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.

Most ~important~ people are usually quite willing to shove their 'different' kids away where they won't be noticed.

I wouldn't know. Never been to a psych ward.

[spes_phthisica]

that's probably true, people usually don't want to deal with difficult kids unless it's their job (´･ω･`)

but aren't several of the teachers old students here? do you think they've been brainwashed or something like that? seems a little bit far-fetched, as much as i am loath to trust very much of what i've been told so far.

Isn't telepathy and mind-screwy powers one of those things mutants are known to manifest? Isn't that one of the things the suits always use to try to whip up anti-mutant hysteria?

[spes_phthisica]

so you think there's a reason to be hysterical, then?

i mean we are also the sort of people that the rest of humanity would be hysterical about, but that doesn't necessarily make us a danger to others.
and if we ARE a danger to others, it's definitely safer for us in here (-"-)

not saying you don't have a point, but... i think it's more likely that this place simply isn't as good as they make us want to think, but probably not THAT bad either ヽ（´ー｀）┌

I'm not hysterical. I'm just thinking.

Time will tell, I suppose</font

[spes_phthisica]

i'm sorry m(_ _)m i didn't mean to imply you were, of course.

and i'm sure it will, whether we have a choice in it or not.
and anyway, there's still more teachers than there are students, right? so in the worst case, at least we have that on our side (^_-)-☆

If the teachers can be trusted I suppose
