WHO: The Maxx
OPEN TO: Whoever
WHEN: morning November 14th
WHERE: Xavier's Institute
WHAT: Maxx is getting ready for work!
It had been raining for a few days off and on since he got settled into the Institute thanks to Mz. Frost. Maxx had barely left his room since arriving because the way he saw it, he was here out of a technicality. He was the gardener, but if he couldn't get out to garden, then he had no right being at the mansion. He hadn't even met anyone yet other than Emma and at night he would creep down into the kitchen for toast. Students would come down for breakfast and find that entire loaves of bread had gone missing. Eventually, a toaster vanished as well, Maxx stealing it away into his room.
But the November skies had cleared somewhat and while it was still damp outside, Maxx yearned to stretch his legs and do his job.
He opened the door to his room and looked both ways down the hall before closing the door behind him and walking to the staircase. Carefully he went down step by step. His feet were so big that his toes hung over the step like palm leaves, but his managed to balance on his heels and the stairs were a non-issue.
He passed the kitchen and paused. Juice. Juice would be a nice way to start the morning. Maybe he could get in and out before anyone came down.
Maxx decided to chance it. He needed to live a little dangerously.
