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.

More blank staring. "Are those Transnational satellites?" Makita asked sheepishly. "International geography was never really my strong suit with my tutors."

"They're states." Claudia shrugged. "Where are you from, then?"

"Bahamut, Nokgorka," she answered, reaching up to adjust her hat slightly.

"Is that one of the countries that broke off the USSR?"

"The U.R.R.S.," Makita corrected, nodding. "Or the 'Commonwealth', as they're styling themselves now."

"And we declared sovereignty, yeah." The Reds just weren't listening very well. Or at all.

Claudia could've sworn it was the USSR. There was, like, a song about it and everything, wasn't there?

Ah well, international geography wasn't one of her strong points, either.

"That totally rocks. I've heard those dudes weren't much for civil liberties."

"Not so much for 'civil' in general," Makita replied dryly. "More like, 'me smash!'"

"Yeah, the US does that sometimes, too. Maybe it's a government thing."
