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.

I've got my whole fucking life to judge it by

Which involved how many of the people in charge here?

I'm not saying there's no reason to be wary, but there's a difference between cautious and closed-minded. One is good practice. One can get you in more trouble than it saves you.

I'd rather be unexpectedly surprised than burned.

Again.

Your call.

I'd probably be dead by now if I hadn't learned not just when not to trust people, but when to trust them. Making an informed decision is important, but I don't think the first day here is going to be enough to make an informed decision in either direction.

Trust can always be given later. But once given, it's hard to take it away.

Just don't write it off entirely, is all I'm saying. Sometimes the world surprises you.

It hasn't yet

Yeah, I kinda got that.

At least someone does
