Sept 8 - Common Room - Not your usual homework

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.

"Who was it with? I'll bet he was really cute," Murphy says. "All the guys here are pretty cute. It's kind of amazing."

Brigid snerks at Murphy going ten steps ahead and grins.

"Sounds like you really hit it off."

"I think we did hit it off. It was a she... and um..." Theresa scratched her head in an uncomfortable gesture, looking at Mini-Murphy.

"Oh! Well...I....hmm..." Murphy looks embarrassed. "...."

"...Was she cute? I mean, for a girl?" Murphy says, obviously still trying to process this information.

"And are you, like, totally in love with her?" Murphy teases, seeming to bounce back fairly easily. "'Cause you're totally all smiley and stuff. Oh my god! Did you guys kiss?"

It should come as a surprise to no one that Murphy is a total shipper.

Theresa turned a brilliant shade of red, "No, no kiss this time around. We did talk about a second date though, so that's all good."

"And I hit him a few times."

Murphy's eyes widen, "Oh god, I am so sorry! I didn't know he was, like, taken or anything. Not that I meant anything by it. I mean, I wasn't, like, trying to flirt with him or anything. I wasn't even thinking!"

"I think Brigid secure enough in her relationship at this point not to be worried." Talking about other people seemed to be just fine with Theresa.

"Ooooo...right! Where are you going to go? Somewhere romantic? Are you going to wear a dress? Is she going to wear a dress? Or like, does one of you have to wear and dress and the other has to wear a suit?" Murphy asks, "Are you going to kiss her? Have you ever kissed a girl before? I haven't, but I'll bet it's not super different then kissing a boy. Which I've totally done before."

She was such a liar.
