Raven here again with my second and probably last character, this is here is Sooraya, your character can call her Raya if necessary. She's also known as Dust. She's been in the school for two years now, though she's been gone for the last three months on a secret mission of her own, no one knows where she went or why (outside of Xavier and staff of course). She's kept a sort of mystery about her, doesn't talk very much about who she is or her past and rubbed many people the wrong way when she first showed up due to her religious outlook and feelings of paranoia when people would approach or even talk to her. Though, I'd like it if she could at least have a two good friends that she could confine in.

She doesn't like to be around groups of boys, and isn't too comfortable with one on one time with another guy either -- but if you had been part of a slave trade, you probably wouldn't either, not that any of the students know about that. She has, since this year at least, tried to tone herself down and practice her own need for respect and judgment issues...especially after finally getting a chance to talk to her mom, she understands now what her mothers hopes for her, but is having a whole other conflict about that internally as well.

ANYWAY! Sooraya probably came home some time in the last week, no one in the school has seen her without her burqa and black garb, except her roommate obviously.

Any plots you guys want with her, or relationships wise, lemme know!

Bobby is probably horribly awkward and all up in her personal space, though never going so far as to touch her or anything. He doesn't quite understand her religion and so he thinks he'll go to hell if he does. Likely never has anything to really say to her, but that doesn't stop him from trying.

XD I don't know why your comment made me laugh so much, probably the vision of him up in her space lol. She would be horribly awkward around him too, but more in a fidgety 'please get away from me' type of way, especially if he got her when no adults or other females were around. >.> She'd freak and probably go sandy.

Aw, poor girl. And the horrible thing is that Bobby probably filed that information away for the future and does it on occasion to test her limits. He doesn't dislike her at all, but it's rather interesting to him.

Sooraya! <3 I now have to go read more New X-Men.

Remy's probably just as awkward with her as Bobby. He doesn't understand why there's a woman around who hasn't swooned over him. XD He has sweet-talked her before, though, I'm sure.

Nessie probably has talked to her, but I don't see them as having had much interaction.

JAY. Jay hasn't had a chance to really meet her yet, but when he does, I think he'll really like her, mostly because he will very much respect her religion - and might find himself remembering his own religion better because of it, he's lost sight since becoming suicidal, so the reminder should help. He will think very highly of her once they meet, I think. (I mean, I didn't just read Childhood's End stuff and get all weepy about the exchanges between Jay and Sooraya... *shifty eyes*)

Jay & Sooraya = major ♥ for sure, I just didn't want to mod him or assume you'd read that issue -shifty eyes- but yeah, Jay I believe will be the only male she'd feel comfortable around, just because he would respect her and the fact that she could be comforting to him -- which I think would help her open up a lot more and understand more of what her mother (at least in this 'universe' since I sort of made up my own things as I went too) was trying to tell her at their last meeting. :D so for sure.

Anything you want, whenever you want it between them would be fab.

Remy = weirdo who needs to stay away from her (which I never thought I'd every say about Remy since he is full of win) but yeah, if he did sweet talk her once, she'd never give him room to do it again and start lumping him in with the 'men' of sexual trade, which isn't good. &&& Nessie, can be whatever you want ^^.

Yay! I haven't read all of the issues in between, but I've read a lot. And now I'm going to go read more! D'awwwuh. Jay will start to feel very comfortable around her, and between her talking to him, Jean's words, and being with Paige, I think he will definitely start to pull himself back up. And will be very, very thankful toward Sooraya and will go out of his way to spend time with her, wanting to make her feel just as comfortable. I keep awwuhing over here, which makes it hard to make a coherent comment. XD

Maybe they could have a talk sometime soon where they meet? Jay needs one last good angst before his brother man handles him.

Haha, Remy will be confused why she's so disgusted with him. Which will only make him try harder to figure her out. He will makes things super awkward between them.

I'll be honest, I don't remember much of what I have read between them...what I remember is Sooraya being very very touched and saddened when Jay died, since his mom told her that he had found her very beautiful even though he'd never actually seen her. So I keep aww'ing over here too lol.

If you'd like I can do a post with her in a few moments for us to start with?

