Nick has appropriated the slide as his own, because no one else would think to use it for its unintended if unquestionably superior purpose. The interplay of gravity and friction buried in the twist of the downward slope is not a particularly revolutionary undertaking but it is far more worthy of his time than any alternatives a distinctly uninteresting playground may provide.
Obviously this is not Glasgow - Glasgow is gray and full of rain, and this place is neither of those things - but Nick is still in possession of a pocket knife. He scratches studiously at the wood paneling beside the slide, chipping in his sprawling, untidy script;
mgh = (1/2)mv2
He stands back to scrutinize his completed work with a scowl, arms crossed over his chest.
[ooc: Rush is in the 10-11 range and he doesn't remember anything about Manhattan, the Rift, etc. He's also going through a difficult time in his life regarding gender and identity, so be warned.]
