(July 6th, open to all children, but I'd really like to see Louise show up.)
Stan sat down on a lime green beanbag with a Xbox controller in hand. He was just playing a War game, sitting with an annoyed, dull look on his face. "Crap!" he thought to himself as he lost, again, throwing his remote on the ground, surprisingly not damaging it all.
"This sucks." he muttered out loud. "What I'd do to be home right now." he thought. The reason why he was here was still a mystery to the raven-haired boy. He didn't need love, he already had one, back at home, Wendy. The girl that made his stomach fill with butterflies, the girl that made him smile, the girl that made him puke whenever she tried to talk to him, she was that girl.
Stan sighed as he got up and picked up the controller.

In truth, Raz didn't really know why he wandered in to the room. He already made a map after scoping the place out, recalling the hallways and rooms from memory as he drew it all out on paper. He even went so far as to name which kitchen drawer held what, and had the words 'AVOID' drawn in red letters right above the Pool area after deciding that he was to stay at least 3 feet away from the pool itself, far enough not to drown yet close enough to practice his Hydrokinetics when no one else was around. Nor did it take the boy a long time to get everything in his room situated. After that, everything was just..boring. And what better way to ward off boredom than by wandering some more?
Raz paused in mid step as he heard another thought, fleeting, but..familiar, as he passed by another Kid. "You're telling me." He muttered before he could fully comprehend exactly what he was responding to, a dull expression on his face as he glanced over at the boy wearing the blue beanie on his head. Razputin wouldn't mind being back home either. At first, he thought of this being another Trap and a threat to the world, and it was his duty as a Psychonaut to step in and stop it. When he learned that it was nothing more than some sort of love-fest..thing going on, Raz was just a bit disappointed, though he didn't give up the hope that somehow this was some sort of evil trap. He still wasn't convinced that it was just some sort of match-making plan, nor did he believe he would find someone here. He already had someone, or, at least he thought he did.
Raz blinked, clearing his head as he looked over to the game that Stan was playing as his expression turned curious. From the look of it, it looked like some sort of War game, though the Psychic was never really one for Video games. He never had the time, nor had the thought really occurred to him before. "So, uh...What'cha playing?" He asked, taking a few steps closer, hands in his jacket pockets as he examined the screen.

Stan looked over as he saw the other boy standing nearby. Like himself, the kid seemed just as bored as him. His attire did throw Stan off a bit. "What the?" he thought, but decided nit to comment on it. He had seen stranger things in his ten years of living, and it wasn't like Raz was trying to bother him, so why should he do the same?
Stan shrugged at the other boy's question. "I don't know, it's just some Modern Warfare game I found, probably one of the older ones." Stan replied, picking up the controller. He then looked at Raz again. "So do you wanna play." he gestured the remote towards him.

Raz first glanced over to Stan, then to the controller as he gestured towards him with it. The Psychic shrugged his shoulders with a small, friendly smile. "Sure. Not like there's really anything better to do around here." He replied, bringing over a dark blue beanbag from his right and flopping right in to it with a small sigh.
"So, mind filling me in on this game? I'm...not much of a Gamer.." he asked after a small pause, looking over to the screen again. He wasn't too familiar with some of the newer game Genres as his Family moved around a lot and often didn't carry Tv's and the like with him. After all, It was hard enough staying in a cramped caravan with a Father, two brothers and two sisters.

Slinking around the room was a little girl with a pink bunny hat. She snickered. These boys looked like prime targets and perhaps could tell her what was going on and why she was there. One of them was playing video games, the other was a weird looker. She raised an eyebrow and padded up towards them. She crossed her hands behind her back and grinned wildly.
"So, so boys," she mused, "What are we doing here? Couple of little kids ready to play video games huh? Not too concerned about being in a strange place or why we need to find yucky love or whatever that is." She peered at the boy in the poofball hat. "Dude, its freaking hot in here. Lose the coat!"

