Re: In The Spirit Of Today's Theme
"Forge has some salvaging tools that put most any service I can call for to shame."
Scott turns to Cid, trying not to let his obvious trepidation show in his eyes.
"Well, your entrance was a little more unorthodox than most, but at least you're not hurt. Welcome to the Xavier Institute, Mr. Highwind."
Scott looks down at his insistently buzzing PDA in annoyance.
"Great...I have to go take this. Damon, you've been great to us and I hate to put more work on you, but can you give Mr. Highwind the nickel tour? He should get put into the system, just in case we can figure out a way to send everybody home."
And you can keep an eye on him and find out what he's like...I think there've been enough bad guys coming through the Institute doors lately.
But Cid doesn't seem bad, just abrasive.
"I'll call Forge as soon as I'm done with the administrative BS. He can help with salvaging your plane, and getting you into his...dimension machine...I don't know the details."
Scott waves a hand vaguely as his PDA buzzes again.
"All right, all right, I'm coming!"
With that, he disappears up the stairs again, looking harried, hurried, and all-around overworked.
