Second Floor Common Room; Sunday Morning

Leo was wide awake after radio and he wasn't comfortable enough to spend all his time stalking Fixer-Uppers yet, so he decided to check out the common room on his floor. It seemed nice, not as high-tech as cabin nine, but it had a TV and food so he really couldn't find much to complain about.

He put the TV onto ESPN and idly listened to the anchors talking about the playoff games today while making himself breakfast. Southwestern omelets. The actual, good, Southwestern kind. Not that crap rolled up into a burrito that you got at McDonalds for two bucks.

[The common room is open, yes]

"I don't know. Plenty of people around here who can kick your ass," Jake pointed out.

"Oh I have no doubt about that." Jacob alone looked like he could crush Leo with one hand. "But you guys are much nicer and seem like you shower more than the people from my old schools."

"Personal hygiene's important," Jake agreed, liking people who didn't stink. "So did the correctional schools decide that you're a hopeless case and send you this way? Or was it that camp you mentioned?"

"The camp," Leo answered. "It's for members of my family since there's a lot of us, but they encourage us to live normal lives during the school year. Which just shows you that they didn't do their research on this school because, wow, so not normal."

"No, I don't think they did," Jake agreed with a snicker. "I think this place not being normal was actually a bit of a relief for my family." If one didn't count the leeches.

"I think it's easier to get comfortable when you're around people that also understand weird," Leo said. "Part of my trouble with other schools was that nobody understood why I did the stuff I did."

He didn't actually understand all of it until recently.

"That makes sense," he nodded. "I got lucky, I had people around who knew exactly what I was going through."
