There were things you could count on it chemistry class. These included the fact that Dr. Madrox would explain and demonstrate very awesome things, but never let them actually perform those experiments for themselves because he was afraid of accidentally turning one of them radioactive or something. She wasn't sure. Another thing you could count on was the constant note passing that went on while Jamie continued to teach and was a good enough sport that he pretended not to see. As long as it was the proper him or one of the right dupes, he was a teddy bear, and they all knew it. Knew it and respected it. Wouldn't due to take him for granted and then get stuck with one of the weird dupes who got all militant about things. The notes were just their thing. They had to stay away from cell messages in the class because if the technopath got excited then she ended up shorting them all out. No one wanted to reprogram another new phone. So it was old skool pen and paper for them.

Yana mostly just teleported things where they were supposed to go. She liked chemistry. It was interesting. She liked the formulas and the experiments. And maybe liked the idea of being able to figure out how to make a bomb or acids a little more the she should, but hey they were gonna be heroes so they might need that stuff too. So people had stopped trying to send her messages for the most part since they knew she was going to ignore them anyway. Except the one today that landed on her desk had her name scrawled across it in very large letters.

After making sure that Jamie wasn't doing anything more interesting than balancing a chemical formula, which she could do in her sleep, Yana carefully unfolded the piece of paper. The handwriting was terrible, but it didn't matter because she could still read it. She could read it, and it made her heart rush a little. Heard Kitty Pryde was back. Someone reported seeing her in the hallway talking to Xavier. True? Y/N?

Chemistry be damned. Finding out if Kitty was back was more important than anything Jamie could teach her today.

Without even saying a word, Yana tessered out of her seat in a bright flash of light. A moment later there was a second bright flash of light as the note that had been passed to her was deposited on Dr. Madrox's desk. There was her get out of jail free card.

The next flash of light was in Kitty's room, where Yana had spent quite a large amount of time growing up, and was the first place she had thought to check. "Kitty?" she called out, voice higher than normal and louder due to her excitement. There had of course been letters and emails over the years, but it wasn't the same as having her best friend right there and present.

"Eh. You're all ancient. It's hard to keep track," she said with a roll of her eyes and a grin.

"True," she said, mimicking Kitty's nod from a few moments ago. "Although that could be a good way to meet new people. We have managed to drag in a few since your," she trailed off, trying to figure out what word was best considering the situation while also not wanting to hurt her friend's feelings, "departure. Some are more fun than others."

The mention of paint made her bite her lip. It shouldn't. It was just a word. "Yeah. Could do. Boring though. All that rolling and taping and moving things. Not that moving things is a problem for either of us."

"Hey!" Kate grabbed one of the shirts they'd been discussing and tossed it at Yana's face, laughing as she insisted, "I'm only five years older than you!"

Kate took Yana's pause as an opportunity to gently close her drawer, trying her very best not to let herself feel overwhelmingly guilty again. She raised an eyebrow. "Maybe you should warn them."

Being in the room didn't seem like it was doing either of them much good, judging from Yana's reaction. It was a subtle tell, but one that Kate was familiar with. Painting sounded like it was making her uncomfortable, and while Kate didn't really like the idea of waking up in a room that hadn't been changed since before, she liked the idea of causing Yana any more pain even less. It was time to change the subject.

"Is Jamie's class your last one today?" She stooped to grab her shoes, slipping them on with a teensy hop and then standing up straight again. "If it isn't, I say you ditch whatever else you have and we go putz around town."