As another voice approached from behind, Raz whipped around to find a girl wearing a Bunny hat grinning wildly at them. Quirking an eyebrow, the Psychic glanced to the screen as he listened to her before looking back over at her again, eyes narrowed, though he didn't really do much more then that. In a weird way, this girl reminded Razputin of a mix between Bobby and Lili, with a little bit of Crystal/Clem mixed in. Or, The tone of voice certainly reminded him of his fellow Campers.
As Louise asked her question, Raz gave a small shrug of his shoulders. In truth, he wasn't too concerned. A Psychonaut had to keep himself/herself prepared. "Nope, not really. With what I do at home, I've got this whole place mapped out. And I've already got somebody back home, so there's not really much of a point in finding who our 'Love' is..." He replied, keeping his tone casual and conversational. As he heard the new girl say that it was hot in here, Raz almost reached up to take his hat off...before he remembered he had left it in his room, though he kept his goggles around his neck and everything else with him at all times. So that must've meant she was talking to the other Kid beside him.
Though it puzzled him at first as to why a kid would wear such warm looking clothes in this environment, he wasn't one to judge. After all, another Camper often wore a fluffy Russians Hat in the middle of summer and a kid in a Sailor's outfit who spent the majority of his time talking to the Fish in the local lake. "Pft. Not all that hot in here to me. Maybe it's your hat?" He quipped with a slight smirk.

"Okay, this button..." But before Stan could continue a female voice had entered the scene. The poofball boy turned around from his seat to the see the girl, roughly his age , standing not too far away. Stan was about to say something but Raz pretty much covered that for him.
"Lose my coat?" Stan repeated in his mind annoyed at the statement. His coat and hat, he had them since he was a little kid, they meant a-lot to him, he couldn't just ditch them.
But some relief came when Raz responded before he did. "Yeah, it looks like your hat also did other things." Stan replied, referring to her "snarky" entrance.

Louise defensively placed a hand on her pink bunny hat. A object she even slept in. She frowned and turned to the boy with the poofball hat. Her frown turned into a sick grin.
"Well aren't we mister smarty smarty," she mused, eyes narrowing softly, "What do they call you smarty pants?" She wasn't much interested in his name; just enough information to manipulate and mold him to her will if she needed to. She turned to the other boy.

Already, Stan didn't take a liking to this chick. There was just something about her, that made him wary, as usual. Stan had always been the skeptic among his group of friends, always wary and mistrusting of anything strange.
Still skeptical of the cunning female, Stan responded to her question with a slight shrug. "Well, I'm smart, but the real brains in my group of friends, was my best friend Kyle."
Where were they know? Did they know he was missing? In fact, Stan missed all of his friends, heck even Cartman!

Raz narrowed his eyes a little as he listened in, glancing from Stan, to the new girl and back and stifled a smirk when he saw her reach for her hat in a defensive manner. Yep, she definently reminded the young Psychic of Lili, and of Dogen, and most of the other Campers at Whispering Rock, too. Though when she gave the other boy a rather sick looking grin, Raz just crossed his arms over his chest, expression skeptical. He'd have to be careful around people who grinned like that.
Raz only shrugged his shoulders in a nonchalant manner, sweeping a free hand in a motion that would make it appear he was physically moving his hair out of his face, when really he was using his telekinesis to move it. Raz glanced over to Stan with a slight smile.
"Don't you mean 'is', not 'was'? You never really know who'll show up here. Maybe some of your friends'll show up, too." he told him before looking over to the girl in the Hat with a slight smirk as she turned his way. The way she grinned at Stan earlier reminded him of something else..Coach Oleander. The -former- madman behind the whole 'Psychic Death Tank' scheme. In truth, the Military Midget just had a lapse of sanity and concocted that scheme up as a result, though he's doing..better in a sense. No matter how much he liked Oleander, and Liked is a pretty strong word, he didn't want Another one running around. He kept his tone friendly enough to disguise the caution he felt as he addressed Louise. "Now hold on a minute, " He paused, gesturing to a second controller nearby. "The way I see it, we're all here for some reason. Might as well get to know each other a little bit while we're here, and as they say, 'Ladies First'. I'm not saying anything like 'revealing any huge secrets', just..small stuff."

Hiro walked into the room, his hands pocketed in his trenchcoat, and he was humming to himself. He had to admit that he was a little disappointed that the only girl here looked to be younger than himself. He always preferred older women, like Powergirl. He shook his head. He didn't come here looking for girls, after all. "Here there!" he greeted politely as he walked in. "No worries. Just thought I'd come in to see what toys they had here."
He ran over excitedly as he saw the video game. "So, what do you have here?" He observed the screen, smirking. "Let's see. War game based on more recent war technologies. Probably something my parents wouldn't let me play because of the language, but I could filter that stuff out anyways. Mind if I play? You playing story mode or vs. mode?" He was really curious about video games, having always built 3D models for his toys. He always wanted to get around to making video games.

