2/3 Instance: MoJo Madness

[NachtcGleiskette]

[Elizabeth] Lizzie sat with her feet up on one of the lecture room chairs, inspecting her nails boredly as she waited. This was going to be interesting...

[Angel] Angel wandered in the auditorium and picked a seat. Wow, they hadn't had one of these yet this year. What this time? She hoped it wasn't the virginity now dude again. She looked around at the people filing in .... it was a little late for that with this crowd.

[Elizabeth] Hoping that it was going to eb as interesting as Spider-Gimp was, she saw Angel and waved to her, grinning.

[Rahne] Rahne slumped down on a chair near the back and yawned, mentally reciting everything she'd packed so far and trying to remember if there was anything she missed.

[Angel] She grinned cheekily at Lizzie. "Hey! What's up?"

[Longshot] John walked into the auditorium and took a seat in the back.

[Dr.Xavier] Xavier watched everyone file in. He was certainly unsure of this idea, but it was the students choice. They were all over 18 afterall.

[Japheth] Japh half slouched into the large room, finding a seat then slumped into it. He's been feeling more and more tired lately.

[Elizabeth] "Same old," she smiled at Angel. "Do you know what this thing is about?"

[Longshot] Hearing Lizzie talking about what was going on John listened to try and findout what was happening

[Angel] She shrugged and twisted around in her seat to see who else had come in. She waved at Rahne... but she looked preoccupied.

[Fr.Wagner] * Fr.Wagner wandered in through the back door and stood leaning against the wall. Charles hadn't told him exactly what this was about, only that he'd find it "interesting and educational".

[MoJo] Montana looked about the assembled students with a small smile. This may prove to be well worth the investment.

[Rahne] Rahne caught Angel out of the corner of her eye and waved back.

[Elizabeth] "Poor Rahne..." Lizzie sighed at Angel and turned to face the front. There were people on the stage and they weren't wearing gimp suits.

[Fr.Wagner] That could mean anything from Spider Jerusalem (who's writing Kurt actually admired even if it was a little heavy on the explatives) or another sex talk about going to hell which would be ... terrific.

[Devon] Devon stood beside his boss, bottle of Bling H2O at the ready, whenever she happened to feel parched. He straightened himself up a bit as everyone entered, fixing the curl in his hair. Perfect.

[Longshot] Seeing a strange chick in the auditorium John frowned. :Who is she?" He muttered to himself

[Dr.Xavier] ((http://a.abc.com/primetime/uglybetty/im ... 60x240.jpg <---MoJo and Devon))

[Angel] "Yeah..... I feel for her, but, I just don't know what to say..." She followed Lizzie's eyes to the stage. "Huh, what's with the fashion show?"

[Summers] Scott darted through the door, rubbing his arm. He looked at the two new people standing at the front askance, then slid into a seat next to Angel, away from the direct sunlight.

[Fr.Wagner] Kurt looked at the people on the stage and frowned. They looked ... Hollywood.

[Elizabeth] "Well it helps if we can ever find her," she shrugged, eyeing the people on the stage. "I don't know. Maybe we're getting new uniforms designed for us?"

[Rahne] Rahne rubbed her arms sadly and looked down when she saw the awkward looks Lizzie and Angel were giving her.

[Longshot] Seeing the way the girl was scaning the crowd John slumped down in his chair and tucked his hands under his arms.

[Dr.Xavier] "Students! If I can have your attention please!"

[Fr.Wagner] He noticed Rahne looking a little forelorn and sat down next to her.

[Fr.Wagner] "How are you doing?" he asked her quietly.

[Dr.Xavier] "I'd like to introduce Montana Johnson. Ms. Johnson is the head of MoJo television networks. She would like to talk to you about a certain..." he paused, searching for the word. "Opportunity."

[Dr.Xavier] He looked to her, backing away from the podium.

[MoJo] Montana smiled at him curtly, and took the podium. "Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen."

[Rahne] Rahne smiled at Father Kurt "Acctually, I'm pretty good, I'm gonna be goin' o'er ta Englan' ta see Vic."

[Japheth] Japh wiped his face trying give the requested attention, Wow, that woman is so bronzed up she probably lost her real skin colour about the same time Michael Jackson lost his. he thought.

[Longshot] John sat up straight. T.V....this was not looking good.

[Elizabeth] Lizzie raised her eyebrows, sitting up a little. Opportunity? This did not bode well.

[Angel] "Hey, sexy," Angel said to Scott as he slipped in beside her. She did a bit of a double take at the sunglasses, but then he wore them off and on still....

