Rooms

Who: Gwen Dailey, Kyle West, and eventually Evie Sablier
Where: X-Mansion
When: Oh you know.
What: First chit chatting with the two grown ups, then Evie and Gwen will go talk about other things.
Warnings: None that I can think of.

[Kyle had just gotten Sadie settled, in yet another new house, in yet another new place - and the monster was taking it in stride. Surprisingly better than even Kyle. In Kyle's mind a mansion full of mutants wasn't exactly the stable and calm home life he'd argued he could provide during custody hearings while she was a baby - it would do the trick for now, and the kid was crazy adaptable and he knew without a shadow of a doubt that there was nothing he wouldn't do to keep her safe. And now he could levitate metal. So that was just an added bonus.

With the kid in bed and his own mind calming down just a bit after the recent events at least he was feeling a little safer for the time being. He started down the hall to Gwen's weirdo command central and knocked twice before letting himself in. She was the one stop shop for all things mutant it seemed, and one of these days the Professor X jokes would stop.] Hey professor, got a minute to look away from the computer screens and check out my new magic trick? [That day was not today. And Kyle was levitating a pen. Of course he was.]

[She had taken a few days to get settled into the mansion. It was just about exactly as she remembered. And she did love the fact that those who had been affected by genetic mutations had come here for sanctuary. After all, that was it's original purpose when the Professor had opened the doors to his school. She moved down the halls, heading to the kitchen to get something to drink and maybe a little something to eat. Night was falling and she was enjoying the feel of the cooler weather.

But she was hoping that those here would be willing to accept her help. At least the ones who wanted/needed it. She knew they didn't trust her. She couldn't blame them. She wouldn't trust a newcomer either. But she had made the offer to help and train those that wanted it. All she could do now was wait for someone to accept her offer.

She began wondering though if those here had discovered the subbasement. It was something she'd need to ask about and soon. After all, the Danger Room provided a great and (relatively) safe place for a new mutant to learn how to control their powers. Arriving at the kitchen, she moved to the refrigerator and began putting a simple cold cut sandwich together. Turning her head, she caught sight of a plant needing some watering and she smiled, lifting a hand. Her eyes grew white and a small cloud appeared over the plant and rained gently on the soil. When she felt the plant had had enough water she lowered her hand, letting the cloud vanish back to the air and she returned to getting herself her sandwich.]

I can't be here. I have a wife and a daughter and this isn't where I'm supposed to be. So I can't be here.

I just really need to find my wife.

[Locked to Bruce B]
What do we know about this Ra's fellow?

[Locked to Pepper P]
Tea, Pepper?

[All as 'Red'. and in firebrick.]

[Locked to J. Bly]

Why are all the doors in my house open?

[locked to brielle m.]

We need to talk.

[Midway through his conversation with Brielle.]

[text to wren h.]

This is bullshit.

[Locked to Tony S]
What can you tell me about him?

[Private to Luke and Wren]

Thank you for taking Delilah for this long. Will take her back now.

[locked to wren h. during this.]

He truly hates me. Are you satisfied now?

Brielle awoke in the Vega with no idea how she'd gotten there. Smearing the dust of sleep from the corners of her eyes, she looked around the small room with a rising sense of panic, something that was a familiar houseguest in her crippled heart. There was a glass of water on the bedside table, and Brielle gulped it down, wondering at the taste of ash that clung to her tongue and the dried blood that was embedded beneath her nails.

The room was furnished by things from another time, and the idea of where she might be at least put some of her worries at ease as she slipped from the bed in a dress that she did not recognize as belonging to her. There was a hooded jacket and a pair of jeans hanging on the hook behind the bedroom door, which reassured Brielle that she had come here and changed. She simply must have been so exhausted that she didn't remember it now. Things had been strange over the last couple of weeks, and this was not the first time that she'd woken up in a strange place with no idea how she'd gotten there.

Brielle thought that such a thing should worry her more, but there was a deeper part of herself that seemed to accept it as something inevitable and unadjustable. Everything would be fine ultimately, she believed that. Because she had to, there was little choice but to have faith that whatever had been going on with her with the spells of missing time was somehow attributed to the injuries she'd sustained that had required hospitalization.

After Wren's madness on the journals began, Brielle headed down the stairs, bordering on hysterics and in search of her sister. "Anaïs?!"

Who: Pepper P and Tony S
What: The Date. The one Tony has told everyone about.
When: Friday evening, Stark Tower.
Rating: Mildly PG-13.

( He could still be in the lab. Were it a benefit, or a function, he would be in the lab. He would prolong the amount of time before photographs and fanfare and champagne doing exactly what he preferred doing )

How much trouble would I be in if I were to say "I'm bored" and then something catastrophic happens?

Who: Bruce Wayne and Kal El (that sounds like a band - Bruce is George Clinton and Clark is P-Funk)
Where: The Batcave
When: Recently - after the Dick thing (teehee)
What: Bros being bros, yo.
Warnings: oh angst probably.

[Clark had heard that something had happened to Nightwing on the evening news in Metropolis. That was bad enough. So he'd hurried to Gotham and was waiting until things settled down before he went to see Bruce.

He knew his friend was hurting, and he knew his friend was worried - and that meant Clark was planning to stay awhile.

He made his way to the Batcave, and when he saw Bruce he smiled a bit.] I've been taking up space in your guest room, and I didn't even ask permission. All grievances can be filed with Martha Kent. [Not making light of the situation at all. Just opening the conversation.]

[Selina K]

Did you know he was back? Is he back? I thought he was dead.

[Bruce B]

Tell me that that strain of whatever disease, plague, illness now has an anti-virus sitting in one of the labs.

[As Isaac F]

Well, this is certainly interesting.

Would anyone like to tell me where New York City went to?

Who: Stephanie and Eddie
Where: Gotham -> VA Hospital
When: a few days after Grayson gets injured
What: Steph checks herself into the hospital and also gets engaged to Eddie whoops
Warning: None except their usual swearing

( Two days alone without Eddie, and Stephanie was on the brink. )

[Private to the Batfam+]

As some of you know, Stephanie's been suffering from anxiety attacks and other troubling symptoms of PTSD. She's done her best to take care of it herself, but she's made the choice to stay at a VA hospital for treatment. I've already falsified her papers so that she can get the help she needs.

She'd appreciate visits and messages soon. But, I'd say give her some time to adjust.

Is there a way for people who weren't at the pulse to get powers?
