[Nexus] PACK II: The Perfectly Appropriate College for Kids!

[Reinholdt]

Legion's eye twitches as she spots Admiral. Nothing was going right today. "Yeah, great. I'm really not in the mood for a chewing out from a grade-school teacher, so how about we speed this up." She looks significantly irritated. "Where's that elf kid, Vincent?"

"Don't know. Don't care. Actually never even met him. But tell you what. You leave this school and never, ever come back and I won't kick your arse from here to Waterloo and back."
The Admiral removes his cigar and blows cigar smoke at Legion.

[Trobby]

"I guess. Nothing much else to do."

Now... The One question... That decides our fate...

Is there internet in the dorms?

Yes.

"Hmm...there really isn't, is there?" Davidson smiles, though he has to admit that is pretty sad. "Well...maybe I could give you something to read to pass the time?"

[VampireRot]

"I think the Admiral wanted us to read Sun Tzu's Art of War for his class."

I think. >.> Don't remember entirely.

"I've also got some fantasy books to keep me occupied."

And Youtube and funny captioned pictures of cats!

[KerfuffleMach2]

Zel did indeed join Jamie and Davidson on the walk to the dorms. She looks around as they go, trying to remember as much as she can. Make it easier to find the place again. She's still dragging her slightly battered rolling suitcase along.

[Murkus]

"Don't know. Don't care. Actually never even met him. But tell you what. You leave this school and never, ever come back and I won't kick your arse from here to Waterloo and back."
The Admiral removes his cigar and blows cigar smoke at Legion.

"You people are funny. Making these empty threats that you don't even know if you can back up." Legion limps towards the Admiral, hand straying towards her belt. "Come on. You know I won't be leaving."

[Trobby]

((Does her suitcase follow her to the ends of the earth and back, and have a thousand feet underneath it? ))

"I think the Admiral wanted us to read Sun Tzu's Art of War for his class."

I think. >.> Don't remember entirely.

"I've also got some fantasy books to keep me occupied."

And Youtube and funny captioned pictures of cats!

"...Interesting choice." Davidson grins. "And an interesting set of rules. It sounds like you've got what you need to keep yourself occupied though...just don't spend too much time fooling around online."

Davidson, how did you know he was thinking that?

"Ah...do you need any help with your suitcase, Zel?"

[KerfuffleMach2]

((No. Just to her room. Then it latches onto the bed and never lets go again.))

Zel looks up at Davidson for a moment, then shakes her head.

No, I'm good. It's got wheels.

That, and she's using her telekinetic abilities a little to help.

[Reinholdt]

"You people are funny. Making these empty threats that you don't even know if you can back up." Legion limps towards the Admiral, hand straying towards her belt. "Come on. You know I won't be leaving."

"So you're going to stay here and kill everyone until you find out... what? That you misread the files? That he's gone home for the day? That he never came in today? That he's not even the one you're looking for? I know all the students here and I can already tell you there is no Vincent." The Admiral doesn't seem overly concerned, chewing on his cigar.

"But if you want to be a ***** about it, we can tango." Geeze. Language.

[Trobby]

"Ah...I see." Davidson nods, approving of her resourcefulness.

"Well, are there any other questions you have about the school? I admit I'm still new here myself, but I almost feel like I know the place already like the back of my hand."

[VampireRot]

SE23 blanches at the online comment. Darn teachers. Stared into your soul they did.

"Ah... Of'course sir..."

Also: Yay for Discworld references. *Points at sig*

[KerfuffleMach2]

Um... Zel thinks for a moment, then shakes her head. Not yet. Maybe when classes start, I will. But, none now.

[Trobby]

"Alright. If you have any questions though, feel free to ask me."

Davidson looks up at the sun...then he compares it to the time on his watch.

"Ah...I should be heading to my own apartment, actually...you three take care, alright?"

[KerfuffleMach2]

Zel nods a little. O-okay.

[Trobby]

"...don't worry, Zel. Everything will be okay."

He smiles at her, turns around slowly, and begins to walk off.

He gets about five steps before slipping on a patch of ice, and landing face-first on the sidewalk.

"...That...was not the part where it will be okay."

