Indoor Weather

Wanda stretched out on one of the benches in the Sauna, basking in the heat and steam, looking incredibly relaxed for once.

A much less relaxed looking Nika steps into the room and puts the towel she was wearing down on one of the benches. She just got done working out and is still pretty tense, her muscles prominent under her skin. She rolls her shoulders and sits down, giving Wanda a curt nod. "Hey."

Wanda glances towards Nika and then looks away. "Hello. I haven't seen you around much before. New?"

"Relatively, yes. Nika Novak, pleased to meet you." she says. She doesn't seem too concerned about modesty. It's a sauna after all and she almost seems a little confused that Wanda is avoiding looking at her as they talk.

Wanda glances back in her direction and seeing that Nika doesn't seem to care, she maintains her gaze. "Wanda Johansson. I can't quite place your accent. Where are you from?"

"Difficult, I believe is the polite term. But there's plenty to be proud of if you know where to look. The people don't have much, but they cherish what they do. The country still exists, that alone speaks for our tenacity." she smirks slightly.

Wanda seems to wrack her brain and then says, "It's next door to Latveria, right? I can see how that would cause a lot of difficulties."

"It's possible. Some of the people who came here came from places that are unsafe for mutants like Russia or the United States, so the university tries to provide them a sort of haven if possible. At least, that's the theory at any rate."
