Who: Sophie Cuckoo and Quentin Quire. (Guest appearance by Logan)
Where: Frost Mansion, swimming pool
When: Last night
Warnings: None

Sophie was surprised by how good her mood was now, after having split. She'd thought she would be devastated. Her fear and worry of taking that jump had faded away into a deep contentment she didn't realize she would be able to feel on her own. The last of her doubt disappeared when Ms. Frost told Sophie she was proud of her. Sophie didn't think she'd ever been this happy in her life.

When she heard the doorbell, Sophie raced down the stairs, a towel wrapped tightly around her.

'Hi!' she sent loudly to him as she opened the door. 'Come on!' She grinned, her excitement leaking everywhere as she started running toward the steps that led downward to the pool area. It was heated and inside, but the roof over it was glass, so they could see the stars and the moonlight.

Quentin smile3d as he saw her.

He reached out mentally and touched her, just a gentle touch as he followed her, grinning.

Hello, beautiful.

He chuckled,. watching her.

As he got near the pool he let her joy fill him and his own bubble out, but carefully cast a shield around the area, so others would not be disturbed by them.

He dove into the pool in a shallow dive after discarding his shirt and grinned as he hit water.

Mmmmmmm, nice...

Sophie shed the towel, letting it fall in a chair as she dove in. She didn't know why she had such a drive to swim tonight. It was such a different experience than before. She wasn't in synch with the other girls. Swimming had never been much fun before. People had made jokes about the girls being the ultimate synchronized swimming team, but swimming had never held their interest. There was just something new about everything. Even the way the water felt against her skin was different.

Her little mental giggles rippled through the water. She started swimming the length of the pool.

	He watched her. Did I mention you were gorgeous? He grinned, watching her, and feeling her elation, feeling it rise in him as well. He swam near, but not quite touching her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Sophie surfaced, grinning and shaking her head to spray water outward.

You might have.

She felt the presence of Mr. Logan's mind before she saw him. He wasn't trying to hide, though. He wanted them to know he was there. She mentally pointed Quentin toward the man before dipping back under the surface. She was sure Ms. Frost had sent him to look threatening and keep an eye on them, but her mood wasn't dampened at all. She didn't plan on doing anything Mr. Logan would object to.

	Quentin smiled and waved. "Evening, Sir!" He knew a Wolverine from his world. Damn good poker player. He ducked under the water and back up again. A watchdog? Amusement flavored his mental voice. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Sophie grinned. 'It looks that way.'

She swam a little closer to the edge and waved. "Hi, Mr. Logan!"

Logan rose a brow, looking at the two swimmers. He gave them a nod and a grunt. The ex-Stepford's greeting threw him a little off-balance. They'd never been friendly. She was in a good mood. Maybe too good. But the Quentin kid had only been here for a minute or two, and he didn't smell anything out of place. He leaned back against one of the walls and popped a claw, examining it.

	He smiled at the man and swam, close but not indecently close, to Sophie. He reminds me a lot of the Logan of my world. He smiled, then swam, relaxing. I am just glad to be here with you. I will even behave. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

All of the Mr. Logans are probably like that. I can't really imagine anything else.

Quentin would know better about that, though, wouldn't he? World-hopping, and all.

I'm glad, too.

She smiled brightly to Quentin before turning her attention back to Logan. "Do you swim, Mr. Logan?" It would probably be rude to ask if he would rust.

Logan wasn't really a fan of all the giggling and smiling about things he couldn't hear. Freaking telepaths. And telepath kids, too. It was just creepy. Slightly less creepy now that she wasn't with the other Stepfords. He popped the cap of his beer open with his adamantium claw. "Not a big swimmer, no," he answered.

	Most of them are, though you would be surprised. His mind supplied an image of a clown-appearing Wolverine, for her horror and amusement. He grinned at her and then glanced at Logan. "A shame... out of curiosity... what is your favorite beer?" It had been different on each world. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Sophie burst into loud laughter and slapped her hand over her mouth. She covered it up by pretending she had swallowed some water and was choking. Reassuring vibes were sent to Quentin, and she recovered quickly.

Logan looked at the girl with concern, but relaxed as her coughing passed. "Okay?" he asked Sophie. When she nodded, he turned back to Quentin. "Not real picky. Molson's good."

	He grinned, at her, then eyes went wide as she choked, before he relaxed. Don't scare me like that, you beautiful wench! He nodded to Logan. "Each one of you I have encountered has like a different kind." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Don't make me laugh like that in front of Wolverine. He's already paranoid enough around telepaths.

She smiled and splashed water at Quentin.

Logan rose an eyebrow and gave a little grunt. "One of those world-hopper types, huh?" Maybe Quentin would be hopping out of this one soon. The kid seemed nice enough, but Logan was wary of Quentin, and Emma definitely didn't like him.

Yes, Mistress!!! A mental grin accompanied his title of her.

He splashed water back.

"I worked with a professional group to try to set right the shit that went down wrong... people getting hurt, dying, history turned wrong. Giving people a chance for hope and peace. Sometimes we won... sometimes we didn't."

He sighed, shaking his head.

"And now... here I am, stuck... and happy for once."

He smiled at Sophie.
