When In Rome
Every year at the end of the school year there was a dance held at Xavier's Institute of Higher Learning. It wasn't a prom so to speak because all the students were invited, not just the juniors and seniors. This year the students were asked what they wanted to do and the consensus was that they wanted to take a trip instead of holding a dance.

Their destination, they decided, was Rome and they would be there for a week.

Rome provided many museums and historical sites for an educational benefit, but it also had many clubs and other spots for entertainment. The days would be spent taking tours around the historical sites and museums around the city. The students would be allowed to go out at night. The older kids would be allowed out on their own, while the younger ones would be allowed out with a chaperone.

Logistics were worked out and a floor of a hotel in the heart of Rome was reserved. Airline tickets were purchased and the students were transported to the hotel.

Ten hours later they stepped off the plane in Italy and were taken to their hotel to freshen up.

Jessica managed a smile, finding it didn't take much effort as she thought it would.

"Sounds like a plan then."

David agrees while checking on his back pack. They would have to get to the hotel. Then they could get what they needed.

Maybe food once they were more settled in too. He knew once his stomach was settled he'd get hungry.

"The hotel and then Rome!" Cait beamed. It felt great to be in another country and another city.

Technically, Jessica could probably go to Rome any time she wanted to. With her potential maximum flight speed, crisscrossing the globe was potentially easy. Granted, her reaction times did not match that, but...

She followed along with the others, a small smile on her face.

Lucas frequently has to run to catch back up to the others, since every single cathedral or even especially old piece of architecture has gotten him to stop and marvel.
That, and he usually gets to ask directions or get information, because apparently he speaks the local language, fluently.

Corey thanked Misha for the suggestion. And he would sulk if Lucas encroached too much on his reading the most interesting of the inscriptions to everyone.

Misha was looking forward to a hot shower and a change of clothes. Flying always made him feel grungy when he arrived at his destination.

"How about we find our rooms, do whatever - no descriptions necessary, and meet back on the street in say... an hour to go look for food and explore some on foot before we get started on the tours tomorrow?."

"Sounds good to me. I want to go back and take a look at a couple of the cathedrals again. Anyone want to come along?"

"A shower would be heavenly," Cait said with a dreamy sigh. "I always feel grungy after a long flight." Cait had been on enough long flights to and from Nova Roma. "Then I'd love to explore a little."

Showering. Yet another thing she didn't do. Solid light didn't sweat, ergo, she didn't develop any layers of filth or stink.

"I, um," she said, "need to make sure my sleeping pod gets set up right, but then I'll be good."

Showers. Pshaw. "Sounds good."
And he nodded to Lucas. "I'd love to, y'know, post-milk-issues."