[Fr.Wagner] Kurt smiled. "Yeah, I know. Dr. Guan told me."

[Angel] Television?

[Rahne] "Bu' ... I thin' everyone's feelin' wee bit wierd 'roun' me ..." she gestured towards Lizzie and Angel.

[Fr.Wagner] Kurt looked over at Charles skeptically. He'd had Hollywood people offer him an "opportunity" once. It had sounded good time to him at the time as well.

[MoJo] "How many of you are familiar with MoJo tv?"

[Elizabeth] "Never heard of it. Don't really care," Lizzie shrugged. She missed British TV.

[Rahne] MoJo? She was pretty sure that was a music magazine back home.

[Longshot] John frowned, he had worked as a stunt man in a few different movies and on T.V. and didn't recognize the name.

[Angel] "Don't they do a lot of reality shows....." Angel hadn't watched a lot since she was actually doing homework now.

[MoJo] "Well, we are a popular television network here in the states, for those aware."

[Fr.Wagner] "Well, it's not you Rahne. People have trouble when a friend is hurting. They don't know the right thing to say or do..." Kurt whispered.

[MoJo] "And yes, we have been known to dabble in reality TV as of late. It's whats hot, it's what everyones watching."

[Elizabeth] "Oh. Fair enough....Reality shows?" she glanced sideways at Angel. Oh, nice....

[Japheth] Japh lifted his hand, "Did you make that reality show with the people stranded in the middle of the ocean on a boat?"

[Angel] Angel slipped her hand into Scott's. "So what've you been up to," she whispered. "I haven't seen ya since class."

[MoJo] "And its the best way to take the most ordinary of ordinary," she smiled wider. "And make them a star."

[Rahne] "So ... wha shoul' I do?" Rahne whispered back, ignoring the funny orange lady on stage.

[MoJo] She turned to Japh. "I am actually not at liberty to speak about that, as we are still waiting to go to court with those charges."

[Summers] "Testing with Dr. McCoy." Scott whispered back.

[Longshot] John's face went white. "Reality T.V." He gasped.

[Fr.Wagner] "Don't try to become a television star first off," Kurt said.

[Summers] Scott snorted. Survivor was one thing, but...what on earth was she planning?

[Rahne] Rahne frowned "I dinnae watch T.V. ... wha's reality T.V?"

[MoJo] "Let's cut to the chase, shall we?" She leaned down on the podium in what she hoped was a more 'relatable' position.

[Elizabeth] Oh dear God. Xavier really DID have hidden cameras in the Danger Room!

[Fr.Wagner] "I think it's television that's not really real, but proposes to be," Kurt whisped to Rahne. "I don't watch T.V. either."

[Angel] "Oh?" She rubbed his arm gently. He'd been seeing a lot of McCoy... She looked up at the stage. Cutting to the chase was good. What the hell did her reality shows have to do with them....oh.

[Japheth] Japh leaned a bit forward to see MoJo a little better, below her neck.

[MoJo] "I have learned much about mutants, and thought it was time for the world to start getting to know those like you."

[MoJo] She moved out from behind the podium, spreading her hands. "Why not start here?"

[Angel] Angel widened her eyes and looked at Lizzie. OMG!!

[Summers] Uh oh... Scott glanced at Angel and Lizzie in horror.

[Fr.Wagner] Oh no. That was the worst idea ... possibly ever.

[Elizabeth] Lizzie couldnt help but laugh at that. There were so many reasons why they shouldn't....Unless...MoJo was a porn channel?

[MoJo] "I want to share you with the world, give them a glimpse into young mutant lives, show them that you all are really not that different."

[Rahne] Rahne blinked in horror "I dinnae wanna be on TV ... everyone'll see me!"

[Fr.Wagner] 'Young mutant lives'? Was she joking? Was Charles insane?

[Japheth] Japh sat back, contemplating what MoJo was telling them, and the fact his field of view was blocked when she leaned back herself.

[Longshot] John started shacking and gasping for breath. No way....This was a joke...A sick joke.

[Angel] There had been a time where she would have given anything to be on TV....but....well... She chewed her bottom lip in thought.

[Rahne] Rahne looked terrified "No way man! I dinnae wan' people thinkin' I'm a werewolf or naethin'!"

[Rahne] She looked around, wishing Remy was here.

[Summers] "What do you think?" he asked Angel and Lizzie.

