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]

Every shuttle ride was a new and different kind of joy, wasn't it?

Entrapta shut the hood of the shuttle, looking none the worse for wear for her little jolt, though her hair was still a bit...zappy. "I can think of several improvements I can make with that!" she announced. "Like lasers!"

"You'll have to draft those up in a proposal to the dean," Kanan said immediately, because he was not above passing this particular buck off to Skywalker. "I'm sure he can be pretty easily talked into lasers, though. For now..."

He jerked a thumb toward the bus door.

"We have a picnic to get to."

And now he had to clean out the inside of the bus and crack open the hood to make sure everything was accounted for once they got there. Sigh.

At the mention of picnics, Entrapta was willing to scuttle aboard. "Will there be tiny foods?" she asked. "And fizzy drinks?"

Look, she had only brought enough for the trip.

"There will be both of those things," Kanan confirmed, blowing out a thankful breath before stepping onto the bus - sigh, the sequins - and settling into the driver's seat. "There will be a lot of both of those things."

Beacuse this was a Fandom High welcome picnic. He'd never seen them manage otherwise.

Entrapta was looking around. "Well this is very...bright," she said. Dubiously.

Her hair was petting the back of the chair, offering comfort.

To the bus, yes.

The bus probably needed it about half as much as Kanan at this point.

"Yeah, we'll be losing the sequins as soon as we get to the island," he sighed. And then, double-checking to be sure everybody had boarded and was sitting, he shut the doors and started the engine.

He did not intend to allow anybody a single moment to jump off and start poking under the hood again, no.
