BWI Airport, Portalocity Port, Saturday Morning

Timing had worked in Bruce's favor this morning. After a long overnight flight from Japan, he was really early for the shuttle to Fandom. That was according to plan. This way he'd get to see how people came into the room marked "Fandom High," whether they were nervous, or excited, or annoyed at the very thought of having to go to school.

Those first impressions didn't necessarily mean anything, but Bruce felt they often gave a good insight into how his new classmates would react in a stressful situation. You never knew when that kind of thing might come in handy.

In contrast to Dan, Bruce was being extremely social on purpose. And that's why he approached the guy standing off to the side. "Are you waiting for the bus to Fandom, too?" he asked.

Wow, two people talking to him in one day. That was like a record or something.

"Yeah, yeah I am," he said. "You too? Wait, sorry, dumb question. Of course you are."

"I am," Bruce said. "Don't worry about it. First day nerves are allowed."

"Oh, good. I hope second day nerves are allowed too. And third day nerves. I'm kind of a nervous guy in general." Even more so right now since Dan could clearly see that this guy had more money than him. He had kind of a rich kid radar now after being at St. Jude's for so long.

"I'm sure you'll get used to it in a few weeks," Bruce said. "I'm Bruce, by the way."

"I'm Dan," he said. "Nice to meet you."

"Same here," Bruce said. "Have you been to a boarding school before? Most of the people here haven't."

"Um, nope, never," he said. "I just came from a private school, though. This place apparently has no uniforms so I already like boarding school better than private."

"That seems to be a popular sentiment," Bruce said. "Apparently people really hate uniforms."
