Hiya Rick. Name's Ava! Welcome to BA! My plotter is HERE if you'd like to give it a look. I currently have three characters: Levi, Callie, & Victoria.
Levi:
Levi is my non-powered local. He was a bit lost in life at one point and right now he likes to think he has some how figured everything out (he hasn't). He came from a big family where everyone but him has powers. So he considers himself a lone wolf (ironic with his last name). He is friendly to most, but refrains from revealing anything of his past. If they were to meet, it would have to be around town. He has a dislike for the school considering his parents used work there, and well he hates his parents. He's been a bit more relieved now that his family has left Kalispell, but even with them gone they still haunt him.
Callie:
Callie is my college student. She is a friendly (sometimes overly, borderline nosy and intrusive) southern gal who loves the outdoors and trying to help people. She can be meddlesome, and will work her way into anyone's personal life best as she can. All with good intentions of course.
Victoria:
Victoria is my bitchy French teacher. She really doesn't like anyone (more so because she thinks she's better than everyone). She's condescending, rude, and has a bit of an inflated ego (totally justifiable on her part of course). If anything, she's doing the Academy and it's students a favor by gracing them with her presence and knowledge.
I don't have any super specific plots right now, I'm really open to anything. If you have any ideas and are interested let me know either here or you can PM on any of my accounts on here. I look forward to threading with you!

Hey there Ava! Thanks for the welcome.
Already it looks like Levi and Richard would have something in common. Richard doesn't so much as hate his parents as he does ignore them like they did when Richard was younger. He's also polite but not that great in social situations. He tends to avoid people, but he adventures around town a lot to find inspiration for his books. Meeting Levi could be very possible. Levi could also run into Andrew since he works as a mechanic as well.
Callie would make for a great counter to Andrew since he's mainly apathetic to others. He's not unfriendly, but he generally doesn't care too much for people. He also tends to shun help because he became extremely independent from a young age. He had to raise himself since his father wouldn't. He often hangs around school or, as mentioned above, the mechanic shop.
Victoria and Andrew would be an intriguing mix and I'm not entirely sure how the thread would go. From the sound of it they're both pretty apathetic. Although Andrew won't usually act mean towards anyone. More dismissive if anything. I'll admit I don't have as much of an idea for her, although she sounds like a neat character.
I'd love any of these threads and could start some of them if you'd like. Which would you want first?

I love all of these ideas! I see you have an open already with Andrew so I might jump on that one with Callie if that's okay. For the others we can do them too if you like I don't have a problem with that! I'm easy. =)

That's fine! I can make the thread between Levi and Richard in a snap. Would you be able to start the one between Victoria and Andrew? Otherwise I could try my hand at starting it. If we want a thread between Levi and Andrew I could probably start that one too.

Hello sir, my online sister Mel has nothing but good things to say about you, so I might as well so you my happy little crew, if you have the time or inclination to play around with them, of course good sir.
Ellen Banks- More or less the queen bitch of BA. Rude, blunt and very likely to turn her nose up at anyone and closet lesbian, more or less a mean girl with a secret heart of gold that just generally finds most people annoying and just generally snidey with most people as a whole. She's a mean one but her bark is worse than her bite. I assure you.
Jack McCarthy- Jack Mccarthy....well, he's basically a strange, dramatic, paranoid and generally an over excited in general think of him like a big overly big mouth overly excited labrador who I'd assume would annoy both your boys greatly (And he also is the BFF of Lux >>)
Bell Connelly- Bell is literally the nicest sweetest girl you'll ever likely to meet, yeah she's more or less a Disney princess if not a little clumsy, she has more or less has the idyllic viewpoint that everyone is a good person, regardless of who they are. She likes everyone more or less. and at the same time, she's more or less a total book dork, more likely to curl up with a big glass of milk and novel every weekend night then actually going out
Elizabeth Fisher- And then there's this bitch....Elizabeth is the exact opposite of Bell in almost every way, Leader of the AMA -Anti-Mutant Association- She's bigoted, racist, sexist, rude and altogether a condescending mess dressed up in a sickly sweet demeanour
Michelle Horrorwitz: One of the chief shrinks at the school, she uses her power -The ability to revert people back to a child-like mindset- In order to get people to open up and she can figure out the root of their disorders, she's a cold and clinical gal and she has difficulty letting her hair down and separating her work from play

