September 9th: Walking the grounds

by **Charles Franklin** » Sat Jun 27, 2015 4:27 am

Charles wasn't really sure what to do with himself having just recently arrived on the XU campus and found himself just wandering the grounds aimlessly.

"Well, it's certanily... big," Charles said as he looked around.

"That's what she said," Violet says, overhearing Charles as he passes by. She laughs.

Charles smiled slightly, but didn't laugh.

"...In bed?" Charles asked weakly suddenly unsure of himself.

by **Violet Vilhjalmsson** » Sat Jun 27, 2015 4:38 am

"Or, y'now," Violet shrugs. "Wherever."

"What up?"

by **Charles Franklin** » Sat Jun 27, 2015 4:43 am

"Right...I Just got here and am trying to figure this place out," Charles said then stuck out his hand to Violet, "Oh, right I'm Charles."

by **Violet Vilhjalmsson** » Sat Jun 27, 2015 4:47 am

"Violet," Violet says, shaking his hand and smirking. "What's to figure out? There be mutants, right?"

by **Charles Franklin** » Sat Jun 27, 2015 4:49 am

"Yeah," Charles said, "Everything, really. Never really been around many other mutants."

by **Violet Vilhjalmsson** » Sat Jun 27, 2015 4:51 am

"Yeah?" Violet asks. "Where are you from?"

by **Charles Franklin** » Sat Jun 27, 2015 4:53 am

"Yeah, all the mutants I ever met were members of X-Corp," Charles said, "Chicago by way of Minnesota, you?"

by **Violet Vilhjalmsson** » Sat Jun 27, 2015 4:56 am

"No shit?" Violet says. "I'm from Thief River Falls."

by **Charles Franklin** » Sat Jun 27, 2015 5:00 am

"Saint Paul," Charles said sounding rather surprised, "Small world, eh? Never thought somebody from back home would be here or that they'd be the first person I met."

by **Violet Vilhjalmsson** » Sat Jun 27, 2015 5:01 am

"Eh," Violet shrugs. "I just figure a lot of weirdos come out of Minnesota, yeah?"

by **Charles Franklin** » Sat Jun 27, 2015 5:04 am

"Might be because we are stuck inside for six months out of the year," Charles smirked.

by **Violet Vilhjalmsson** » Sat Jun 27, 2015 5:12 am

"Fair point," Violet says. "So, need any help getting around?"

by **Charles Franklin** » Sat Jun 27, 2015 5:15 am

"Don't really know where anything is, so if it's not too much of a bother and you don't have anything pressing," Charles said.

by **Violet Vilhjalmsson** » Sat Jun 27, 2015 5:16 am

"Pfft. I make it a point to never do anything important," Violet says.

by **Charles Franklin** » Sat Jun 27, 2015 5:19 am

"Never?" Charles asked.

by **Violet Vilhjalmsson** » Sat Jun 27, 2015 5:25 am

"Never," Violet says. "Make it a point of pride to only do pointless shit."

by **Charles Franklin** » Sat Jun 27, 2015 5:28 am

"What's the...uh, pointless shit to do around here?" Charles asked, "aside from being a tour guide."

by **Violet Vilhjalmsson** » Sat Jun 27, 2015 5:30 am

"Well, there's a pub in the Student Union building," Violet says. "Common Room. Hedge Maze. Classes, if you're really bored or something."

by **Charles Franklin** » Sat Jun 27, 2015 5:36 am

"They actually have a hedge maze?" Charles asked

by **Violet Vilhjalmsson** » Sat Jun 27, 2015 5:37 am

"Hell yeah," Violet says. "Wanna check it out?"

by **Charles Franklin** » Sat Jun 27, 2015 5:39 am

"Seems like a good place to get lost for a bit, I guess," Charles said, "Wonder how many drunk students wander in and get lost?"

by **Violet Vilhjalmsson** » Sat Jun 27, 2015 5:40 am

"Well, I haven't yet, so it must be pretty easy to avoid," Violet says, starting to walk towards the hedge maze.

by **Charles Franklin** » Sat Jun 27, 2015 5:45 am

"That happens often?" Charles asked as he followed Violet.

by **Violet Vilhjalmsson** » Sat Jun 27, 2015 5:49 am

"What? Getting drunk and stumbling around campus?" Violet asks. "Every now and then."

by **Charles Franklin** » Sat Jun 27, 2015 5:05 pm

"Must be a bit easier with a pub on campus," Charles said, "Place must be interesting on a Friday night."

by **Violet Vilhjalmsson** » Sun Jun 28, 2015 1:08 am

"It's been a little slow so far," Violet says. "But I'm hoping things pick up soon."

by **Charles Franklin** » Sun Jun 28, 2015 1:39 am

"For some reason I feel like things picking up will involve lightning bolts and energy beams," Charles smiled.

by **Violet Vilhjalmsson** » Sun Jun 28, 2015 1:54 am

"Hey, whatever gets you off, that's your business," Violet teases.

by **Charles Franklin** » Sun Jun 28, 2015 2:01 am

Charles flushed and chuckled awkwardly.

"Uh... well hopefully everything is solidly built here," Charles said, "Probably wouldn't work too well if every time somebody got drunk the pub burned down."

by **Violet Vilhjalmsson** » Sun Jun 28, 2015 2:02 am

"Why? You burn down pubs a lot?" Violet asks.

by **Charles Franklin** » Sun Jun 28, 2015 2:06 am

"No, well I haven't done anything like that yet," Charles said, "Not that I would... It's just I usually spit acid or spikes or turn into a giant insect like thing."

by **Violet Vilhjalmsson** » Sun Jun 28, 2015 4:35 am

Violet laughs, "That sounds awesome!"

by **Charles Franklin** » Sun Jun 28, 2015 4:45 am

"The reaction I usually get involves more screaming and flailing," Charles said wryly. "How about you what do you do?"

by **Violet Vilhjalmsson** » Sun Jun 28, 2015 4:52 am

"I teleport through doors," Violet says. "It's great for getting in places where people don't want you to be."

by **Charles Franklin** » Sun Jun 28, 2015 4:57 am

"Sounds like it involves significantly fewer torches and pitchforks,"Charles said, "What kinds of places do you go to?"

by **Violet Vilhjalmsson** » Sun Jun 28, 2015 4:58 am

"All sorts of places," Violet says. "Amusement parks. Houses. Warehouses. Bank vaults."

"Wherever I want, really."

by **Charles Franklin** » Sun Jun 28, 2015 5:14 am

"You've teleported into a bank vault?" Charles asked sounding both impressed and horrified.

by **Violet Vilhjalmsson** » Sun Jun 28, 2015 5:19 am

"Yeah? How do you think I make money? A job?" Violet asks, laughing. "C'mon."
