No Good Deed

Who: Ororo OT Logan
What: A quick phone call
When: Late Monday night
Rating: Never know with Logan in a thread


It seemed lately as if the old adage of, "It doesn't rain, but it pours," had never been truer. They had seen weeks of peace and quiet before chaos erupted. Then it went back to normal before it felt as though the world had begun to spin backward again. Right now was not the time of peace Ororo wanted almost desperately. She felt as though she hadn't had a proper night of sleep since the beginning of January and it didn't appear as though anything would be changing any time soon.

It was time to get things back in order, and to do that, she needed all hands on deck. For this reason and this reason alone, Ororo swallowed her pride and picked up her phone. She scrolled through her contacts before finding Logan's number and dialing to listen to it ring.

Who: Scott and Emma
What: Therapy Session 2
When: 10am on the second day of Scott's return
Where: Underground Medical Bay
Rating: PG for starts.

( In my mind... )

Who: Kitty OTA
What: Doing some chores on a free afternoon
When: Around 1pm
Where: Stables
Rating: G to start

It wasn't exactly hot out, but Kitty was enjoying the warming trend in the weather and decided to take advantage of it as much as she could. Classes and other distractions had been keeping her busy for so long that it was a startling realization for Kitty when she figured out her last trip to the stables had been before the attack. There were plenty of other people who went down there every day as part of their routine so it wasn't as if the horses were being ignored or had been abandoned. But it had once been part of Kitty's routine as well. Being out of commission for so long after the attack not only kept her from dancing for awhile, but it took away her morning run and her desire to walk across campus. ( This needed to change now. )

Who: Scott and Emma
What: Therapy Session
When: 9pm on the night he arrives.
Where: Mansion
Rating: Eh, I would say pg-13, but with Emma it could be R. Never know.
( your appointment has arrived. )

Who: Rogue
What: There's an incident after work. It doesn't end well.
When: 1 am
Where: Out back behind the bar she works at.
Rating: PG

It had been a few days since Logan had come to stay with Rogue. So far things were going well. Her control slipped every now and then but for the most part, Logan being around was the only thing helping her have a good handle on her own senses. As he promised, he was helping her with meditation skills, ways to gain more mental strength and awareness. She hadn't felt so at ease in such a long time, despite the constant worry she'd get lost in all the voices in her head. Logan had always had that effect on her, though. it was just different now that she was no longer a teenager with a crush. Those feelings were still there of course. They probably would always be. ( He had been her hero more than once and that went a long way with a girl. )

Who: Cyclops, OTA
What: Scott returns to the School after 7 years without his memories.
When: Late Evening
Where: Remains of Xavier Mansion.
Rating: Shouldn't be higher than PG-13. Depends on who jumps in.

( Home may not be Home anymore )

Who: X-23 OT Cyclops
What: Happening to see each other at a gas station.
When: 10 pm
Where: I just said a gas station, didn't I?
Rating: R - I can't control this girl's mouth or violent streak.

A month later, and she was finally heading back to the mansion. Upon leaving she was Laura, the girl who had a better sense of who she was and an anticipation of what being at Xavier's could actually mean for her. She had a sense of purpose, a drive, and a will to return at some point with the hope that something close to a normal life could be hers. A month later and Laura was once again replaced with X-23. She wasn't a girl anymore, but an experiment, a weapon, a seasoned killer. It was what she knew, what was comfortable, what was familiar. And being in the situations she'd faced in the past month, the familiar was easier than facing the uncertainties.
( She knew it, she just didn't care. )

Miss Dane:

Please report to my office as soon as possible. I'd like to hear an explanation for that untoward disturbance in the local E-M fields.

-- Erik Lehnsherr

Who: X-23
What: Delivering a message.
When: Wednesday night
Where: A nondescript "shop" in center Westchester.
Rating: R for violence and gore

Notes:This will make the news by tomorrow (Thursday) morning and will definitely cause tension among the muties and the meat sacks.

( Flash wasn't something she usually went for, but a point needed to be made )

Who: June OT Kitty (Theresa?)
What: Late night chat
When: Thursday night, almost midnight
Where: Kitty and Terry's room
Rating: PG?

June had a nightmare. She was having them almost every night since they'd come back to the mansion. Most of the time it was about the way her room had exploded that night and her world got turned upside down. Tonight the nightmare was about her father. He was coming after her to take her away from the school. Away from everything that made her feel safe. Away from Kitty.

She woke up in a cold sweat, the feeling of terror so real that she couldn't help but sob as she lay there in the dark. It took her awhile to tell herself that it had just been a dream and that she was safe and still at the school. She was calm enough to go back to sleep but didn't want to. So on very quiet feet she left her room and walked down the hallway to the RA room that Terry and Kitty shared. She knocked quietly and worried her bottom lip as she waited.

Who: Every Female at the School
Where: The bedrooms of Every Female at the School
When: Feb. 9; just after dinner and through the time everyone heads to bed
What: A Romantic Gesture


When the female population head for bed for the evening, each and every single one of them will find a slim, crystal vase with a single long-stem rose in it. Most of the roses for the students are Yellow (signifying friendship). Most of the roses for the staff and adult women are Orange (signifying passion and desire). Rogue will find a blue Rose next to her bed (signifying being desired, but knowing that such a thing is unattainable).

There is no accompanying note or other evidence of who might have left these. The vases are very delicate and expensive-looking. Certain women with very deft noses will realize that whomever left this bathed themselves in rose perfume for the mission to throw off their scent.

Who: Jamie OTA
What: Hanging out with the horses
When: Tuesday, mid-morning
Where: The stables
Rating: TBD

Jamie was tired of people. He'd spent so many years of his life working alone that being around a bunch of them all the time was starting to wear his nerves rather thin. Add to that his constant inability to control his dupes, when they came and where they went, it was a recipe for a very short-tempered man. He knew the mansion was almost to the point where people could move back in again and there would be more room to breathe, but it wasn't soon enough. He needed to get out of the secondary facilities and just get away from the constant chatter of a dozen or more people.

( It was warm out for a winter day in February )

Who: Gambit, Polaris, OTA
Where: Secondary Facilities
When: Lunch Time
What: Remy makes gumbo. You all have been warned.

( If I had a type, then baby, it'd be you. )

Who: Ororo, Wade, Hank, and Kitty-on-a-slab
What: Enlightening conversation, no doubt
When: BACKDATED to directly following the attack
Where: Medlabs in the basement of the mansion

( There were one of two places that Hank would be following the events of the night: the basement here at the mansion or at the secondary facilities )

Who: Jamie OTA
What: Jamie arrives at the mansion. Or what used to be the mansion.
When: Friday, Jan. 21, later afternoon
Where: Uh...the mansion?
Rating: TBD work-safe morethanlikely

( When some kids got overly excited, stressed, or otherwise emotional, they pooped themselves. Jamie...duped himself )
