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.

Dude. You like, said we help mutant kids who can't afford tuition because we're probably like about to go all Friday the 13th on you.

Dude, I was exaggerating! For, y'know, effect. And 'cause everyone seems to just be going on and on about how ~wonderful~ this place is and how it's such a great honor to be here and all that BS, it seemed someone needed to bring at least a little reality into things.

Well... I don't know you, how was I supposed to know if you're kidding?

[Yeah, he's... not the best with strangers.]

[Or people. But especially strangers.]

And anyway, realism and being a total downer aren't actually the same thing!

So terribly sorry I ruined your happy sparkly mood.

[She so doesn't sound sorry at all]

Yeah, about as sorry as I am for raining on your raining on people's parade parade.
