Hi? So.... social media is a requirement here, I guess. It was "strongly suggested." I've never had that. Social media, I mean. Only kid in my high school without snap chat, super lame, I know. I can hear your judgment, but...I mean, I kinda get it. It's to keep me safe. But that's why I'm here, right? Because this is a place for mutants to be safe. So I can have social media now. All good. No more social media loser.

Anyways. I'm Liam. The new cat-guy. No, I don't lick my ass. Why is that always the first question people ask??

Another cat... person. Oooooh. What is your opinion on being scratched behind the ears?

[xp_liono]

ANOTHER?!

and yes please

[xp_darcy]

I assume you haven't met Sharon yet? You will. She is also fairly new. I'm Darcy, and I'd be happy to scritch you behind the ears once we get to meet in person.

[xp_liono]

uh, no...? mostly I've been unpacking.

[xp_darcy]

Oh. OH. Was it your adults I talked to earlier? Excellent.

If you need anything, let someone know and we'll take you into town and get it.

[xp_liono]

oh, yeah. my parents. they wanted me to spend tonight in their hotel, but... nah.

thanks.

[xp_darcy]

if they want to see you before they leave, i can get you a list of good local brunch places that won't be assholes about the whole cat thing. and well. also the list of businesses we don't frequent because they are assholes.

[xp_liono]

perfect

[xp_wildchild]

Because people are gross.

Hi I'm Kyle Gibney, and if the email I got last week is right, we're about to get acquainted b/c you're gonna do the virtual high school through the Institute but here in person.

[xp_liono]

you're the teacher?

[xp_wildchild]

I'm -a- teacher and I'm mostly the guy who'll handle your history, lit, general ed classes and do some review admin stuff for the rest of your classes so your credits count for NY.

I'm not The Teacher like The Doctor or The Count of Monte Cristo or the Thane of Cawdor

[xp_liono]

okay....? sure. that'd cool.

[xp_cypher]

nah, my first question would be where the Sword of Omens at?

(Hi, I'm Doug, one of the resident tech heads. If you need anything in terms of setup, let me know and either I'll get it or I'll get you to the person who knows what's up)

[xp_liono]

sword of omens?

[xp_cypher]

Thundercats? Lion-o? 'Grant me sight beyond sight'?

[xp_liono]

like the cartoon?

[xp_hawkeye]

Hey, I'm Clint. I do archery. If you wanna learn, let me know? Also, there's unstable wormhole in the basement of the Chapel on the grounds. Don't go over there without an escort. Sharon doesn't count as an escort.

[xp_liono]

archery sounds cool

.... wormhole. okay. that makes sense. I fell into a star trek episode

[xp_hawkeye]

Nope, just a weird little pocket dimension accident. Sort of.

[xp_liono]

oh, just. sure.

[xp_banshee]

Heya, love. I'm Terry and I've got some acoustikinesis, meaning I'm good with sound. I'm roommates with Darcy, so if she hasn't offered to feed you yet, consider this an open offer. Delighted to meet you!

[xp_liono]

hi. I like food

[xp_banshee]

We like cooking. :)

[xp_darcy]

oh yeah please do let us know if you have food allergies or sensitivities

[xp_legion]

Hi, Liam. Welcome to the mansion.

[xp_liono]

hi, thanks

[xp_mayhem]

I'm April. Do you chase things? That's how I met Sharon.

[xp_liono]

I mean... if it's worth chasing?

everyone keeps mentioning Sharon

[xp_mayhem]

I'm sure you will meet her soon, having another cat person in the house will probably be difficult to resist.

Are you a good climber? We've got a nice outdoor parkour course if you ever need to get some energy out. Things to climb, things to balance on, swinging stuff... it's really great.

[xp_liono]

there's a parkour course!? YES!

I love climbing trees.

[xp_mayhem]

Yes, it's fantastic outside of winter. Get settled in and I'll show you. And probably introduce you to Boris, he's my dog. Very friendly, will probably slobber on you.

[xp_liono]

why not good in winter?

dog! he better not chase me.

[xp_mayhem]

Freezes over, too slippery. We use indoor stuff instead.

Boris is a good boy and is generally on a leash, so he won't chase you unless you're actively playing tag with him. He also enjoys fetch with tennis balls, big sticks, and a frisbee.

[xp_liono]

oh! yeah, ice isn't great unless you're going skating. maybe hockey.

he sounds like fun!

[xp_mayhem]

He is very fun! I'm sure you'll get to meet him soon.

[xp_meggan]

Oh, hello and welcome to the mansion, Liam! I'm Meggan Szardos.

[xp_liono]

hi!

[xp_rictor]

Hi, my name is Rictor. I am also new here. What are the odds two cat mutants would arrive so soon together?

[xp_liono]

uh... that doofenschmirtz gif with 2 nickels
