Synopsis: Summary needed
Cast of Characters: Blink, Alfred Pennyworth, 1108




Blink has posed:
It's Open Day at the Metropolis University! The place is busy with prospective students and their guardians, teachers and tutors wander hither and thither, cleaners move around collecting discarded pamphlets and other detritus before the wind can whip it up and away. All in all, it's that barely controlled chaos that's one part future prospects, two parts excitement.

Clarice is there as herself, sounding out the place for possible study, maybe not for herself. But she's pretty obvious as mutants go, and this will allow her to report back to Genosha later. At least, that's what the teen told herself when she snuck off the island that morning...

Wearing skinny green jeans and soft brown boots, the pinky-purple skinned mutant has her long magenta hair loose around her shoulders, brushing the top a simple black tee and the strap of a leather satchel slung over one shoulder. With an irrepressible grin, wide softly glowing green eyes drink in the hubbub with delight.

Alfred Pennyworth has posed:
     "And of course that is supposed to assure me this is the absolute best for him then?" Alfred speaks in a deadpan manner, his expression one which shows he's none too pleased with the offerings. He's dressed rather formally for the whole open invitation, looking more at home in a fancy dress party, and yet there's something about him that just blends in despite himself.

     For as garish as his appearance may be comparatively to most the down dressed potential students, parents of students and others it is a wonder that he DOESN'T stand out. There's just something about his stance, his general demeanor that helps him to blend in almost as if he weren't there in the first place.

     "Sir, I assure you that we're absolutely the right college." The official begins with a smile trying to show the elder butler around the property. His own stance one that reveals how taken off balance the poor soul is by the whole unexpected turnup.

Karolina (1108) has posed:
Karolina's one of those obvious people. It's not just that she's tall, and blonde haired, blue eyed, effortlessly tanned looking and naturally beautiful. It's that she's got the voice of a songbird and can actually pull off wearing high waisted black shorts and a flouncy pale pink blouse that is liable to land her as the head of some people's death lists. She was breezing through the commons with one of her classmates with some books clasped to her chest, but the laugh is the parting remark of a conversation left unfinished for the moment.

Her cornflower blue eyes pass over Blink at first before settling back. Whatever the feelings of the other students she's already taken a couple of steps before she quite literally runs into Alfred's escort with a *whump* and promptly looses the book off the top. How mortifying. Which perhaps is why when, with hurried apologys she endeavors to extract herself to approach the mutant she totally manages to leave behind one of the books.

Blink has posed:
A pretty laugh catches Clarice's attention, just in time to turn to see the poor girl run into the tutor showing around a rather dapper looking elderly gent. The incongrulity of which keeps the teen's attention long enough for her to completely miss the falling book - let alone do anything about it.

As it becomes obvious the cheerleader in pink is coming towards her, Clarice swallows a brief moment of panic and plasters a grin of pure bravado onto her face, thrusting out one truely purple hand. "Hi! I'm Clarice, you alright? That was quite the bump!" Her gaze travels back to the well dressed man again, her training making her take note of the unordinary; before it's returned to Karolina.

Alfred Pennyworth has posed:
     Perhaps some small part of her not taking the book with her could be chocked up to it never hitting the ground. Instead of the usual thunk and dent of a book hitting the floor it instead lightly balances upon the tip of a perfectly polished shoe.

     "If you'll excuse me for just a moment." Alfred speaks in a kind and friendly voice as one motion of the shoe is enough to send the book right into his hand, and under one arm. It's a rather interesting display, but one quickly passed off in the crowds.

     "Excuse me young Miss" Voice calm and collected as he speaks able to have his voice carry quiet effortlessly over the sounds of the crowds. The book is held up in his right hand or rather on as he doesn't grip hard onto it nor even check what book it may be.

     His motions don't exactly do much to give him away blending seamlessly with the walkings and slouchings of the crowds of college age students abound. He drifts in and out of the small groupings herding together among the savannas that are the walkways.

     "Dreadfully sorry to intrude on your conversation, However..." A quick presentation shows not a page out of place from the fall, not a scuff on it that didn't exist prior to being dropped from her hands. His kindly demeanor and general stance of confidence glows around him. "I believe that this belongs to you."

Karolina (1108) has posed:
"Hi!" Karolina enthuses sunnily with a bright smile, taking the offered hand in one of her own with another breezy laugh,"Oh, yes... I just... didn't see him there." she confesses with some modicrum of embarressment,"I'm Karolina... are you new here?" she enquires before it occurs to her that the calm voice is coming from somewhere behind her and might just be addressing her and twists about without letting go of Blink's hand, flaming bright red as she see's the book,"I... oh... thank you... I'm sorry!" she offers as she shifts her hand to take the book, worrying at her bottom lip briefly before flashing a bright smile,"That's very kind of you, sir."
