@Impero: I'll stick with Angeni being my protege. ;)
@Surkit: Beatrice looked up at him with her brown watery eyes."I like option B."She wiped the tears from her eyes and wondered why he didn't like winking.
Gives her a heavy handed pat on the shoulder, "So it's settled then, welcome to the JLI Adonia. Let's find you a spot. " After a long walk and an elevator ride, swings open the door to a large brick walled loft, with basic furniture but nothing special, "You can talk to the decorator, let them know how you want it to look. "
@Surkit: Beatrice couldn't help but burst into laughter."Who else could I have used it on? I'm sorry though."She said, handing him the smoothie with a beautiful smile."Thank you, I am actually still learning how to use the ability."She winked before his last sentence caught her by surprise."Why would you want me? I am just a homeless girl on the run all the time."The demigod frowned as her memories began to haunt her again."No.......My father abandoned me when I was ten years old because I was different. My mother is Aphrodite, goddess of love, and you know she's too busy to take care of me."Her brown beautiful eyes became watery as she explained to him why she had no parents to take care of her.
He nods while listening to her story, "First off stop winking at me like you've got tourettes."He sees her eyes swell with tears " Second, I'm sorry for your family. " He crosses a leg then looks at her. "It's not a about what I want, you need a home and you have two options. Option A, you go to a foster home until next year. Option B you stay here for a year and we set you up for college on a free ride and you'll live with the worlds greatest heroes for a year. Which is do you like better?"
