Day 6: Afternoon
Who: Kaylee, Shannon, & Wolverine
What: Meet and greet
When: Afternoon
Where: Theater
Rating: TBA
Status: Active



After a very pleasant morning spent in Kaylee's company, and a quick break to actually bother finding clothes, getting themselves ready for the day (albeit a few hours late), and a few quick entries in his journal (had to give Rorschach hell, after all), Logan somewhat reluctantly got ready to leave.

"I'm heading over to the theater, Kaylee. Told Shannon I'd meet her over there to chat in person."

"Oh, can I come?" Kaylee pulled down the shirt she had gotten down fully into place, which proudly proclaimed 'Virginity Is For Losers' on the front of its dark blue fabric. "Not that I'm being clingy or nothin', just I want to meet Shannon too. We're supposed ta talk about...stuff while I finish working on the water heater."

Admittedly, she was more than a little sore, and not likely to be sitting down for extended periods of time for anytime soon. But, in a good way, at least she thought so.

Still, she was excited at the prospect of meeting her friend that she had only met over odd Cortex tablets made of paper. Fairly dancing in place in her eagerness to go, (she had gotten a cat nap a bit earlier), she waited for his answer.

"Sure. I don't mind. Kill two birds with one stone. And bring the gloves. The metal might come in handy. It's magnetized."

Logan had finally found their clothes up the tree on the other side of the library, which had amused him. He glanced at Kaylee. "You gonna be warm enough out there? Y'can borrow my jacket or one of the flannels if not."

When Kaylee had sent her the note in the journal after such a long break in between mentioning that she knew Logan was coming to meet her at the library and wanted to know if she could come along, Shannon had said yes, but it wasn't without a wince. Kaylee said they woke up together naked. She insinuated they'd slept together. And they were coming to meet Shannon at the same time. Jesus, she hoped she didn't have to witness their direct afterglow...

She huddled into herself with her arms wrapped tightly around her to try to keep out the cold. She couldn't help it, though, after a few minutes of waiting for them, when she reached one of her hands out, running her fingers gingerly through the snow. She'd seen it in the movies and on television, but she'd never seen it in person. Or felt it. Or been able to enjoy the way the sun glinted off it like diamonds.

Hearing voices approaching, Shannon withdrew her hand and closed off her childlike interest, raising her eyes to the sound as she held herself as she could see them approaching in the distance. They were close, at least, and probably in earshot. "Hey," she called out. "Hurry up, it's fucking cold out here," she added playfully.

Well, Logan didn't have an afterglow. He didn't DO afterglow. A touch smug, yes. Glowy, shit no.

"So, you're Shannon, then?" He asked as they came into sight of her. Then Logan grinned. "Trying to make a snowball?" Then, to Kaylee. "Shit no, definitely not the first time, nor the last. S'why I recognized this place for the clusterfuck it was when I woke up here."

"That's me," Shannon agreed, her eyes sliding up and down his form and then over at Kaylee. She raised her eyebrows and smirked as if to playfully and silently tell her journal friend, "God, I hate you," because she had to agree that Logan was, indeed, as swai as Kaylee had said he was. It was pretty obvious that Kaylee was glowing and all it did was make Shannon feel worse about the failed attempt with Dean and the cold shoulder she felt like she was being given by him, now, in return.

Her eyes moved back to Logan and she wrinkled her nose. "No, I told you before, I'd never seen it before," she laughed. "I was just checking it out. You look appropriately smug; I somehow am unsurprised given the tone in the journals." Then she looked back at Kaylee. "And you..." she said with a knowing smirk. "It's nice to meet you guys in person."

Logan had to fight down a laugh. Shannon might not have said a word, but what she was thinking was pretty damn clear, by the look on her face and a few other hints ... most of it stuff most people wouldn't pick up on.

"It's cold, and wet, and if you pack it into a ball, you can nail people with it, though that generally degenerates into /everyone/ doing the same thing." Logan informed her, his tone playful. He didn't even bother dignifying the 'journal' comment with an answer. "Good to meet you too."

Shannon smirked a little at Kaylee and winked to let the other woman know she got the message and expected her to follow through on that promise. "That does make me feel a little better," she agreed. "Although, it was in my world...just not where I lived. The climate was too hot for it," she explained, absently balling some of the snow up in her hands.

Her eyes moved back to Logan and a mischievous grin crossed her lips. "Like a snowball fight you mean?" she asked, packing more snow against the tiny ball between her hands without looking down at it. "How would one start off something like that?" Hell, she could fucking use a laugh, anyway. Especially at both of their expenses since they'd gotten laid, clearly, and she hadn't.

