Common Room: Short and Sweet

Up until recently maintained as a museum, the childhood home of the Braddock family has been pressed into service as additional housing and classroom space for the Institute. Additionally, the increased demands have led to the main ballroom being converted into a cafeteria for both the Institute and those University students on a meal plan. Student reactions have been mixed, and reports of paranormal activity are as of yet unsubstantiated.

"Oh, hey, you found us!" Murphy says, clapping her hands, "Yay!"

"Woo," Paul said, as excited as Jen. "So... what do you need me to do? I don't think I can do a van, just saying."

"Yeah, I can drive the van back," Murphy says. "No problem."

"Oh, yeah, I can do a couch."

"...Couldn't you have just put it in the van, though?"

Jennifer opens the back hatch to reveal the stacks of books.

"Besides, we need your help to get it into the room anyway."

"Okay, you have a point," he said. Could have just brought me along and saved me the hopping and trying to find you... "All right, you get that side, I'll get this side," he said He looked around, then threw the portal up in the rear door of the van. Made it look more natural that way to draw fewer stares.

Jennifer walks over to help Murphy on her side to lift the couch, pushing it through the portal and into the secret room.

"That is the most convenient thing." she says, grabbing the box and dragging it over to the portal as well.

Murphy carries a box in as well.

"Secret tunnel!" She sings, "Secret tunnel!"

"Hey Murph, toss me the keys. I'll drive the van back to minimize the amount of pedestrians we'll have to scrape off the windshield later."

She tosses the keys back to Jennifer.

Jennifer tries to catch the keys but end sup with her hand nowhere near the keys and they go flying past her head. "I'll see you guys later..." she says awkwardly and hurries off to pick up the keys and get into the driver's seat.
