>> Logan's body is missing
>> And it's apparently been missing for days.

Good evening, Mr. Summers. Can I convince you to part from your gigantic family for a few hours?

Emma's mental tone is playful, and it 'sounds' like she's smirking, which she definitely is.

She probably used his contacts, so if you think you're on them then you probably got this.

Sent around 1am

Gonna be out of town for a while. I can't promise I'll stay in touch. There's a thing I just have to do. Try and stay in one piece, all of you.

You're invited to our house for Thanksgiving, if you'd like. Rachel and Kitty are going to attempt to cook some turkeys.

>> So uhm
>> How WERE we handling thanksgiving?
>> Because I looked some recipes up.
>> And me and Kitty are staring at a huge turkey we could buy?

The center will be hosting a halloween party on the 31st, to give the kids a chance to let loose and have a little fun. I'm looking for volunteers to chaperone, and a costume is required.

I'll put out an open post tomorrow to see if we can get some extra help.

[Subject: Notice of Resignation]

Mr. Summers,

I'm writing to notify you that I will be resigning from my position at the Outreach Center, and my last day of employment will be October 31.

I appreciate the support I've been given during my time here, but I feel this decision is for the best. I would be happy to help with the transition in any way that I can during my remaining time with the center.

Respectfully,

Kate Freelander

>> How's it going?

>> I have been ordered to woo you
>> Would you like to get dinner?

>> Figured out how to give me grandkids yet?

[Scott]
>> Quick question.
>> This is you, right?
>> In the middle.
>> Dad showed this to me and I could swear it's you.
>> [old and faded photo of Hank Summers and Scott Summers with other random family members]

[Kitty]
>> 99% sure I'm long lost cousins to your girlfriend and her dad!
>> Get married.
>> We'll be indirectly related.

>> What if I told you
>> That you could have kept your job
>> That that was an option
>> And the school didn't have to close
>> But it meant I had to make sacrifices

To Scott:
>> Kitty's birthday is coming up.
>> I want to do something kind of special for her...

To Moira:
>> Moira Moira
>> Please tell me that I'm medically cleared.
>> School's coming up.
>> And I'm getting bored out of my mind.

>>

>> Do you need me to come shield anyone?
>> I don't know how much good I can do, but there's only one way to find out.

Did you perhaps neglect to warn me about something during our little chat last week?

I'm only asking because I've had the absolute worst migraine since last night, and I think my eyes were bleeding at some point.

>> Phoenix came for Rachel
>> She woke up hurt from a dream and it saved her life.
>> Moira is tending to her now.

Logan

>> You and I need to have a little chat when this settles down.

>> It has come to my attention.
>> That that thing you told me was NOT going to be my problem.
>> Has suddenly become my problem.
>> Now you are gonna read me in.
>> Or I'm gonna take away all your cookies.

>> Hey, Dad.
>> Hope you didn't think I forgot.
>> Happy Dad's Day!
>> I don't think Neena'd be angry if we ate some cake.
>> Which is why your favorite cake ever is up here.
>> In the teacher's lounge fridge.

So about five minutes ago we had a security breach up in my office. My damn desk's all splintered up and some shadowy bitch went and stabbed me.

Some damn pink girl portaled in with her and then portaled back out. The alarms didn't even sound, we need some better security in this place.

Maybe some magical warding bullshit or something. I will take any and all ideas.

>> Would either of you be home tomorrow afternoon?
>> Noon is when the movers can take most of my stuff to storage.
>> And I need to be able to get into the house after that.

Well, there's nothing quite so fun as arriving on time for a drinking date with a man, only to sit there for an hour and a half.

No messages, and you didn't show. I'm not a woman to be kept waiting, Mr. Summers. I assume you have the most forgivable of reasons, or I'm going to be extremely cross with you.

To Logan:
>> Don't do anything stupid.

To Scott:
>> Cerberus is getting too strong.
>> And there will be people who won't let this go.
>> There will be retaliation.
>> You need to do something, if you can.

>> Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeyooooooooo!

I got some anonymous intel the other day that gels pretty well with what we've been able to dig up ourselves about the recent snowy weather. The cause of this crap was definitely a person with some kind of snazzy ice powers.

Might be useful if we ever want some fresh sno-cones or something, but right now the person in question's got some amazingly shitty control of this stuff. This ain't even the fault of the person in question, so sadly, Wisdom, we can't just take them to weather jail. It's got some kind of tie to their emotional state, and apparently shit got real for this person sometime around the beginning of the month.

Right now I won't be giving out names, but I wanted to state for the record that we're on top of this and by no means do we intend to lock this person up or harm them.

>> Some of you weren't here for this
>> But Pete Wisdom
>> is from some of our dreams
>> mostly mine
>> ex-boyfriend there
>> anyway, this would be Wisdom #3 to grace Orange County
>> The first one was a Cerberus plant
>> I don't know what's up with the second one, I thought he was legit, so either he is and he's dead, or he isn't. And either way Navi is in serious trouble.


Nick Fury

>> Whatever Pete Wisdom says, assume automatically he's here on behalf of MI:6 or something.
>> I'm running every background check I know.

ETA:
Scott

>> Think you can take the Blackbird and check on Navi?

>> Fury is asking about the Phoenix
>> Black Widow told him.
>> I don't know if she's thinking about things I haven't dreamed about or not.
>> I know Kitty has hinted
>> Has she talked to you about it?

>> You want to tell me what the hell a Phoenix is?
>> And why the most hardened Russian Spy I know is terrified of it?
>> Also, if I'm losing Shepard and her team.
>> Is yours stepping up to the plate or what?

Shepard is retiring, for all intents and purposes, at the end of the month. I'll be taking over the ranch completely. I'll also be renaming it the Jean Grey Outreach Center.

>> Remember to call your grandmother.

Neena

>> About that thing we talked about

Dani

>> Are you sure about this?

Wolfwood

>> Good news and bad news.

Scott Summers

>> I know you've been chomping at the bit
>> We talked a little about it this afternoon
>> But my decision is made.

( To Scott )

( To Kitty )

( To Carter )

>> Gonna need to know about that power practice area or whatever it is
>> Dreamt about a lightning storm
>> When I woke up there was one outside and my house was on fire

To Kitty:
>> Okay, so.
>> Going through my old files from the Asylum finally.
>> Nathaniel Essex.
>> That's a name that sounds familiar.
>> Ringing any bells for you?

A Bit Later, To Scott:
>> Sit down.
>> Are you sitting down?
>> You're gonna love this.

Rachel

>> Take out tonight?

Ororo

>> Rachel's birthday is the 19th, got any ideas?


Neena

>> Got plans this weekend?

( Scott )

>> Kitty is 14
>> Rachel is 26
>> I think I need a vacation.

>> Did you guys shrink?
>> I shrank to 'enjoys disney movies' age.
>> It sucks :(

>> So uhm, hi dad.
>> You're not going to believe this.
>> But I went through a growth spurt or something.
>> Try not to call the police when I get home.
