I don't want it to come as a surprise, so I'm moving out soonish.

What could I bribe you with to look over some building plans with me?

	-- Near enough I can make it to work every day. Far enough I can ~~breathe~~ enjoy some peace and quiet. -- I'm thinking of unofficially stepping down from X-Men affairs for the time being, as well.

	-- It's almost cute. You sound like a teenager again. -- I can quit whatever I please, thank you very much. Change is painful, but it's necessary. I can handle it fine. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

-- Darling, I quit my actual family before I knew the X-Men existed. Of course I can quit family.
-- And half of these people don't mean anything to me beyond shared genetics.
-- You can't quit family. I am not you.
-- I care about the kids and intend to be around for them. I will continue training with Logan and probably drink bad liquor with him when we are both feeling especially social. I am still talking to you. I will attempt to be civil with the rest when it is necessary.
-- Why is it so important to you that I stay here?

	-- Blood family's different -- But family you choose is a bigger schism -- I care about you Em -- A lot of us do -- And I just hate to see after everything this group's been through, that we can't even tolerate peace. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	-- What? -- You saw the kid I was -- The things I've done for this family -- To have it all have been for nothing? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

-- It wasn't for nothing and you have the family you have chosen. You have your team. Right now. They're there. If they mean so much to you, go be with them and live your life.
-- You grew up, Scott. This focus on innocence lost is useless. We're all monsters or sinners or failures and we've all made mistakes. Show me one who hasn't. It would have been different in a perfect world, sure. That's not what we got. Self flagellation serves no purpose here.
-- Mutantkind is alive. We won. You are not the only person who has made sacrifices and lost things for the mission. That's the price we pay. I was never so naive to think there wouldn't be a cost.

	-- I need you to look at it with defense in mind. It's gorgeous, as far as my architect is imagining it, but I don't want to leave myself open to attack. -- I may be taking some steps back from people, as well. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
