Room 406, morning

[izzyalienqueen]

Isabel still felt a bit guilty about leaving Annie behind while she was in LA so she decided to spend the morning making it up to her. Mostly that meant using her powers to send a small toy mouse zooming around the room for the cat to stalk.

The door was open so she could meet some of the new or even not so new people if any happened to wander by.

Annie is a tramp. She purred and walked over, looking for some affection. "It's easy enough to find. Stop by on a Tuesday and you'll find me there," Isabel replied. "I'm one of the library aides."

[The kitty is fully moddable doing normal kitty type things.]

Ami petted the cat, scritched behind the ears and under the chin.

"Really? Maybe you can tell me, what do i need to do to get a library card?"

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Just stop by and fill out a form," she said. "That'll get you anything from the regular library. But you'll need a teacher's note to get into Special Collections."

[slr-mercury.livejournal.com]

"Oh. What is in Special Collections?" She looked at Isabel and smiled. "So have you been here long? do you like it?"

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Special Collections is where some of the more unique and possibly dangerous books are kept. It has all kinds of information from other dimensions. It also has a genie from what I understand." Isabel leaned back and smiled, "I've been here exactly one year today. And I love it."

[slr-mercury.livejournal.com]

"Oh happy school-anniversary!" Ami continued to play with the cat. "Special collections means dangerous and restricted books. Duly noted. So, what is the best thing about here? Oh also, in case it is not obvious from the accent, i am from Tokyo Japan."

"Thanks, and I figured as much. You'll have to meet Setsuna down the hall. She's from Japan as well," she said. "For me? The best thing about being here is that I can be me. I don't have to hide the fact that I can do things like this." Holding out her hand, she sent the cat toy skittering across the floor. "Nobody thinks it's weird, and nobody's going to turn me into the FBI."

Ami, well Ami had been warned that some things are weird in Fandom. But no one told her yet that the students were weird unless being from the future was weird.

Her eyes went wide. "Oh. Oh my. That is amazing! How?"

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Well, I'm from Roswell, New Mexico. But originally, I'm from a lot further off." Isabel wasn't certain if Ami would get the reference but it was worth a shot, if she did, it would make things a little easier to explain.

Ami, being Ami made the connection. "Oh. Not a weather balloon then?"

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Nope," she said, shaking her head. "Not a weather balloon. It was our ship."

[slr-mercury.livejournal.com]

"Oh." Ami was unsure what to say to that. Her curiosity won out over unsurety though. "Can you do other things?"

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"We were in pods and got hidden in the desert. We only came out about ten years ago." Isabel grinned, "Which is why I look seventeen instead of almost seventy. Well, either that or I moisturize really well. I can move stuff, and I can also manipulate things on a molecular level. Change it's color, it's temperature, it's texture. It's a surprisingly useful skill."

"I bet you never need to dry-clean your clothes." Ami chuckled "THat is simply amazing. My assigned Big sister said she was from another planet, but she implied she was directly from there and i do not think she can well do anything like that."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Exactly," she laughed. "I'm here for all your spill and spot clean-ups should you need any. Just bring it by. Also? If you feel like having pink hair for the day? I can do that as well. Who's your big sister?" Of course thinking about the big sibling program made her think of Six. Isabel supposed she should probably check in on him at somepoint.

Instinctively, Ami's hand migrated to her hair. "Maybe someday." For some reason blue sprang to mind. "Her name is River. She seems very nice."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"River's nice, I was on cheerleading with her for a while," Isabel said. "That was last summer. This past semester was a little to busy for me. So I had to give it up."

[slr-mercury.livejournal.com]

"Aw, i am sorry. I have not yet looked into extra curricular activities, though the handbook said i needed one. What is good? At my old school, i had no time as i had cram school after regular school..."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

Isabel boggled a bit. "School after regular school? That's dedication. There'll be club fair once school starts. So you can find out all the clubs there. Personally I'm a representative on Student Council and I'm also a library aide. But I can recommend both the Gun and Fencing clubs if that's your thing. Good friends of mine are in charge of them."

AMi shook her head. "Not really my thing. Is there a swim team? Or a chess team? I will see i suppose. As for schools..." she adjusted her glasses "Well in Japan if one wants to get into a top university, one goes to cram school. The exams are very very tough, and i must get in."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"No chess or swim team, although there is a pool in the basement. But if you want to organize one you could try to run it past the administration, they're usually pretty good about things like that." Isabel wrinkled her nose, with the possibility of returning to Antar looming over her head, she's never really thought about college. "I can't imagine dealing with that kind of pressure. I think this is going to be a change for you."

[slr-mercury.livejournal.com]

AMi nodded. "You may be right. I hope i can keep up with my studies here. How about yourself, are you going to go to college here, or return to..." AMi made a vague upward motion.

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"I think you will. There's certainly enough time." Isabel shrugged, "I don't know. Our plans are sort of up in the air. I'm sure you can imagine how the crash and then the goverment getting involved messed things up for us."

[slr-mercury.livejournal.com]

"Oh i bet. There are all those stories of the horrid things the government scientists want to do to people form other planets." She looked up slightly horrified. "They do not know about this place do they?"

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"The stories are true," she replied quietly. "But they don't, at least so far. I wouldn't be here if they did."
