Hello there! You look tired. Sleeping all right? No? Your dreams are coming true with alarming regularity, you say? You might be going crazy. In fact, I'm sure you are. You're what we at the Academy would call a Peep. You can see into the future.
What's the Academy?
It's like an insane asylum.
No, wait, don't go! It's a place where People like you can live in safety, with others of your kind.
People like me? What do you mean?
Oh, all sorts of ways. Peeps, Shapers, Fuses, Drears, Wingers... I could stand here all day explaining it to you. But if you come to the Academy, I can show you.
What's in it for me if I come with you?
You'll be safe from prying eyes, with others just like you. And the best supernaturalists in the world will be there to help you harness your exciting powers.
There's gotta be a catch.
Wellllll... some people think that we're, ahem, "ungodly," "sons of Satan," "witches," that sort of thing. Seventeenth-century minds, the lot of them. All caught up in Salem when they could be trying to help people. Sometimes they'll try to burn the Academy down, but that's rare, and they've never succeeded since 1822.
Is all of that true?
Well, I sure hope Satan isn't all of our fathers, 'cause there would be a heck of a lot of incest if he was. Some of those Goth kids, though, I don't know...
