Stumbling seemed to be more and more common to Zoe, so she managed to set aside her surprise after a moment, to switch gears. "Oh. You're in a place called Fandom, in Virginia, in the United States," she said. She could add the Earth part later, if it seemed necessary.

"I knew I was in Virginia," Max said. It was probably good that Zoe didn't add the Earth part.

"I... was looking for someone. A relative that's been missing for a number of years. Somehow I ended up here."

"Who is it you're looking for?" Zoe asked. "They might be here."

"His name is Seth," Max said. "At least, that was the name he was using last time I saw him."

Zoe frowned softly, shaking her head. "We don't have any students here by that name, and I can't think of anyone in town with that name either. He might be here though, if you think he's using an alias. Or he might be another new student that I don't know yet."

That made Max hopeful. "I guess... with this being a school and all... I wouldn't be able to stick around and check things out, huh?"

Re: General Mingling

"You would be if you were a student as well," Zoe said, smiling gently.

Re: General Mingling

"You mean... I could become a student here?" Max repeated.

"We have plenty of room for enrollment," Zoe offered. "You'd have to follow the school rules, of course, but this is a safe place where you could look for your relative. Do you have any desire to go to school?"

Re: General Mingling

Max shrugged. "I've never had any formal schooling," she admitted. "I guess it couldn't hurt."

Re: General Mingling

Zoe was very pleased with herself for potentially reeling another teenager into a world of rules and education. "You might find the classes here to be a little less...formal than at regular schools," she said. "But you certainly wouldn't be the only one for whom this is a new experience."

"Well, I suppose I can give it a shot," Max said. If nothing else, it might be a good cover for any less than legal jobs she decided to take to finance her search. "What do I need to do?"

Re: General Mingling

[bigdamnprincipal]

"You should probably go to the main office. They'll have the information you need to get registered. Tell them I sent you, and that they'd better not give you any trouble."

Re: General Mingling

Max gave her a smile. "Thanks, I appreciate that, Principal Washburne."

Re: General Mingling

[bigdamnprincipal]

"You're very welcome," she said. "I hope to see you around. Just not in my office getting into trouble."
