Rating: PG
Xavier Mansion - Quad
There is a square side walk of pavement with a nice grassy area in the middle with a few stone benches and trees along the corners. The pavement leads to the paths to the grounds of the school, the Dining Hall in Xavier's and the Ramsey Dormitories. It's not particularly large but it's a nice place for students and teachers to relax and enjoy the outdoors.
It's a beautiful day out, sun's out, a nice breeze and barely any humidity. It's not odd to find many students enjoying the outdoors though, it might be odd to find Quill with the two objects he has, a leaf blower and a five pound bag of flour. He went to the kitchen first and is now making his way from the garage to the dorms, whistling to himself as he lugs the two items - one in each arm. Todays the day for the little porcupine Corsair as he is going to let Max know there can be only one.
New students don't come around too often, but out in the quad, Moniqa steps from the dorms. She's dressed rather nicely today, in a light blouse and appropriate shorts for school. Her hair is long today, with an intricate braid holding the rest. If she were a blond male, it cold be said that she was doing the 'Legolas' braid system. But, it's just her. Seeing the porcupine student with the items, she raises any eyebrow but says nothing just yet.
Spotting Moniqa, Max gives her a big grin. "Hellooo there braided lady. Don't worry, nothint to see here. Move about your business, there is no man behind the curent. The great and powerful Oz is not seeing any visitors today!" He says to her as he definately has the look, and attitude, that he's up to no good. As he moves along he sings to himself, quite off key. "Ooooo, the weather outside is frightful, but the but the fire is sooooo delightful, and since we've no place to go, let it snow, let is snow, let. it. snow!"
Flour. Leafblower. Song about snowing. "Ok, who pissed you off and how?" She asks, simply, unable to resist a light grin. "And it's not braided lady. I'm not old enough to be lady." She can't resist moving along to follow and see for herself.
The grin is directed again at Moniqa. "Do I look pissed off? Nope! Not pissed at all! Just…a little…challenge." He says chuckling a bit. "And okay then, braided girl! Or is it braided lass, what about The Incredible Braided Chick…nah Chick doesn't have the right ring to it. Anyway, I'm Max, also known as Quill." He says juggling the leaf blower for a bit before putting it down and offering a fuzzy hand.
"Moniqa. With a q." The girl says, shaking her head. "Though, I suppose my braids could be incredible if I wanted them to be. Alright. Not pissed off. What's the challenge?" She asks, tilting her head. "That would require winter music, flour and a leaf blower. Though… for what I'm seeing putting two and two together, perhaps a snowblower would be more apropos."
Quill makes a face. "Well..nice to meet you Moniqa. With a q." That's going to be her name from now going forward. "No…a snowblower woudn't work at all. And the music isn't required, just the leafblower and the flour. And the challenge…" He power poses putting one finger in the air and announces : "There can be only one Max around here! And he's gonna know that. Though…John's just gonna be caught in the mess. I could use cornstartch instead but flour comes in five pounds, cornstarch…just a small box."
Moniqa just shakes her head. "You know… this is probably going to start a prank war that others will continue getting caught in the middle of." She says with a bit of a grin. "After all, everybody hs to live here… and deal with each other." THough, she's not trying to turn him away from it. Just making a statement.
"Phbbbbbbbbbbbt" Max says in reply. "It's a little fun, if he can up the ante after this, so can I, until I prove that this Max reigns supreme!" He doesn't know how long Moniqa…with a q…has been here as he's just returned to the school recently himself to find way to many new faces. "If you're a student here, you're free game. Only ones that are safe from me…rigth now…are my fellow Corsairs. Mainly cause Goofy Googles…ya don't wanna piss him off…to much." And the grin is back.
"I should be fair game. If you know what's good for you." Moniqa says with an innocent smile. "At least, I think you should. But then, that's just me. You don't want to piss off a girl from the ghetto." She says with a nod. But then, she's not really from the ghetto. But… Max doesn't know that.
"Well are you a fellow Corsair? I don't remember being told Moniqa, with a q, was on the squad. So…if you aren't, like I said earlier, fair game." Max says chuckling. "And fah, ghetto, what's that supposed to mean to me. I'm from Jersey, if I can survive the smells and big hair I can survive anything!" He says giving a thumbs up. "Seriously though, Jersey smell….ugh!" Especially since he developed a better sense of smell.
"It means I fight dirty. And my powers plus Boys' parts… is not pretty." Moniqa remains innocent on this one. "But we'll leave that for another day. Though I don't see why you're so pissed about a name. Just start calling him Max2 or something. That'll irritate him enough. He can't legally change his name without parents' permission."
Quill sighs and rolls his eyes. "I'm not pissed off. I'm having fun. God your such a spoil sport." Girls. They don't understand fun or funny or anything amusing. "Yeeeeah…I don't want to know what your powers have to do with boy parts. I'll just remeber to leave a few quills in your carpet outside your dorm room though." Is he joking or is he not, it's hard to tell with that smile of his.
"I find quills, you get to find out." Moniqa says with a grin. "And what do you mean no fun. I'd find it LOTS of fun to show you." She teases. "Though what is with all the animalistic mutations. Not that there's anything wrong with it, it's just… odd to think that so many mutations go towards animal types, rather than to other things." She ponders.
Quill shrugs. "I ain't a scientist. Hell I barely passed the test for my last biology class so don't ask me. And I've just met James, thaaaaaaaaaat's about it. Then there is Nick but I haven't seen him around yet." Max isn't sure if Wolf Cub is still around or not. "Lots of fun to show me, eh? Is that you hitting on me? Are you flirting? Cause you know…I am awesome." He doesn't really think she is but how she said it, Max can't help but tease.
"Oh, I don't think YOU'D like it very much." AS for flirting, Moniqa isn't, but doesn't say either way. It's not ladylike to say what she thinks. Right now. She just met him. She'll save it for a week or two. "My roommate. Jinx. She looks like a skunk." That's about all she knows. What she's been told.
"Don't think I'd like what, your type of fun? What what is it, doing girly things like hair and nails and make-up and talking about boys?" Quill says as, that's what girls do for fun, right? At least his sisters did that type of stuff. "I haven't met Jinx..and skunk eh? I dunno, my roommate's just a giant walking carpet. Kinda like Chewbacca but less…long haired and arm rippy."
"Oh, I can do hair and nails. But once again…" Moniqa begins a throaty laugh. After all, with the right kind of fake nails… "Don't worry about it. I'm sure you'll figure it out soon enough. Maybe when you're a little older." That usually gets'em
Quill just raises a quilled brow at Moniqa. "Really, when I'm older. You're kidding me right? I mean seriously, that's the best excuse you can come up. If you wanna be all mysterious with your powers the whole 'when you're older' bit doesn't really work so well. I mean that's a step down from saying 'I could tell you but then I'd have to kill you'. Ya gotta be more…creative with it Moniqa with a q."
"Oh, I'm creative enough." She says, pointing to her hair. "I just don't really have time. I need to go meet my training squad leader." Moniqa explains.
"Okay, well it was nice meeting you Moniqa with a q, I gotta go make is snow in Max's room! Stay loose mongoose!" Quill calls as he whistles 'let it snow' as he walks into the dorm with his flour and leafblower.
