So here's the thing…

We have a lot of work left to do. Those of you who ventured down below got a taste of what we're looking at and hopefully that means we can make better preparations. I'm working on opening a new portal based on your energy readings and getting it to stabilize itself so you aren't stuck down there longer than you have to be. May take a few days, but I'm hoping to get a map drawn up, too.

How many of you have been out to Magatus? You might wanna compare notes…the influence started spreading even further. It's better to bring everything and everyone out there back to the city where we can put up forcefields and I can monitor from here.

So what am I saying? I need two teams, a rescue team and an exploration team. Take some time to decide, figure out your skills, organize and arm yourselves. Assignments will go out when you're ready, and when I'm ready.

Oh yeah…and if you're interested in working for me directly? Send me your résumé.

I was in my room doing homework, and then I went downstairs to eat dinner. And my mom just about dropped her phone.

So she pretty much thinks I went up to my room after getting home from school and bleached my hair.

Oof, awwwwkwardddd Guess you can't really blame em...What other explanation is there, after all I'm just glad I have an apartment to myself, so no one to really see when mine went white As for my eyes, that happened during First Aid class

Oh boy, they probably thought they had a medical emergency on their hands.

Oh man, the girl I was partnered up with about freaked I just told her I had colour changing contacts and that seemed to calm everyone down

Hahah that's some quick thinking

Now if only color changing contacts existed, b/c those sound cool

Right? I'm glad no one went and looked it up Or I don't think they did. No one's proved me wrong

And maybe at this point they think of it as 'normal' and just wouldn't mention it anymore?

Oh yeah, they've gotten used to it by now. They probably will for you too...once the awkward adjustment period sets in Specially with your mom

so all i can do is wait for her to stop finding it weird? i will be counting the days.

Pretty much Unless you wanna actually buy coloured contacts. As for the hair, you can always dye it back

tbh i'd rather tough this out than spend money on contacts and hair dye.

My thoughts exactly That was my take on it too. And the upkeep would be hell even if we did
