in which kitty is sick of sitting on the sidelines

[kittyhawk]

So, what's the plan now, genius?

*BAMF*

[Kurt appearing nearby, hanging upside down.]

You come out to play?

[kittyhawk]

[It's their Spider-Man moment, but without all the awkward rain-kissing. Kitty smiles at her friend, reaching out to tap her finger to the tip of his nose.] That's the plan, Elf.

[strikingblue]

[Her nose tap earns a white toothed smile across his dark blue face.]

Das ist gut. [He hops down easily, righting himself to perch on a table.] Vhere do vhe go from here?

[He's assuming he gets to come with.]

[kittyhawk]

[Why wouldn't he get to come along? New adventures are always so much better when they are shared with friends.

Without thinking, she moves toward the table, crossing her arms over her chest and just sighs. That question again.]

That's... that's the part I'm still figuring out. The typist has no interest in Brian Bendis' weird obsession with me, so the whole Star-Lady thing is out, which means we're kind of at a crossroads. You know, me, though. I like being useful... and right now I am feeling anything but.

[strikingblue]

Ahhh.

[He settles crosslegged on the table to talk with her.]

Perhaps to start over is dhe answer? Play someting from dhe beginning? My writer, she vings it most of dhe time. Not knowing dhe comic books.

[kittyhawk]

Speaking from experience? They're often more trouble than they're worth, but trust me, I've tried that one, too. Well, trying. I just haven't figured out what to do or where to go, y'know?

[strikingblue]

Ah, you know me. I disappear here und appear dhere. Go vhere you vant.

[talk_to_you]

I thought making stuff up as you go was your usual style, Kitty.

[kittyhawk]

I'll figure it out eventually. Don't you worry about me, Kurt, I'm pretty dang tough.

[kittyhawk]

Yeah, well, guess how well that's been working out for me lately.

[bloodandbubblegum]

Being stuck on the sidelines sucks.

That wasn't a vampire pun, I swear.

[talk_to_you]

Hmm... Using my incredible powers of interpretation and the fact that I've known you since practically forever... I'm gonna go with "not good"?

[kittyhawk]

Bingo! You win a prize! Or, I mean, you would if I had one to give. I think I might have some gummi bears in my purse, but I can't tell you how long they've been in there...

I'll figure it out eventually, though. Just got to figure out what my next, big adventure should be.

[kittyhawk]

[Snort.] You sure it wasn't a vampire pun?

[talk_to_you]

Are you still getting married to the space-guy? Because that sounds like a pretty big adventure.

[asongwithin]

I'm betting there are a lot more kids who could use some guidance.

[kittyhawk]

Tried it for a hot second, quickly decided it probably wasn't for me. Not to mention the fact that someone felt it was better as a little fling to get back into the dating game after I broke up with Bobby, but not necessarily something long-term. [Typist is a sucker for Piotr/Kitty and, occasionally, Kitty/ALL THE GIRLS, what can we say? Suck it, Bendis!]

[kittyhawk]

I am pretty good with the kids. [Big, cheesy grin and all. Kitty realizes her stint as Professor K could have gone better, but no one died, right? Right? Only lost Scott for, like, 45 seconds!]

[asongwithin]

[They're X-Men. She should get an award for that track record.]

You really are.

...Our lives aren't safe. But you can make them feel that way.

[strikingblue]

Dhe toughest. You scare me. [He's teasing, of course.]

[talk_to_you]

Nothing wrong with that. I think all our muses have taken a few pot shots at continuity now and then.

[newartistx]

Sometimes, plans can be good?

[digthefuzz]

A plan? I've never heard of such a thing!
