Filtered to Students

Am I the only one who thinks there is something seriously wrong here? I mean look around. This school is practically a movie set - big stately manor on beautiful grounds with all the facilities a school full of teenagers could want. And of course everyone's so nice and friendly and they just want to help us mutants learn to use and control our powers...

I mean do you all watch movies? It's like the perfect setup for a horror flick. One of those where they discover that the seemingly perfect location is just cover for some sort of mad scientist's twisted experiments. With us as the victims, not the heroes.

I'm sure some of you are going to think I'm overreacting. But I've got one question. This is supposedly a super-swank, upscale private school. Even without the whole mutant thing, it should be costing thousands of dollars to go here. So how come this little chica from the inner city of San Fran's here? 'Cause my folks sure as shit can't pay.

And don't say it's out of the goodness of their hearts. Ain't nobody actually works like that.

Because I'm someone who knows what it's like here?

What do you expect anyone to say, if you suspect all of us for no reason? You don't know how it is to live at this school, so you can either listen to those of us who have or keep being paranoid. You're only going to offend more people that way.

You’re blaming the school, now, for there being people out there who want to hurt us?

Are you really that ignorant?

Plenty of the students here would have nowhere else to go without the Institute. The rest of wouldn't be safe off by ourselves, either. After it came out that I was a mutant, back home, my parents got death threats.

Here we can at least learn to protect each other.

You're not questioning, you're assuming the worst about people I've seen fight to protect everyone at this school.

Well, I'm sorry you can't have some respect for your classmates and teachers. That ought to make your year here go great, treating us all like we're out to brainwash you or get you killed.

[Gosh, some people. Shindou finally just has to flip his phone back off of the intranet, huffing to himself. Any further replies will only receive the moodiest of text message silences.]
