Okay, the free phone is nifty - it's way better than the one I have - but I don't really think it's an adequate tradeoff for being kidnapped. And brought to... is this Earth with an added moon and some kind of parallel reality or another planet or what?

Is anybody reading this? I mean obviously someone must be if there's a communications network. Hello?

	Rogue! Did you get nabbed too? Where are we? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	~~Oh thank~~ Yeah, looks like. From what I've been told we're on some other planet and there's no way out. I only just showed up myself. [Kitty] Magneto is here. He's younger, like the Professor, but it's definitely him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Being stuck here kind of sucks, I guess, but another planet! I am having geek overload, I'm probably going to just fall into the sewer or something from sheer excitement. [Rogue] Wait, he what? Who thought it was a good idea to bring a megalomaniac to another planet? How are you sure it's him if he's not old? And how is the Professor not old? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Considering everything going on back home, I think I might not mind this place so much once I get settled in. And try not to fall into the sewers. Something tells me those probably aren't any different than the ones back home.

[Kitty]
I guess the guy running this place - Asaph, or something - thought he'd be a great addition. And I know because I still have his memories floating around inside. I can just... tell, I guess. It's hard to explain ~~and not something I really want to think about~~.

I guess folks are here from different times? That's what this said, anyway.

	What do you mean, everything? I thought stuff had finally calmed down for a while after Stryker. [Rogue] Wow. That was like a lot of information. Do you believe it all? I don't know if I believe it. Are you worried? I mean, if he's from that far back he hasn't come near you yet - we weren't even born yet. Should I practice my bodyguard skills? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Calmed down? No. Not even close.

Wait. Time differences. What was going on at the school, before you showed up here?

[Kitty]
I don't know. Most of it seems to pan out but I'm not sure how much of the 'fictional is reality' stuff I'm buying. Part of me is wondering if this isn't just the work of some really powerful mutant.

~~If he gets anywhere near me, the gloves are coming off.~~ Don't worry about me. I'll be fine. I don't serve any purpose to him here. Besides, we shouldn't let him ruin our good time here, right? This could be a really good thing, being away from everything back home for a while.

Um. I was having trouble with organic chem? Piotr had just destroyed the table in the kitchen by accident for like the fifth time. And everyone was talking about this cure that might or might not be real... why? What about you?

[Rogue]
Oh my god, I want to see someone doing magic. I wonder if they have flying broomsticks?

No, we shouldn't. Although I don't really want to have to get a job. And I bet whatever school they have here sucks.

Um. Rogue? Are the Professor and Magneto flirting? Tell me I'm not crazy. Because it seriously looks like that.

Because I think I'm either from further along than you or we're not from exactly the same place or something. There was a lot more than just that going on, from where I'm standing. Maybe we should talk about it in person, though.

[Kitty]
If they do, I want to go flying. That would be pretty sweet.

Any school compared to ours is going to suck, though. You can't beat the best. And I don't even know what I'd be qualified for on the job front. I never had one before.

... I think so. I think they are actually flirting.

This is just creepy, Kitty. Really, really, weird and creepy.

Yeah, we should probably talk about it. And I can give you an air hug.

[Rogue]
Right? Magic! How is that not super awesome?

You're right. Maybe I can at least hack into their systems and get enrolled at a college or something if they have one.

It would almost be sweet if it wasn't so weird. Oh my god, do you think they were together and when they broke up Magneto went evil from rage?

	It's not Earth, though that hardly rules out a parallel reality. I'm not sure what the planet is called, but it's located in Alpha Carinae, the Canopus system. The city is called Colligo, apparently. Charles Xavier. It's very nice to meet you. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Another planet! That is so cool! ...Professor? But you're all young! And not bald! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bardcore 2011-06-20 12:30 am UTC (link)
	I'm glad that someone agrees. Bald? Well...that's terribly unfortunate. But I assure you I'm the exact age I'm meant to be for the time I come from. So, what is it you can do, Katherine? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

How could you not? I mean, the kidnapping part blows. But interstellar travel! And a planet that supports life! That's completely awesome.

Well. You're a lot older from where I come from. A lot of men go bald. My dad's going bald. So.

If you're the Professor you should know already, shouldn't you? Or are you trying not to read my thoughts because it's impolite? And nobody calls me Katherine, it's Kitty.

	bardcore 2011-06-20 03:49 am UTC (link)
	Exactly. I find it all terribly fascinating. Strangely, not many feel the same. I suppose it's not so bad. I do my best not to read people's thoughts without their permission. And my apologies, Kitty. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Well, I guess if you're not the kind of nerd who finds space interesting I can see how it would be mostly depressing. Or if you have something more exciting to go back to than combat training and a quiz on Hawthorne.

And you're not bald now! So. Yeah. Maybe you can find a way to stop it from happening? I mean, Scott used to say you were bald because we all made you tear your hair out, but he might have been kidding.

It's okay. I phase - everything's mostly empty space at the submolecular level, so I just sort of shift my atoms slightly, which means I can walk through walls. And other stuff, obviously.

	I know you've already gotten the rundown but I just wanted to say welcome to Colligo. My name's Molly and if there's anything you'd like to know, I've been here for a while now and will do my best to answer. ~~And now I'm going to go freak out in a corner because it isn't every day that a girl gets to meet one of their childhood heroes.~~ (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Thanks, Molly! I'm too geeked out at the moment to be freaked or anything. Two moons! (Reply to this) (Parent)

	What is? Being here? Or something else? Hi. I'm Kitty. Who are you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	dream_bigger 2011-06-20 07:39 pm UTC (link)
	I'm Eames. And as you've no doubt worked out, you're a dead ringer for Ariadne. ~~And Juno. Should I say about Juno?~~ That's the "something else". A number of people in this place have doppelgangers. I have one myself and ~~Oh, fuck it~~ you have two, sweetheart. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	passingthrough 2011-06-20 10:34 pm UTC (link)
	Two? Does that make us triplegangers? Dreifachgangers, I guess? Awesome. Nice to meet you, Eames. Is that a first or a last name? Who's your doppelganger? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	dream_bigger 2011-06-21 05:52 am UTC (link)
	Last name. And my twin is Huck Finn. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Don't you start. Hi, kid. I'm Ariadne. I hope someone explained doppelgangers to you already. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I would NEVER start, love. Much. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	But it's the only face I have right now! (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Wow. I mean, it was in that introductory post thing, but - this is freaky. You're older than me, right? Did you look more like I do now when you were in high school? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	labyrinthine 2011-06-20 10:42 pm UTC (link)
	I'm definitely not in high school anymore. And yeah, I did, but with curlier hair. Juno looks more like you - she's the other one with our face. (Reply to this) (Parent)
