[open log] Packing, planning, general running around!

Characters: Everyone! Even if you plan for your characters not to go on this trip, they can be doing other things here or talking about what they plan to do while the others are away.
Setting: The mansion.
Content: An open, free-for-all thread for all characters to talk about planning for their upcoming getaway to London (Jono's trip, which everyone else has appropriated for the whole school)
Status: Open and incomplete. Really, just talk about anything!

Jono was in the kitchen of the X-mansion, stocking up on snack foods for the plane ride, but it seemed to surprise Josh how little he was packing. "I'm going to pack for the plane," Jono explained, "and then buy food there. You didn't expect me to bring food to my hometown, did you? I have to eat what I can get over there!"

Meanwhile, some members of the staff were surveying the damage done to the west wing of the mansion during their recent attack by Kimura. "Oh well," Logan shrugged it off. "We'll bill it to the school, and anyway, most of the kids will be gone for the trip. Saves a lot of hassle not having people around for the construction."

Fortunately for the students, most of their living quarters hadn't been damaged, so they were able to pack their still-intact clothes and other necessities. As the days grew nearer to the trip, anticipation and excitement levels were rising.

"What's the deal with you and Gayle, now?" Josh asked Jono, as the two of the paused for a cookie break.

"Dunno," Jono answered with a shrug. "I mean... we'll see." He stuffed more cookies into his mouth and then said for an abrupt change in topic, "I wonder what everyone else is up to."

SCOTTY!

"Already did it." Logan grinned, showing many teeth. He took another chug of his beer. "You know Emma's not coming, either..."

"She's not?" Scott's sense of obligation and responsibility warred silently with his common sense. "So it's going to be me, and you, and these students. And me and you. Just you."

His head spun. "I'm sorry, I think I need to sit down for a minute."

"I can bow out if it worries you so much." Logan flickered with a glimmer of hope. "You can handle a team of X-men, I'm sure a plane full of teenagers is no problem!"

He chuckled. "The Maker's going, playing tech-lackey for Dazzler's band...whatever it's called this time around."

"Oh no. No SIR. You got me into this and you will see it through." Obligation won out again. "If you are not packed and ready to go - I'm packing for you. And I think you know what that means."

Scott marched off towards his room. "If the band's going, at least there will be some good entertainment."

"Didn't know you were a fan," Logan called after him. "You should mention it to Blaire, she's probably got a T-shirt in your size!"
