Piotr let out a soft sigh he hadn't known he was holding, shifting some of the books he'd laid down in a corner. Honestly, this time of the year was so much more frantic; everyone was running around, cramming, getting the last bit of knowledge in, finally picking up those damn books in the bookstore the professor's been telling you to get for months--oh, whoops. Even Piotr was a little on edge. But it was kind of nice, seeing everyone work together to reach a common goal. Piotr wasn't oblivious - he knew they were all just trying to get to next week, and then, they'd be surprised about the dance that came after. He couldn't blame them. Throwing a party to appreciate the hard work the students had done was a smart move. Especially since they definitely had worked hard.
A few more students had made their way to the university for him to keep an eye on; Professor Xavier had asked him if he minded, and Piotr was only happy to oblige. Again, he loved seeing new mutants find themselves. He might have preferred it to be at Professor Xavier's, instead of in this place, but Piotr wouldn't actually complain. It was nice, being able to assist them, to be here when they requested him. That was why he was pretty busy; making sure they didn't need anything else, that they weren't driving James wild with their pranks (Jubilee, Molly), or worse, driving him wild with their behavior (Kit). So to be here, in the common area with a bunch of books instead of having to bail one of the formerly mentioned out of trouble, was in itself a break for him. Even if he were tutoring.
Plus, it helped that it was Kitty. Although she loved to get in on the action when Jubilee and Molly would pull a fast one, here she was, willing to learn. It was kind of relieving that she and a few of the newer mutants around weren't immediately gunning for trouble. Kitty hadn't specified what exactly she'd wanted to study, but for her, he didn't mind carving out some time. She kind of saved him from having to deal with...literally anything else, so Piotr was a little grateful. He turned to the brunette with a smile once she'd arrived. Piotr hadn't had much time to actually play catch up with the freshman mutants, so he took one on one times like these to ask.
"It's good to see you, Katherine. How are your classes treating you?"

Okay. Ginny could definitely get used to this university thing.
It wasn't much different than the lessons she already had. The difference - the better, most relaxing part of it - was the fact that she wasn't alone, or just with her siblings. In every class, she had friends. People who weren't the same as her, weren't competing with her...okay yes, they were competing for better grades, but it didn't feel the same as the way her mother taught her lessons. These classes were like training with Mercy. It just felt easier, and she could be herself. She even got along with her roommate, Skye. Ginny enjoyed her perspective on the whole university thing as well. It helped her relax a bit. Plus, she didn't have to come up with an answer to everything, because there were others who would fill in. The anxiety she'd felt at the beginning of the year to be the best had ebbed away with every passing day, and now she could say she didn't feel it, anymore.
The anxiety she felt now? Now that was the worst.
Ginny was doing well in her classes. There was no debate about that. So why did she find herself filled with dread at the idea of midterms? Ginny couldn't wrap her head around why all of this bothered her so much, but she'd heard whispers about some sort of event happening afterwards to celebrate being done with the exams. When she'd asked about it in a Student Activities meeting, the'dy told her it was based on Halloween. That perked her up a bit, helped her stuff down her nerves. She'd seen a few films based on the activity and she was certain it wasn't based on one of the R-rated, Michael Myers movies she'd seen. Something more like Halloweentown probably fit the mood more. Or one of the Goosebumps episodes she liked to watch with Mercy.
Ginny focused on the idea of the party, as she stared up at the ceiling in her room. She had no idea what to wear, but for some reason, she felt compelled to include some element of green in her outfit. Ginny's fingers absentmindedly traced the silver chain around her neck. Okay, now she had two things to complete before the day ended. First, she needed to get out of this room, stay out of the library today, and get a little "fresh" air. Maybe ask around to see what other people in the club were thinking of being so she wouldn't copy any of their ideas. The second?
Her fingers stopped tracing her chain. That was a secret. But she'd get it done, she decided as she got out of bed and got dressed. She fixed her hair with a smile, leaving out of her room after grabbing her backpack and checking if she had what she needed. She'd see if anyone she knew were around. Maybe she'd study with someone else, which would be refreshing. It would help her focus on something else to continue to feel less nervous.
