No, I don't just need fresh oil in the morning. (open)

Up until recently maintained as a museum, the childhood home of the Braddock family has been pressed into service as additional housing and classroom space for the Institute. Additionally, the increased demands have led to the main ballroom being converted into a cafeteria for both the Institute and those University students on a meal plan. Student reactions have been mixed, and reports of paranormal activity are as of yet unsubstantiated.

"I'm Cal," he said. "Well, Calvin Strong, but... just Cal. And yeah, I could have, but I didn't think about it when it was happening. So I have to let them do it to me again if I want to figure out who it was."

"You should set a trap then," Dana says, "I could help you. I'll be the Lockheed to your Kitty Pryde."

"...Is there an analogy for that where, I dunno, I'm the guy?" Despite himself, Cal smiled a little.

"...I could be the Doug Ramsey to your Warlock," Dana says, "However, that would require us to eventually merge into one entity."

"...Are you coming on to me?" Cal deadpanned, fighting back a smirk.

"No," Dana says, "I am suggesting a plan of attack."

"We may need codenames."

"Uh, okay," Cal said, blinking. "So... like, what plan of attack do you mean? I mean... all I need to do is track the signal if they ping me again, right?"

"I... oh. Well, I guess we can do that, yeah," he admitted. He had been rather hoping that it wouldn't be happening again, but how likely was that to happen?

"You'll need to attract them somehow," Dana says, "What's their motivation?"