[Elizabeth] Well...It was interesting. It'd certainly be bloody funny. Plus, if something went wrong, one quick call to James would settle things. He knew people who knew people etc etc.

[Elizabeth] Plus, it wasn't like she didnt even have an idea of her rights for these kinds of things, she thought to herself remembering all the paperwork from her few modelling jobs back in summer.

[MoJo] "Of course, there are certain legalities concerned here. We need everyone who plans to take part in this will have to sign releases," she gestures to her assistant.

[Japheth] Japh yawned slightly, thinking that it might be nice to be famous, plus he didn't have anything to do but school, just as well do this.

[Devon] Devon stepped forward, holding the releases up, giving the crowd an intense look. He was so hot.

[Angel] "I don't know..... I always wanted to be on TV," she said. "But more as a sit-com star than a VH1 reality ho...."

[Longshot] Hearing about the legal stuff John started to relax...That meant if he just locked himself in his room he would be alright....

[Elizabeth] Nodding slightly, she turned to Angel and Scott. "At least she's giving us the option. I'm going to email a copy of te release to James before I sign it though."

[Rahne] Rahne looked around before tentavily raising one hand "Uhh ... Miss Mojo-lady?"

[Angel] Angel nodded, her eyes still on the stage and the overly dramatic assistant modeling paperwork.

[Devon] Devon stepped up. "That's Ms. Johnson, thank you."

[MoJo] "Devon, please," she said, looking to the girl with a smile. "Can I help you with something?"

[Rahne] Rahne blinked "Uhh ... how lon' ye gonnae be here fer? Ta film an' stuff?"

[Summers] "It wouldn't be like that, Angel. They're filimg us. Nobody here would act like that."

[MoJo] "We'd probably have the cameramen in here a few months. 24 hours a day, for a full season."

[Elizabeth] "Would it be live feed or would it be prefilmed so we'd get to see the tapes beforehand?" Lizzie asked, making an attempt to raise her hand but not putting much effort into it

[Angel] She gave Scott a playful leer. "What do you think of it?"

[Longshot] John gasped. "A few MONTHS!!!!" How was he suppose to live in his room for that long.

[Rahne] "Oh .... okay than's ..." Maybe by the time the court case was over they'd be gone.

[MoJo] "We will only be filming those who sign the releases," she motioned to Devon.

[Longshot] Ducking his head John hoped the MoJo lady hadn't heard him.

[Elizabeth] "Can I take the release away and give it back later?"

[Summers] He rolled his eyes in return. "I think you should if you want. I don't think I'm going to - I don't want my face on TV. . .for personal reasons."

[MoJo] "So, Devon will hand out release forms."

[Devon] He stepped down. "Please come and take a form!"

[Longshot] Sitting back john crossed his arms over his chest. He was DEFINATLY not taking a form.

[Elizabeth] Looking at Angel Lizzie shrugged. "Should we?"

[Elizabeth] "I'll take a form just so I can find out if it's kosher."

[Rahne] Rahne looked thoughtfull for a moment ... well ... it couldn't hurt could it just to look at the form?

[Angel] Personal reasons? Oh. "Well, I don't know...." She looked at Lizzie. "Ah, what the hell, si?"

[Summers] "Go on, go get a form, you two."

[Longshot] John smiled. "If only a few people signed up then mabey they would have to leave...They couldn't film classes if only a few people in the class had signed the form."

[Japheth] Japh stood up and took one of the forms from the white Ru Paul wannabe, "Thank you," he mumbled and sat down at his desk again.

[Longshot] John looked over at Angel and Lizzie talking about getting a form and frowned.

[Rahne] Rahne collected a form and went back to her seat, peering at it ... it looked very complicated.

[Elizabeth] Standing up with Angel she picked her way to the front, tossing her hair back over her shoulders and took one of the forms from the Tango's minion, giving him a bright smile.

[Longshot] Seeing Japh take a form he cursed. He cursed again when Rahne grabbed one.

[Angel] Angel got up, waiting for Lizzie, and got a form from the guy with plastic hair.

[MoJo] "If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask!"

[Longshot] Seeing the two girls grabbing form John sent a scowl their way....If peopel got forms then he would have to hide in his room to aviod the camera's.

[Angel] She studied the form. "Does it look legit to you, Liz?" She didn't want to give away the rights to her own face forever or anything....

[Summers] Scott looked over at the form. "Legalese."

[Elizabeth] Flicking thorugh it she shrugged. "It looks alright, I guess. I just really don't wnat to sign it without my brother seeing it first."

