Welcome to Gaia! ::

Caitlin sat down. It was more of slump than sitting, the one movemnt happening in a split second. Despite the believed shocked reaction, rage was easily seen radiating from every pore around her.

"Are they insane?" Her voice was quiet and calm, steady even, but the rage was there. "Mutants and Humans are not some game to be played or things to be move around like pawns! Neither man is right..." She looked away from William then, clearly in thought. Her eyes seemed to find a piece of railway in the subway tunnel and focus in on it.

"Both, however, have valid points," she said, "but they are small and subtle. Mutant survival will not happen if war is an outcome but equality will not succeed without action." She looked at him then, "This is something that can be forced. Both clearly think that they can make their wants a reality by ignoring or overlooking the consequences! They are there, blantly so."

"They can't," she shook her head violents at the notion,"For a person to create dramatic change like this, they must be able to accept the other outcomes and possibly of failure, whether that is evident or unknown. Nothing is certain or exact in anything. Neither one of them are willing to think on what will happen if they are wrong and different outcome comes to reality. Both will continue to do as they believe, believing the harder they try the better the next outcome would be. It would be like pouring gas on a already raging fire..."

"What is your want," asked Caitlin, "You have not told me your feelings?"

Caitlin nearly did a face plant from his last few words. Follow her? Why?

"Why would you follow me? Nevermind," she said shaking her head. I did not matter to the situation. "Sadly," she started, "Everything and everyone affects any individual, how much depends on the individual. However, there are other choices. One things I have learned, there is always a choice to choose."

"Why would you want to follow me then," she said a bit confused, "I am by far not the perfect example having someone wanting to follow me around. I do have a bit of hectic and danger life to me, you have experience some of it. You are better off elsewhere."

He had said he did not want conflict or war. He would get that with being around her. She had old b*****d from the lake trying to find her. She had memory problems from her mickery power activating. Her personalities were greatly better but they still lashed out making her from comfortable to be around. She wasn't exactly someone who knew how to react to constant social activities. So why follow her, he would be better of on he own? He did say he wanted a family.

That thought made her violently look away from him as a memory forced its way into her mind. She doubt she could even have children, if she wanted too. She was thinking in general, not with William in mind.

((Remember she is still clueless to William liking her. She really doesn't even know what love means due to never experiencing it, seeing it, or of hearing the word until recently.))

"Fine, your decision. Not matter how, ...dumb, it might be."

She looked back to him, smiling now, "We have the right and freedom to choose. So my choice, is never the Professor's or Erik's. It is my own. I don't know where it will take me, and you apparently, but we shall see what comes of it.."

Could she promises him that? She didn't honestly know. She never really had much of a choice in that matter, and her she was saying everyone had a choice in everything. She sounded so...well, she couldn't think of the word. Still, there were many other factors to considered when those times came up.

"William," she said softly, "I will have to get back to you on that one."

"You brought us here," said Caitlin, "Remember?"


((Short...but, that is about all I have to say for this round))
