Academy X

Who: Laurie and OTA
Where: The library
When: Monday afternoon, June 21
What: Arts and crafts time after training... since Laurie assumes no one ever goes to the library and even if they do, no one really talks much...

( It had to be a safe place to hide away... right? )

Who: Nori Ashida and OTA!
When: Friday, 14 May, just before lunch.
Where: Coming out of Xavier's office and immediately getting turned around.
What: Nori's finally come back to Xaviers, this time managing to actually get inside! But buildings are confusing and she's lost. :(

( It was only moments before she was lost down one of the seemingly endless halls here, turning this way and that to try and get her bearings. )

who: Sofia and Alison; Alex and Bobby
when: Monday; lunch time
where: Cafeteria
what: The girls are gossiping about the men in the school and sizing them up, blissfully unaware that at the table across from them ... the exact same thing is happening.

( We need to find you a boyfriend. )

Who: OT Everyone!
When: Saturday night
Where: The (decked-out) gym
What: PROM

( A night to remember. )

who: Sofia, OT Paige, Alison, Megan, any girl!
when: Saturday afternoon
where: Girl's locker room; adjacent to Danger Room
what: Prom may be hours away, but the clock is ticking for the girls to get their hair and make-up just right.

( Fashionistas, assemble! )

who: Sofia and Kevin
when: Sunday evening

Who: Everyone!
When: Late Monday night, after curfew
Where: All over the mansion
What: Weapon X attack!
Notes: This is a bit long but please read all of it so everyone is on the same page. This thread will run like the field trip thread and you can also make separate threads if you want to. The attack will end with Weapon X eventually retreating, there will be another post for that later. Have fun :D

( They had their orders. )

who: Sofia and Julian
when: Thursday evening
where: Julian's dorm room
what: After overreacting to Julian's comments on Kitty's journal, and pretty much every other comment he had made this week, Sofia decides to confront Keller with her feelings.

( FRUSTRATION. )

Who: EVERYBODY!
When: Foredated to Tuesday morning
Where: The American Museum of Natural History, New York City
What: Field Trip! Feel free to branch off into separate threads if you want to. *There is a nifty floor plan of the museum here: http://www.amnh.org/exhibitions/floorplan/pdfs/AMNH_Floorplan_English.pdf

All of the students and staff members had been herded out to the drive way promptly at 7 am on Tuesday morning where a large charter bus was waiting. Before they left, the Professor gave everyone a run down of the usual rules: stay in your groups, be on your best behavior, no powers, listen to the staff, and so on and so forth. Those who needed image inducers had been fitted with them the day before and given a tutorial by Dr. McCoy on how to use them. Dr. McCoy made sure of course to remind everyone to be mindful of the devices and to keep an eye on the batteries. Finally Scott read the list of the groups aloud so that everyone knew who they were supposed to be with before they all piled into the vans for the four hour drive to New York City.

After a carefully timed (by Scott of course) pit stop or two, the bus finally pulled up in front of the American Museum of Natural History around noon. The professors ushered the students out and corralled their own groups together. There were quite a few ways to make one's way through the museum, and each professor had a different track to take. Everyone was supposed to meet back in the main lobby at 5 o'clock. Xavier tried very hard to plan everything, trusting Scott to keep the order. But the best laid plans - they never go right.

The professors took their groups through the large doors of the entrance. The group remained large as tickets were passed out, guides picked up, paths selected. The group branched into two still-large groups first, as there were only so many entrances to the exhibits, and then each group splintered off until the six groups had separated and started on their tours.

( Field Trip Groups )

Who: Sofia and Jono
When: Monday evening
Where: Jono and Remy's room
What: Sofia has come looking for her sugar daddy friend to hang out, but finds someone nowhere near as perky as Remy.

( Yoooo hoooo! )

Who: Kitty Pryde & Open
When: Wednesday, March 24 - 7:30 AM
Where: The Girls' Dormitory
What: What happens when you wake up in a strange room, with a strange girl, in a strange building? Obviously your first instinct is to find out where you are. Unfortunately, for Kitty, finding out such information is going to prove to be a bit difficult at first.

( Shaking her head, she yawned into her hand as she turned a corner and found herself coming to an abrupt stop. That certainly wasn't normal. That wasn't normal at all. Rubbing at her eyes, she squinted down the hallway and made a face. Were the walls getting taller? Was the ceiling rising? That was impossible. Things like that didn't happen. )
