Kitty
Chase had totally misjudged Kitty. She was clearly one of the awesome geeks who possibly not even geeky. Like him. Depending on if the ninja thing was at all accurate. Because ninjas were not geeks. Except Donatello and Donatello was a techno wizard, so he got a pass anyway.

He was enjoying going back and forth with her. Contrary to what he was teasing her with, he did indeed have pants on. Sweatpants, but pants none the less. He had no shirt on, because he was in his room and kicking back. That and he'd not bothered to put one back on after his shower earlier.

For now he was gleefully trading glib posts with Ms. Katherine Anne Pryde. And completely distracted by it.

Kitty was doing her best to slip carefully across campus to the other dorms while not attracting attention and not making it obvious to Chase that she was no longer sitting in her own room, on her computer. That had involved some minor tossing of her iPod out a window to make sure she didn't trash it when she exited through the side of the building, and once she reached the wall that she was sure was up against his room, she finished her last reply to him and carefully balanced the device on a rock.

Carefully, she leaned through the wall, peeking to make sure that he wasn't staring right at the spot where she was coming through. Thankfully, his back was turned completely, and she slipped through the rest of the way and air-walked to his bed, where she sat down and commented, "Guess you found pants."

Chase didn't realize he wasn't alone in his room (His roommate had been through but he'd not done much but say hi. He was beginning to think the guy had a girlfriend he spent most of his time with.) until Kitty spoke. Then his head whipped around and he ripped off the headphones he was wearing. "Fuck!" he cursed, nearly knocking over his chair.

His first question was neither tactful nor well thought out, but she had snuck up on him. "You're almost 18?" What? She was tiny. And not tiny like Gert was. Tiny in a cute kid sister way.

Kitty managed to not laugh at his reaction to discovering that she'd gone ahead and let herself in. Instead, she made a cringing style face in his general direction and held her hands out as though she was actually going to be able to stop his chair from falling.

"Unless my parents have been lying to me my entire life," she replied.

He recovered his balance at least quickly. There was no way teeny Kitty Pryde here was going to be able to keep him and his computer chair from toppling over and Chase really didn't want her to get crushed or anything.

Chase burst out laughing at her reaction. "They might be," he remarked wryly. "Seriously, where the Hell did you come from? The door's locked."

It was a good thing that he hadn't actually fallen, mostly because she hadn't actually planned on even trying to catch him. The movement was mostly just for show, and she grinned as he laughed, then turned her attention to his door, which she could tell was definitely locked.

"Is it? I didn't even check." She considered the door with a 'hm' noise before shrugging. "Ninja."

"I guess," he said, shaking his head. "I have never heard of 'ninja' powers, but you've made a believe out of me." He grinned at her and leaned back in his chair, folding his arms casually over his chest. "I suppose you're sorry I have pants on?"

Kitty gave him a mock salute and a wink. It was a shame that she couldn't just have "ninja" on her ID. It wasn't nearly as informative as what was on there, but it wasn't like the actual description really told the whole story anyway. "A little bit, but I guess that since I also have pants on, it's only fair."

It would be cool if she could have 'ninja' on her ID card. Too bad they didn't do fun stuff like that. "Well, I'm not wearing a shirt, so I'm not completely decent," he pointed out wryly. "So you just had to come show off your mad ninja skills, huh?"

"Yeah, I'm actually pretty scandalized, with your little dual nip-slip situation there," she gestured vaguely toward his chest. Nodding, she agreed, "Pretty much. And I wanted to see what the hell you looked like since I've been talking to you for the past... however long that was. It was starting to get creepy."

"Well, I can put a shirt on if it's disturbing you," he told her with a grin. "You must have missed the fashion show then. Because I was there. Anna and I brought pie. Since you so conveniently informed the entire school that it was Pi day."

"No, no... that's fine. You can keep it off. I really don't mind." She nodded. "I had a paper to write... it was the most self-control that I have ever exercised in my entire life, not going to that. We had pie in my room, though. How was the show? Did Anna strut her stuff too, or just supply the baked goods?"

Yeah, he figured she didn't. Chase was hot and he knew it. "Eh, you should have pulled an all nighter. These experiences can't be repeated. Although-" Chase reached over and ejected a disc from one of his towers. "they can be recorded and saved to high quality DVDs to shared." He offered the disc to her. "Vanessa sort of stole the show, but I got as much footage of everybody as I could. And no, we couldn't get Anna to strut. But that's understandable. I think she had a good time still."

"I did pull an all-nighter. It just wasn't one that involved coming over here." She smiled and reached for the disc. "Fuck, yeah. You're the best."

"Maybe next time. If we get her drunk or something." That probably wasn't the best plan, but at least it was a plan. "I'm glad everyone had fun, even though I find it hard to believe that everyone had fun without me."

Chase laughed and surrendered the disc. "Let me grab a case for that," he said, then turned to dig out one from his desk. He really needed to finish unpacking and probably build himself some rotating shelves for all of the crap he'd brought with him. Especially once he started working on new projects and getting involved in sporting teams. "Here ya go," he handed her over a CD case once he found one.

He actually sobered at that. "Nah, I think Anna's got a handle on what she can handle," he said. "Next time, we'll just have to make sure it's not skimpy bathing suits. Not that I was complaining about that part. Although Santo rocked the hat and scarf. Literally." He gave Kitty a pointed look. "Well, next time, live a little. It's just one paper."

"Thanks." She watched him digging through his desk and took a moment to enjoy the mess that was the rest of his room. She took the case with an appreciative nod and popped the DVD inside, then let it drop to the bed beside her.

