Newbie Shuttle, Portalocity Terminal, BWI (Saturday Morning Fandom Time)

After everyone was done shouting at and/or hugging him to say goodbye – and there had been a lot of both –Victor Mancha had two choices in getting from Los Angeles to BWI. The first was taking a commercial flight, which would have been reassuringly normal.

The problem was that, even if he somehow got past the metal detectors, he suspected his circuitry might count as the kind of portable electronic device that wasn’t very takeoff-and-landing-friendly. He didn’t exactly have an easy off switch, and crashing a plane by mistake seemed like a big step towards super-villainhood.

Which meant he got to the Baltimore airport via portal. He’d never been through one before so he didn’t have much to go by, but it seemed like a nice portal: If nothing else, it smelled far better than Cloak’s ... cloak had. Victor was grateful to know that hadn’t been the state-of-the-art in teleporting.

And now he was on the East Coast other than New York for the first time. Once he’d exhausted the little potential for exploration the terminal had, he sat in a semi-comfortable airport chair, suitcase at his feet, and tried to break the Tetris high score on his phone while keeping watch for any other kids.

[OOC: Operation newbies: Go! I will be slow for a few hours after 5:30 EST, but otherwise around all night.]

"The school is located on an interdimensional nexus," Anakin explained. "It's entirely possible to be at school and have your mother show up and be three years younger than you."

Like Jaina had.

"Let's hope not." Because her mother had zero backstory was already dead and that might cause some Issues. "This is strange enough. You are basically telling me that you're my great-great-great grandfather."

"Yes," Anakin said, wincing at the great-greats.
notconflicted: (so very serious)

Sia wondered if maybe she should have risked it back home...

"I see. Anything else I should know?"

Anakin shook his head. "You'll figure the rest of it out."
