Chris could sense that Signe was a little shy so she tried to break the ice a bit.
"Hey, I can't remember if I ever introduced myself but I'm Chris by the way," she said as she offered Signe her hand, it was actually a pretty smooth way of getting round the obstacle of not knowing Signe's name.

"Sure, what is it?" Olem asked, lowering his head so it was close to hers.

Aurora pushed herself onto the tips of her toes and gripped hold of Olem's arms for balance so she could get as close to his ear as possible.
“If someone had wronged you, and I mean truly wronged you, what would you do? Would you seek help through the usual route of police, would you let it lie and try to forget about it or would take matters into your own hands?” Aurora pulled her face away from his ear so she could look him in the eyes. She had a very stern expression; something not often seen on her.

"If someone had truly wronged me?" he asked, looking at her, eyes hardening "lets say, the truly awfully act in question is that I find out that someone close to me had been tortured, raped and then killed in a brutal manner. Or something along those lines. I would find them, and they can bear witness to the full force of these powers" he said evenly "after all, there are some truly horrific symptoms that I can bestow". His eyes softened "I know that's probably not what you wanted to hear, but I'm sick of watching friends and family die in front of me, and being unable to save them. Wouldn't you do the same? If someone took one of your friends? Or a member of your family? Someone unable to defend themselves, and you knew you had the ability, an ability that could've helped? I can't add another person to that tally, not when I've been given a way to stop it."

Aurora's grasp on his arms loosened and her limbs fell limply by her side as she fell back onto her heels. She kept her quivering eyes fixed on Olem's green ones. The music in the club lulled for a second “Given a way to... stop them...” As the music kicked back up, Aurora looked at her own hands and then glanced over at the group. She looked at them all endearingly, like she wanted to protect them. She had never wanted to protect something or someone in her life. Not even herself. She looked back at Olem, a pain in her chest.
“Olem,” She went back to trying to lean near his ear. “I don't know what you did with your life before uni, and I don't know if it's appropriate to ask, but if you ever need an ear or shoulder, you have my number. I'll be by your side faster than Herbert when he had super-speed.” She gave him a weak smile. “Thank you for answering my question. You've helped me decide what I'm going to do.”

Herbert felt a little weird that Aurora didn't talk to him much, then she was off with Olem, again... shaking his head he put that out of his mind. He was here to dance.
He turned to Signe and Aurora. "Hey, let's join Lucio!" He cried, before bounding to the dance floor and adding his less sick moves to the floor. People looked at him in shock but he was determined to have fun. He grabbed Lucio's tie and spun them around.

"Thanks" he said, placing a hand on her shoulder "glad to be of service". He looked at the bar, noticing an open spot, "we should probably get the drinks before the group becomes suspicious" he said, smirking slightly, moving into the space.

Aurora raised an eyebrow in confusion. “Suspicious of what?” She slipped into the slot next to him with her purse at the ready. She ordered the drinks and a few extras so they wouldn't have to queue up for a while and asked if they could be put on two trays for ease of carrying.
“Sure thing honey. That will be £XX.95” The bartender said as they poured a pint of beer from the tap.
“E-eh?!” Aurora tucked the notes back into her purse and brought out her debit card instead.

"You know that bunch, well mainly you, thinking that any time two people are alone, they must be doing something . . . y'know" he dropped the sentence. "It's a good thing you're not atempting to get drunk tonight, or I would've advised for pre-drinks" He took the drinks from the bartender "I'll see you back at the table"

Alex pushed through the doors into the club, wearing an open blue shirt over a tight-fitting white t-shirt and skinny jeans. Things looked like they were picking up as he entered, though it was still a little quiet. As he looked around the room, scanning the faces, seeing who had already turned up, he spotted Herbert making his way to the dance floor and... was that meant to be dancing? Lucio seemed to be doing a better job!
Looking over to the space between the dance floor and the bar, he spotted a bunch of familiar faces at one of the tables. The 'super' crowd from the start of the week. He made his way over to them first. Best to at least say hello. And he didn't want to be the guy standing around on his own.
'Hey!' he said to the group, yelling to be heard over the music. 'How we all doing?'

Aurora stood at the bar with a furrowed brow. “What does he mean, 'mainly you'?! I've never accused anyone of getting up to shenanigans when they disappear!” Aurora said absent-mindedly to the person next to her; who happened to be a short guy with dark hair and dorky glasses. She picked up the tray of drinks and went over to join the table, seeing that Alex had joined the crew.
“ALEX!” She shouted over the noise. “I haven't seen you all week!” She was very happy to see him.

'Heya!' said Alex, as Aurora rejoined the group. 'Good to see you again! How have you been?' It was good to see her again. The last time he'd seen her had been in the middle of the whole Drone attack episode. He was glad to see Aurora looked like she had recovered from her injuries.

Aurora gave him a sheepish grin. “I've been okay? Trying to pretend like nothing happened!” She laughed. She set the tray on the table and handed him one of the extra drinks. “Here! Drink up!” She looked to see who was on the dance floor and debated in her head whether to join them.

Olem put the drinks he'd been carrying onto the table, taking his one and sitting down, taking a sip of it. "Hello Alex" he said, and looked around the club to see what everyone else was doing. Lucio and Herbert were on the dance floor already, and a lot of people seemed to be giving them funny looks. "What have you been up to this week?"

'Very kind! Cheers,' said Alex, accepting the drink. 'To pretending nothing happened!' He smiled and downed the drink, slamming the glass back down onto the table. He saw her looking towards the dance floor. 'Well, I suppose they're going to look ridiculous dancing on their own. You coming?' He gestured to the others to follow, as he made his way over to the dance floor, where Lucio and Herbert were.