[Rahne] Rahne raised a hand "Is this gonna be like tha thin' Meggan was watchin where all tha people live in tha house an tha get money at tha en'?"

[Longshot] Standing up John scowled at MoJo. "What are you going to do if someone who signed a form always hangs out with someone who didn't sign a form.

[Rahne] "'Cos those people were really mean people."

[Angel] Oh, there was a thought...."The camera dudes don't follow you into your bedroom do they?" She shot a look at Xavier, nodding off in the corner. She hated to draw attention to her living arrangement...

[MoJo] "The camera's are everywhere. At all times. Except the bathroom."

[Elizabeth] Lizzie snorted and sent Xavier a gentle telepathic nudge. It wouldn;t look good if Tnago noticed he was asleep.

[Longshot] "Then what do those who don't sign do."

[Angel] She gave Scott a stricken look.

[Devon] She smiled at Lizzie. "Well, thats a lovely effect."

[Elizabeth] Her butterly flared a little more redder than nromal as she turned to look at the front. "It's what I do. Partly."

[Rahne] Rahne looked a little panic striken "Wait ... so ye'll like be filmin' us while we sleep an' stuff?"

[Longshot] John sighed. Nobody was answering him...."Excuse me Ms. Johnson...What do those of us who don't sign do?"

[MoJo] "These are the things we would like to focus on."

[Rahne] The last thing she wanted was for her nightmares to be broadcasted all over the world.

[MoJo] "We want the world to see that mutants are just like everyone else." she turned to the red head again.

[Angel] Maybe she could pretend she still lived with Sharon and then sneak out when the camera guy left?

[MoJo] "Bedrooms, everything but the bathroom. Do we have any couples?"

[Elizabeth] "Our powers?! Well, that's what puts us apart from everyone else."

[Longshot] John was starting to get frustrated. "EXCUSE ME!" John shouted.... "Those of us who don't sign...What do we do?"

[Angel] "Um, yeah.... we have a couple couples....." she said, shooting Scott a look.

JeanGrey15 enters this room

[MoJo] "If you do not sign, we will not film you. You're face will be blurred if you appear on film."

[Fr.Wagner] That was all Kurt needed to hear. He didn't want to spend four months hiding in his apartment and teleporting to his classes.

[Devon] She smiled. "Excellent." Ooooo sex! This would be fabulous

[Longshot] John turned towards the door. "if I see my face on film I will sue you for all your earthly possesion." Turning he stalked ut of the room.

[Japheth] Japh scanned through the paper, understanding it up to some level, but was still a little confused with the first party's right's to the second party's something or other that only comes into play with.....Japh was a bit lost now. But he was sure they wouldn't want to screw him over.

[Fr.Wagner] He put his hand on Rahne's shoulder. "If you don't want to participate, there's nothing wrong with that," he said. "You've got a lot going on."

[JeanGrey15] Jean came running in the auditorium knowing that she was over an hour late, and quickly grabbebed a seat and sat down

[Summers] Scott looked back. In our room? Hell no.

[Elizabeth] "Can we back out on this if we change our minds or are there any legal clauses?" Lizzie asked looking up from the release.

[Rahne] Rahne looked up at Father Kurt "If tha worl' sees me on tha telly tha gonna thin' 'werewolf' arn't they?" She asked sadly

[MoJo] "This is a legally binding contract. You cannot break it."

[Angel] Angel didn't like that look on the aged Barbie's face. "Maybe I shouldn't do this...." she told Scott. But! But! What if it was her chance to be a star?

[Elizabeth] "Thought so," Lizzie smiled prettily and settled back in her seat. Yup.

[Angel] She didn't like that either. "Oh, I bet my grandpa could break it..." she told Lizzie and Scott.

[Rahne] "I canna read tha tiny print," Rahne chimed in "Ye need ta use a bigger font thin' ..."

[Fr.Wagner] Kurt shrugged. "That's the problem. You can't control what other people think of you, especially not if there's an editor involved," he added with a smile.

[JeanGrey15] "Sooo I'm confused...I just came in, what can't we break?" Jean asked

[Fr.Wagner] "Can I see it?" Kurt asked, pointing to Rahne's contract.

[Elizabeth] Laughing at Angel's comment, she nodded. "I'm tempted. Just because If I do it then that means a first year wont have to. And lets face it, they'l soon tire of follwing me around. And there are so many thngs that can happen to a camera in say, the hanger..."

