Fooooodddd!!!!

Up until recently maintained as a museum, the childhood home of the Braddock family has been pressed into service as additional housing and classroom space for the Institute. Additionally, the increased demands have led to the main ballroom being converted into a cafeteria for both the Institute and those University students on a meal plan. Student reactions have been mixed, and reports of paranormal activity are as of yet unsubstantiated.

"Me what?" Lily says, sounding a little grumpy now. She hated being woken up suddenly.

Not really sure what to say, Cal turned abruptly toward the food line. Awkwaaard...

He started doing his 'try to act casual', trying to think of anything other than the situation at hand. Which, honestly, wasn't all that hard when you have the internet in your brain.

...-p bid on that auction, and that one, and I should have enough left to... Cal was in the middle of processing his e-mails when he noticed that Aisha was standing next to him in line and resisted the urge to freeze up. "Um... I don't know what I want yet, why don't you go ahead," he said, swallowing and stepping out of her way.

"So where are you from?" Haley asked, now also standing flirtatiously close to Cal as they wandered through the line.

Swallowing, Cal followed through the line. Well, it's better than back at home. No jokes and reporters and gawking and Mom crying whenever she looked at me...

Lily got some tea and toast, then went to sit down at a table.

By the time everyone else got there, she was head-down fast asleep.

”I think it's awesome! You have a computer in your head. You could be like "hey I'm just gonna watch Netflix in class,' or 'man these girls are really annoying I'm just gonna play a video game while they keep bugging me.' she grinned.

"Hell you could like watch porn and no one would even know!" she laughed.

Both Cal and Haley's thoughts were answered by a projected telepathic giggle.

The hand of Lily's psychic avatar pulled its way out of her head, groping around uselessly in the air for a moment before it's followed by another hand. Grabbing hold of the table, it pulls itself out of Lily's body.

Lily's avatar looks like it could be her twin, just a bit healthier and with longer hair. She floats above Lily, dressed in white pajamas.

She stretches out a bit, smiling at the group, "Good morning!"
