[Hey, it's Ryan, sitting on a park bench being harassed by ducks. Occasionally he throws some food at them to get some room.]

Hi. I'm Ryan Choi. [The tiniest of hesitations, because it's still weird—] The Atom. I have a few questions ( Read more... )

One of the science types can probably help you out there.

Are you actually feeding the ducks chicken?

Hopefully. Though I've never done anything... industrial, I guess the word is. Just teaching.

I think that would violate some Geneva conventions! Nah, just rice. But I'm sure they'd eat it.

Lot of teachers brought here, it seems. Hell, a lot more superhero teachers than I would expect.

Well, you want to change the world, there are only so many vocations to try.

Though that's not really why I got into teaching or superheroing. It's why I'm staying, though.

Hi, Ryan. [A pause- mostly just trying not to lol at his duck related mishaps.] Feeling better?

Hi. Sure. [Obligatory polite answer. He's not really, but whatever, right?] Just gotta keep afloat.

I know I should've gone with Italian, but... so morbidly curious...

It may be something of a step down from university, but the Xavier Institute is a school here run by imPorts. None of us have our credentials handy, but we were all experts in our fields at home.

Perhaps we may have an opportunity for you, as well.

That hardly sounds like a step down. Especially considering Ivy University, no offense, Ivy Town.

What's the general age group? Not that I don't love college students, but I've been wondering if younger people are perhaps slightly less... uh, jaded, about school, at least.

Generally high school and younger, really. We have a rather varied student base.

About how big is the student body?

I don't know, I've always liked crab rangoon. But I'm a self-admitted junk food junkie, so that's probably not much of an endorsement.

There are a few places hiring imPorts with science backgrounds if you look around. I'm starting work at a think tank called Global Dynamics next week, and Dr. McCoy's already mentioned the Institute.
