Mutant Royalty on Tour

by **Domanic Taylor** » Wed Jul 22, 2009 10:20 pm

The Limousine pulls up to the North Campus, and Magnus indicates that he would like to walk, rather than drive the tour. Everyone piles out of the car, Lumis's skin does a brief ripple as he does a 360 check of his surroundings.

"This is probably the most traditional part of our campus, and we've kept the faux medieval style that's so common to universities around the world, for our main buildings here."

The bookworm stepped out of the car, moved behind Magneto and followed them on their tour, she did not want anything to happen to this one.

by **Jayda Nightridge** » Wed Jul 22, 2009 10:33 pm

Jayda, having slipped out to open the door for their guest, closes it behind the last occupant to exit. Taking her habitual place by Lumis' shoulder she eyes the others once again, her gaze sweeping the length of the girl introduced earlier in the day as Sara, her gaze assessing.

Bear exited, doing her best not to smile as she joined the procession.

by **Sara McDohl** » Wed Jul 22, 2009 10:41 pm

Sara glanced over at the girl eyeing her, she smiled and went back to looking around..

by **Jayda Nightridge** » Wed Jul 22, 2009 10:55 pm

Bloody Teeps. Jayda turned her eyes back to the others, studying the form of Exodus next.

by **Sara McDohl** » Wed Jul 22, 2009 10:59 pm

Sara let the girl's thoughts go by without doing anything. She didn't want to start anything in front of an honored guest such as Erik Lehnsherr.

Exodus glanced slowly over to Jayda and for a moment she'd feel like she was trapped in a room with a dangerous predator. He smiled faintly before returning his attention to their guide.

"A grand campus, Lumis," Exodus agreed casually, looking almost bored.

by **Jayda Nightridge** » Wed Jul 22, 2009 11:23 pm

Jayda was hit with a surge of adrenalin and it was only due to her training that her hand didn't stray to her gun, seeking out the reassurance of it. She slipped it into her pocket instead, her step lighter and a smile tugging on her lips.

Maybe this one would find a way to kill me.

by **Domanic Taylor** » Wed Jul 22, 2009 11:34 pm

"Thank you Exodus." Lumis ignores the boredom, and continues the tour. "This part of the campus has all the 'normal' scholastic disciplines, as well as departments more suited to mutant studies that don't require any kind of hands-on education."

He starts the tour moving South.

by **Erik Lehnsherr** » Wed Jul 22, 2009 11:35 pm

"I heard you had some division among your faculty as to the politics of the institution."

by **Samantha McManus** » Thu Jul 23, 2009 12:22 am

Ms. McManus stepped out of one of the academic buildings, eyeing the tour group. She'd assumed the telepaths Lensherr had sent were the advance party, but the arrival of one of Exodus' stature on campus had raised her concern.

"Discussion is healthy in an academic environment. I do try to make sure that views that are normally marginalized are instead well represented here, as I did with the Jade Youth Society."

He catches sight of Samantha, since he's watching everything, but doesn't wave her over.

by **Michael Asters** » Thu Jul 23, 2009 2:12 am

"After all, even the most radical ideas deserve representation and consideration, even if they don't warrant action," Cassiel agreed. He didn't give Exodus a look as he said it... his intent was written plainly enough on his mind that he didn't have to.

by **Erik Lehnsherr** » Thu Jul 23, 2009 2:23 pm

"So are these radical ideas confined to the realm of academics only?"

by **Domanic Taylor** » Thu Jul 23, 2009 2:24 pm

"No, I wouldn't say that. We encourage student activism, to further the goals of our people."

by **Stan Bowen** » Thu Jul 23, 2009 8:52 pm

Stan was also on the periphery, watching from among a group of other faculty and students hoping to get a glimpse of Magneto.

His face was indeterminate, his arms were crossed.

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Jul 23, 2009 8:54 pm

Will stood off to one side, shaking his head slowly.

What's next? Business ethics with the Kingpin?

by **Sara McDohl** » Thu Jul 23, 2009 10:23 pm

"Keep your thoughts to yourself, Stanton..", she scolded him in his own head, looking over in his direction. "He is a man to be respected."

