Zweiundzwanzig - [Action/Voice]

[When Kurt steps out of the tunnel today, he's relieved. It's kind of like being back home, if home was a place where you were at the mercy of scientists and bureaucrats and the subject of weird experiments. But it's got friends and family, so he's still relieved to be here. Not to mention having a sky over him again. It's kind of refreshing to actually be chilly! Although a little sore from two weeks of teleporting, he's content to make his way back home.

... where he'll find out Jubilee is gone. Not to mention that Melanie is still away. It's kind of a bummer on both count. But he keeps his chin high and remembers that he still has friends. Jubilee went back to the X-Men she belongs with, he's with the X-Men he belongs with, and he'll be ready the moment Melanie comes back.

After spending some time getting settled back into the X-House again, he goes out for the evening, looking for some fun to stimulate a Kurt who spent two weeks of fighting and boredom (and people staring at him like a freak). Good Spirits, Cloud Nine, and the Rec Center are all stops this evening for him. A successful mission completed deserves a little celebration, after all.

At some point, he pops open his journal to ask something he's been thinking about. From what he knows of Kotetsu and Pao-Lin's world, it almost seems to have 'mutants' like him. But unlike his world, they seem to have a better lot than mutants in his world do. After two weeks of being stared at like a freak, his own mutation is pretty heavy on his mind. Maybe other worlds are like this too?]


So a lot of us have powers, yeah? How many people were born with them... but only by accident? I don't mean like some kind of magical powers, but something totally random.

And... what do the people of your world think of that?

[And Kurt's remark gets her thinking about something she noticed while on the mission.]

What did you think about the other people being tested?
i_am_not_cute: (eh?)

[She pauses in the middle of sipping from her milkshake. That...hadn't been what she was asking about. So her train of thought gets temporarily derailed.]

Really?

[Indulging in her milkshake a little more. Now that she's not moping as much, her need to consume edible things is coming back to her.]

They, um...they didn't seem to be that good at fighting. At least not the ones I saw.

I guess so. They've probably got better fighters back home that just weren't taken for this mission or something.

[Which gets her thinking about something else.]

I wonder what their villages are like...I heard they don't have electricity like Luceti does.

[She just shrugs.]

Well, I kinda hope we get called for another one...it'd be nice to learn more about stuff outside of Luceti.
i_am_not_cute: (it'll be okay)

The ocean, huh? That does sound pretty cool! [She's never been out on a boat before.] What'd you have to do?

[IDK, Pao-Lin thinks that fighting off cultists sounds mildly interesting. Might be more exciting than Malnosso-sponsored combat simulation at any rate.]

What kind of cargo was it? Anything interesting there?

[personal profile] i_am_not_cute 2012-03-13 11:11 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yeah, that strikes Pao-Lin as suspicious too.]

Well, maybe one day we'll figure out what the other stuff is. [And hopefully they won't regret it.]
i_am_not_cute: (ewww)

[She grimaces.]

Ugh...I hope I never have to do anything like that. That just sounds gross. [It's not that she's never seen dead bodies before, or that she can't handle it. But it's never a pleasant experience.]
