "I'm going to get some sleep so I can actually function tomorrow, I told her, loud enough that if anyone was listening they would also hear me. "Since you're also from around here and know more of how this world works, you're in charge. At some point make sure everyone gets back to the inn." I tossed her enough royals to pay for them all to have a second night there. "You'll need to get two more rooms."
She grinned. "Don't worry, I'll make sure no one gets into trouble. Hurry and rest because you look terrible."
"Thanks, that's exactly the style I was going for," I replied swiftly, already headed towards the cabin.

"Yeah, sure," I muttered to Artemis, playing with the thing like it was a Rubix cube before I looked up at Nic. I watched him leave, staring for what was probably a few seconds too long before going back to the cube.

I barely got my weapons belt off before I threw myself into my bed, instantly asleep.

Matt: I finished my analysis of all my companions. It was strange the variety of places we were from and subsequent technological differences. I made a reminder to infer more about Aiden's suit whilst studying the cube from a short distance away. Had Artemis said it used magic? Interesting. I wondered what properties that would add to it in the first place.

Kira: I looked around. "So, what do we do now? Strategize? Chill?"

I glanced at Matt trying to figure out what he was thinking about, it was obviously about the cube because he kept looking at it, probably at least a little about Aiden's suit as well.
