BWI Portalocity Terminal [Saturday Morning]

[icallmyselfkyle.livejournal.com]

Rather than fly from Philadelphia to Baltimore, Eric's parents had given him a lift. They had offered to drive him directly to the school, but he told them he would rather meet the group at the airport and take the shuttle. That way he'd get an early glimpse at all the hot girls he was sure would be going to his new school.

So now he was relaxing in the lounge, drinking a soda and waiting. It wasn't going to college, but it would do.

Wait for the Shuttle!

Ladies, Eric will very likely hit on you. My apologies.

Hayley sat down, suitcases by her side. She wore a plain white blouse with a black skirt, stockings, and shoes. Effectively, her old St. Agnes' uniform. She sighed with relief, glad to know she wasn't under the watchful eye of any more GCPD officers.

She smiled broadly, crossed her legs and started to swing them, idly.

There was a boy, looking somewhat perturbed and making a point to lurk around the edges of the lobby. He didn't have any bags with him, but he did seem decidedly interested in the pamphlet in his hand.

Possibly because if Jono was looking at that, it would be more difficult for people to make eye contact with the scarred goth boy with half his face covered.

Despite all Ellie's assurances about this school, Chuck was still... a little nervous. It wasn't like he was in his element when it came to social situations, and this was looking like it would be one of those.

So, he was loitering with his baggage in the airport lounge and hoping like hell he was in the right place.

There was a well worn piece of paper in his hands. Jonas had folded it and refolded it on the way, making sure that the ink stayed visible despite that. The instructions were numbered, written in small, careful script that he'd written himself. Where to go, what to bring, what to say.

He vaguely remembered memories of things that flew (that weren't birds) but they were mostly blurred in his mind, running together and being just out of reach.

Jonas squinted and looked around, taking in the faces of those around him, memorizing them, adding memories. His bag was at his feet, nondescript and light. Jonas waited, unsure of what to expect and constantly on his guard.

The girl in the Doc Martens, cargo pants, and tank top who came strolling into the terminal looking bored had the handle of a large, expensive rolling suitcase in one hand and a lumpy-looking canvas duffel bag, the sort you'd get from an army surplus store, slung over her shoulder.

"This is it?" Her lips thinned. Her expression turned skeptical. More skeptical, rather, since it'd already been. "So far? Really not all that impressed."


It was partly an act. The part where she'd gotten to travel by portal had been kind of cool, even if Kennedy wasn't sure how easily she could accept that it was real and not some elaborate trick.

On one hand? Gothy-looking girl in a red leather cat-suit, looking just the tiniest bit lonely and confused.

On the other, she wasn't doing much to cloak her aura of ~You go away. You go away and you die now.~ whenever anyone walked past her and her pile of oddly-shaped luggage.

Ah, contradictions. Elder god stuffed into the de-aged body of a human, or just every teenager ever? You decide.

Jaime looked like your average friendly teenager. He also looked slightly distracted. But that was normal, too, right? As long as no one heard his occasional mutterings of "No, that's ridiculous. You're being paranoid!" he probably seemed perfectly harmless.

An oh-so-fashionable girl in bright pink platform flip-flops, a pink spaghetti-strap shirt and white cargo pants was popping her gum as she chatted away on her somewhat large cell phone.

You know, fashionable for 1995.

"Omigod, Mom, I told you I was sorry!" she said pitifully. "I don't know why I have to be sent to Maryland. Like, Maryland sounds like such a punishment. Like people are like, named Mary there. Mary is so, so boring, Mom. I can't be boring! I'm still young! I, like, have to be exciting and adorable and vampy and sensual and a woman before I'm boring!"

There was the echo of Kelly's mother's stern, accented voice through the phone, and a click.

"...oh my god, hi, is this, like, where we wait for the bus or whatever?" Kelly asked as she closed her phone and looked around curiously. This was so not awesome.

Tony dropped his duffel bag by one of the benches and dropped into a seat. He wore a Vancouver Academy of Dramatic Arts t-shirt that was a little big on him (it was Lee's) with his cargo pants and Doc Martens. His left eyebrow had a gold ring through it.

He looked around at the new kids. Weird to think he was one of the old folks, now.

The restraints on her wrist and hands were taken off before they landed on the port. Azula hadn't been lying when she said the chains chafed.

Azula stood near her luggage and crossed her arms, waiting.

Cal dropped his bags at his feet (the typewriter case more gently than the others), and tucked his hair behind his ears, grinning a bit. For, in this crowd, he had something very few others did, and that was knowledge. He knew what he was getting into and they didn't, not necessarily, and he felt almost superior and wanted to call out that he had the knowledge and grandstand as something big returning to Fandom Island.

