by **Will Stanton** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 2:40 am

Will was in the bar, having herself a little celebratory drink.

Nina walks into the XUB, carrying quite a lot of paperwork. She seems to be concentrating on it pretty hard as she takes a seat at the bar.

It's OK, you can DO this...

"H...hey there, Nina."

by **Nina Madaraki** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 2:50 am

"Oh! Hello, William!" Nina exclaims happily, "How are you?"

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 2:50 am

"I'm...hanging in there, thank you," she said, nodding.

by **Nina Madaraki** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 2:52 am

"I'm sorry, was that too forward?" Nina says, "I know you're probably not that glad to see me...y'know...out of my cell where I can torture people and all that."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 2:53 am

"Wh...no, no, that's...that's not it, at all...

...just kinda bad memories. With the recent stuff that happened to me and everything, and....well, your kinda reputation as a mad scientist."

by **Nina Madaraki** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 2:55 am

"Then you'll be happy to know that I'm not a scientist anymore!" Nina says cheerfully, "I'm changing my major and everything!"

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 2:56 am

"Oh? What are you now?" she asked, easing into the conversation.

by **Nina Madaraki** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 2:58 am

"Criminal Justice," Nina says, "Well, I will be. When I get the forms figured out and everything. I think I'm missing one. Or I left it in a clock."

Nina frowns, looking thoughtful for a moment.

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 2:59 am

"In a cl...

...why criminal justice?"

by **Nina Madaraki** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 3:03 am

"Well, I don't want to be a doctor or anything. I've seen where that leads," Nina says, "And weirdly, there's this little voice lately that makes me feel all guilty about the experiments and stuff. It was wrong. Bad."

"And I had no idea what I was going to do! Apparently you need to know about cars to be a racecar driver and I think I just liked it for the palindromes so that was out! And then I remembered how much fun I had tracking myself down. I mean, it was horrible but I was really good at finding stuff. Especially with my probes."

"So I thought I'd become a cop and do all of that. And I get to still help people this way. It's perfect!"

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 3:04 am

"A cop, huh? Or more of a detective?"

by **Nina Madaraki** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 3:05 am

"Is there a difference?" Nina asks.

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 3:06 am

"I think so. I think policemen kind of respond to whatever's going on at the moment, while detectives go and like look for clues and talk to suspects and things.

...I think. My knowledge MAY come from Law & Order. And Sherlock Holmes."

by **Nina Madaraki** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 3:08 am

"Well, I'm sure we'll cover it in class," Nina says happily.

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 3:09 am

"I would hope so! Or you should ask for your money back."

by **Nina Madaraki** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 3:15 am

"I think I'm on a scholarship," Nina says, "...Kind of surprised they didn't revoke that yet."

"Although, I guess when you've had Magneto on staff the whole system gets a bit more flexible."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 3:19 am

"Hah! Tell me about it. For that matter, when you have Lumis and Binary on staff."

by **Nina Madaraki** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 3:39 am

"True," Nina says, "So, what have you been up to?"

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 3:41 am

"Recovery, mostly. A bit of experimentation....apparently, M...McDohl and Mel found out stuff that they, EVER SO KINDLY, decided I shouldn't remember that I could do."

by **Nina Madaraki** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 11:06 pm

"That's rather mean of them."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 11:13 pm

"I thought so, at least," Will deadpanned.

by **Nina Madaraki** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 11:13 pm

"How's Sara and Robin doing?"

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 11:16 pm

"Fantastic," Will smiled. "Absolutely fantastic. She's gonna be a live one."

by **Nina Madaraki** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 11:17 pm

"Glad to hear it," Nina says, "Although I'm not sure what the alternative would be. Well, I am. But the implications are disturbing."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 11:18 pm

"Wh...no, no, I mean, like, active and energetic and stuff."

by **Nina Madaraki** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 11:22 pm

"Oh that makes more sense."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 11:22 pm

"I thought so."

by **Nina Madaraki** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 11:41 pm

Nina sips her drink a bit awkwardly.

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 11:49 pm

"So.........you're all cleared and everything?"

by **Nina Madaraki** » Wed Apr 27, 2011 11:59 pm

"With regular telepathic counseling and restricted access to campus, yes," Nina says.

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Apr 28, 2011 12:05 am

"I'm sorry to hear that," she said, honestly. "Is there anything I can do to help?"

by **Nina Madaraki** » Thu Apr 28, 2011 12:06 am

"Help? It's really for the best," Nina says, with a soft smile, "I've got a bad future in front of me. I'd like to avoid it."

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Apr 28, 2011 12:06 am

"We've all got bad futures in front of us," Will said, remembering. "So let's ALL avoid it."

by **Nina Madaraki** » Thu Apr 28, 2011 12:08 am

"Good point."

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Apr 28, 2011 12:12 am

"I mean, look at me! I turned into a huge prick."

by **Nina Madaraki** » Thu Apr 28, 2011 12:13 am

"Hopefully not literally."

by **Will Stanton** » Thu Apr 28, 2011 12:23 am

"I suppose he might have done that, too. I don't know, I was out for a large portion of it."

by **Nina Madaraki** » Thu Apr 28, 2011 12:24 am

"I imagine you would have at least heard about it," Nina says with a giggle.
