BWI Airport Portalocity Lounge, Saturday Morning

[notaweenie.livejournal.com]

There was a crackle of energy before reality split and portal opened up into the Portalocity Lounge. A few seconds later a figure popped through the portal wearing what appeared to be an environmental suit attached to an air supply hose going back into the portal. He then pulled out a tablet device and took some readings before stripping off the environmental suit revealing the teenager known as Barry Ween.

"Okay, Jeremy. I'm here and the atmosphere is breathable. Send the rest of my shit through," Barry said into his comm headset. "No. Just push it into the portal and pull back the suit. Jesus Christ! How fucking hard is it to push it through numb-nuts? Just fucking push it!"

Three suitcases and a large crate appeared through the portal. "About fucking time. Okay, now press the button to close the portal. Which one? The big fucking button that has a label on it that says 'PRESS THIS FUCKING BUTTON AND NOTHING ELSE.' Are you fucking kidding me? No. No. No! Just fucking forget it! Don't touch anything I'll shut it down remotely."

A couple of taps on his pad and the portal disappeared with a "plip." "All right it's done. Don't touch any of my fucking stuff while I'm gone, Jeremy. You hear me? All right. I'll check in with you later."

Barry looked up at the glittery sign bearing the name 'Fandom High' and grunted before going back to his tablet and taking further readings; muttering to himself occasionally when he found something of interest.

[Woo! Newbie Shuttle!]

"It's -- no, I've just always had it long," Rapunzel said, fudging the details a little. "It's...a choice. I'm not sick."

And hawks didn't have hair, but she was going to hold off on saying that bit for a moment, since she was sure she'd just end up looking stupid.

"Oh. Well."

Kaylin blushed a little. "Sorry. I guess when you asked if it was supposed to be someone else's... I didn't mean you looked sick or anything. It looks... really healthy. And pretty.

"No one's ever asked me if it's mine before," Rapunzel admitted with a small smile. "Sorry. And thank you. Yours is nice, too."

Seriously. Rapunzel envied all of the girls here, and their not-seventy-feet of hair.

Kaylin put her hand up to the not-so-very-clean knot of hair at the back of her head, which was currently kept there by a stick that had been lying around. She wondered briefly now if the girl was crazy, but then thought maybe she was just like Caitlyn, who always found something nice to say.

"Um... thank you."

Eh, little bit of both, really.

"You're welcome," Rapunzel replied cheerfully, looking around. "So...are you here on purpose? Or do you know why you're here, at least?"

Maybe there were more like her!

"Marcus sent me. And the Hawklord."

No, she wasn't very pleased with this turn of events.

"I have to study and do well or they won't let me be a Hawk. Why are you here?"
