Re: quicklog: domino/jean at the mansion
I don't know about that. There were a couple of teachers here, but they vanished as soon as Wanda and I moved in. I didn't know them. [Jean had thought it was weird, too. Nothing felt real, but there was no way to wake up.] There is probably some force that keeps someone here to take care of the students. [It was some weird nightmare, the mansion so empty. She'd have to use cerebro to bring people back. To fill the halls with life once again.
Jean laughed and set the pocketknife down on the table in front of Domino, along with her cork.] All you had to do was ask. It happens more often than people think. Ask Storm about it if she ever shows up. When Kitty first came to the school, I thought I was going to become an alcoholic. [The Ariel/Sprite/etcetera phase was the worst. Charles was the one that had the patience with her. And Ororo. Jean tried, but sometimes...]
[She took a swing from the bottle. The wine probably needed to breathe, but it wasn't here for tasting perfect. It was to dull the inevitable news that was coming. Best to get it over with.] So what happened with Charles?
