We will gladly accept you with open arms, but first... what is your name?"[/style]
a tall, muscular blonde walked in the room backwards. he was teasing the receptionist with a charming, crooked smile before the door closed behind him and he swung around. nodding a greeting at the dean, he came behind the chair and leaned forward against it, hoping their meeting wasn't going to last longer than a few minutes. "i'm huxley! huxley tobias vincenti, i know it sounds really italian, but it's been a long time since our family has recognized that part of our heritage." he raised his eyebrows and wiggled at finger at the woman sitting down at her desk. "and i know what you're thinking, and yes, i am legal. turned eighteen on the twentieth of april." with a wink, he hopped over the back of the chair effortlessly and settled into the comfy chair.
huxley stood at a semi-average height of five foot, seven and weighed a whopping, one hundred and eighty pounds. it was obvious that he worked out a lot, even covered from head to toe in clothing. his hair was a dirty blonde that often changed to a chocolatey brown in the cooler months. his eyes were a twinkling bright blue, but were often obscured by heavy lids, which he describes as his bedroom eyes.

Now, before we can accept you, we must know what your records are. Can you tell them to me, please?"[/style]
hux nodded and rested his hands on the back of his head, comfortably. "you want the long version or the short version?" seeing the unamused look at the dean's face, he chuckled. "long version it is. i was born on a not-rainy day in seattle, washington. i say not-rainy because almost every day in seattle is rainy, but since i was born in april, it wasn't rainy. you know, it being springtime and all. at the time, my mom worked for the seattle zoo and my dad was a video game designer at microsoft. after i was born, though, my mom quit her job and decided to be a housewife. she says that it was all she ever wanted to do. when i was two, she popped out a pair of twins, two girls. then a year later, i got another sibling, but this time a little brother. as much as a i loved my little sisters and brother, i never really took on the protector job. it didn't suit me all that well. plus, they can take care of themselves. i had to.
my parents are an odd pair. my mother, taissa, is a beautiful woman. one of those ladies that guys would fight each other to the death for. blonde hair, blue eyes, beautiful personality, she loves being the center of attention and she's super social. but you know, my dad is a little bit different. he's sort of reserved, he likes to be alone, and he's a huge nerd. i mean, he's an attractive dude, but not someone that people just assumed my mom would end up with. they always had a happy marriage, at least from my point of view. they were affectionate and sweet on each other. it was quite disgusting." he chuckled then, rubbing the stubble that was growing rampant on his chin.
"the twins actually remind me a lot of mom and dad. alessa is very similar to mom, she's bubbly and she just shines whenever she walks into a room full of people. while ashlyn gets along much more with dad. she's actually really close with dad, closer than the rest of us. they can just sit and talk alone for hours. alessa and i are really close, while ash and get along but we aren't jumping for joy at the sight of each other. now, beckett. that little monster is a piece of work. he doesn't take after me like i thought he might. he's a sneaky, conniving, criminal of a boy. and he's just a mean person. very mean and manipulative. he's mastered the art of blackmail, i tell you." huxley adjusted himself in his seat. he missed his parents a lot. he would miss the twins, too, except that they were sent to ashes as well. he didn't miss beck in the least. he loved him but he didn't have to like him.
"so, as for the reason i'm here. my parents felt like this would be the best place for me, you know, to refine my life and stuff. my family has known about my gift since i was just a youngster, so it isn't totally why i'm here. if i hadn't been kicked out of my old high school for having a..." he struggled for the polite words, "little not-exactly-legitimate side business, my parents never would have shipped me out here just because i was different. they only found out about ashes and decided that it was a good idea because of my slip-up. but since they had to find me a new school, they took the opportunity of sending me, and the twins, here because it might offer us extra help."

Seeing as you'll be on the campus of Ashes, we must know what your personality is like. Are you gifted?"[/style]
"i'd say that i'm a rather charming," queue crooked smirk, "guy. i love being around girls. they're mostly who i surround myself with. they're all so beautiful and perky and i feed off of it. i'm very similar to alessa and my mom in the fact that i enjoy being the center of attention. i don't even care what i have to do to get it. if people's eyes are on me, then i'm happy as a kid in a candy shop. i won't, however, be spiteful of mean to get attention. i don't roll that way. plus, i'm not smart enough to be angry. like, you have to come up with good comebacks and stuff. see, my mind might be able to move things, but it really doesn't work all that fast when i'm put on the spot.
however, i'm also like dad and ash because i'm laid-back and could literally do nothing all day and be content with myself. you don't even want to see how i am on the weekends. i just veg out, eat food that's way too bad for me, and watch crappy reality tv. i mean, i don't need to be active at all. i'm very good at entertaining myself, because i've had to be. growing up in seattle, there wasn't all that much you could do outside that didn't involve heavy rain gear and an umbrella. i thrive from being inside.
i have to admit, i'm nosy and i love gossip. i'm like a girl in that retrospect. i'm also like a girl with the amount of time it takes me to perfect my look. i will take however long i need to to look as good as i do. i will not go anywhere in public looking like a slob, because that would just hinder my ability to snag chicks. and that is just unheard of. i love to shop, i love to do my hair, and i love to dress up. you should see me in a suit. hot damn. i guess you could also say i love myself. but i think that's an important thing to do, love yourself. because if you don't, no one will." he nodded as if he had said something completely genius and felt content with himself. "oh, and also! i hate bath tubs, working out even though i do it all of the time, and scarecrows. but, i love coffee, i love dogs, and the taste of her cherry chapstick." laughing, he slapped his knee dramatically.
"i am gifted, yes. very. i'm a telekinetic. i'm sure you understand what that means. you are dean or whatever. basically, i can move things with my mind. it's usually easy as long as it is something that i would physically be able to move. if it's heavier than i can lift by myself, it drains my energy really quickly. i can do it, i just don't like to because it makes me sick. but i've been told that i hover in my sleep. it's really weird and i don't remember doing it, but it's also kind of embarrassing. especially if a girl is over and she doesn't know about me. yeah..." he flicked his finger across the air, knocking the dean's pencil holder off of the desk but letting it hover in mid-air. he smirked and picked it up, letting it drop down nicely back on the surface of the desk.

When you come to Ashes, it is very easy to get mixed up on what you want to do later in life. Let's clear up that confusion now while we have the chance. What would you like to do in the future?"[/style]
huxley rolled his eyes and leaned forward, readying himself for leaving. "i hate this question. it's so cliche." rubbing his hands along his face, he took in a deep breath. "you know, i might not look it, but i love animals. i want to be a dog trainer and maybe open up my own facility or something. i know they don't make all that much money, but that's never been important to me. plus, when weed is legalized, i'll supplement my income by growing and selling medical marijuana. now, that you probably expected, huh?"