[Rahne] Rahne passed the contract over to Kurt "I dinnae thin' I'll sign ... 'sides I'm gonna be away fer alot o' this anyway aye?"

[Summers] "I bet he could send someone to break it..." Scott hedged. Her Grandpa looked like the ideal mob godfather.

[MoJo] "Well, if you will all review your contracts, and you can submit them to Dr. Xavier here and we will start filming as soon as we can."

[MoJo] She smiled to them, and began striding out of the room, Devon hot on her tail.

[Fr.Wagner] Kurt took out his glasses and started reading. He hadn't had to sign contracts until he'd joined Cirque and theirs had been quite straightforward.

[Angel] Angel laughed - Oh, Lizzie would destroy this show. She noticed Scott's slight squirm. "Si, that too..." she bared her teeth. "But I won't do this silly thing if you don't want me to."

[Fr.Wagner] His movie contract, on the otherhand, had been a tangled web of provisions and clauses that tied his image to the character and the production company for years. But he hadn't really known what he was looking at. It had just sounded like fun and so he'd signed it.

[Angel] She looked at the redhead. "Speaking of a first year..." she said to Lizzie.

[Summers] "'Chezza, if you want to do it, go ahead. since Im not under contract, if I were to accidentally ruin a camera here or there...no sweat."

[Elizabeth] "Yeah?"

[Rahne] Rahne looked around the auditorium, wondering if now was a good time to make her announcement.

[Angel] "They're gonna do a reality show here," Angel told the new girl, feeling bad for her confusion.

[Fr.Wagner] He scratched his head. The whole "reality TV" thing seemed to add a whole new legal dimension to it. They weren't "characters", they were people, and once they signed, their lives would be in the hands of the television editors.

[JeanGrey15] "Oh thanks...that makes sense..."

[Elizabeth] Rolling her eyes and smiling at the first year girl, she added. "Yeah. They need to get your permission and you have to be over eighteen, but it's all up to you."

[Rahne] Rahne stood up on her chair and waved her arms, trying to get people's attention.

[Angel] She kissed Scott enthusiastically. "Grazie, amore! I'll try to ditch them, when we..." she blushed.

[Fr.Wagner] Kurt wasn't a lawyer, but he recognized the careful wording to avoid participants suing for "slander", "defamation of character", and "accidental death and dismemberment". (Well, the last one wasn't on there, but it might as well have been, Kurt thought.)

[Rahne] "Umm ...."

[JeanGrey15] "I'm actually 18... today is my birthday..." Jean said

[Summers] "Er...yes. I can make them leave too." Scott said, flushing, and glancing at the other people in the room.

[Rahne] "Ye all know 'bout Vic aye?" She fiddled with her necklace "Well ... I'm goin' o'er ta Englan' ta be a character witness fer him ... so fr'm tamorrow I'll be gone ...." Rahne trailed off and mumbled "Jus' though' ye shoul' know ..."

[Elizabeth] Kneeling on the seat, Lizzie looked over in suprise. "Rahne! Oh, why didnt you tell us before!"

[Japheth] After the third time reading through it Japh decided to sign it, but couldn't find a pen on himself. Japh shifted through he seats to the nearest person, that being Scott.

[Fr.Wagner] Kurt had been about to hand Rahne back her unsigned contract, but when she stood up he held onto it, unconsciously folding it in his hands.

[Japheth] "Hey Scott, you got a pen on you?" he asked him.

[Summers] Turning around, Scott gaped at her in surprise. "Good luck. I hope he wins."

[Rahne] Rahne sat back down and rubbed the back of her head Cos i've been hiding "Err ... 'cos I dinnae thin' it was tha 'portant?"

[Talia] TJ stepped into the Auditorium. Whew, everyone was still here. She'd FORGOTTEN AGAIN about something important and ran here when she realised she was already over an hour late.

[Talia] She spied Lizzie and moved over to her. "What's going on?"

[Elizabeth] "Oh, Rahne..." she sighed and went over to her. "Of course it is. I've been worried about you - are you okay?"

[Summers] He handed Japh a pen. "Here you go. So you're going to do it, huh?"

[Elizabeth] "Oh, hey Tee - basically, we're all the new spangly stars for MoJo reality TV."

[Talia] "TV show? We're gonna be on a TV show?!" TJ asked. NO WAY!

[Rahne] Rahne shrugged You mean appart from horrible room-mates and nightmares about your grandfather burning you at the stake "Umm ... fine ..."

[Fr.Wagner] Kurt stood up, giving Rahne and Lizzie some space.

