by **Marie Darkholme** » Thu Dec 01, 2011 7:37 pm

Marie and Anna walk up to the office and knock, waiting patiently for an answer.

by **Samantha McManus** » Thu Dec 01, 2011 7:39 pm

"You can come in, Anna and Marie," came the voice from inside.

by **Anna Raven** » Thu Dec 01, 2011 7:40 pm

Anna pushed the door open so they could walk in together. "Good evening, Headmistress," she said, smiling sweetly as they advanced. "We hope you're..."

by **Marie Darkholme** » Thu Dec 01, 2011 7:43 pm

"...not busy," Marie says, "We'd hate..."

by **Anna Raven** » Thu Dec 01, 2011 7:44 pm

"...To be an inconvenience," Anna finished, with a little smirk. Not that anyone here is likely...

by **Marie Darkholme** » Thu Dec 01, 2011 7:45 pm

...to be doing anything important.

by **Samantha McManus** » Thu Dec 01, 2011 7:49 pm

"Well I rather ought to be getting back to my normal business hours, now that I've returned."

"If I may ask, you two haven't been around other mutants much before, have you?"

by **Anna Raven** » Thu Dec 01, 2011 7:50 pm

"I don't suppose we have. Of course, if someone didn't want us to know..."

by **Marie Darkholme** » Thu Dec 01, 2011 8:07 pm

"...it might be difficult to be certain," Marie finishes.

by **Samantha McManus** » Thu Dec 01, 2011 8:10 pm

"No, just used to having each other, I imagine. Are you adjusting well to campus life?"

by **Anna Raven** » Thu Dec 01, 2011 8:13 pm

"Mmm, oh, it's interesting enough. I'm sure that most poeople would like..."

by **Marie Darkholme** » Thu Dec 01, 2011 8:29 pm

"...to be well rid of us," Marie says, "Or at least..."

by **Anna Raven** » Thu Dec 01, 2011 9:13 pm

"...not have to deal with us directly. Which is likely why we're..."

by **Marie Darkholme** » Thu Dec 01, 2011 9:17 pm

"...here," Marie finishes with a smile.

by **Samantha McManus** » Thu Dec 01, 2011 9:19 pm

"I suppose the buck very well does stop here, as the Yanks say."

"Regardless, we've more than a few who come here from... sheltered perspectives."

by **Anna Raven** » Thu Dec 01, 2011 9:25 pm

"We're wondering if any of the staff who passed us along told you what..."

by **Marie Darkholme** » Thu Dec 01, 2011 9:27 pm

"...what exactly our circumstances are," Marie says.

by **Samantha McManus** » Thu Dec 01, 2011 9:30 pm

"I've read your file, aye. I do hope there's no resentment over having to be here."

by **Marie Darkholme** » Thu Dec 01, 2011 11:21 pm

"Of course not," Marie says with their sweetest smile, "It's..."

by **Anna Raven** » Thu Dec 01, 2011 11:23 pm

"...really quite interesting. Our old school didn't really..."

by **Marie Darkholme** » Thu Dec 01, 2011 11:25 pm

"...have nearly this number of fascinating people," Marie says.

by **Samantha McManus** » Thu Dec 01, 2011 11:28 pm

"Well I do hope that not needing to hide yourselves has also done some good."

by **Marie Darkholme** » Fri Dec 02, 2011 12:03 am

"It is nice..."

by **Anna Raven** » Fri Dec 02, 2011 6:12 am

"...to be able to stretch our wings a bit."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Dec 02, 2011 4:50 pm

"Aye, that's always nice," she said with a faint smile.

by **Marie Darkholme** » Fri Dec 02, 2011 9:35 pm

"It is," Marie agrees, "Although we did have a question, have you found anything..."

by **Anna Raven** » Fri Dec 02, 2011 9:39 pm

"...regarding what happened to our mother?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Dec 02, 2011 9:40 pm

"I'm afraid not. Our resources have been stretched a bit thin by recent events."

by **Anna Raven** » Fri Dec 02, 2011 9:46 pm

The twins nodded in unison. I suppose it's just...

by **Marie Darkholme** » Fri Dec 02, 2011 9:49 pm

...up to us then.

"We understand," Marie says, "After all..."

by **Anna Raven** » Fri Dec 02, 2011 9:50 pm

"...we're hardly a priority."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Dec 02, 2011 9:52 pm

"I wish I had a better answer for you, but the way things have been going, needs must."

"We've no intention of leaving you in the lurch, though."

by **Marie Darkholme** » Fri Dec 02, 2011 9:54 pm

"I'm glad to hear it," Marie says, "Do you think..."

by **Anna Raven** » Fri Dec 02, 2011 10:18 pm

"...That we'll be able to go back home for a few days? There are some things we could not pack, and there are..."

by **Marie Darkholme** » Sat Dec 03, 2011 12:18 am

"...a few things we would like to take care of."

by **Samantha McManus** » Sat Dec 03, 2011 12:33 am

"I'm afraid that our agreement with Child Protection would require an escort during that, but otherwise it's quite possible to do."

by **Anna Raven** » Sat Dec 03, 2011 12:42 am

"We see. So they don't want us there, either," Anna said. "I suppose that's not surprising, since no one..."

by **Marie Darkholme** » Sat Dec 03, 2011 12:44 am

"...seems to be willing to take the chance we won't run off into the night as soon as your backs are turned," Marie says.

by **Samantha McManus** » Sat Dec 03, 2011 12:48 am

"We have to work within the framework we've been given, regarding your care."

by **Anna Raven** » Sat Dec 03, 2011 12:52 am

"Which is why everyone looks at us like..."