"I think it's just a handy excuse," she replied. It wasn't entirely true, but it wasn't entirely not true, either. She shook her head, laughing at the mental image of Santo in a speedo and winter gear. "Hot."

"For your information, I was living a little. I knocked that paper out in like, an hour. I was doing other stuff after."

God, it was a mess. It was so bad it was bothering him. Just because he couldn't walk from his bed to any part of what was his half of the room without having to step over a box.

Chase laughed himself. "Hey, he worked it, I got to give him that," he admitted. "Although I forgot to ask Cally where she keeps her tentacles. I'm not sure I want to know, considering how little she was wearing, there wasn't many places to hide anything."

He scoffed. "Then quit your bitchin'," he told her. "You could have come over for an hour and struted with us. Then headed off with your boyfriend or whatever you were doing."

"You don't know?" Kitty raised an eyebrow. Since Callisto had probably not been wearing much else, Kitty figured it would have been kind of obvious... but maybe that was just because she already knew. "I could tell you if you want. Unless you want to hear it from her."

"I'm not bitching," she argued... and maybe whined just a little bit, for show. "I'm just happy that everyone was able to enjoy themselves. I usually supply all of the fun is all."

"And he isn't my boyfriend. For the record." Kitty glanced at the window and then nodded. "If I toss you something through there, promise to catch it and not break it?"

There was the eyepatch, but she was a model and they wore all kinds of crazy stuff when they didn't have to look perfect. Still, the most obvious place...yeah... Chase groaned and covered his face. "Her eye?" he guessed. "That's bad. Memo to me. Never need a demonstration of that particular power. Ever."

"Clearly you've taught them well," he shot back with a grin. "They don't need you to have fun anymore. Now you'll have to find a new niche."

Chase raised his brows at her information. "His loss," he observed. "Yeah, I think I can manage that after years of football and lacrosse. Go for it."

Kitty nodded and closed her eye, then held a hand up and did her best imitation of tentacle-fingers coming out of her eye. It was pretty cool, really. And the eyepatch look was really unique. Added a whole level of mystery. Overall, Kitty gave the entire thing a rating of "absolutely badass."

"I guess so. My life... I don't know what to do with it now." She smiled, raising her brows in response to his brow-raise. "Or my gain, if we're being perfectly honest here."

"Awesome." She smiled and turned, rolling off the bed and carefully walking around his stuff so she could pop the window open. "Brb."

She headed back through the wall to scoop up her iPod, thankfully before someone else came along and discovered it. Stepping back up into the air, she leaned into the window and held it out, making sure that he was ready before she tossed it. "Catch."

Oh it was absolutely badass. Chase just was not a tentacle kind of guy. It wasn't his thing. He'd never gotten the whole hentai-tentacle-porn thing.

"Wow, and people think I'm a narcissist," he retorted. "I don't love myself that much." Which was mostly true, even though he was pretty damned awesome.

And then she opened up his window (letting in the fucking arctic air, what the hell, it was MARCH, almost April) and then walked through the wall. "What the-?" Okay, that explained how she got in without using the door or catching his attention. "Yeah, ready."

Chase caught the iPod and immediately ordered it to turn on and bring up what she was looking at last. Which was unexcitingly their last conversation. "Close the window. It's cold as hell out there."

"I get away with it because I also happen to be absolutely adorable." Kitty flashed a smile, before laughing at herself. It was fun to act like she was a much bigger douchebag than she really was.

When she tossed him the iPod, she watched for a moment as he turned it on and started reading. Rolling her eyes at his request, she stepped back through the wall and turned to close the window. "You need to grow a pair, Chase. This is spring. It's beautiful out there."

"Yeah, yeah, you're cute as a button," he agreed with a smirk. It really was fun to act like more of a jerk than he actually was.

Well, since there was nothing interesting, as soon as she was solid again, he offered Kitty back her iPod. "If you're a polar bear," he shot back. "I thought Seattle was cold in the spring. This is all new levels of 'this is spring?'."

She accepted the iPod as she settled back on the edge of his bed, and laughed. "I'm from Chicago, land of the deep freeze and face-ripping arctic wind. This is nothing."

Of course, she'd been in New York more than she'd really been in Chicago, but it still sort of counted. Ish. Plus, she'd grown up with Bobby... which brought up a point. She pointed at him. "You haven't met my Robert yet, have you?"

"I've been to Chicago. In the winter even. This is supposed to be springtime." He'd grown up in LA. He'd gone to high school in Seattle. He was used to mild to warm temperatures. "Clearly nature is telling us it's not time to stop hibernating just yet."

Chase shook his head. "Not ringing any bells," he said. "Since none of the hot girls last night were named Robert, and neither were the few guys. So I'm gonna have to go with no. Should I have?"

"Stop bitching," she shook her head. "It's not very manly."

"Maybe, maybe not. Bobby is what he goes by. He's responsible for most of my immunity to cold." She turned her iPod off and rested it on top of the DVD. "If you haven't met him yet, it's only a matter of time."

"My bitching is very manly, thank you," he countered. "Besides, I am not immune to cold. Possibly because I don't know Bobby. Does he lie sabotage you with ice cubes at every opportunity? If so, I think I like him."

"Manly in a little girl kind of way, maybe." Nodding, Kitty agreed. She could go with that. "Yes. He does that. We had to take all of the ice cube trays out of the freezer in the common room because he kept abusing the privilege."

"But still manly," Chase insisted. He laughed at the idea of the guy actually taking ice cubes to his buddies. "Yeah, I definitely like him."
