I wasn't really against this place before. It was nice. If you were different or special then here people actually liked it. There was plenty to do, the people are good and... it's a pretty decent place. But when you can't do what you're good at? It's not quite as great.

[ So she's frustrated. Its the first time she's experienced anyone going home and to top it all off, she just discovered her loss. And it blows, big style ]

[ She'd been trying not to think about everything too much but eventually it had gotten a little much. She'd lost people just before coming here and then losing more... She'd had to wait till that morning before the seasons room was icy and then it had been a disaster. So much for enjoying that every week like she'd planned ]

[ X-Kids ]
[ They knew Laura better than she had, and she hadn't seen them for a couple of days either :( ]

How are you guys doing?

[ Professor Summers ]
How are you settling in?

[ Paige ]
What did you do for fun before you got here?

Has there ever been a movie night here? Or day, or somewhere big enough for a group to watch them? It could be fun, and get people together. It could be nice, and you never know... you could find someone new to talk to?

And on the topic of things to do, what hobbies do you have? And have you been able to do them here?

[ She misses her skating. Getting the shoes would be easy, but finding somewhere to do it? She hasn't found anywhere yet ]

[ When Kitty wakes up she's surprisingly, but also thankfully, in her own bed. It takes her a moment to piece everything but then... ]

Oh crap.

[ And there's a pause. A long pause. She was a cat and... oh man, thanks Castle. And there's a sort of groan before she speaks again ]

I might have been fascinated by someone with cat DNA but that was not what I meant.

[ And there's a pause, followed by a cough ]

... I think I have a hairball. Great.

[ when Kitty wakes up this morning she knows that something's wrong. For one, she's never usually this enveloped by the covers, and two... she has fur. And when she tries to talk... meow. This wasn't good.

Jumping from her bed she ran to her door, glad when she ran through it rather than into it and proceeded to walk down the corridor, occasionally walking into someone's room before back out. Help? ]

[ ooc; kitty loss starts! Feel free to find her in the corridor or your room! ]

walkinthruwalls

That was pretty creepy.

[ Kitty had heard the singing but that hadn't stopped her from venturing outside, she figured it wouldn't stop regardless of wherever she was and only had hope left that it wouldn't get her - though since the food hadn't done anything she didn't know if this would be her day or not.

And... apparently it is. Sat by the duck pond, journal open, the young girl starts humming.

And then breaks into song ]

If someone stood up in a crowd
And raised his voice up way out loud
And waved his arm and shook his leg
You'd notice him

If someone in the movie show
Yelled "Fire in the second row
This whole place is a powder keg!"
You'd notice him

And even without clucking like a hen
Everyone gets noticed, now and then,
Unless, of course, that personage should be
Invisible, inconsequential me!

Nothing's poisoned this time, right?

[ If the scream wakes you up or deafens you or anything then she's apologetic. Kitty had been walking through her room reading her journal, and not paying attention to anything - not like it would have helped - when she sat down. On her bed. Onto something prickly.

OW!

[ Backdated to the middle of the night

So if anyone's awake, or if Kitty wakes them up - she's apologetic - they'll heard the voice of the young mutant flood from their journals. She's still pretty freaked and though she knows people, she's feeling pretty alone. She hasn't felt like this since her power manifested itself before Professor Xavier came along ]

So... did anyone have trouble sleeping when they woke up?

[ Speaking into the journal is pretty weird but she's started figuring it out from people talking to her and other people that she's heard ]

Everything here's... weird. It was a little like this when I first came... went to Xavier's but... there definitely weren't any ghosts. I don't even know if anyone's awake.

[ When Kitty had stepped into the Danger Room she'd expected something that looked more like a war zone than a castle, a weird looking castle at that. She turned on the spot, looking behind her to see the reactions of Bobby and Colossus, to ask Storm what this was but was instead surprised when she saw that no one was there, that she was instead alone ]

Guys?

[ It took a moment or two before she wondered if this was a joke, but then why weren't they with her to laugh at her expense? Her next thought was mutant; something high level had to do this. Xavier had told them once about a former student, an illusionist, though he hadn't told them whether he was still alive or not. It was a good possibility, though being trapped in her own mind scared her. She took a breath and looked back to the hallway of the castle, trying to work out what she could do. Shutting her eyes Kitty mentally readied herself, opening them briefly to look at the wall in front of her before closing them and walking to it, fast enough to push herself through. Kitty hadn't known whether to expect to hit it or to be able to go through it, if she were trapped in her own mind then she didn't know what could happen. When Kitty appeared on the other side of the wall she let out the breath that she'd held, letting herself become tangible again ]

So now what?

[ She wasn't fully aware that she'd said that aloud and while the biggest contender for whatever this was was an illusion there was a part of her that still wondered if they were playing a trick on her; they could have just changed the setting ]

Think, Kitty. They're not here, you can do it.

[ This wasn't the toughest situation. Okay, so maybe it was but she'd been in scarier - Phoenix was a lot scarier, so was Magneto ]

It's just like before, just a little more alone.

[ Turning back to the wall Kitty placed her hand on it, moving her hand over the surface before phasing her hand into it and back out. It was real, at least it felt real. The Danger Room felt real and generally so did her mind. It might not have ruled anything out but it was a start, that was something. One thing that she was glad to remember was that whatever this was - trick or illusion someone would find her; someone would help her ]

Out of curiosity, how many people here have been keeping their habits from home? It seems like so many people have just given up and gotten used to living here, so I was wondering if anybody else still..

Kind of a dumb question, I guess. I just felt a little stupid not eating anything on Friday. It's a Jewish fasting thing, for anybody who's wondering. A thing from home, hence the question.

On that note, I'm sorry for anything I might've done to upset anybody since I've come here.

It's not really annoying, desu. Just weird, desu.

A week of hell followed up by mandatory politeness, desu? The castle must be bipolar, desu.

L'shana tova, Paradisa.

I figure there's got to be somebody else here who celebrates Rosh Hashanah.

☻ okay

..I feel like I missed something.

It's just different, somehow.

[OoC: Un-hiatused in the middle of SH week, figured I'd wait it out. Er, retconned absence?]

I think they're cute! Why is everybody trying to break them?

[dictated] Okay, definitely not in the X-mansion anymore. And I'm pretty sure I didn't sleepwalk into the Danger Room. Not that we have a simulation of a...

[transcribed footsteps, to and from the window] ..castle. But I've got a book that's writing down everything I say and welcoming me to Paradisa. So it can't be a simulation, we never get toys this cool in training. [a laugh] It seems like the sort of thing that the Professor would like, though--

That's right, I've got to get back to school, people are probably worried about me! It's called the Xavier Institute, it's been in the news a lot lately.. somebody here must have heard about it, right?