[ThirdEmperor]

K-Riv rries to stand up, then falls down from the pain, his cracked ribs screaming like demons in protest. Realizing he isn't getting anywhere on his own power, he begins screaming for help from the other kids.

[KerfuffleMach2]

Zel tries not to laugh.

And fails.

[Trobby]

"Ngh..." Davidson groans, picking up his glasses after having fallen like that, trying and failing to get his respect back.

"...Er...right. See you tomorr-!"

...

Davidson suddenly runs into the school, searching for K-Riv.

[The Bushranger]

Jamie waves to SE23! "Hey.

...the Art of War? I've read that. Dry but dad said it was worth reading, so I did."


...she manages to stifle a laugh at the slip and fall, and watches surprised as the teacher hurries off.

"Where's he going in such a hurry?"

[KerfuffleMach2]

Zel shrugs. Maybe he had to go to the bathroom? Seems plausible enough.

Zel looks at the building they arrived at. So, this is the dorm, huh? It's big.

[ThirdEmperor]

K-Rov is leaning against the wall, attempting to rip up his pants for bandages, which isn't working as they're jeans, and swearing. God-*******-******, took you long enough. I need to get to the vending ****! machine in the cafeteria. It's really important.

[The Bushranger]

"When you gotta go, you gotta go?" Jamie asks, giggling. "Yeah, it is pretty big. Wow."

She smiles, and stays close to her friend, just in case she gets nervous.

[KerfuffleMach2]

Zel stares at it for another moment, then decides to go in and find her room.

And deadtime.

[Trobby]

K-Rov is leaning against the wall, attempting to rip up his pants for bandages, which isn't working as they're jeans, and swearing. God-*******-******, took you long enough. I need to get to the vending ****! machine in the cafeteria. It's really important.

"...do you...suppose that the infirmary might not be a better choice?" He asks, looking at the state K-Riv is in.

((I'm curious though...why would the vending machine be better for him? Tobias should be able to pick up on this, with his present-sight telling him what is less-than-obvious about K-Riv))

[The Bushranger]

"Need help getting settled in?" Jamie asks Zel, moving to follow, but ready to head off if told she's not needed.

[ThirdEmperor]

(K-Riv, unlike normal Riv who repressed his powers in favor of blowing stuff up, is a techno-mage, and a powerful one. He can hack machines just by touching them.)

F***! School under attack, gotta set up defences. Then ***-****! hospital. K-Riv says, gritting his teeth at the pain.

[Trobby]

((Unless I'm mistaken, isn't the attack pretty much over now?))

"Right...but the teachers can handle it. Our first priority is to get you to safety."

((In fact, Deadtime right now. See you tomorrow.))

[ThirdEmperor]

Okay. Listen very closely cause it hurts to talk. You are either going to get me to the vending machine or I will haul myself there and shoot you in the leg on the way. Then infirmary ****! or hospital.

[Murkus]

"So you're going to stay here and kill everyone until you find out... what? That you misread the files? That he's gone home for the day? That he never came in today? That he's not even the one you're looking for? I know all the students here and I can already tell you there is no Vincent." The Admiral doesn't seem overly concerned, chewing on his cigar.

"But if you want to be a ***** about it, we can tango." Geeze. Language.

"I know he goes to school here. I'll find out what I can, and then leave. Simple as that. And I've killed nobody." She grumbles, "Not yet, anyway."

She starts to draw that strange dagger from her belt, scowling at him. The scowl turns to a slight smile as he makes that last remark. "Buddy, right now I'm pretty much the queen ***** of the multiverse. You've got no idea the things I can do. Now, you can get out of my way, or I can move you."

[Reinholdt]

"Then you're a moron who doesn't check their sources. You wouldn't happen to be naturally blonde, would you?" The Admiral hasn't actually met Vincent, so believes this all to be true!

"Lady, I worked for the Queen ***** of the multiverse. Nothing you can do can scare me. You ************* ******* ********." Someone's been taking lessons from Charity.

He crouches in a strange pose and makes a bring it motion with his hand.

[KerfuffleMach2]

"Need help getting settled in?" Jamie asks Zel, moving to follow, but ready to head off if told she's not needed.

If you want, yeah. She looks at the paper she was given at the office for a moment, then sets off, trying to find the right room.
