[scathach is sitting on the edge of a building. she's only outside because there are just a few clouds in the sky, so she isn't too worried about getting a sunburn. she's holding the nv in one hand, arm resting on her knee, so the frame is a little crooked.]

Now that a cure has been found, I hope that all of the sick will be on their feet soon.

[just pleasantries. she's clearly getting to business now, because she actually looks to the camera, straightening the picture.]

I was hoping there would be some kind of school here akin to Xavier's Institute, but I have yet to stumble upon one. In light of this, if someone could direct me to a local dojo, I would greatly appreciate it. And if there is no dojo, I will need space to build one.

[oh right.]

I'm a teacher of the martial arts and weapons combat. I suppose I should mention that I'm open for lessons right now, though they will have to be in a public space, preferably a park or field. If anyone is interested in learning, tell me now. Lessons start tomorrow.

[and with a curt nod, she cuts the feed.]

I'm Jubilee. I used to run around with Wolverine. Were you one of the new students?

[What are two separate Xavier's?]

[symmachy]

[her nose wrinkles a bit]

I don't know who that is. And I'm not a student--I'm a teacher.

[so what if she looks like a teenager she is a grown woman!!]

[thelittlestbub]

No. I knew all the teachers. There's no way you were one and I didn't know you.

[That's okay, no one believes Jubilee is legal either.]

[symmachy]

I taught at a--different Institute. One in another dimension. It's all very complicated.

[thelittlestbub]

You're not an X-Man?

[symmachy]

No.

[thelittlestbub]

[Jubilee sighs. Figures.]

Never mind, then. I wish I could help.

[symmachy]

[raises eyebrows]

Help with what? If the school is not here, there is no direction in which to point me, anyway.

[thelittlestbub]

[Head shake. she's still not 100%, but at least she's better. However, her communication skills still suck.]

I meant with finding a dojo or some place to practice.

[symmachy]

[it's okay, scatty isn't even sick and her social skills are basically zero]

Ah. Well, thank you for... [uh] Thank you.
