Axel glanced up at the girl who had walked into the room, a small smile tugging the corners of his lips up in greeting. He hadn't moved from his chair, his hands still huddled in his hoodie's pockets as his gaze flitted around the room once again.

Marlo continued to walk across the room, her beat up converse's shoelaces untied and probably posing a tripping hazard. A bright smile registered on her face as she sat down, squirming in her seat from the excitement of meeting new people.
(May I join?)
(Yep.)
Luka waved at the new girl, grin still present on his face. "Hiya! My name's Luka and I fall asleep a lot which is why I'm here."
Marlo turned towards the boy, a bright grin registering on her face. "I-I'm deaf. My name is Marlo," She explained, stumbling over her words as she tapped the hearing aid in her left ear.
(gonna just throw Kaz in and see what happens)
Kaz took a deep breath, mentally cursing himself as he stood outside the door. He absolutely, positively did not want to go to a support group, but his cousin had forced him to after the incident. With a sigh he pushed the door open, taking a seat in the back corner silently
"Sorry about that." He patted the seat next to him, "Sit next to me?"
Vaughn had thrown a glare over his shoulder at the guard who had shoved at his shoulders before continuing to look around the room. The tension in his body did drain a tad when he noticed that a familiar face had come into the room. He walked over and sat next to Kaz, a heavy frown on his features. “What are you doing here?”
Marlo nodded quickly at moved towards Luka, sitting down in the seat next to him and brushing a lock of light hair behind her ear. "What are we doing here?" She asked slowly, trying to make sure that her words were formed correctly.
Lana yawned, bored out of her mind. This so called support group was fairly quiet. She looked around for someone to speak to.
"Axel, do you know sign language?" Luka turned towards him and held up one finger to the girl, like, hold on for a second.
Thorn looked around. The group seemed to be splitting off into pairs. As expected, and also as expected she was left all alone. She sighed and sunk back into her corner, red eyes slightly a glow.
(THORN AND LANA!!)
(ahem, talk)
Kaz turned to look at Vaughn, his scowl quickly turning to a smile at the sight of him. "Michael forced me to come. Said I had serious issues, even for us. Which is like, impossible, but it's whatever."
Lana noticed some girl sitting in the corner, her eyes…reddish. Were those…ah. She had to ask. She headed over, her eyes sparkling. "Are you wearing colored contacts?" she asked.
Thorn looked at the girl who had approached her. She spoke, "Uh no. These are my natural eyes. I wish they were contacts."
"Axel, do you know sign language?" Luka turned towards him and held up one finger to the girl, like, hold on for a second.
"A bit," Axel answered, leaning forward in his wheelchair to face the girl who was looking at him with wide, clear grey eyes. 'We are talking about our problems. My name is Axel.' The girl nodded quickly in excitement, a big grin on her face as she signed her own name out. 'My name is Marlo.'
"Oh my God," Lana said excitedly, "they're awesome! You could do some really cool cosplay or costumes with eyes like those. They're so pretty."
“What’d you do this time, huh?” Vaughn questioned, leaning his elbows against his knees. His posture was slouched, eyes glancing away from Kaz for a moment to flick around the room.
"God, you're just the gift that keeps on giving, aren't you?" Luka turned back towards Marlo after shooting a smile at Axel.
"A particularly nasty bar fight and an attempted suicide," Kaz admitted grudgingly, looking away from Vaughn as he said so. His face had been plastered all across the news when it had happened, irritation creeping into his mind at the memory of his face on the newsfeed
"Y-yeah, I guess." Axel shrugged, a faint blush spreading across his cheeks as he stuck his hands back into his hoodie.
"I can talk out loud. The nurses want me to practice anyways," Marlo explained slowly, still finding it odd that she couldn't hear her own voice as she spoke, subconsciously tugging on the colorful socks she was wearing. "What happened to you two?"
Luka ran a hand through his hair. "I have narcolepsy. It means that I fall asleep at random times. It's not as fun as it sounds. Once, I was in the cafeteria, and I was walking with my food, BAM! I black out, five minutes later I wake up, covered in my spaghetti."

“Seriously? Goddamnit, Kaz. You should have called me or something, I do have a period of time that I can access a phone in this hellhole,” Vaughn said, still frowning as he turned his attention back to Kaz.
“I have severe depression.” River spoke up
Luka ran a hand through his hair. "I have narcolepsy. It means that I fall asleep at random times. It's not as fun as it sounds. Once, I was in the cafeteria, and I was walking with my food, BAM! I black out, five minutes later I wake up, covered in my spaghetti."
Axel chuckled lightly at the thought of waking up with spaghetti on his face as he ran a hand through his curly hair. Maybe he should have cut it when the nurse proposed to, now that it reached to below his ears. "Well, I had osteosarcoma cancer, so I lost my whole left leg." He explained, patting his grey sweatpants. "And you?"
Marlo glanced down at his leg, wondering what the prosthetic looked like. "I lost my hearing at the Boston Marathon Bombing," She explained slowly, her smile turning into a small frown at the thought.
"Eh, who gives a shit. I certainly didn't at the time," Kaz grumbled, folding his arms across his chest as he stared at the floor. He was absolutely not going to look at Vaughn as he talked about how he had tried to kill himself, no thank you. He would rather not have one of the only friends he had look at him like he was nothing
"Well. There's one reason I didn't want to come. I don't know how to react to other people's specialties." Luka patted Marlo's knee. "I want you to know that you are just as valid and important as anyone else, even though normal isn't in your vocabulary."