[Elizabeth] "If we sign up."

[Japheth] Japh took the pen "Hell ya, why, you think it's a bad idea?"

[Elizabeth] Lizzie gave her a look. Liar. But then, she was a fine one to talk.

[Fr.Wagner] "Just consider all the consequences before you do," Kurt said, tapping Lizzie on the shoulder.

[Elizabeth] "Rahne....Rahne. You can't -" she broke off and looked over her shoulder at Wagner.

[Elizabeth] "Oh, don't worry. This contract is getting emailed to my brother straight after I get out of here."

[Angel] "Good luck, Rahne," she said, after waiting for Lizzie to finish. She gave her an encouraging smile. "I'm sure Vic'll win."

[Talia] "Where do we sign up!?" This was SO COOL!

[Rahne] Rahne cowered slightly from the look Lizzie gave her. "Umm ..."

[Elizabeth] "There are probably some release forms lying around somewhere," Lizzie gestured around the seats. It was a school there were bound to be some dropped somewhere.

[Fr.Wagner] "Good, and if you need to be reminded of what I think of the idea... You can come to my office and look at my scrapbook of embarrassing tabloid photos." Kurt said.

[Angel] Angel picked one up and handed it to TJ "You gonna do it then? What about Remy....."

[Talia] She grabbed at a paper, not even looking it over. "Who has a pen?!"

[Elizabeth] "I think I saw that thanks," she nodded to Wagner, thinking of that time when she broke into his office to call him in Rome. She knelt down next to Rahne and put her hand on her arm.

[Fr.Wagner] As much as he didn't want to, Kurt moved to hand TJ Rahne's folded contract.

[Talia] "Remy'll do it too! Who wouldnt!"

[Talia] She grabbed the second from Wagner. Perfect! One for Remy!

[Angel] She looked at Scott talking to Japh. "Well.... Scott's not, so I dunno if I should..."

[Elizabeth] "I know the deal, mate. Bottling up stuff doesn't help and lying about how you're feeling doesn't help. I've been there enough times and now I know the only way to pull yourself out of a hole is to put a hand up."

[Talia] "Scott's not?! Why not!"

[Rahne] Rahne looked at her hand bleerily ... this four hours of sleep wasn't as working as well as she thought it would.

[Fr.Wagner] "Wait. You have to read contracts before you sign them..." Kurt started to say to Talia and trailed off. That would just guarantee she didn't read it.

[Summers] Scott rolled his eyes at TJ. "Because I don't want my face plastered all over TV."

[Talia] She signed her name to the first, putting the second underneath. She'd have to go find Remy. This was gonna be so much fun!!

[Angel] Angel glanced at him again. "He just doesn't want to." Like she was going to discuss his personal life with TJ. "He said he's cool with me doing it..."

[Talia] "Why not?! Being on TV would be so cool! We'd be famous!"

[Rahne] Rahne looked up at TJ "Wait ... hadn't ye'd better talk ta ya folks 'fore ye sign naethin'?"

[Talia] "I'm 19, I don't hafta!"

[Talia] "Besides, they'd just say no. So why even say anything?"

[Angel] She watched TJ sign and dug for her own pen. They would be famous!

[Rahne] Rahne looked confused "Bu' ... won't ye be in trouble when tha find out?"

[Japheth] Japh signed the contract, then folded it and stuck it in his pocket. "Thank's." He added and gave the pen back to Scott.

[Talia] "Maybe...but I'll be famous!"

[Fr.Wagner] Kurt perched on the back of one of the auditorium chairs, wondering whether to go back to his office and just start tearing his hair out now or hang around in case someone actually wanted his opinion on why this was a bad idea.

[Elizabeth] "Seriously, it is better to get these things checked out," she mused, ooking at the other girls. Well. It was their choice at the end of the day.

[Rahne] Rahne shrugged "Well ... okay ..."

[Summers] Scott grinned at Rahne. "And that's why I'm not doing it. The Bone Boys watch the network shows and if they saw ME everywhere - when I go back I'll never hear the end of it."

[JeanGrey15] "I agree...so is the camera going to follow us...everyone?" Jean asked

[Elizabeth] "Only the people who sign up," Lizzie said to the first year.

[Elizabeth] "Everyone else gets their face fuzzed out."

[JeanGrey15] *Everywhere....I meant" Jean said

[Rahne] "I dinnae thin' I'll sign ... bu' I'll talk ta Nana firs' ... an' Vic ..." She smiled, a genuine smile, she was going to see Vic again.

