BWI Airport | Portalocity Lounge | Saturday Morning

Petra was so relieved to find the Portalocity lounge and a banner proclaiming 'Fandom High.' She was pretty sure that meant she was in the right place, even if she did seem to be the first one here, and it meant she could sit down and stop dragging her luggage (two large, new-looking suitcases and an extremely battered green leather overnight case with an Audrey Hepburn decal on top) all over the airport.

She picked out a chair with a good view of the door so she could see new arrivals and sat down with Holly Go-Overnightly in her lap, then pulled her phone out. All her friends were still asleep, no doubt, so texting was out, but surfing the web seemed like a good way to kill some time while she waited for other people to show up. She hoped she wasn't the only new student. That would be awkward.

"And if it should," said Rosella, thoughtfully, a finger to her chin, "then perhaps the true challenge that will present itself is for us students to figure out how to make things sweet once more."

That got another grin out of Hercules. "I am Hercules," he said, finally. "It is a very good pleasure to meet you."

"Princess Rosella," smiling, she happily ducked into a little bit of a curtsy, "of Daventry. It is a pleasure to meet you as well. How good to know that the instructors should be as exciting as the island itself. It would be just terrible to discover a mere repetition of some of the stuffy fellows I'm stuck learning my lessons from back home!"

"I don't believe in stuffy learning," Hercules said. "Though I make a habit of having a few nerdy friends in case that sort of thing might prove useful. Welcome aboard, your majesty. I hope Fandom proves a good place for you."

Rosella wrinkled her nose a little at the your majesty, but then she remembered that it was always nice when tutors said it.

"Thank you, sir," she said. "I'm almost positive that it shall prove to be just that."

Hercules responded with a thumbs-up. "Find a seat and get comfortable. You've got a big day ahead of you."
