The whole nuclear plant thing sounded shocking at first, but Celeste was fast to backtrack on the claim - or rather, add some detail that lowered the expectations, but did not really do anything about making her powers sound less incredible. At least in Gawain's eyes.

>>"Oh no, no, I mean, I absorbed some of the radiation from it. It probably made them worry about their computers for a second, but it didn't eliminate it or get rid of it or anything. There is some pretty heavy limits, even for me."

Yeah. Well, if someone's limit was some of a nuclear plant... Gawain was somewhat relieved that she did not get caught with that one. If anyone, criminals of authorities, found out about her powers doing that, she might not have ended up at the Mansion.

>>"I'm not that powerful. Plenty of issues with it. Thanks though! I'm excited to be here. And don't think I'm going to let you off the hook for my other question! What movie did you get trapped into?"

"Well... we're here to help with the issues." Gawain noted with a smirk, nodding back towards the Danger Room in passing as they walked on. To her question, circling back to the less cool parts of his powers... well. Gawain muttered something that sounded like Sleeping Beauty under his breath, hoping against hope she would not catch it.

"I feel like I should start capitalizing on that power..."

She smirked as she remembered her escapade into the nuclear power point. She was honestly really lucky she didn't get caught. Not to mention the whole it's a felony to be unauthorized on nuclear power plants. 'Light trespassing,' more like very serious, bad consequences trespassing.

>> "Well... we're here to help with the issues."
 
She smiled warmly and nodded, "Yep... That's why I came here. I want to be able to do more with it, maybe something more... Beneficial than just giving people radiation poisoning." It wasn't that it wasn't fun to give people radiation poisoning every now and then. It was more that she was never in the circumstances to do it to someone who deserved it - like criminals.

She arched a brow and leaned in as he muttered. Sleeping... Beauty...? "Sleeping beauty?!" She grinned, "How did you manage to fall into it? Also... Was it at the beginning or towards the middle? I feel like there was some good spots and some pretty bad spots in that one..." No wonder he didn't want to talk about it, actually. Sleeping Beauty probably wasn't the best movie to fall into. There was definitely better, more exciting movies than that. But she was a Disney fan, so... So conflicting.

>> "I feel like I should start capitalizing on that power..."

She laughed, "Hopping into movies? I sure would. It'd be a nice escape every now and then from the grime of the real world."

>>"Yep... That's why I came here. I want to be able to do more with it, maybe something more... Beneficial than just giving people radiation poisoning."

"We'll find you a training schedule, then." Gawain promised with a nod, being all business for a second as he remembered he was, after all, part of the staff in the Mansion. He would make sure Celeste got all the help she needed with honing her powers. He might or might not personally chip in with DR sessions, but for now, a schedule was the first step.

At least, until the movie walking came up again.

>>"Sleeping beauty?! How did you manage to fall into it? Also... Was it at the beginning or towards the middle? I feel like there was some good spots and some pretty bad spots in that one..."

Gawain noted that he might need to start charging people for the movie walks... and he meant it. He also briefly considered charging people for asking questions about painful experiences in the past. He would be rich by now... With a sigh, he gave in this time.

"A... friend of mine decided that if she had been Maleficent, she would have won the story. And she set out to prove it. I ended up wearing butterfly wings or some sh*t. And we traumatized a movie matinee full of children. It was an accident... but I don't think I'll ever live it down." she gave Celeste a look "I have places I can hide a body if you tell about this to anyone." Whose body, he did not say.

>> "We'll find you a training schedule, then." 

Celeste gave a little clap. Yes! That would be perfect. That excitement had her imagination go wild with ideas about the danger room - what would it simulate? Do they let you know or do they just throw it on you? So many questions... But for another time.

>> "A... friend of mine decided that if she had been Maleficent, she would have won the story. And she set out to prove it. I ended up wearing butterfly wings or some sh*t. And we traumatized a movie matinee full of children. It was an accident... but I don't think I'll ever live it down."

Oh, yikes. That was a lot more dark than she had anticipated. Probably shouldn't have pushed him on that one... "Oh, I'm so sorry. I shouldn't have pried it out of you." Friend decides to go literally full evil. Butterfly wings on him would probably be cute, though. But a movie full of kids? Super yikes... Probably lots of pissy parents. "But hey, I'm sure you looked adorable with butterfly wings."

>> "I have places I can hide a body if you tell about this to anyone."

She made a hand motion of zipping her lips and then threw the key away. His secret was safe with her. She felt like she needed to say something so they were on equal terms with... Secrets. "When my powers first manifested and I actually didn't have a lot control, I made an entire classroom full of kids sick." She shrugged, "I had to transfer to a different school. Accidents happen, it's how we learn from them that ultimately matters. Also, no one else besides the people involved know about that, so, uh, yeah, you have dirt on me now too. We can't blackmail each other." She laughed. 

>>"Oh, I'm so sorry. I shouldn't have pried it out of you. But hey, I'm sure you looked adorable with butterfly wings."

Gawain groaned and rolled his eyes. He was sure Maxine had photos (or screenshots or whatever) of that stashed away somewhere for the Apocalypse or something. It had been hanging over his head for years. Not that there was anything wrong with butterflies...

>>"When my powers first manifested and I actually didn't have a lot control, I made an entire classroom full of kids sick. I had to transfer to a different school. Accidents happen, it's how we learn from them that ultimately matters. Also, no one else besides the people involved know about that, so, uh, yeah, you have dirt on me now too. We can't blackmail each other."

"Well... that sounds like a fair deal." Gawain smirked "Although I don't know how a couple of sick kids measure up to butterfly wings..." he added with a sarcastic grin. Clearly, Celeste's secret was more important, and more serious, in the grand scheme of things. Not that he would use that to blackmail her. She was a Mansion student now, if not a resident, and everything he knew about her was confidential. Mutant kids all deserved that much.

"Alright, well... you've already seen the Mansion grounds... and you'll see the classrooms soon enough. Let me know if you have any questions, but otherwise... ta-da!..." he made a gesture "Welcome to Xavier's. Again."

Celeste chuckled at his groan and eye roll. She was expecting that reaction, but she was sure he thought there was some humor in it. Unless there wasn't, and well, then she guessed it was too late to take that back.

>> "Well... that sounds like a fair deal. Although I don't know how a couple of sick kids measure up to butterfly wings..."

She laughed and shrugged, "I mean, terrorizing a few kids. It's at least kinda similar." The kids in her class kinda deserved it though - they were being jerks to her and a bunch of other people, mainly a couple other mutants who's powers had also manifested only a short time before. Celeste kinda wondered how long it took them to sanitize that classroom - that was a lot of puke to clean up...

>> "Alright, well... you've already seen the Mansion grounds... and you'll see the classrooms soon enough. Let me know if you have any questions, but otherwise... ta-da!... Welcome to Xavier's. Again."

She smiled and nodded, "Thanks so much for your tour." She gave him a playful nudge, "Let me know if there's anywhere I can leave a review. I'll be sure to leave a good one for your touring abilities. It really was great. I can't wait to see you around! And, of course, Angua." She sighed, taking another glance over the mansion. It was going to be a good semester.
