"Oh really? Maybe someone should take you up on that," he suggests, also smirking. 

"They should, yeah!"

They finish the processing and print out the badges. Testing should start in a few minutes, they apologize for the delay. "Man, that was the worst when we are kids, but luckily Fernando watches way less TV now. And I up to watch anything that Thor - that's Thomas - watches."

That's fine, Gabriel can see that they need all hands available to get the chaos under control. 

"Admittedly neither of mine watch much TV either," he says, "So it's less of a victory than I made it out to be." 

He steps out of the nook and back into the lounge. Oh good, his brothers haven't vanished into a secluded room while he was gone, with or without company. They are here for a reason. 

Not for lack of wanting to - mostly just for lack of time. Leco looks away from Thomas to search for exits besides the front one, but notices Gabriel and Felix making their way back into the room first. Well, there goes that idea.

"I guess it'll have to wait until after they're done poking us with sticks, though," he says. "They're coming back." 

Felix pats Gabriel on the back.

"All goods things are worth waiting for."

"I'm not a very patient person most of the time, but I suppose I can wait for this," he agrees.

He looks over at Angél, playing with his water ball and alternating between watching their exchange and smiling at Fernando. 

"We can find a nice secluded room later and do some testing of our own." 

"Waiting, ugh," Angél sighs. In all the chaos, surely no one would notice if they wandered off for a bit?

Gabriel smiles at Felix, then catches sight of the look in Angél's eyes as they approach the couch. Rolling his own, he lifts his hand and makes a little beckoning motion. 

Angél starts, hand going up to clap over his ear. He drops the water ball on the couch between his legs.

"What was that for!"

"Damn," Gabriel says, deadpan. "I was hoping it would land on your crotch. Thought you could use a little cooling down."

"I disagree."

"Gosh, Thor, already?"

"Can you make the water evaporate from the fabric?" Fernando asks mildly.

Angél nods, still rubbing his ear. The water rises up from the couch to form into a ball again. He eyes Gabriel's perfectly dry shirt speculatively, then shrugs - no harm done, no  need for vengeance. He goes back to playing with his water, making shapes out of it. 

"Thor?" Leco asks. His fingers spark, "Nice nickname," he says. 

"We are here to do something," Gabriel points out, "And the registrar mentioned that they'd be ready in a few minutes." 

"Very nice, even if not quite fitting given my gift. Also, cool gift." He tells Leco.

"Your names are also awfully close to the beginning of the alphabet, too. Assuming that they are doing any order at all you guys are either be called very early or very late because you came later."

"Thanks," he says, snorting, "It's not good for much." 

"I like it," Angél comments. 

"Well, we'll see," Gabriel tells Fernando. "Either way some of us will be called much later, assuming they are using either of those orders." 

That's indeed the case.

Testing in this case involves a lot of magical prodding. Including the casting of spells both by themselves and together. Possibly to see if there is any special magical interaction between the multiples. This takes most of the day. There is some power testing involved as well, not to figure out the limits of their powers, just their behavior and mechanisms.

And there is a short interview afterwards (they had already answered a large questionnaire before even coming in) too, but nothing to invasive.

They may spot the Solano triplets on occasion, but there is no opportunity to stop and chat.

Aw, that's too bad. They'll have to catch them after the testing is done. 

Angél moves water places. He can't manipulate anything but water - if he tries to manipulate another water-containing liquid, he just rips the water out of it. Even that doesn't work if the material is too solid. Non-water things floating in water he takes control of get left behind, as well. 

He also does a few water purification spells on his own, and then he and his brothers cast some other spells for the scientists.
