Fourth Floor Common Room [Saturday afternoon]

[leavingthenest.livejournal.com]

The newbies had been on the island for an entire week! Rapunzel was pretty sure that at least some of them had to be feeling overwhelmed.

Besides, she hadn't had a chance to meet most of them!

But that was okay. Rapunzel had a solution to both of those problems! Baking. Lots and lots and lots of baking! Cookies, brownies, muffins, and cupcakes were already strewn over most of the flat surfaces in the common room.

And now? It was time for pie!

Rapunzel's tongue was caught lightly between her teeth as she caaaarefully worked to separate egg whites from their yolks.

Hopefully people would show up soon to either help bake, or help consume the results of all the baking. But either way, Rapunzel intended to take the opportunity to smile broadly and talk to them!

"I don't think I need to change it, not yet," Dorothy said. "The pictures are so vivid, it's amazing."

She was sort of entranced. "How many different things can it show you?"

"Hundreds," Kenzi said, completely not sure. "Waaaaaay a lot. What year are you from?" she asked, curious.

"1903?" Dorothy said, a little confused. "Isn't that what year it is?"

She was a little behind on understanding that she'd come to the future.

"2011. Welcome to the 21st Century," Kenzi said with what was probably too much relish.

Dorothy had no idea how you responded to such a revelation.

"I traveled in time?" she asked, just wanting to be absolutely certain. She covered her mouth with a hand, trying to process the immensity of such a concept.

"Yup! The fuuuuture. It happens like that for some people here." Kenzi beamed. "You okay?"

"Oh, well, it can't be helped, really," Dorothy said. "I just don't quite understand how it happened. Though the magic portal is most likely to blame."
