North Wing: Graham Jaeger and Paul Valmont

[Graham Jaeger]

Graham's side of the dorm was a depressingly spartan affair; no posters, no computer, no family photos. The only personal decoration present was a large, handmade dreamcatcher featuring what look like actual wolf teeth. His bed was also far too neatly made for a teenager not in military school.

[Jennifer Newgate]

Jennifer wanders around the hallways until she finds Paul's room. She knocks on the door.

[Paul Valmont]

Paul was, surprisingly, in his room!

He opened the door, and was sort of surprised to see Jennifer there. "Oh, uh, hi, Jennifer," he said. Is she here for Graham?

[Jennifer Newgate]

"Hey, you're the guy who makes portals, right?"

[Paul Valmont]

"I... yyyyeah, I am," he said, looking at her suspiciously, not sure where this was going. His mind raced to try to think of if he'd done anything wrong lately that might have annoyed someone. The answer was probably yes, but he didn't think he'd done anything that'd piss her off.

[Jennifer Newgate]

"Can you make, like, a hole in the floor that'd go to the basement?"

[Paul Valmont]

He considered it. "I... suppose? Can't we just walk down to the basement?" Where IS the basement, anyway?

[Jennifer Newgate]

"Great. I need your help then." she says and turns around to head down the hall.

[Paul Valmont]

Aaaaand don't answer. "All right, I'll bite," he said, following her, taking a moment to lock his door. "Where are we going?"

[Jennifer Newgate]

"Hmm? Oh, the rec center to help Murphy."

[Paul Valmont]

"Oh, okay. Shortcut," Paul said. He flicked his hand in front of them and a portal opened to the rec center.

More specifically, the boys' changing room. Oops.

[Jennifer Newgate]

Jennifer walks through the portal, more marveling at the effect itself and either disregarding the fact that it's the boys' changing room or oblivious to it.

[Paul Valmont]

Paul turned red when he realized where the portal went to. "Oh, um... let's get out of here," he said, getting his bearings and hurrying toward the door.

[Jennifer Newgate]

"Yeah, it smells kind of bad in here." she agrees.

[Paul Valmont]

"I doubt the girls' change room smells like flowers," he said, defensively, as he walked out into the rec center. "So... um... what do we need to do?"

[Jennifer Newgate]

"Better than here at least." she says and leads Paul to the room Murphy disappeared in.
