just finished rewatching season 1...

[shadowcatastrophe]

Okay! so, like, this is kind of awesome, right? I mean, out of all of the other X-Men you chose me. [ it's hard not to be a little excited. ] Me!

I know you had been considering a few others, even Rogue, but let's just forget about them! [ a thoughtful pause. ] Well, maybe not entirely. I think I'm starting to miss them already, if you can believe it. [ she chuckles softly. ]

Oh, and by the way, my username... totally not cool.

[Three fingered wave of hello.]

My own writer, dhey vonder if I need younger icons sometimes.

[shadowcatastrophe]

oh, Wow, look at you! And Scott said you'd be the last of us to grow up. [ she giggles. ] You sure proved him wrong!

But, hey, it couldn't hurt. It's on Netflix, so collecting screencaps will be nothing, if not tedious. Or so I've heard. My mun is already complaining and she hasn't even started yet! Can you, like, believe it?

[strikingblue]

Repeat high school? [He waves that idea off.] Nein, nein, I do fine being from dhe circus.

[shadowcatastrophe]

It's not that bad... [ she trails off and takes a couple of seconds to think about it. ok, maybe it does kind of sort of stink sometimes, but at least it gets her out of the institute for a couple of hours. she could definitely do without the homework though! ]

Ok, fine, I'll give that one to you, but... at least we'd get to see each other again, right?

[strikingblue]

[A knowing smile. He thought so, high school was never as good as it sounded.]

I see you fine now, ja?

[shadowcatastrophe]

[ no, not it's not. ] I am! for, like, ...now. I keep hearing about these games and, honestly, they all sound kind of awful. [ she sighs, rubbing the back of her neck. ] Have you ever been in one of them?

[strikingblue]

[He shakes his head.]

I haf not. My writer...they come and go, no time for dhe games. Dhey are dangerous and take too long.

[shadowcatastrophe]

That's probably for the best. I've heard horror stories about them and, like, they weren't even talking about horror games! [ are they all really that bad. she frowns, rubbing her face with a sigh. ] Dangerous is right. Give me the Danger Room any day.

In any case, I'm glad your writer let you out to stretch your legs! ...and your tail.

[strikingblue]

[Kurt chuckles.]

You say dhat now. Dhen vhe get tossed in vith Logan...

[He swished his tail, pleased that it gets some recognition]

[shadowcatastrophe]

... [ she shivers. ] With anybody but Logan. [ a chuckle follows suit. ] His training is hazardous to my health. I can't even decide which is, like, the lesser of two evils. [ and that's saying something. stupid games! ]

[strikingblue]

It is sort of his element. Creating danger. Und throwing others at it.

Dhere is one thing I haf from dhe series sometimes. [Sometimes the writer let's him out with the holographic watch. Demonstration in 3...2...1...ta-da]

[fuzzyblue]

Hi Kitty, welcome to the space! What kind of stuff does your mun have planned for you?

[shadowcatastrophe]

Yeah, and, like, totally not knowing when to quit. [ she folds her arms, looks aside, and huffs indignantly. ]

Hn? [ she tilts her head, but then smiles when he changes. looking good, kurt, as always! ] Haha, that's awesome, Kurt. At least your writer isn't completely heartless.

[shadowcatastrophe]

Kurt! Hey! [ she gives him a smile. ] Thanks. This place is, like, super strange. She doesn't have anything set in stone yet, but apparently she may be sending me to one of those games... and the reviews aren't great... [ for games in general, that is. ]

[fuzzyblue]

Ja, you should be careful of those. I hear all kinds of crazy things can happen in them.

My mun sticks to the meme comms because she doesn't have time to devote to a game, but also, none of the premises appeal to her. Other people seem to enjoy them, though (muns, not those in their heads ....)

[shadowcatastrophe]

Yeah. [ she smiles weakly, if nothing else. ] I've heard the same kind of stuff. They sound like bad news, to be honest. I want to, like, avoid them, but I don't really seem to get a choice in the matter.

I totally understand. It's hard finding the right game. For them and for us. I guess. [ she's still learning. ] I just hope if I get put in one of them it's nothing something crazy.

[strikingblue]

[Sweeping bow to her, as he is still a showman in all his endeavors, before he flicks the watch off again.]

Vell, she likes a good story. [Which sometimes leads to heartbreaking threads, but never boring to read. Kurt puts up with it well.]

Vould you be interested in vone?

[fuzzyblue]

Even if it is, you'll be okay. You're strong. Providing you get to keep your powers, too, you should be able to protect yourself.

[shadowcatastrophe]

Well I am and X-Men. [ she smiles knowingly. ] B- But... yeah, I really hope I get to keep them. [ they're not as much of a curse as she'd originally thought them to be. ] I can't say I'm ready to give them up just yet.

So what have you been up to, huh! anything fun?

[shadowcatastrophe]

I can't say that I blame her! [ the next bit catches her off guard, but it's probably plainly obvious that, yes, she would like one. ] Are you serious! You can get me one? I've, like, always been a little curious about it and, ohman, this is going to be so cool!

[fuzzyblue]

Not a lot going on, I'm afraid. My mun has a lot of others in her head and we always have to wait our turn to come out. Your appearance caught her attention because our version was her favourite. Maybe I'll see you at bakerstreet or fortanon?

[strikingblue]

...vell you say dhat now...

[He ducks the invariable throwing of things with a grin.]

Vhe vill find someting and get back to you.