She will just leave Remy behind in her dust form, he is creepy. lol

Oh! Oh! I also remember her at first thinking of him as an angel...or a celestial being instead of as a mutant too because of his wings. Physical mutations are hard on her and seem to dive into that religious aspect of her as well. Which would only make him all that more special to her, like a silent test of Allah to help mend his broken wings.....so to speak.

I remember reading the Wiki article of Jay's that stated how the writers planned to have him convert for her. <3 I need to read that now, I haven't seen that scene (I didn't read much further past his death, couldn't handle it XD).

I would love one!

And that's just beautiful, omigosh! He will definitely need someone to help mend his heart and his wings. <3 <3

Jay is all :D and Remy's all D: with this. XD

I did know he was going to convert! Now I have to try and play her uber well for him! XD ♥♥♥ too cute!

Remy'll get over it and needs to go bond with Rogue lol. The post is up, I know it seems odd and out of the way, if you want something different let me know and I'll fix it...but it'll have to be fixed tomorrow because I have to go to bed now! I have to be up in 4 hours for work, yay! -dies-

Stop making me awwwuh I have to go to bed too! XD

Remy does need to focus on his girl better. There's just too much Cajun loving for one woman!

I like it! I went with it and rambled a little. XD Ah, Jay. The post is there for you for when you get a chance. Yuuuuck, work! I have a bit more time before I have to do the same. Good luck!

I kind of want to say Piotr'd be wary of her because of stories he heard from veterens of the Russian invasion of Afganastan but really who are we fooling? Piotr's a big russian teddy bear made of metal. Or possibley one of those dolls containing smaller Piotrs.

Doug would respect her culture and might ask her questions about it if they ever got to talking, he's a curious one and I think would like putting the language in its cultural context.

If he is weary of her, she shall be weary of him, after last year she no longer goes out of her way to make others comfortable with who she is. But if Doug wants to learn her language, she'd have no problem with that. :D

He won't be weary. That was just my lead in to saying he'd be nice. Gotta find new ways to say "they'd be civil" after all.

I've only got boys! XD Kurt would of course be friendly and respectful towards her and her faith. I think out of all my characters the two of them would get along best :)

Kurt works for me! She'd probably fear him though, because she's so religious she'd probably had to get over his mutation and remind herself it is a mutation and he is not devil spawn come to eat her face. Though I'm sure he'd still make sure jump, but she's getting over it!

Yay! Dust! That's awesome. =D


Here's my character run-down:

Tabby: Is uncomfortable and awkward around Sooraya because she's just so different. But in a normal...non-mutie way. She doesn't understand anything about her from her hair to her beliefs, and certainly doesn't like how she's so mysterious and close mouthed. So she probably gives her a hard time and lashes out now and then, in a sort of passive bully sort of way. Makes comments and probably makes fun of her.

Beast: Is tolerant and accepting of all of his students and wants the best for them. He's there to listen to any problems that Sooraya may have and offer advice, but if she makes it clear that she wants to keep to herself he'll probably just observe serenely. Lending a hand now and then as a teacher.

Tyrone: Is a quiet boy with a stuttering problem. So he doesn't talk much. He keeps to himself and keeps a polite distance from the rest of the students, including Sooraya. He slips out weekends to do something in the city... He's reserved and spends most of his time in quiet reflection.

If Tabby pushes too much she will say something like; "I'm going to remove the flesh from your face." & stare very intently at her while saying it...since the only thing Tabby could see would be her eyes. & she wouldn't be joking since war is in her background and Tabby is just another slut ignorant American as far as Sooraya is concerned--though, she'd respect Tabby if Tabby just respected her! This is gonna be fun! XD

Beast is awesome, but due to physical mutation and being an older male, someone she'd probably not want to be around, like Kurt! It's just something she's gotta get over, because she knows she's being silly and over paranoid about it.

Cloak, I'm still so happy you picked him up, will probably be ignored unless he makes himself known.

Woot ^^

Jean probably likes her just fine and Amara may find solace in her presence because she is from another place too.

I just left it that a telepath helped bring Sooraya around when she first came around and stayed in dust form, that could have been Jean (it was in the comics) if you'd like--which means Jean would be the only person who'd be able to have telepathic links with her in her dust form, if you want! ^^ Jean! She's someone to look up to too.