She looked over at Kaylee and gave a slight cock of her eyebrows as if asking Kaylee to dare her to pelt Logan with the wimpy ball of snow she'd managed to make. Her hands were already red, wet, and cold as hell from holding it. If she didn't throw it at him, she'd just put it down, anyway. Might as well have a little more fun with it, though, she thought.

Logan shook his head. "Two of you'd flip out in the Canadian Rockies mid-winter. Snow up to here, some places." He motions to the bottom of his rib cage. "At any rate ..." He stopped. He'd been about to suggest moving inside, but the question and the ball of snow Shannon was holding stopped him.

"All you gotta do is throw that, doll. Just be ready to get it returned."

Shannon looked a little surprised at Logan's description. "Seriously that much?" she asked, eyes widened with actual shock at the very idea. She'd never seen snow until now in her life and he'd seen snow up to his ribs? That was nearly unfathomable to Shannon.

Even though she was looking at Logan, still, she saw the look that Kaylee had given, however carefully she kept her face in the same surprised expression, so as not to let on. It lightened slightly when he said all she had to do was throw the ball. "Ooohhh, that's all huh?" Her eyes moved back to Kaylee who was still glowing. Shannon cocked her eyebrows and pelted Kaylee instead, before quickly making another haphazard ball of snow and throwing that one at Logan. "That'll show you guys to come around looking all post-sex when I can't get any," she laughed.

"Yeah, seriously that deep." Logan said. "Canada doesn't fuck around when it comes to winter."

Anything else he might've said got silenced by snowball. Not that it hit him in the face ... it impacted on his chest ... but he was diverted. He ended up laughing. "Y'ain't been trying hard enough, doll. Not like there aren't guys enough around here!" And then he swept up a handful of snow and packed it up.

His own ball was nearly as badly packed as Shannon's. He may have lived in snowy Canada for ten years (that he remembered) but it's not like he got to /play/ in the snow much. He lobbed it at her, aiming well south of her face and hoping she didn't duck down for more snow at the wrong moment.

Shannon squeaked with surprise when the both of them nearly hit her with their snowballs at the same time. She supposed she deserved it and it was fucking cold when they both hit - Logan's to her side and Kaylee's to her shoulder when she had started to move to make another snowball - but she couldn't help the surprised laugh that cropped up as the cold water slid down into her shirt.

"Oh, no you did not!" she laughed at Kaylee. "That's just mean!" She knew the other woman was joking by her tone, but she couldn't help it; she had to give that response.

Looking back at Logan as she packed another ball and lobbed it in his direction, she raised her eyebrows. "Yeah, well, I've got my eyes on a specific one and he's too busy not noticing me to be fucking me so..." She packed another ball and tossed it at him again, thinking maybe she and Kaylee could gang up on him since he was so much more familiar with snow than they were. "Easier said than done, smarty pants."

And now it was time for silent guy-girl communication. Logan looked Shannon up and down with a look that said, quite clearly, that anyone who refused to notice her was a hell of a sorry son of a bitch. Of course, in the process, he ended up getting pelted with two snowballs.

"Operation B? Or do I wanna know?" He asked as he scooped up more snow and chucked the resultant balls at Shannon in retaliation.

While Shannon caught the look from Logan, she pretended she hadn't. As far as she was concerned, he was Kaylee's territory and she wasn't going to step on toes intentionally. ...even if maybe a tiny part of her wanted to see for herself what the big deal was.

Packing up another snowball, Shannon came down the steps and positioned herself to hit Kaylee with it without hitting Logan. "B is also for Bitch, what the fuck, Kaylee?!" she laughed. Logan would have to be a pretty stupid guy not to put it together in context. Either that or just oblivious.

"Batt ... " Logan starts, then he gets it, and lets out a laugh. "I should have /known/." He grabbed more snow, and this time pelted both women, one after the other. "I shoulda known."

The dichotomy of a childish snowball fight while talking about masturbation with the aids of battery powered objects struck Shannon as insanely hilarious.

It might've been the delirium of a so far horrible day, but she burst into giggles, doubling over and finally sinking to the ground on her knees, letting the snowballs pelt her. "I can not believe we're talking about this out loud," she laughed. "Oh, my God. This place is so fucked up..."

"Nothing wrong with it." Logan said. "We're all consenting adults. Least I think so." He eyed their snow-dusted selved dubiously. "Though I do recommend we move this indoors before the two of you freeze half to death. Neither of you's dressed for a prolonged snowfight."

Logan had a good point and as soon as he said it, Shannon realized just how cold her hands were. And her face. And, well, all of her. "Yeah, I'm all for heading inside," Shannon agreed. "Fun while it lasted, though, huh?"

She looked over at Logan, then and raised her eyebrows. "Is that a crack on my age or just a crack in general?" she teased.

