Did Keyleth look a little more awkward than usual, standing out here with just her backpack and her druid's staff while she waited? Probably, because she wasn't wearing her antler headdress, and that gave a boost to her already middling charisma looked a little bit weird for her.

But hey! A whole week she got to spend in a totally new place! So that was exciting, right?

Prompto was feeling a little out of sorts that morning; he'd stayed up too late with his games, he'd eaten almost an entire jar of peanut butter, and he'd also finally caved in to see what Nina had texted him, and that did not help matters very much, but, it was time for the school trip and he wasn't about to be all morose and irritated for the school trip.

Not that anyone could tell, anyway, hopefully, bouncing a little on his toes in his usual anxious way, just ready to get going and find some good old distraction in a new, probably gorgeous place. Bring it onnnnnn!

What was that? Spending two weeks off island only to go off island for another week?

On vacation this time?

Oh yeah, Nina was super down for that!

"And," she was saying to Foomy, "this will be a grand adventure because I didn't have time to read up on where we're going!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Kennedy hadn't been planning to go on this trip, originally, but Willow had ended up having to accompany one of Faith's squads on a rescue mission to a demon dimension, which meant Kennedy was going to be left to her own devices for a week.

So, rather than sulk about her brand-new fiancée being off-world on a mission without her (and she got it, they needed to keep it a small group and she wasn't totally tuned in to the situation anyway), here she was, ready to play chaperone for the week.

One large duffel bag and one very expensive-looking rolling suitcase were at her feet; she'd learned to dial her trip-packing down to a reasonable level since she'd been a student here.

No, really, this was a reasonable level, if you had ever seen how much stuff she used to bring on these trips as a teenager.

Tisarwat wasn't exactly sure what to expect or what to bring or any of that sort of thing for this trip, and she'd never really gotten around to asking. She just hoped that the two large travel bags she'd brought with her would suffice. Sure, it was only a week, but when you didn't know what to expect, you wanted to be prepared, and she wasn't about to leave her tea stuff behind, either. Not to mention at least a week's worth of gloves, and for various situations, even if she told herself that literally no one would know if she was even wearing the wrong gloves for the wrong event, but it mattered to her.

She was trying not to be nervous, especially since it wasn't like there was anything to be nervous about.

Del wasn't nervous, in part because she was still very fishies and in part because this would be a whole new adventure. She swam around in the air while they waited. Probably she would need to be people-shaped but for now they were waiting and she could be fishies. So she was.

No one should be surprised to find out that Wayne had packed very efficiently and simply, with just one suitcase, and you just knew that suitcase was full of flannel shirts. Yes, even if they were going to Ecuador.

That suitcase was settled at his feet as he hung back a bit while they waited, getting the most out of his dart because fuck all knew what the smoking situation was going to be, reading through one of those language books and going over a few helpful phrases in Spanish, both in his head and, on occassion, out loud.

And his Spanish pronounciation was just as stilted and terrible as his French, but he didn't seem too bothered by it. Especially on account of the fact that some people might even say the same thinga bout how he pronounced his English, too.
