Opening Day [OPEN]

[astonishing_xmods]

WHO: EVERYONE
WHAT: Mingle/Figure out Room Assignments/Meet old friends again
WHERE: The whole campus.
WHEN: September 1st, 2018
WARNING(S): None. If anything goes into warning territory, please create a new log for it.




For all of the newcomers, welcome to Professor Xavier’s Institute of Higher Learning! For all of our returning students and staff, welcome back! Once Professor Xavier’s welcome speech wraps up, it’s time for everyone to get themselves situated in their dorms and, more importantly, get to know your fellow mutants! Even if you’re not sharing rooms, you’ll still be sharing the same campus with each other, so don’t be afraid to get used to all of those new faces! Or even catch up on old ones! You have options; don’t be afraid to use them.

[[ ooc: This is the general mingling post for all of our characters to get settled into their rooms, get to know each other, reminisce with old friends, all that jazz. The log will be split into multiple locations. ]]

Either go inside or don't, but don't block the doorway.

[ And then he starts to move off because what is having a conversation. ]

[batteredbatter]

Right, sorry. [Breath, breath. It's your own fault for standing in the doorway like a jackass.

Try to make a better impression, right?]

I'm Koshi Tanaka! So, uh, you live here?

[DUH ALL THE BOYS LIVE HERE YOU NIGNOG]

[tactlesstactician]

[ Soren pauses, giving the boy a flat look over his shoulder. And doesn't introduce himself. ]

It's the boys' dormitory. What do you think?

[batteredbatter]

Oh, well... I guess so then, huh?

[Awkward silence.]

I live here too! I mean, from now on!

[wow. such insight. so natural.]

[tactlesstactician]

A shocking revelation.

[ much dry. very sarcasm. wow. ]

[batteredbatter]

[This... is so awkward... but he assumes it's because... he sucks at conversational English maybe??? This is a good opportunity to practice!]

Well, I hope we get along together then! We might have class together even.

[Because this guy looks like he's his age! Even if... Koshi... does not... being the tiny gremlin-like kid that he is...]

[tactlesstactician]

[ Soren is actually a little older but well - a lifetime of malnutrition does take its toll on normal growth.

In any case he just continues to give Koshi the flattest look. ]

Uh-huh.

[batteredbatter]

So, uh.... nice meeting you?

[HE TRIED SO HARD
AND GOT SO FAR]

[tactlesstactician]

[ AND IN THE END
IT DIDN'T EVEN BATTER

... wait.... ]

Mm.

[ This is going nowhere fast, so Soren looks away and starts walking off again, considering this the end of the conversation. ]

[batteredbatter]

[aksld;jfasd]

...I didn't even get his name.

[Yeah, Koshi's got nothing. At least... no one yelled at him?]
