BWI Airport Portalocity Lounge, Saturday morning

[thishouseishaunted]

"Portalocity lounge," Mae read aloud, and heaved a sigh of relief. "Finally. First time I ever travel alone and I get lost in the stupid airport." She walked into the lounge, looked around, and hopped up onto the bench, her duffel bag tucked under her feet. There was plenty of room, since her legs were too short to reach the ground. "Of course, it's bigger than, like, all of Possum Springs put together, so I guess that can't be too surprising. Good thing Mom and Dad insisted I take the early bus."

She tapped her heels on her duffel bag and eyed the door. "And now I'm talking to myself. Good job, Mae. Perfect first impression." She made her eyes comically wide and waved to an imaginary audience. "HeY, I'M mAe, i'M TOtallY NOrmAl, niCE To MEeT yoU." She frowned and tapped her feet harder. "Good job, Killer."

Another glance around the lounge. There wasn't a lot to look at yet.

"I wish I had a video game."

[NEWBIE SHUTTLE TIME! Possibly slightly early, but I want a distraction]

Kagura stowed her luggage but kept her parasol.

"You got any snacks?"

Yes, because asking for food after the insult was always a good plan.

"No, but there's a picnic on the other end of the bus ride," Kanan replied with a shrug. "Plenty of snacks there."

He had his thermos of caf, because he hadn't been about to leave the bus unattended this time around. But that wasn't for sharing.

Kagura paused for a moment.

"You don't actually look like you need a prostitute," she said. "But you should probably still shave that beard, it always makes men look like they just want to eat sandwiches instead of go on dates."

Important life advice from a fourteen year old girl.

This one... was a very confusing child.

"That won't be happening," he replied, "but I appreciate the advice anyway."

... Not really.

"But now I'll be hunting down the sandwiches at the picnic. I haven't had a chance to eat yet today."

Re: Trip to Fandom

"See, you do just want to eat sandwiches," Kagura said.

Her stomach growled.

"...okay maybe I do too."

Re: Trip to Fandom

[uncertain_dume]

"And here you don't even have a beard."

Re: Trip to Fandom

[mountaingorilla]

"I'm fourteen, I shouldn't be going on dates anyway," Kagura said. "You're the one on a biological timer."

Kanan paused a moment. And squinted a little, and raised an eyebrow.

"... Pretty sure that isn't how that works."

He was like twenty-four.

"You don't want to become a MADAO," Kagura said with a nod, and left it at that, going to take a seat.

Even though literally no one would have any idea what she'd even meant.

Yeah, that was Kanan, pausing, squinting, and looking over his shoulder after her as she went.

"What."

Yeah, students around here were never going to make sense to him.
