BWI Portalocity Lounge | Saturday Morning
One of the very few perks of having a meteorologist for a mother was that Amy could almost always avoid weather-related flight delays by relying on her mom for information. That was usually very convenient, but today it meant that due to anticipated late morning storms in northern Texas, Amy had been forced to fly in at ass o'clock in the morning so that she wouldn't run the risk of missing the bus to school. So it looked like she was the first person to reach the Fandom High banner in the airport lounge, and while Amy had always had hopes of one day winning a race, this wasn't quite what she had had in mind.
Armed with an overstuffed duffel bag and her favorite pair of sweatpants (they were decorated with little cartoon strips of bacon!), Amy stifled a heavy yawn and parked herself in a distant corner of the lounge where she could wait for more people to show up.

//It doesn't really,// he offered, satisfied enough that he'd made his point and smoothing the wrappings back down over his face again. //Doesn't feel like much of anything, actually. No need to worry about me, luv. I'm surprisingly difficult to hurt.//
Re: The Trip to Fandom!
"Oh. That's... good to know."
Something like that.
"I guess I get why the telepathy comes in handy, then," she mused. "It's kind of like those moms who can pick up cars to keep their kids from getting squished? Only for you it's like an emergency way to communicate instead of an emergency burst of super-strength."
She paused. "I have a feeling that sounded really dumb."
Re: The Trip to Fandom!
//Not all that dumb, actually,// he replied with a shrug. //Realized I had the telepathy around the same time I wound up without a mouth, so it was an oddly fortuitous perk to the otherwise horrific mutation, at the time.//
Yes, that was reassuring, Jono.
Re: The Trip to Fandom!
Now that she knew it was a sudden mutation and not some kind of weird birth defect.
Re: The Trip to Fandom!
It seemed like a slightly more appropriate reply than lamenting the loss of his chances at a musical career, anyway.
//For what it's worth, I think you'll do fine on the island,// he added, stuffing his hands into his jacket pockets. //We've got a bit of a variety with our students, but I don't think anybody is quite as... shocking... as this, besides. Welcome to Fandom High, Amy.//
Re: The Trip to Fandom!
The whole Homecoming Queen scene had been a lot to live up to, back in Austin. She supposed the popular crowd at Fandom was probably a bunch of werewolves and costumed heroes, if Jono was to be believed.
"But, yeah, thanks." For the quick-and-dirty education. Not to mention the future nightmares about her face catching fire.
Re: The Trip to Fandom!
//Oh, it'll be classic, alright.// Forgive him for sounding a little amused, there. //If you've got any questions at all once you get there, I'll probably be standing around the teachers for a while before the welcome picnic ends. You will be getting assigned a big sibling from the students that have been around for a while, so you won't be wandering completely lost, at least, background or no.//
And if the worst of her nightmares after going to Fandom High for a while were about her face catching fire, she'd be doing pretty good.
