Because someone is totes enjoying canon!Kitty's new little crush...

[kittyhawk]

Do me a favor and don't get any dumb ideas. I mean, technically I'm already in a thing, so it's not like it'd change my current situation any. If anything it'd probably just make things a lot more confusing.

Still, it would be nice to have some new friends...

Not that I've actually had a lot of, y'know, things myself (and yet I'm a mommy, check that out), but I say live it up!

You only live once, y'know?

Except for that part where, in our world, you kinda don't.

[kittyhawk]

And I say you lucked out. Cutest little guy in the world with none of the complication of dealing with the... relationship stuff often required in the process.

[bloodandbubblegum]

I did! I absolutely did with Shogo. No complaints here. I mean, after M-Day, and then after the whole vamping out thing, I kinda thought I had nothing left to live for...or unlive for.

But Shogo...he gave me purpose again, y'know?

God, back in the day, I would've made fun of someone saying that a baby brought them purpose.

So! Tell me about this other thing you have going on?

[wildbluevagner]

Kitty's got a crush, Kitty's got a crush!

[Maybe it's not 'his' Kitty exactly, but he feels he'd be doing a disservice to the universe by not teasing any version of Kitty that he can.]

[icelad]

You get into a lot of things, don't you?

[Of course "a lot" to him is just more than one.]

[parthenogenetic]

Is this about Peter Quill?

[kittyhawk]

[She smiles at that, nodding in understanding. She may not be able to relate, exactly, to all that Jubilee has been through, but Kitty does know what it's like to feel like you've found some kind of purpose.] He's such a sweet little guy. Seems like we manage to find exactly what it is we need from the most unexpected sources.

Oh. [Gdi, Jubilee. That was Kitty's attempt at shifting the topic so she didn't have to get into all the "horrible" things the person at the keyboard has done to her.] It's... nothing. Really. As much as I think I'm starting to like the guy, he's got a lot of baggage. He's kinda emotionally challenged on top of all that baggage. It'll go down as another one of Kitty Pryde's famous romantic blunders, I'm sure.

[kittyhawk]

[Luckily for Kurt, Kitty has a soft spot for all elves of the furry and blue persuasion. She'll just groan and cover her face with her hands, trying to hide the smirk on her face.] I do not. Shhh.

[kittyhawk]

Awwww. Is that jealousy I hear? Aww, Bobby. Don't worry. One day you'll find someone who can tolerate your brand of annoying. [In fact, the older Bobby that Kitty usually hangs around with is doing quite well after their breakup. He married an Avenger!]

[kittyhawk]

Is it that obvious?

[bloodandbubblegum]

[It's been a hell of a trip, between being depowered, trying to be a hero without them, and then becoming a vampire. Shogo...he normalizes things, in an odd way.]

Or he could be the unexpected source that gives you exactly what you need right now. And yes in retrospect, I realize how sexual that kind of sounds, but let's ignore that, mmmkay?

One thing I've learned from growing up between Xavier's and the Massachusetts Academy is that we've all got lots of baggage, though. Emma did. Monet, bless her snarky heart, did. God knows Wolverine has all the baggage that's mutantly possible. Kind of the thing in our world.

Unless you're Warren right now and don't really remember your past all that much.

But. I mean. You know what I mean.

Also, didn't you and Bobby kinda fizzle out?

[Jubilee, so not up on the gossip for once. She can tell you which animal blood tastes the best, though, and what the best diaper brand is.]

[wildbluevagner]

[He's just about the luckiest elf isn't he.]

What's that? I couldn't hear you. Come on, tell the fuzzy man about your new boyfriend.

[icelad]

[Forget marriage, this Bobby just wants to get to first base with a girl.]

Hey, I'll have you know that I have no problems with the ladies.

[Never mind the fact that he's the only one of their little group that hasn't gotten any action yet.]

Because someone is playing people from Kitty's little crush's history...

[star_lady]

Be gentle with him, child.

[internalflame]

Hey, it's better than the last guy... right?

[ Because all those thought she was having about her teammate in the future were seriously disturbing to sixteen year old Jeannie here. ]

[parthenogenetic]

You kissed him on the cheek. [ So.... maybe just a little? ]

[kittyhawk]

[Hey, hey. Her thoughts about Bobby were mostly innocent. Mostly. Sort of. Okay, so there were a few times where her mind was elsewhere but lets be honest, if you were grossed out by her dating the older Bobby, you're really not going to like who she's been hanging around lately.

... because, u know, you should be properly inducted into our ridiculous RP stuff now that you're stuck with us.

But since they're not on that subject at the moment...] To be fair, I don't really know him too well, but he seems cool.

meep meep ♥♥♥

[kittyhawk]

Oh. Oh, of course. I have no intention of doing anything that would hurt or upset him.

[kittyhawk]

Sure, but he also helped us save Jean. A kiss on the cheek seemed appropriate.

excuse the pb icons, apparently my comic icons are limited on expressions.

[kittyhawk]

[Dream big, kid. :')]

Oh yeah, I'm sure you do great with the ladies. Just bad luck that none of the ladies here seem to be interested, huh?

[kittyhawk]

[He's well loved, so yes~]

Well, first off, we're not calling him that because there is no new boyfriend or... any boyfriend, for that matter.

[kittyhawk]

[Oh, it totally sounds sexual. Especially when you point it out like that, so Kitty? Her cheeks might be warming up just a bit, her face flushed at the very idea.] Yeeeaaah, somehow I'm doubting that. Trust me on this one, Jubilee. I know that everyone has their baggage. Heck, I probably have a ton, but... there's baggage and there's baggage that you use as a wall to keep people out. On principal, I don't like walls. I guess that's part of what is so appealing about someone who is, like, actively interested.

Bobby and I fizzled out big time. Can't say I broke up with him in the nicest way possible. I probably could have been a little more understanding of everything he's been going through since the Snowpocalypse, but... what's done is done. What can you do?

[internalflame]

[ As long as it's someone whose thoughts she hasn't had to live with lately, it's fine. Try to imagine being on a team with four other teenager boys at the ripe age of sixteen when psychic powers are suddenly thrust upon you. ]

Want me to scope things out? [ Without even flinching, she offers to read the new guy's mind. What a pal she's got here.

... though now she suspects she's going to get scolded for that. ]

[wildbluevagner]

What about future boyfriend, then?

[kittyhawk]

[... okay, well, she can't promise that, but both parties have been trying very hard not to be totally obvious about their little thing, so at least there's that? The saddest thing is that Peter Quill would be the less complicated option here.]

No. No. No, no, no. None of that.
