5th Floor Common Room, Sunday Morning

Jude hadn't visited last night. And waking up with that knowledge left Flick shaken and worried that his brother wasn't going to be able to find him in this new place. It wasn't like he'd had a chance to tell his dead brother that he hallucinated that he was leaving Mandel Academy. But, his brother had found him in different places before so he was going to give it a few days and hope for the best.

Other than that, his first night hadn't been awful. He'd slept off and on and woken up tired and hungry and still in the same clothes he'd worn yesterday. He was really going to have to do something about that quick. Getting a job would be the honest way to go about it but Flick wasn't honest and he didn't want to wait. Later on, after he found food, he'd go out, find a sucker or two and lift a fancy phone, a wallet or, if he was lucky, a laptop or two. Anything like that would suit him for awhile.

He'd found some fruit in the common room and yeah, it wasn't his, but he was going to take it anyway. He could pay the person back once he got himself a little more settled. Flick took a seat on one of the couches and ate the apple silently. He left the television off. Probably should have turned it on because now he was just going to think and he didn't want to do that.

So, he reached for the remote and turned it on. Mindless distraction time.

"That's the real magic of Fandom. Every common room stocked with food," Jessica noted. "I'm Jessica, by the way."
shippedtomaine: (Nope. No idea what you mean.)

Emma could get used to that. Very quickly. "Emma. I'm new." Thus unaware Jessica may not have been speaking metaphorically.

"I figured it was either that, or I'm less social than I thought and still had some people from the start of the summer to meet," Jessica said.
shippedtomaine: (No trust for these new surroundings)

"I could've been hidden in my room. Not much for socialising either." Emma had talked to more people in the last two days than she usually did in two weeks.

"Still, there are classes, and the occasional bouts of weirdness where people end up doing stuff whether they want to or not. Things happen," Jessica said.
shippedtomaine: (Ignoring you dad)

Things happen was the story of Emma's life. "Yeah, classes." She'd finally gotten around to looking at the papers they'd shoved in her hands the night before. "Interesting selection for a summer camp."

"Think of it less as a summer camp and more as a crazy place where crazy things get all crazy," Jessica suggested. "It's much more accurate, I promise you that."
shippedtomaine: (I think my give-a-crap's busted)

Cade did suggest drinking as a way to cope. "So crazy island is crazy?"