[Elizabeth] "Yeah. Everywhere but the bathrooms."

[JeanGrey15] "Oh, okay." Jean said

[Fr.Wagner] "Could I ... Maybe..." Kurt held up one hand.

[Angel] "Heh, I bet we can find some other places where they won't follow...."

[Fr.Wagner] No. It was pointless. He was pretty sure they'd all heard this from him before anyway.

[Rahne] Rahne looked around at Kurt "Wha' Father?"

[JeanGrey15] Jean heard what Angel said and started to laugh

[Angel] Angel looked up. Oh, Father Kurt was in here! "Yeah, Father?"

[Fr.Wagner] "Well, you're already trying to figure out ways to stay off camera. They're not even here yet. There's going to be a big crew with lights and equipment. It's not going to be so easy. Are you sure that's what you want in your home?" Kurt asked.

[Talia] "Yes! We get to be famous!"

[Fr.Wagner] "But what will you be famous for?" Kurt asked.

[Angel] She looked at Scott again. She just wasn't sure. But. "Yeah, I'm with Teej - this could open doors!"

[Talia] "Who cares? We're famous!"

[Rahne] Rahne looked down "I dinnae wanna be famous ... an I dinnae wanna be famous fer bein' a 'werewolf'." She sighed, she had a bad feeling about this.

[Summers] Scott shrugged. "Don't look at me - this is your life, 'chezza. Do what you want to do."

[Fr.Wagner] Kurt had to laugh. God. He'd been just like her. Exactly like her.

[Elizabeth] "Then don't do it Rahne. You don't have to."

[Angel] "Look at all those celebs who came offa reality TV! You just have to be smarter than the retarded ones and work it into real acting!"

[Talia] How cool was this? Mel would flip!!

[Talia] Wait...acting? Like Howletts class? Couldnt she just be famous and not act?

[Fr.Wagner] "Well, that is true Angel. Part of it is how you project yourself. It doesn't have to be a bad thing."

[Rahne] Rahne shuffled her feet "If we do this ... will tha school itself become famous?"

[Rahne] "So ... will we be goin' ta a famous school fer ... extraordinaries?"

[Talia] "I guess. Wow!!"

[Fr.Wagner] "I'm not advising anyone against it. But I signed contracts without reading them too and I had years of experience as a performer," Kurt said.

[Angel] She beamed at Wagner. "Yeah! It's all about projection." She signed the paper.

[Rahne] Rahne looked misrable at that, this was starting to look like she was going to be a famous freak just through assosiation with the school.

[Fr.Wagner] "And despite all that experience," Kurt added, "in the end I was notorious for being blue, freaky looking, and frequently drunk in public. That's not the kind of fame I'd wish on anyone."

[Elizabeth] "Rahne, if you dont sign they can't show your face or anything like that. Don't worry."

[Talia] She sighed a bit at what Wagner said, and thought back to what Ali had said to her. Was everyone gonna just think she was an ugly freak?

[Japheth] "You know, I think I'm gonna go give my form in at Xavier's office, any of you who want's me to drop their's off too?" Japh waited for a response.

[Rahne] "I need ta talk ta Nana 'bout this ..." She had a sinking feeling that she would make her come back home ... for her own good.

[Fr.Wagner] "But that was over 20 years ago. Things have changed. I've changed - I don't think that's so much the case anymore," Kurt said.

[Elizabeth] "Right. Well I'm going to go fax this over to James. He'll be able to tell me if its all okay or at leats give it to someone who'll know." Lizzie stood up, tucking the paper under her arm. "Rahne, I'll let you know, okay? And give my love to Vic alright?"

[Angel] "Yeah!" she handed her form to Japh and grinned at him, this would be so fun! He would be on the show... and Teej and Remy!

[Talia] "You can take mine!" she gave it to Japh. She'd have to get Remy's signed tonight.

[Elizabeth] "I'll see you guys later," she waved as she headed towards the doors.

[Summers] Scott grinned, Angel looked so happy. Maybe it would be fun. A few locks and the room would be camera-proof.

[Fr.Wagner] Kurt grinned. They were signing them anyway which... was exactly what he would have done when he was their age.

[Summers] "Bye Lizzie. See you in the DR.

[Elizabeth] "You bet, Scott! See you later!"

[Talia] "Bye Lizzie!" she waved to her.

[JeanGrey15] "You can take mine too, Thanks!" Jean said handing her form over to Japheth

[Talia] They wouldnt just think she was a freak.....cause she didnt act like a freak...

