Brody Lees had arrived a day before his case worker had told him he'd needed to be there. There was really nothing left for him to do at home, and he was happy in a small way to be away from Susan and Arlee. They hadn't really spoken to him much since the arrest...

He stopped ruminating long enough to gawk at the Mansion he'd started pulling into in his massive old beat-up truck. Holy shit, what had he signed up for? Parking in front of the door, Brody lit a cigarette and just stared at the building for a few moments, positive that any second some stodgy yankee was gonna come barreling out of the nice house and inform him there'd been some mistake.

He glanced from the address he'd been given to the door, and back and forth a few time. No, it seemed right. Brody walked towards the front door and knocked a few times, and passed the time before an answer trying to figure out if he was excited for someone to open the door, or dreading it...

"Most of the other students are in class." He pointed out. "The School is rather large, and you will not find many students about the foyer during the day. I was only there because I had left the infirmary, on me way to the library for study hall."

"Infirmary? You feelin alright?" It was a kneejerk question Brody almost immediately regretted. He'd noticed the wheelchair, obviously, and Dolemeck had mentioned the accident. Brody cleared his throat, "Sorry, I, uh, don't mean to pry or anything..."

[dolemeck]

"I am feeling much better, now." He smiled again. "I am not contagious and it is alright. You are not prying or asking me anything that has not been asked before."

He took a turn around a corner, stopping in-front of a door with a couch to the side of it.

"This is Headmistress Ramsey's office."

"This my stop?"

Brody looked at the door, and did his best not to look intimidated by a large flat piece of wood. He turned back to Dolemeck with a large smile, "Hey, thanks for the heads-up on all of this. I appreciate the quick tour."

[dolemeck]

"If you need anymore help, just let me know! It makes me feel useful about here." He continued to look cheerful. "Do not worry, Headmistress Ramsey is not that bad. She really cares about us."

[southern_heavy]

"I appreciate it, man. And anyone named 'Headmistress' doesn't sound like someone I'd normally get along with..." Brody gave another sidelong glance at the door.

[dolemeck]

"Well, she is the headmistress of the school. Her real name is Rachel Summers Ramsey, but we have to call her by her respected title of Headmistress or Mrs. Ramsey." He grinned. "You are really nervous about this, huh?"

[southern_heavy]

Brody shrugged, "This place is just one big fancy school, and...I ain't really the best in the way of students." He'd bore Dolemeck with his whole story later. Right now, Brody just wanted to find out what the whole deal with this weird place was. He turned to the door, then back to Dolemeck, "Should I just, uh...knock?"

[dolemeck]

"Just knock." He knocked on the door for Brody, then started to wheel himself off. "I will see you soon!"
