BWI Portalocity Terminal [Saturday Morning]

[whitequeensfire.livejournal.com]

Emma had flown with Angelica from Logan Airport in Boston to Baltimore so she wouldn't have to make the entire trip alone, and Angelica was grateful for that. But after a hug goodbye when the time came for Emma's flight back to Massachusetts, Angelica was alone in the lounge, waiting for the bus to Fandom High. She buried her face in a book and tried not to be too nervous about changing schools, counting out the positives. She might make new friends. Empath and Roulette wouldn't be there. She might accidentally fry someone with her microwave powers.

Oooookay, that last one wasn't too positive.

She nodded, feeling unexpectedly warmed by the nickname, then managed a half-smile. "I wouldn't mind finding a home."

Yeah, she left out the 'away from home' part, but it's not like she really had one anymore.

Reno's smile went a little softer. Only for a moment, and only if you knew to look for it. But it did.

"One of those, huh? Been there, too. I hope the island don't disappoint, yo." He offered her his hand. "Name's Reno."

"I guess, yeah," she said softly and took his hand. "I hope it doesn't either. Nice to meet you, Reno. I'm Mercedes. Or Mercy. Whichever you prefer."

"Hey, Mercy works," Reno replied, giving her a quick handshake before returning his hand to where it had been clasped with the other one, behind his head. "The accommodations on the island ain't bad, anyhow. A dorm room to chuck all your stuff in before you all get pointed toward the cabins, yo. Both pretty cozy, if you don't mind sharin'."

She nodded, inwardly pleased that he'd chosen to call her Mercy. "I was prepared for that." Not that she'd had to share a room before she'd gone to her mother's house, but she could adapt. Coyotes were very adaptable. It's why they could survive in the cities and wolves couldn't.

He'd chosen Mercy because it was one syllable less effort, really. Reno was special like that.

"An' it never hurts to be prepared," Reno agreed easily.

Really. It really, really didn't around here.

"I do my best," Mercy said. She'd even made sure to bring Bryan's .444 Marlin and the silver bullets. Just in case, you know?

"Keep on doin' that," Reno noted, "an' you'll do just fine around here. Welcome aboard, Mercy."

"Thanks, Reno," she said, feeling marginally better about this whole thing. At least maybe she had someone she could go ask questions of if she needed to.
