[evolv]

Hey man, don't worry too much about the slang, alright? You can figure that part out. Plus, you got friends who'll want to help you with everything. This is going to be an easy ride.

Yeah, you keep believin' I don't die. Whatever makes you happy.

Comments

[violenthearted]

Nice to see you in one piece.

[evolv]

Ha ha, man. Ha ha.

[violenthearted]

[No one appreciates Erik's sense of humor. Because it's terrible.] I was being more figurative than literal. It'll be good to have you on the team again.

[As far as Erik is concerned they were always going to be a team, even after he'd felt the missiles. They'd face this new threat together, united as mutants.]

[evolv]

I've got a lot of catching up to do. The rest of y'all got a head start.

[tolaywaste]

Yeah, it seems like they all want to believe that.

[evolv]

Hey I do too. No way I want to be dead, but it's hard to argue against it.

[tolaywaste]

I noticed.

Good to see you, though. Whatever this is.

[evolv]

Yeah man, you too. It's good to know it all end up alright for everybody. [Except Raven and Angel, but let's not focus on the negative.]

[tolaywaste]

Alive is good enough, I guess.

[evolv]

Yeah, I'd say so.

[unwheeled]

Well. You have been missed, without question.

[evolv]

Hey, Professor X himself! How's it hangin'?

[unwheeled]

It's, ah...it's interesting. It would be good to see another familiar face.

[evolv]

Yeah, it's good to be seeing any faces at all, far as I'm concerned.

[unwheeled]

Did the one writing decide if you'll be alive or...not?

[evolv]

She's thinking about it. Leaning towards surviving, I think. She seems to think there's no point to my abilities if some damn cat like Shaw can kill me so easy.

[unwheeled]

To be honest Shaw is a very rare case and I'm rather hoping not to encounter anyone like him again.

Also the idea of you being not alive is rather unsettling to me personally.

[evolv]

Man, I'm touched. Never knew you were so sentimental.

[unwheeled]

I suppose that's one way of putting it.

[evolv]

How would you put it different?

[unwheeled]

To call the feeling merely sentiment seems to cheapen it somehow. Nostalgia isn't a strong enough term for that regret.

[evolv]

I guess that's what this place is for. To fix things.

[the2ndthing]

As one of the should-be-deads to another? It's really not that bad.

[evolv]

What, the being dead part? 'Cause I gotta say, I prefer being alive.

[the2ndthing]

I meant the not-being-dead when everyone else says you should be. I mean, don't get me wrong, it's kind of a weird place to be, but it's not a bad one.

[evolv]

That's true.

Where you from, sugar?

[the2ndthing]

Ran away from Fort Wayne, Indiana a long time ago. Not really from anywhere, since.

Name's Rocket.

[evolv]

Well it's a pleasure to meet you, Rocket. Call me Darwin.

[the2ndthing]

Darwin. Like the guy with the monkeys? The Santa Claus beard?

[evolv]

Not exactly like, but yeah, that's the idea.

[the2ndthing]

Any reason why? I mean, everybody's name means something, right? Even if it's just to them.

[shamefree]

The hardest part of being hip's to make it look easy, cat.

[evolv]

Yet here you are doin' exactly that.

[Don't think he's forgotten what you did.]

[graffiti_magic]

You died in your canon?

O HAI MOUSE

[evolv]

Yeah, and what if I did?

O HAI

[graffiti_magic]

Hang on a second. I wasn't going to tease you for it or make any rude comments. I was horrified to hear it and wanted to offer my sympathies.

[evolv]

Alright. Thanks, I guess.

[graffiti_magic]

It's a shame it happened. My mun says you were her favorite character in the movie.

[evolv]

Yeah, guess I must've been my mun's favorite too. Hah.

[graffiti_magic]

Well, your ability is pretty amazing. That might be part of it.

[evolv]

Why thank you.

Now I gotta ask, what is it you can do? My mun knows a little from what your mun's said, but she doesn't know your canon so well.

[graffiti_magic]

Nothing exciting. [Lies.] I can see and hear into Limbo. It's useful. I can't exactly go in, myself, but with what I can do I'm able to guide my friends through.

[She can also see demons but most people think she's nuts when she tells them that much.]

[evolv]

Limbo, like, purgatory? That's pretty special. [Considering he's never been very religious and didn't entirely believe in heaven/hell/limbo before now.]

[graffiti_magic]

Something like that. I could see into it.

Here. Picture it like this. It's a dimension on top of the real world. Kind of like...looking at a jello mold with different layers. Pretend you're looking at it from above. One red layer, one green.

Green is the real world. Limbo is on top and there are spots where they touch and spots where they mix. Right in the middle.

That's Limbo and our reality. I can see it and the real world and I can interact with people in Limbo. I act as a guide.

..that was a bad metaphor. I don't even like jello.

[evolv]

Jello's cool. Jello's groovy. And I think I get what you're saying now.

[stagenameangel]

It's good to know I'm not the only one who's got to deal with pretending.

[evolv]

No, you only got to deal with Shaw and his crazy ass sidekicks.

[stagenameangel]

[ Yeah, she may or may not be avoiding eye contact. ]

Yeah, well, someone's got to look out for number one.

[evolv]

Never mind me, then, over here looking out for the rest of 'em.
