Long Overdue Explanations

by **Roland Sackville** » Thu Mar 28, 2013 2:12 pm

Professor Sackville, for once, was early for XI's history class, looking quite nervous, but otherwise resigned to his fate.

Brigid sat down, and gave the professor a sheepish wave.

by **Kay Haddock** » Thu Mar 28, 2013 2:32 pm

Kay sits down next to her, still wondering if they're going to be yelled at finally.

by **Roland Sackville** » Thu Mar 28, 2013 2:55 pm

"You don't suppose you are the only two who are going to show up, do you?" he half-grinned.

by **Haley Crusek** » Thu Mar 28, 2013 4:35 pm

"Nope," Haley smirked as she bounced into class and took her seat. "I predict perfect attendance today."

by **Roland Sackville** » Thu Mar 28, 2013 4:48 pm

"First time for everything, I suppose."

by **Steve Jones** » Thu Mar 28, 2013 7:43 pm

Steve entered and took a seat with a yawn.

by **Theresa McMasters** » Thu Mar 28, 2013 8:19 pm

Theresa shuffled in as well, settling down in her usual spot.

Regan drifted through the wall, hovering above her desk lazily.

by **Aisha Khan** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 12:24 am

Aisha came in and took her seat.

by **Roland Sackville** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 2:29 pm

"Right, then.

After, erm, last week's...incident, I understand that there have been a number of...rumors flying around about me and my activities.

That, and I got torn a proverbial new asshole by the headmistress about being secretive.

So, I thought we'd put away the textbooks for today, as I tried to clear...erm...tried to make things a little less...opaque.

Erm.....sorry, I'm not very good at this."

He was clearly uncomfortable, and loosened his tie.

by **Regan Rourke** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 2:35 pm

"If you're going to start stripping, I'm leaving," Regan says.

by **Roland Sackville** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 2:39 pm

"I've heard differently," Roland shot back.

by **Haley Crusek** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 2:43 pm

Haley stifled laughter.

by **Kay Haddock** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 2:45 pm

"What was in the crate?" Kay gathers her courage and blurts out the question most prominently on her mind.

by **Roland Sackville** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 3:09 pm

"The contents of the crate were...varied. But I brought one of them up here for you to look at.

This is a canopic jar. Can anyone tell me what one of these are?"

by **Haley Crusek** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 3:11 pm

"Those things the guys in pyramids used...uh. Its got those things they used To write and stuff on it. And like. That thing...it holds their guts after they were mummies?"

by **Roland Sackville** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 3:47 pm

"...I'm going to call that close enough.

This particular one is in the shape of Imseti, the god of the South, and contains what is, by now, only the remains of what once was a liver. It is part of a complete set, the rest of which were also among the items in the box, and very, very illegal to import into England, as I believe they consider it looting."

by **Haley Crusek** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 3:51 pm

"....why do you want dead people parts? Just part of that collection of stuff you keep under the m....er...nothing," she quickly sank in her chair.

by **Steve Jones** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 3:52 pm

"Collection?" Steve asked.

by **Roland Sackville** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 3:53 pm

"Yes, it had come to my attention that several of you have found my office underneath the maze, and that my skills in electrical wiring were not quite up to the level I thought they were."

by **Kay Haddock** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 4:20 pm

"You have a secret office?" That is so awesome...

by **Regan Rourke** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 4:30 pm

"I knew I should've been wandering around underground."

by **Steve Jones** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 4:44 pm

"And the ancient organs?"

by **Regan Rourke** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 4:45 pm

"I'm guessing he bathes in them to stay young."

by **Roland Sackville** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 5:03 pm

"You're closer than you might think, Regan.

The organs, and the mummy, belong to my wife."

by **Regan Rourke** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 5:05 pm

"Ewww," Regan says, "That's awesome."

by **Haley Crusek** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 5:11 pm

"The...but that was like five hundred years ago..."

by **Regan Rourke** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 5:13 pm

"He's obviously an Egyptian Dracula."

by **Roland Sackville** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 5:15 pm

"Five hun..." Roland blinked. "...when do you think the Pyramids were a thing?"

by **Brigid Plunder** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 5:16 pm

"...how old are you, really?"

by **Roland Sackville** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 8:19 pm

"I think I lost count, somewhere in there. I'm a bit over 3,000 years old, believe it or not.

And, uh, you SHOULD believe it. Because it's, um, true. And whatnot."

by **Regan Rourke** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 8:23 pm

"The dracula theory is looking better and better."

by **Kay Haddock** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 8:27 pm

"What? Wow..." Kay mumbles.

by **Calvin Strong** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 9:03 pm

"Yeah, so... uh... all that stuff under the mansion... that wasn't stolen from museums then?"

by **Roland Sackville** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 9:10 pm

"None of it was stolen!

...None of it was stolen recently."

by **Calvin Strong** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 9:14 pm

Cal, actually, looked disappointed by this.

by **Haley Crusek** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 9:15 pm

"So...your mutant power is just being old?"

by **Regan Rourke** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 9:20 pm

"And the power of swords," Regan says, "He's a Highlander."

by **Kay Haddock** » Fri Mar 29, 2013 9:31 pm

"Whoa, I think you're right!"