Hey! Glad to know I haven't done anything worthy of bad things to say about me. I'd definitely have the time and inclination to play with your merry little band.
I must say that Jack and Andrew immediately strikes me as a thread with a huge amount of potential for some hilarity. Andrew likes his routine and tends to dislike anything that disrupts it or annoys him. If Jack is as big a loudmouth as you say, then I could see Andrew getting pretty annoyed pretty fast. Richard would likely act the same, but he'd likely ignore the boy and leave.
Ironically Michelle shares some similarities with Andrew in how they can't separate work from play so well. As mentioned above, he likes routine and schedules breaks for his health rather than for fun. Doesn't mean he doesn't have it, but it's hard to tell when he's feeling anything since he keeps everything locked up. He might even be an interesting subject for Michelle because of his tough childhood and family issues. Richard would likely be the same, although he might shy from her more if she was trying to get inside his head.
Bell and Richard seem like they could have an interesting thread. Since Richard is a novelist the one true passion he has is for writing and books. Although getting him to talk about his own works would be difficult, he'd have no problem relating and talking about other works. It's one of the few things he can "easily" open up to. Andrew would be interesting with her as well because while he's polite, he's not sweet. He's apathetic. He really doesn't care all that much for others, and trusts no one but himself. Bell appears to be the exact opposite so that could be an interesting dynamic.
As for Ellen and Elizabeth, they both seem like fascinating characters. Unfortunately I don't have any real clue how their threads would go with either of my boys, but I could see any combination of the four meeting since Andrew is a mechanic in town and Richard often wanders around to find inspiration. If you've got any solid ideas here, I'm down to give them a shot.

Hiya Rick! We've already started threading, but I wanted to say hi and introduce myself I'm Trix (keeper of way too many characters)
Quinn/Rick - Loving this thread between them! I think that these two are definitely going to be decent friends, and I emphasize decent because I feel like that's the only way that they'd be able to describe their friendships with both of them so reserved. They already seem to have awesome understanding of each other and although nothing truly deep has come out, I still feel like that's where their depth lies. The depth of not revealing too much in the first encounter. If we do go further with them, in later threads, I think we could do a lot with that. Oh and she low-key thinks he's really attractive xD but that's just a side-bar.
Dean/Andrew - Dean is a recruiter at Bellefonte. He's a doofus, really outgoing and dorky, but also likes getting to know everyone around the school. If you're looking for any kind of mentor of any kind or just wanted to put a face to who recruited Andrew, feel free to snag up Dean! Especially with how Andrew sort of has a rough history with father figures and whatnot, I could see Dean trying to at least give him someone to rely on in that sense.

Hey Trix! Nice to officially meet you.
I totally agree on Quinn and Richard. It's probably going to take some time for Richard to really mention anything deep about himself, but since Quinn is reserved too I imagine she'd be the same. It just allows for more threads between them to get to know each other, which is absolutely fine by me. He thinks she's definitely attractive but for Richard it's more of an acknowledgement than anything else. He's not that great with romantic feelings mainly since he doesn't understand them.
Dean sounds like he'd be a really interesting character to meet Andrew. I'd be down with Dean recruiting Andrew and bringing him to the school. That way Andrew would at least be a little more open towards Dean since he'd feel indebted to him. Andrew doesn't really have a childhood in his own either. Or a father for that matter. It might be tough but Dean would have the best bet of getting to Andrew if you want to make him the recruiter who fetched him. I'd be down for threads between the two.
I don't have any solid ideas of plots for the others right now, but I know that Andrew[/i] is the most likely to run into any of them since he goes to the school. If you've got anyone you think would play off his personality well or annoy him to bits, then I'd be fine with some threads.
