Ye Olde Cab Faire

Up until recently maintained as a museum, the childhood home of the Braddock family has been pressed into service as classroom space for the University. Additionally, the increased demands have led to the main ballroom being converted into a cafeteria for University students on a meal plan. The old library has been bolstered with college textbooks.

"I'll be sure to avoid impertinent questions this evening. Does she often find herself in trouble then?" Aiden asked with a smile.

"I'll be just fine. After all, Nika is very capable. She always seems to find a way to keep up, no matter what. Almost, at least," she said, with a twinkle in her golden eye.

"A story for later perhaps?" Aiden asked. "She must be quite capable if she's your entire entourage."

"I insisted as such. I am here to have as close to a normal college experience as possible, not to be...handled.

I trust Nika with my life, but I feel she will be very bored here."

"I guarded an Ambassador under exciting circumstances and wouod have preferred boredom," Aiden said before changing topics. "I think you'll find the students here disinterested, sometimes intensely so, in titles. You'll be just another mutant in the crowd."

"And that's one of the key reasons why I picked here, of all places. Somewhere where I can just be Katarina and not have the weight of a country on my shoulders."

"Hopefully you can, but I wonder if we truly can escape those responsibilities," Aiden said, "Though perhaps my experience is different because Genosha will always be a... polarizing nation and it feels like people are waiting for me to start enacting a plan for world domination."

"And, are you?" she said, chuckling slightly.

"You'll forgive me if I find those rumors somewhat quaint. We've neighbor Latveria, so we know what true attempts at domination are."

There was far off look in Aiden's eyes as he considered what Katarina had said, but he quickly hid it behind a smile.

"I certainly am not," Aiden smiled. "That sounds quite precarious given the belligerent nature of Latveria's government. Is international politics what you plan to study here?"

"My parents were quite... insistent on my studying something 'useful'," Aiden said complete with an air quotes gesture. "Have you decided what you'll be studying then? Will Nika also be considered a student here?"

"I'm afraid her schedule will be partially dictated by my own, which is a shame, really, but unavoidable.

I'm looking for a well-rounded liberal arts education, so art, music, literature, things of that nature."

"Two Renaissance women will hardly be a shame," Aiden smiled. "I'm glad you will be able to pursue your interests as well, Nika. Will you be looking at the x-team program as well?"

Nika nods. "Absolutely. And it's one thing to learn some basic self-defense, be familiar with your power, another to learn how to fight." she says with an almost apologetic look at Katarina. This line of thinking is not really something the princess should even have to concern herself with.

Aiden dug in a pocket and wrote down his number on two pieces of paper from a small notebook he pulled from a coat pocket. He held the pieces of paper out to Katarina and Nika once he'd finished writing down the number.

"Most definitely," Aiden smiled. "Let me know a time that you're free."
