Who: Paige Guthrie & Alex Summers
When: Thursday, August 28, 2008 - afternoon
Where: the grounds; somewhere outside
What: Paige is having a mental breakdown over the tattoo that Won't Go Away.
It wouldn't go away. No matter how many times she ripped off her skin, no matter what form she took, it wouldn't go away.
Paige was practically hysterical as she just kept trying, ripping off layer by layer. It wasn't a very pretty sight, what with all the discards. Oh, sure, those tended to disintegrate after awhile but it was still an unnerving sight. It looked like a group of snakes had all decided to molt right then and there. At the same time.
It wasn't right. The whole thing was wrong. Paige knew she should have trusted her instinct and stayed away as long as possible. But she'd given in so that she could go to school. She wasn't even sure if the college would accept mutants, especially since they now had a way to easily tell if someone was a mutant or not. It would be Civil Rights all over again; the black and whites were segregated, why not do the same to humans and mutants? Segregate the schools, segregate the drinking fountains.
The blonde let out a very un-Paige-like shriek of fury and frustration, a new layer of skin being ripped off in the process to expose something a little more acid-like. That, too, was ripped away furiously, tears welling up in her eyes as that damned tattoo showed up yet again.
"Goddamn it!"
Paige was usually not one for cursing of any sort, especially not with the Lord's Name anywhere in it.
