I2DT - Fresh off the Plane

by **Amy Myers** » Tue Oct 20, 2015 8:00 pm

Amy nervously looks up at the school's gate from the passenger seat of Vinny's crummy bus that (somehow) managed to take them from Heathrow to here. She opens up the door and climbs out of her seat to get a better look at the grounds and the bits of the manor visible from the gate.

"Holy crap, look at this place?"

by **Vinny Patterson** » Tue Oct 20, 2015 9:25 pm

"Eh, not too shabby, ain't it? Just like the brochures."

by **Amy Myers** » Tue Oct 20, 2015 9:48 pm

"Yeah but... I didn't think it'd actually look like that. It's different in a brochure."

by **Vinny Patterson** » Tue Oct 20, 2015 10:19 pm

"Eh, a photo is a photo, Amy. What, you think they got some sorta mutant photoshop up in here?"

by **Amy Myers** » Wed Oct 21, 2015 3:08 am

"Well no, but it's just different actually being somewhere and looking at it than just seeing it in a picture. Makes it more... real."

by **Vinny Patterson** » Wed Oct 21, 2015 6:35 am

"I've never been to Australia, but I've never doubted that those pictures of kangaroos and stuff are real, yeah?"

by **Amy Myers** » Wed Oct 21, 2015 3:09 pm

"Duh. But I bet you'd be sounding different if one bounced up to you and kicked you in the chin." she teases.

by **Vinny Patterson** » Thu Oct 22, 2015 5:32 am

"Nah, I'd totally mess it up. No big deal," he laughed.

by **Amy Myers** » Thu Oct 22, 2015 2:33 pm

"I'd ask you to prove it, but I'm worried you're find a zoo and actually do it." she chuckles and looks for a buzzer for the gate. No one answers except for the camera in the intercom briefly buzzing as it adjusts it's focus, then the gates begins to open.

Amy jumps a little, having expected a voice instead of the gate moving right away.

"I guess they're expecting us..."

by **Vinny Patterson** » Thu Oct 22, 2015 8:22 pm

"Amy, they ain't EVER expectin' someone like us," Vinny joked.

by **Amy Myers** » Thu Oct 22, 2015 8:41 pm

"Like you maybe. Come on, let's go." she says, climbing back into the van.

by **Vinny Patterson** » Thu Oct 22, 2015 8:44 pm

"Alright, Xaviers, here we come!"

The engine cranked, but did not turn over.

by **Amy Myers** » Thu Oct 22, 2015 8:47 pm

"Well, the van made it almost all the way."

by **Vinny Patterson** » Thu Oct 22, 2015 8:51 pm

"Oh come on baby, so close," Vinny moaned, trying to start 'er up again.

by **Amy Myers** » Thu Oct 22, 2015 9:02 pm

"Do I need to get out and push?"

by **Vinny Patterson** » Thu Oct 22, 2015 9:15 pm

"No no no nonono. I can get it, I can get it I can...

Yes. Yes you do."

by **Amy Myers** » Thu Oct 22, 2015 9:50 pm

Amy sighs and climbs back out, getting behind the van and waiting for Vinny's signal before she starts pushing the piece of crap van.

by **Vinny Patterson** » Thu Oct 22, 2015 10:08 pm

"And...on we go to Xaviers!"

by **Amy Myers** » Thu Oct 22, 2015 11:34 pm

"You're going. I'm pushing." she says as the van slowly rolls through the gates and up the driveway.

by **Vinny Patterson** » Thu Oct 22, 2015 11:47 pm

"Details. Mush and nonsense. Onwards!"

by **Amy Myers** » Fri Oct 23, 2015 12:27 am

"That'll have to do. You can figure out the rest yourself." she says, leaving the van sitting halfway down the driveway and walking around to the front.

by **Vinny Patterson** » Fri Oct 23, 2015 3:12 am

"Bah! Bah, I say!"

by **Amy Myers** » Fri Oct 23, 2015 4:47 am

"Be glad it made it this far."

by **Vinny Patterson** » Fri Oct 23, 2015 5:15 am

"Baaaaah!"

by **Amy Myers** » Fri Oct 23, 2015 5:35 am

"I feel like you're not appreciating the miracle we've witnessed." she jokes as she climbs back into the car and into the back to gather up her bags.

by **Vinny Patterson** » Fri Oct 23, 2015 7:57 am

"I tells ya, I'm going to get this thing purring like a kitten again."

by **Amy Myers** » Sat Oct 24, 2015 3:43 am

"Just get your stuff. Maybe they'll even have someone to tow your quote-unquote automobile out of the driveway."

by **Toshiro Narumi** » Sat Oct 24, 2015 7:18 pm

"Oh my God," Tosh chuckled as he came around the bus, "I haven't seen one of these in person in forever."

by **Vinny Patterson** » Mon Oct 26, 2015 6:03 pm

"What, an American?" Vinny asked from the driver's seat.

by **Amy Myers** » Mon Oct 26, 2015 6:34 pm

Amy is busy pulling luggage out, one bag coming to rest on the ledge of the open side-door when Tosh speaks up.

"Oh. Hi!" Amy gets out as she spins around towards the unfamiliar voice.

by **Toshiro Narumi** » Mon Oct 26, 2015 6:58 pm

"No. A hippie van. It's already mostly Americans here."

"Hey. Guess I'm the welcome wagon. Name's Tosh."

by **Vinny Patterson** » Mon Oct 26, 2015 7:04 pm

"Eyo, Tosh. I'm Vinny."

by **Amy Myers** » Mon Oct 26, 2015 7:57 pm

"I'm Amy. Guess you are. I think we missed the banner though." she chuckles nervously.

by **Toshiro Narumi** » Mon Oct 26, 2015 8:15 pm

"I told administration the invisible banner was a bad idea, but noooo," he joked.

by **Vinny Patterson** » Mon Oct 26, 2015 8:19 pm

"...See, this is a weird school, so, like, you being serious right now?"

by **Amy Myers** » Mon Oct 26, 2015 8:29 pm

"There's not actually invisible stuff around, right?"

by **Toshiro Narumi** » Mon Oct 26, 2015 8:38 pm

"Nope. Well, okay, there is the one invisible student."

by **Vinny Patterson** » Mon Oct 26, 2015 8:41 pm

"How would you know?"

by **Amy Myers** » Mon Oct 26, 2015 8:45 pm

At the mention of an invisible student Amy looks around like an idiot, then promptly stops and hopes nobody saw that.

by **Toshiro Narumi** » Mon Oct 26, 2015 11:48 pm

"Guess I wouldn't," he said. "So... welcome to Mutant U, home of the fightin' X-Men, etcetera and so on."
