Dear Diary,

Okay so today was the first day of class. We got in and the teacher introduced us with her full name which is like the first time I’ve ever seen that happen. Not “Ms. Gray” but “Hi I’m Theresa Gray”. Weird. High school is so different!

I chat with Amber and Evan for a bit but then this girl beside me - Gabby - asked me how the CC-Link works. I might have been a bit short with her but, like... we got an instruction manual? Does nobody read it? Amber said she skimmed it and I joked that I was surprised she’s literate.

Later a girl named Debbie came around with cupcakes, and I tried to refuse because - y’know, I’m supposed to have all kinds of allergies. She wouldn’t take no for an answer. So, I gave it to Amber. I told her that my dad probably sent a whole list of my allergies to the school, better not to rouse any suspicion.

Dana suggested we play soccer as a homeroom class. Everyone agreed and I planned to just pretend to have an asthma attack and leave. But Dana and Sophie got really into it, and... I mean, I don’t want to suspect... but I feel like there was some powers being used. So I decided to play for real. Kind of. I tried to match Sophie’s physical abilities, and grew my bones out to make cleats for better control. I totally ruined my shoes. Stupid.

Tanner, on our team, seems super unlucky. He got knocked over and hit in the face with a soccer ball. I feel pretty bad. We ended up winning 2-1 though. I didn’t really do much so I probably could have not bothered.

 

We had class and it was pretty interesting! I mean, a little bland of normal introduction stuff. Then when lunch time came around I saw Sophie and Dana kind of scope out the whole cafeteria and sit with Kylie and some of the other girls. I asked Amber (and Evan but he was busy playing Clash of Kings or whatever) if something weird was going on during the game. I also tried to explain my not-having-an-asthma-attack away by saying taking 3 inhaler puffs keeps it at bay longer. Which is stupid but better than telling Evan I have powers.

I got a text from Sophie about talking about College stuff. But not college but “”college”” (we need to work out a better code word). We tried to talk about where to meet up but because I don’t know this Rigel person’s identity. Sop Calico messaged me with coordinates on where we can all meet up. I wonder what it’s about...