[Fr.Wagner] "Just try make us look good on TV!" Kurt called after her.

[Japheth] Japh took the forms, "Right, after dropping these off I'm gonna do some research in the recroom if anyone needs me." Japh said halfway to the door.

[Angel] "Oooo, this is gonna be fun," Angel laughed.

[Fr.Wagner] For some reason, seeing Talia's enthusiam for the whole thing, the way she just dove into it... Exactly like he had - with the same sort of single minded bravado...

[Rahne] Rahne looked around her nervously "Well ... I'd better go an' finish packin' if we're all leavin' ..." she started to back away towards the door "Oh yeah ... Fr. Kurt?"

[Talia] And Remy would be with her! And everyone would see what a hot boyfriend she had. Oooo maybe Amder would watch.

[Fr.Wagner] He hadn't ever thought of her as "meine kinder" before, but ... It was so obvious. In more than just the way she looked.

[Fr.Wagner] Kurt jumped, hearing his name. God, he was daydreaming about calling Talia his daughter in German.

[Fr.Wagner] "Yes, Rahne," he said quickly.

[Summers] "I have to get back to Dr. McCoy - hopefully the labwork is done." He leaned over, gave Angel a kiss, and left at a brisk trot.

[Talia] She turned to Angel. "How cool is this? We're going to be on TV!!!"

[Angel] Angel kissed him in return and watched him go with a sigh. She hoped she'd made the right decision...

[Rahne] "Mr. Xaiver says tha my classwork is gonna be emailed ta me, so you jus need ta pass it onta him an' he'll send it ta me, is tha 'kay? 'Cos ... I do really like ya classes."

[Fr.Wagner] Kurt smiled. "Well, I like you in my classes," he said. "I'll miss having you. Why don't I just email them to you directly?"

[Rahne] Rahne smiled "Aye ... if ye dinnae min' sir."

[Angel] Angel went to Kurt and Rahne. "I don't wanna interrupt...but I just wanted to tell ya hey, and good luck, girlfriend," she said to Rahne. "Give Vic my best."

[Rahne] "An' ... I'll give Vic ye bes'?"

[Talia] "Wait, you're leaving?"

[Rahne] Rahne smiled at Angel "Than's man, it means alot ... ta him an' me."

[Fr.Wagner] "It's no bother Angel, we were just talking about how to get Rahne her schoolwork," Kurt said.

[Rahne] Rahne turned to Teej ... oh yeah, she'd come in late. "Err ... aye, I'm gonna go an' be a character witness in Vic's trial ... I'll be gone fer a month at least ..."

[Angel] She gave the other girl a hug. "Take care, hon."

[Talia] "Oh....wow...ok," she told her.

[Talia] "uhh...be safe.."

[Rahne] Rahne huged Angel back "Ye ta ... I'll keep ye all posted through myspace."

[Fr.Wagner] Kurt hopped off the back of the chair. He put his hand on Rahne's shoulder. "Come find me if you need to talk before you leave," he said.

[Angel] "Okay, deal," she said, pulling back and smiling.

[Rahne] Rahne looked at Teej "Aye ... I will, an' when I come back I'll be bringin' Vic home wit' me."

[Rahne] Rahne covered Kurt's hand with her own for a moment "Than's sir."

[Fr.Wagner] "You'll do great."

[Angel] I hope so, she thought. Poor Vic.... she couldn't help but to wonder if she's gone a step further a year ago if she wouldn't be in Vic's shoes.

[Talia] She was a bit uncomfortable with the turn of conversation...she didnt know about Vic.

[Fr.Wagner] Kurt took a last glance at Talia before walking up the aisle and out of the auditorium. Meine Kinder? God. What was wrong with him? He shook his head.

[Rahne] Rahne looked around "Anyway, I need ta go an' finsih packin' ... I'll see ye guys soon aye?"

[Talia] "Bye Rahne!" she waved at her. Nearly everyone had gone already.

[Fr.Wagner] If she'd known that had run through his head... Well, he certainly wouldn't have to worry about ever showing up on TV...

[Angel] "Yeah, see ya later, Rahney!" She looked at TJ.

[Angel] "So, we gonna be stars, yeah?"

[Talia] "Totally!"

[Rahne] "Take care, Slàn leat, bye." And she left the auditorium.

[JeanGrey15] "Well I'm going to go back to my room. Bye!" Jean said

[fourpawsonthefloor]
