[X-Men: New Class] Welcome, New Students!

It didn't happen... but it WOULD HAVE BEEN AWESOME

[X-Men: New Class] Welcome, New Students!

Postby Tereza Rozanov » Mon Mar 19, 2018 11:54 pm

A giant banner of some strange material displays the message "Welcome, New Students!". Contrary to most banners, the image isn't static an occasionally small, happy animations play beside the message or in the margins.

Tables of refreshments are laid out and people are milling around them. Tereza is off to one side, having a conversation with a girl about 13 or 14. The girl bears a family resemblance to Tereza though her hair is pixie-short. A few more stern directives from Tereza and the girl bounds off to talk to some of the other new students as Tereza crosses her arms and watches.

A familiar, unusual figure strolls about leisurely until it eventually makes it's way to Tereza, but it doesn't look at her. Merely joins her side to watch the new students.

"Fresh fish." She states plainly, as is her straight-man way.

"If you want to look at them that way," Tereza comments. "They'll at least get the start that some of us didn't."

Her nihilism hadn't gotten better with age. Quite the opposite actually.

Still, with age came wisdom. Wisdom to know when to keep her mouth shut and not to shit all over Tereza's optimism.

"Perhaps, yes.

Except for me of course. My life was always awesome. None of them will get to have my level of life experiences." She gloated playfully with a big stupid grin from behind her round lenses.

What about you? Your job is going to be a lot harder than mine. Sure you are ready to lead the charge against giant robots and space aliens?"

"With teenagers to look after, no, I'm not. But this pays better than the non-sponsored hero gig. And she needs this," she said, nodding her head in the girl's direction.

"Fourteen, as far as we can tell. I'd like to show Russia a few new sanctions for that program they had her in," Tereza says as her fingernails sharpen slightly. She goes back to rubbing at one particular tattoo on her left hand, a stylized raven resting on the hilt of a sword.

As if on queue with the topic of children, a little blonde gremlin that had been sneaking up behind the group of women drew close enough to give Chisaki a kick in the tush. Though at her small size it didn't carry a whole lot of force. Her successful ninja attack resulted in a lot of stifled giggling. Who left Abigail unattended?

Well her mother was busy carrying in boxes to resupply the snack table, because an occasion like this warranted colourful treats. Many students had never been this far away from home before, they needed a little something to smile about.

Chisaki simultaneously made a face that would curdle milk while the grass around Abigail's feet swallowed up the offending appendage to the ankle in a sinkhole.

"Speaking of troublemakers-" She said to Sam and Tereza.

"-Tiny Rosenhof did not have the good fortune of X-Team members as her parents, so she does not understand how to attack and retreat. She has been trained poorly." Chisaki states as if she doesn't realize the child is still there trapped behind her.

The girl in the pink framed glasses squealed and giggled as she was caught in more ways than one, though it wasn't too long before that gave way to frustrated grunts in her attempts to escape. And then came the whining.

"Nnnggg! Lemme goooooooo! S'not faiiiiiiir!"

"Of course you are organic." She replies with her back still turned. Now though she was doing it so that Abigail didn't catch on that she was being messed with.

"Nuh uh! Eggs are grain fed and got no antsy bionics. I'm full of dino nuggies and I got a needle two weeks ago 'cause I stepped on a nail." Well one couldn't blame Abigail for being argumentative, it's not like there were many other options for her right then.
