The accent was fine to Topher. Then again, he'd grown up around Colossus.

"Sorry," Topher apologized. "I didn't mean to startle you there." At least he wasn't one of the ones who could phase through walls or something. Topher reached out to shake his hand. "I kind of figured. You had that deer caught in the headlights of an oncoming Shi'ar ship thing going on." Funny how one took things like Shi'ar ships for granted when one was used to their existence. "Here, let me help you with the bags. We can hang out in the library or the common room until the headmistress figures out paperwork and your rooming sitch." Sometimes it felt as though no matter how full the school was - and the school was already teeming with students despite the fact that the semester hadn't started yet - there was always room for more.

"Unless you wanna do the whole hanging out in the lobby thing some more. I mean, there's something to be said for lurking near the entrances." Anytime they ordered pizza from Salem Center, Topher did just that. Partially to stave off any unruly use of power, and partially because, hey, the pizza boy could be a cutie.