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Jul 23, 2009 10:32 pm

My thoughts ARE to myself. Stay out of my head.

by **Sara McDohl** » Thu Jul 23, 2009 10:41 pm

You are projecting them so that every telepath in the area knows you are displeased!", she scolds again.

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Jul 23, 2009 11:00 pm

I'm just thinking.

And I certainly hope people aren't surprised that not everyone here is excited.

by **Rick Ferguson** » Thu Jul 23, 2009 11:34 pm

Rick also stood watching from a distance, trying his best to keep a neutral expression.

by **Sara McDohl** » Fri Jul 24, 2009 12:37 am

"This is Erik Lehnsherr we are talking about, William. Not some asshole like Bolivar Trask!" , A scowl appeared on her face as she looked at Will.

by **Will Stanton** » Fri Jul 24, 2009 12:40 am

Yes, and his Brotherhood of Evil Mutants was just a nice walk in the park.

by **Sara McDohl** » Fri Jul 24, 2009 12:45 am

"Everyone makes mistakes, Will. At least he fought for us, he didn't try to have us killed." she responded.

by **Will Stanton** » Fri Jul 24, 2009 12:48 am

By the by, if you're on protection duty, you probably shouldn't be talking to me.

But since you are, I'd rather the London police have arrested him at the airport.

by **Michael Asters** » Fri Jul 24, 2009 1:04 am

Both of you. Behave yourselves. NOW.

by **Will Stanton** » Fri Jul 24, 2009 1:06 am

Yes sir. I'll just KEEP standing here QUIETLY.

by **Sara McDohl** » Fri Jul 24, 2009 1:09 am

"Sorry, Sir..", she said looking down for a moment before looking back toward the other bystanders.. "Calm down, Sar...he is just getting a rise out of you... You have a job to do..Keep your head focused....", she thought to herself..

by **Michael Asters** » Fri Jul 24, 2009 1:10 am

Do it more quietly. And be respectful. Cassiel's expression didn't change, and he didn't even look at Will, but there was something more than a little threatening to the tone of his thoughts.

by **Will Stanton** » Fri Jul 24, 2009 1:12 am

Yes sir

haven't made a single damn sound; thoughtcrime doubleplus ungood he thought, returning to thoughts he did not mean to be picked up--though, as Sara M proved, that's no defense...

by **Jayda Nightridge** » Fri Jul 24, 2009 1:17 am

Jayda noticed the looks between Sara and Will, obviously some teep funkery was going on, from the expressions on their faces.

Nice and professional, can't even keep her head on the job for five seconds.

by **Sara McDohl** » Fri Jul 24, 2009 1:23 am

Sara glanced over at Jayda for a second before turning back. "Don't give into it..it just proves her point..", she told herself, listening for any other thoughts in the crowd..

by **Jayda Nightridge** » Fri Jul 24, 2009 1:31 am

Catching the glance her way Jayda smirked and shook her head in disbelief, her own eyes shifting for a moment as she went back to her self imposed watches.

Way to prove me right, I swear to God none of these kids has a clue how to act like an adult.

by **Sara McDohl** » Fri Jul 24, 2009 1:34 am

The girl's eye twitched for a moment at the thoughts escaping Jayda's mind. "Ignore her...she is not your concern right now..", she grumbled in her mind.

by **Jayda Nightridge** » Fri Jul 24, 2009 1:44 am

Jayda's mind seemed to leak thoughts that didn't synch together cohesively. One part very obviously focused on the job and the other.. slightly off.

View from the MA - clear. Library roof - clear. Movement on the fringe of the crowd.. students with no fixed agenda apparently.. 4 cuts and you can flay the skin from an average height human male, one of each heel and the nape of the neck, an incision from the collarbone down to the...

by **Sara McDohl** » Fri Jul 24, 2009 1:48 am

"What in the heck...?", she asked herself overhearing Jayda once again... "Is she crazy....cause that just is weird..", she continued..still observing..

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 24, 2009 1:49 am

"Sara, come over here. You're relieved."

by **Sara McDohl** » Fri Jul 24, 2009 1:53 am

The girl blunk for a moment.."Who are you...?", she asked looking for where the voice came from..

Who is online
