[OoC: I'm not sure what happened to my post from this morning but it has apparently disappeared.

While listen to his students catch up, the Professor smiles to himself and hoped the other students would be equally as welcoming. Niall had not lived at the mansion for very long before he left with the White Queen so he didn't have much time to bond with the other students. The Professor thought it possible Ashley was more friendly due to their time when Nanny and Orphan Maker attacked the mansion. Several students including Niall, Ashley (Graffiti), Johnny (Interface), and Demi (Gloom), were turn into children. In her mentally addled perception, Nanny believes that parents of mutant children are evil, especially those who abandon their children, or at the very least incompetent and ill-equipped to properly raise and protect young mutants from danger and exploitation. She and Orphan-Maker travelled the world, searching for young mutants to take care of, murdering their parents to sever any family connections, and using her minor telepathic powers to control her new charges. Nanny dubbed these children her "Lost Boys and Girls", after the Lost Boys from the story of Peter Pan; in her psychosis, Nanny had developed a near-obsession with children's tales and nursery rhymes, often quoting passages from them appropriate (in her mind) to the situation at hand. Unfortunately for Nanny, the 4 students got away from her and basically terrorized her long enough for the older students to defeat Orphan Maker and rescue them.
"That would be a good idea," The Professor chimes in when Niall mentions going to his room. "Ashley, It may be only for tonight but can you show Niall to one of the guest rooms. I'm still waiting on Jack's decision to decide which dorm Niall will be assigned to. I like to have students paired up. If Jack leaves then Malcolm will have a bed open in his room. If he stays then we will have to put three students in one of the larger room."