Of course, he didn't. He was just going to stand there, light up a cigarette, and people watch quietly, while entertaining thoughts of doing that. And being more excited than he'll admit to see some of his friends again.

There were many things that Cordelia Chase just did not do, and one of them was traveling lightly. She made her way through the doorway into the shuttle waiting area, some poor, beleaguered porter following behind her, pushing a cart stacked high with luggage.

"Just leave it there," Cordelia told him as she waved toward a clear space by a seat. She tipped him a measly two singles and ignored the glare she received in return as he headed out the door. It was only after he had left that she turned to look at the others around her.

"Oh, Daddy really should have sprung for a limo," she said out loud, not caring who overheard her.

It had been difficult leaving his parents behind in Smallville, but everyone agreed it was what Clark needed after the last three months in Metropolis.

At least he wasn't the only kid hanging out in the lounge post-portal trip. He shifted the bag on his shoulder and took in his surroundings. "Guess I'm not in Kansas anymore."

There's a boy there, a bit in the background, a little non-descript; he's sitting on a suitcase, a skateboard in his hands as he works on tightening one of the wheels. He's worried, you see, that it came a little loose during the plane ride.

Every now and then, he looks up at the others, a little nervous. He's barely been out of California, just the one trip to Mexico with Gabe's family, and now here he is across the country for school.

A dripping wet girl dressed all in black, with a top hat balanced jauntily atop her black locks and two goldfish in a plastic fish carrier, wandered into the terminal.

From what her brother said, she was shut out of her realm, her role taken by other aspects of herself. That was all right. Nothing was forever, nothing was certain ... except herself.

And for now, she had lots of people to meet and the delightful scent of cinnamon rolls the size of her head to contemplate. She got one and started picking it apart, eagerly licking the icing off each fingertip. "I love eating, don't you?" she asked no one in particular.

Summer had found the terminal with ease and as she looked around, she wondered if other teachers would be on the shuttle with her. From what she could tell, it looked like she might be the only one.

Summer placed her bag containing her laptop on the ground and made sure her suitcase wasn't about to roll off anywhere, a small smile appearing on her face. She was looking forward to seeing what Fandom and its students had to offer.

Angela could do without starting her new school via public transportation, but she supposed if that was the way it had to be, she could deal with it. As long as she didn't have to sit next to anyone. And as long as it wasn't too loud. And as long as the driver didn't make too many sharp turns which would cause her to have to yell at him, or at least give a stern admonition.

For now, she was waiting patiently, keeping her things close to her at all times. You never knew with people.

Calvin slouched in a seat, arms crossed and a sour expression on his face. "This is a bad idea."

Hobbes sat in the seat next to him, tail twitching idly as he people watched. "Why's that?"

"Any school you need to get to on a bus is a bad idea."

Jak had been walking for quite some time now. He arrived late, with no luggage, and looked terribly, terribly nonplssed about everything in general and nothing in particular at all.

Codex was never trusting priceline.com again. Yes, the flight had been the cheapest of all, but it had gone through Phoenix, Salt Lake City, Denver, Dallas and Chicago to get here. She didn't know why. All she knew was that it had taken nearly 24 hours with stopovers and she was tired.

Then there was the added hassle of finding a luggage cart, which meant she was at the tail end of the people arriving for the shuttle. The adrenaline of travel soon ran out and she found herself around people she didn't know, on the wrong side of the country about to go to a boarding school.

A very simple thought went through her mind. What have I done?

A second one followed soon after. I wonder if I can get wifi out here?

Shuttle Time!

Wait for the teachers to ping in, plz.

Anakin stalked toward the group, moving fast enough to make the hem of his robe skim off the ground.

He wore his traditional scowl on his face.

"Fandom?" he asked.

Meanwhile, the other chaperons, one very large and muscly and bald, and the other very small and hairy and hamster-like, were looking over a road map.

"Boo," Minsc was telling his hamster, "I think that is a river, not a road. But okay, okay! You're the navigator here, and I must trust your instincts."

He patted the hamster proudly before turning his attention to the new shiny students.

"WELCOME," he boomed, "WELCOME, WELCOME! Fandom Shuttle! One and all! Plenty of room, no need to shove!"

FEEEEEEEEEEEEEENYYYYYYYYYYYY!

... I now have the urge to re-watch the entire series. Look what you did! ;) And, I think listening to 1776 with him as John Adams may have contributed to my sudden urge. :D