"Whoa... this place is so cool!"
Blaze had taken to wandering the mansion shortly after he had arrived the day before, and he had ended up finding the game room at last. The German Shepherd was keen on exploring all it had to offer. Being a dog, he wasn't sure if he had what it took to play the video games with the rest of the kids... but he still did want to hang out with the other kids. All things considered, he probably should have been considered a teenager rather than a kid. But he was still a pup in terms of age. Blaze thought it would be okay if he hung out with the kids.
"What are you guys doing? Can I play?"

Stan smiled back as Raz gave him words of encouragement. "Thanks dude, maybe you're right, maybe my friends will show up." Stan then paused. "Uh, what's your name?"
But before the boy could catch his name, two more arrivals caught his attention. Another boy, probably a little older than himself, and a German Shepard pup. He looked at the boy first. "Um, hey dude." Stan greeted back, friendly. After hearing about his knowledge of video games, Stan was impressed, even though he wasn't much into technology, he did know a-lot about video games, something that this kid obviously knew, not that he didn't mind Raz, they both seemed cool to him so far.
"Sure thing, should I start it up, or do you want me to?" he asked before looking at Blaze. A talking dog, it was strange, but he was used to strange. "Were just playing video games." Stan stated, even ignoring the fact that Louise was ever there. "Wanna play?" he offered. It was unlikely that the puppy would play video games, because of his lack of hands, but in Stan's mind it never hurt to offer.

Raz smiled back to Stan, though his mind was already focused on two newcomers headed their way a split second before they both entered the room. Being Psychic was a half-and-half deal, in his opinion. On one hand, you could pick up the brainwaves of anything living and use that to track them down -with some difficulty, other Psychics were much easier due to a Psychic signature- if you had to, though Raz wasn't as trained as Sasha or Milla, so he had a bit of a limit as to how far he could track someone down. On another, being Psychic was dangerous. Even moreso if you were a Psychonaut. As Sasha stated after a mission-turned-undercover Op, 'I don't understand how the Non-psychics do it'.
As Raz opened his mouth as Stan asked for his name, the Psychic looked over to the two newcomers, first looking over to Blaze with a puzzled expression, though he greeted both with a casual wave. He could sense that one was an animal, but he wasn't expecting it to be a Puppy. Much less a talking puppy. Sure, they had Telekinetic bears and Pryo Cougars back at Whispering Rock, but they didn't really talk, even telepathic-wise.
He then looked over to the Boy in the trenchcoat who had walked in before Blaze had and smiled a little, first to Hiro, then to Blaze. They seemed friendly enough, unlike Louise. Raz glanced over his shoulder to see if Louise was still around, eyes narrowed a little before he looked back over to Hiro again, smiled, and motioned to another beanbag chair. "Sure, I think there's enough controllers around here for all of us. Nice goggles, by the way." He replied to Hiro before looking over at Blaze and smiled again. "So, I didn't know Puppies could talk. Or, where I'm from they don't.." He mused, then looking over to Stan again, remembering that the boy in the poofball hat had asked his name. "Oh, My name's Razputin, but everybody back home calls me Raz. What's your name?"

Blaze shrugged a bit at the comment regarding talking animals. It was probably just something that had to do with the mansion they were in. "I didn't think humans could actually understand us. Maybe it's got something to do with where we are, 'cause back home my human can't understand me." Blaze said. Weird as that was, he didn't think it was too weird to keep him from talking to humans. After all, that would just be silly. The humans could be friends with him too if they wanted, even if they probably were weirded out by the fact that animals could apparently speak coherently with humans.
"Name's Blaze, by the way. What's the game we're playing, anyway? I don't know if I'd be any good, but I could sure as heck try." Blaze said. The prospect of playing a video game just amused Blaze for some reason. He'd never tried to do anything like it before, not even with Lucky and the others when he had been on the farm with them, so it would be a new experience for the shepherd pup. Not that he was against new experiences, of course. Blaze was all for adventure and the like. He might have to take the opportunity to learn on the job, though. After all, a dog playing a game meant for humans would mean he'd have to figure out what to do as he went.