Logan herded them both towards the doors into the theater. "Hope they have someplace set up for a fire in here." He said. "And that was a crack in general, doll. We just need to get you two some warmer clothes before we do that again."

Shannon allowed herself to be ushered into the theater, brushing the snow from her clothes and shaking it out of her hair. "Fair enough," she agreed with Logan. She hadn't realized it until just then before she spoke, but her teeth were chattering.

Cupping her hands together and putting them to her mouth to blow hot air onto them, she looked over at Kaylee and made a face, dropping her hands away again. "Shut up," she laughed. "What would you have thought if you woke up with a complete stranger naked and spooning you, calling you 'babe'?" she asked. "At least you'd met Logan ahead of time," she pointed out.

Logan snorted as the theater's doors closed behind them, cutting them off from the worst of the cold. "Not like she knew who I was when she woke up, I don't think." He'd been a BIT distracted at the time, himself.

"Let's see if we can find someplace to get a fire going, get you two dried off and warmed up."

"In other words, yes, I've stopped cursing Sam the Second to Special Hell," Shannon interjected in response to Logan's contradiction to her logic. Her eyes were on Kaylee as she said it, smirking at the inside knowledge of what the other woman's comment meant.

Logan suggested that they get a fire going and get them warm and dry. Kaylee's response made Shannon smirk. "You're such a perv," she laughed. "All my clothes are back at the museum, so I dunno how warm and dry I can manage to get here but..." she reproached gently, looking back at Logan as she hopped up to sit on the stage, dangling her legs and swinging them lazily over the side.

"You are such a smart ass," Shannon replied, smirking at Kaylee. She grinned in response to Logan's retort about Kaylee keeping her mind out of the gutter and put her hands down on the stage behind herself, leaning her weight back on them.

When Logan told them to grab some chairs, Shannon looked back at him dubiously, raising her eyebrows. "Uh, I don't know about her, Superman, but I can't lift a metal chair bolted to the floor and not to point out the flaw in your plan, but the chairs we could lift...are probably flammable as well..." she said even as Kaylee jumped down to do just that. For someone as strong-willed as Kaylee had seemed on the journals, she certainly had no problem being bossed around by some guy... Shannon wasn't that easy. She just stared back at Logan with her eyebrows raised as if to challenge him to give her a better reason to follow directions when she'd found fault in his plan.

Shannon spared a set of rolled eyes in the direction of Logan's retreating back. Yeah, I'll get right on it, tough guy. Please, could I? she thought. A girl who was used to having maids and nannies her whole life and then having the keen ability to get whatever she wanted out of men with a coy grin and the batting of her eyelashes was less than enthralled with the idea of being told what to do by some guy she'd just met, shiny or not.

But she looked back at Kaylee and smirked slightly. "Hey now..." she said in a playfully warning voice. She hopped off the stage and picked up one of the chairs in the orchestra pit, making a conscious effort to keep the bitterness off her expression. She wasn't doing it because Logan said so. She was doing it because she didn't want to look like a slouch, especially if Kaylee was going to help.

As she brought the chair up on the stage, she thought maybe she was actually a bit of a third wheel. She'd help them with the fire and warm up a bit, but then she'd head back to the museum and give them more time alone. Shannon was less worried about being uncomfortable and more eager not to interrupt Kaylee from another possible session of stress relief. She'd expect Kaylee to head off, if the tables were turned, in any case.

Shannon furrowed her brow and shook her head slowly, because, no, she didn't remember anything about claws. Either he thought he'd said and he hadn't, or she was just so wrapped up in her own stupid drama that she simply didn't remember, but in any case, when he popped one her eyes went wide and she stiffened. Holy shit...

Her eyes shifted to Kaylee in a silent seriously?! expression and she blinked, before looking back at him. Jesus, she'd better stay on his good side, after all...

"Do neither of you guys have, like, a lighter or your matches or anything?" she asked quietly, raising her eyebrows at both Logan and Kaylee in turn. She hadn't brought anything; all of Shannon's things were stowed safely away in the room she shared with Sam at the museum. She hadn't thought she'd need anything.

At least the look on Kaylee's face suggested that Shannon wasn't some sort of a rube for being a little freaked out by seeing a guy extending a metal claw. That made her feel marginally better, if not entirely.

"Well, I left my stuff and if you guys left your stuff..." Shannon said slowly, frowning just slightly. She purposefully did not respond to his apology about freaking her out - acknowledging further that it had scared her to see would only paint her out to be more of a victim than she already seemed to look to everyone and that was decidedly bad. Instead, she just nodded.

Kaylee sat down beside her and she looked over at the other woman briefly out of reflex for having seen the movement in the corner of her eye before she looked back at Logan. "Any suggestions, then...? Since we don't have matches or lighters?"
