Seeking Good Home

[dazzle_daybreak]

So, it had been made official. Jeremiah was going back to Avalon. He'd offered up and down for Josephine to come with her, including multiple assurances that his Mother and Father would be happy to have her live with them, but she'd politely declined. Avalon was his home, and his life, not hers. If this dimension was her home, for another day or for the rest of her life, she was going to have to really make it hers.

Of course, that left the concern of where to actually live. The city was expensive, and even though the very nice allowance from Not-Mama was probably still something she could count on, living alone didn't appeal to her, and she didn't have any friends close enough for her to imagine sharing a place with them.

So, she did what any homeless mutant in the know would do.

She called Xavier's.

Lorna accepted the documents that Josephine handed her and walked over to the copier/printer/scanner and scanned them, listening carefully as the girl spoke.

"Rachel explained as much to me," she said once Josephine was finished. "Don't worry. Between the staff and some of our more advanced students, you'll find all the help you need in those areas," she said, sitting back down. She handed Josephine's documents back to her. "Just don't let any of our telepaths upload your class information to your head," she warned. "Students have tried that in the past, and it doesn't always end well."

She nodded her head. "Your knowledge will also come in handy. There are things there that not all of our students know, and in case of any emergencies - sometimes field trips have a tendency of becoming prolonged adventures - you'll be a great asset, I'm sure." She smiled warmly at Josephine. "Whether you become a lawyer, a singer, a teacher, a doctor, or a mutant superhero, Ms. Blaire-Bennet, you will make a difference. It all only depends on how you choose to make that difference."
