Tips for Living at the X-Mansion
Keep your valuables in a duffel bag. The likelihood of the mansion blowing up or becoming ground zero for a Juggernaut vs Colossus fight is not as high as people joke, but it’s not zero either. I would suggest having anything of high sentimental value, your ids and/or passport, some cash, and like, a granola bar packed away.
Bedrooms are divided into singles, doubles, and four to a room. Priority for singles is given to university students (18+) and kids with more volatile mutations. If you want a more social experience, go with the four to a room; if you want something a little quieter, go for a double.
Yes, we do have Taco Tuesday and yes, it really is that good. Grab your spot in line early!
Classes get interrupted and end abruptly all the time. Never during a test though. So study, because unless the mansion is physically blowing up you will still have to take that test.
Tennis shoes, long sleeves, and pants are your friends in the Danger Room (unless of course you have a physical mutation that changes your skin in some way- or your own super suit). That floor is hard, and you will rub off skin when Wolverine flings you around like a hockey puck.
If you see a button or a lever oh my god do not mess with it just leave it be please
No one sleeps in this goddamn house. Between trauma, mutations that prevent sleep, and teenagers being teenagers, at least half the school is up at any point during the night. The small kitchen has great snacks (check the top cupboard). There’s usually someone doing a marathon of some kind in the common room.
There are about a dozen secret passageways, some more secret than others. At least two lead into the town nearby, you know if hypothetically you wanted to sneak out and get some snacks or catch a movie or something. Try not to do it when Professor X is awake/on campus though.
It gets cold in the winter. You would think the heating system would be better considering the high tech x-men super lab in the basement but nooooo. So make sure you have some sweaters and blankets handy. And if you’re a pyrokinetic, please don’t try to start a fire in your room sans fireplace…trust me you are not the first person to think of that and it never ends well.
We do have a prom, but it is prim villain takeover time so you’re better off taking a trip down to NYC instead.
