BWI Airport Portalocity Lounge, Saturday Morning
Nina was totally on board with walking through the big, swirly magical portal thing with Lady Teresa, Shin, and Mistress Jeane looking on. Okay, no, she really wasn't, but Lady Teresa watched her with eyes full of faith and that a) made it hard to do anything to let her down and b) distracted Nina from her envy over Mistress Jeane's scantily clad… va-va-voom.
"Keep in touch, Nina," Lady Teresa said as the portal popped into existence in front of them.
Nina hefted her bookbelt and grinned. "I'll be fine, Lady Teresa, I promise!!!!!!! I'll write you right away and tell you all about it!!!!!!"
It was, like, totally super satisfying as some of her classmates got to shove her trunks through the portal before her. But then it meant she had to go through it and--there was no way she was letting Lady Teresa see that she had any qualms at all about this!
"Lord Shin," she said, as she turned to go, "you'd better make sure to look after Lady Teresa!!!! I won't be there to pick up your slack, you know!!!!!"
And then, before he could respond to that, though she heard Lady Teresa laugh, Nina strode through the portal, her back straight, her stride strong, her nerves jangling… and promptly, on the other side, tripped over her trunks.
"Owwwwwwww!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Nina popped up to her feet immediately, despite her aching knees, just in case, like anyone could see her, and stuck her tongue out at the portal, which blipped out of existence, utterly shameless.
It was only once Nina primly sat down on one of her trunks (and did not at all collapse onto it, really) that she took a good look around her.
Glitter, check. Balloons, check. Banner for the school, check…
And literally no one else.
"Oh my gosh!!!!!!!!!!"
Was she late?!?!?!?!?!?! Was she early?!?!?!?!
[Please to be waiting for the OCD is up, up, and away!]

Wait for the Shuttle!!!!!!!!!!
Re: Wait for the Shuttle!!!!!!!!!!
Vette (who might or might not have been the person in question), stood there for a moment with her arms outstretched, blinking away the sudden bright light in the room.
And then slowly lowered her hands as she looked around.
"... Oooookayyyyyy."
The balloons were unexpected. Definitely very unexpected.
Re: Wait for the Shuttle!!!!!!!!!!
She could totally cope with that!!!!
"Oh my gosh!!!! Are you okay?!?!?!?!"
Re: Wait for the Shuttle!!!!!!!!!!
"That," she said, "is an excellent question. Let me get back to you on that in just one moment?"
She moved one hand away from her face and glanced around the room again.
"... I don't know why I was expecting it to make more sense a second time around."

She was paying so much attention to that, along with floating her trunk along next to her, that it took her a moment after it closed to actually look around the place.
Well. She wasn't sure what she'd been expecting, but it certainly wasn't this.
Re: Wait for the Shuttle!!!!!!!!!!
Nina clapped her hands to her mouth, looking abashed, before lowering them and saying, "I'm Nina!!!!! Hi, are you here for the school?!?!?!"

Well. On Nar Shaddaa, in Vette's particular neck of the woods, maybe. But on the other hand, the galaxy was kind of crawing with Sith and Jedi...
Pardon Vette's candor, Lana. She still wasn't convinced she hadn't hit her head on something and was hallucinating right now. She'd been in a crypt about ten minutes ago. Now there was glitter.

He slowed though, for a moment, fearing that he might have already missed the spot where the shuttle would take them to the school. Did he miss it, totally blow right by it? Or was he just getting to nervous and should just keep on? Keep on, he decided, resolutely, and if it turned out he missed it and the bus left without him, well, he could figure out. He grew up on the streets of Insomnia, how hard would it be to navigate around here?
Thankfully, not too many steps more and he caught that first glimpse of glitter in the lights and he knew he was right to have kept on. He couldn't help laughing at the display, and it made his heart jump a little with a thrill that any place with that decked out of a banner had to be a pretty great place. "I thiiiiink I may have found the right spot," he said, to no one in particular, lifting his camera and getting a few shots of the display from a couple of different angles before drifting into the lounge with a big, eager grin on his face.
"Smile for the camera, everyone!" he said to the people gathered there already, waving a hand and being slow on the shutter in case there were any objections, and realizing that, yeah, the camera was a good thing, because he could hide behind it a little longer to get a grip on his nerves.
Re: Wait for the Shuttle!!!!!!!!!!
Nina wasn't smiling for anything until she knew that!!!!!
Even if he was, like, totally pretty cute!
Re: Wait for the Shuttle!!!!!!!!!!
Another good reason to be thankful to be hidden by the camera, so the pretty face asking him a question like what's a camera wouldn't notice him totally gawking for a moment at being asked a question like what's a camera.
That was when he had to remind himself that he definitely wasn't in Lucin anymore. Hard to imagine there'd still be a part of Eos that was so backwater as to not know what cameras were, though.
"Uh, this!" Prompto recovered quickly, lifting the device up a little with a shake, hoping to win her over with as charming a smile as he could muster. Sure, maybe if charming could effectively be tinged with mortified anxiety. "This is a camera. It's this totally sweet machine that lets you take pictures!"
Please let her at least know what pictures were. And if not, well...it would definitely not be a chore to teach her all about it, no...

He had a duffle over one shoulder and a suitcase being wheeled behind him; neither floated, flew, hovered, or otherwise made itself easier to carry. If he were aware enough to notice, he'd be starting to wonder why that other girl's did. In the meantime, he was going to slump against the wall and close his eyes.
[SP for a bit because of work, but I'm here!]
Re: Wait for the Shuttle!!!!!!!!!!
"Oh my gosh?!?!?!!" Nina was concerned--that was hardly what someone ready to start at a new school would do!!!! "Are you, like, okay?????"

He was about to go say hi, maybe get a picture for posterity, but faltered once he saw the other guy sit back and closed his eyes. Aww, man, he couldn't bother the guy if he was trying to get a moment's rest! So nervous, shy, and arguably polite Prompto won out in the case, figuring he'd have other chances to introduce himself later. If he just didn't completely wuss out or whatever.

Or who hadn't been expecting to end up here in the first place.
"You know, you can nap if you need to," she said, tilting her head at the boy. "Somebody can wake you up if anything interestng happens."

When it became totally clear that there was no adult coming to, like, drive the bus shuttle thing, Nina wandered over to it and tried the doors.
They opened.
Because she knew the full saying about the cat and it's curiosity, she scampered inside, sweeping the interior with a glance (if only to check for a passed out adult or something; just to say she tried) and then, since they were going to miss the picnic if they didn't do something...
Nina leaned out of the bus and called, "Anyone, like, know how to drive this thing?!?!?!?!"
