Nebula flew into the community center through an open window, ready for a day of socialization. As magic spiraled out of control and died, there were many interesting things to talk about. Interesting things she did not want to think about. It was the talk of the school, so after her classes, she left immediately. At the center, she hoped that she could get a regular conversation about normal stuff.

Except it was pretty much empty.

Some people were present. One girl with a unicorn horn protruding from her head was quietly read a book in a beanbag, looking to be studying for a science class. Another girl was chatting with her long-tailed friend. The only person who didn't seem occupied was a very tall man with four horns and a snake for a tail.

Nebula flew several feet away from his face and waved. "Hi there! You looked lonely, soooo I thought I would accompany you. Should I greet the snake attached to you too?" She wasn't joking. Some people shared a body with another person. It did well to be understanding of that.

Brody was still trying to adjust to things, which wasn't such a easy thing to do. He could study every single relevant thing that happened in the past 12 years but that would be boring as fuck. What type dork would do th- actually he knew a few people doing that already. Brody thought the best way to do that was just going around and experiencing everything first hand.
Brody made his way to the community center once he was out of class. It was one of the best places to meet people and learn new stuff going on around the island.

So Brody spent most of his time there for the past week just trying to adjust.

The community center wasn't exactly as interesting as he had hope today. Everyone kinda seemed to be doing their own thing and as much as he liked being a attention whore, he didn't want to put the effort into getting the attention of a few....well....."uninteresting" people. That was until some...pixie or fairy flew up to him. "Lonely?" Brody laughed at that comment. Pfft, lonely.
"I'm not lonely i'm just chilling yo and this snake is just a tail but basically my second head. If that makes sense. Anyway, i'm Brody!"

Nebula didn't appreciate being laughed at. She pouted and put her hands on her hips. "Chillin' alone looks lonely to me, but fiiiine, semantics or whatever."

With that out of her system, she smiled happily again. "Thank fuck I don't gotta wave at your butt. I'm Nebula. So, what does chillin' alone mean for you here, 'cause I'm not in the mood to just sit around and do some people-watching."

Brody grinned at Nebula, at least she was actually enganging him unlike the others here. He just started laughing at the idea at someone waving at his butt, only a weirdo would do something like that. "No need to wave at my butt and no people watching. Who the fuck just sits here and people-watch? Is that a thing people do here? That's borderline stalking yo."

"It is also reaaally boring." Despite him technically doing that a few days ago to just understand how phones work. "There isn't much fun stuff going on here. Which sucks major dick. Like those two over then been non stop chatting and doing weird stuff with their phones like waving at the screen." He gestured to the girl and her long tailed friend.

"I also have no idea what they are talking about. What the heck is The Real Housewives of Manta Carlos?"

Nebula's eyes widened before she burst out into laughter. So hard was she laughing that she had to land on a nearby unused table.

"Are you new?" Nebula asked. "Wait, no, are you one of those Dark Crystal students? That phone-waving comment sounded suspiciously out of date. 'Cause, y'know, or ya don't know, people can video chat and shit. "

Okay, Brody knew all his knowledge was basically 12 years old but he didn't like having it called out. Well it wasn't a big deal he just didn't want to be known as "one of those DCA students." Plus him going around bringing that DCA flair and spirit around also probably wasn't helping him. He clearly had to rebuild his reputation as Mr. Popular again.

"I am a student from Dark Crystal. I'm one of DCA's top athletes and the captain of the school spirit club." He was basically stating he was popular without saying he was popular. Which is kinda sad.....

"Wait wait, video chatting? Like uh skype?" Was Skype still a thing? He assumed they were using Skype which was really surprising considering they were on the phone. "People can use skype on their phone now?"

Nebula jumped up with her hands in the air. "I was right!" she yelled victoriously, which wasn't actually that loud. Her small body made her voice small as well.

She lowered her hands and almost quipped about Brody's reputation before becoming distracted by his technology-based questions. "Yeah, but Skype isn't as popular nowadays. People prefer other chatting services. Discord is a big thing but it's mostly targetted to gamers. Phones come with video chatting by default now too."
