BWI Portalocity Terminal [Saturday Morning]

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.

"Didi," he repeated and gave her a slow nod. Grateful for his lack of memories and his lack of understanding, the fact that he was seemingly talking to Death itself wasn't that much of a shock to him. He had questions, endless ones but she looked his age even if she wasn't and he didn't want to overwhelm her with his requests.

"Why are you going to school?" he wondered, unable to stop that question. "Are you bored?"

Didi chewed on a thumbnail. "No. No, my job has never bored me."

Every person had a story, and she loved hearing them.

"Normally I'm human for a day and then I go home. This time I was alive for a day and I turned up here. It seems like I'm supposed to go to school."

All things considered, she sounded upbeat about it.

"So, it's an unexpected adventure?" Jonas supplied, knowing both of those words and easily stringing them together to vocalize the concept he meant.

"I think that's the idea, yep," Didi said. "What about you? How'd you end up here?"

"The Elders in my Village thought it'd be good for me to see life Elsewhere," he told her, already thinking back to that conversation. It wasn't like they'd had to force him. He wanted to learn, to grow. "I've only lived two places in sixteen years."

Didi nodded slowly. "So this is an adventure for you, too."

"I'm hopeful," Jonas answered with a nod of his own. "I'd rather it be an adventure than a tribulation. The adventures always seem to end well."
