"What about me not bein' the only healing mutant?" Came Wolverine's voice as he walked over to everyone else, carrying Jodie over his shoulder. "Ooooooooooh....stop the motion already. I'm still dizzy...."
"Well, that ain't my fault kid. But I swear, if you throw up on my clothes, I'll make ya clean the X-Jet for a week." Jodie thought about his words for a second, then answered with another question. "What the hell is the X-Jet?"

"Hey Logan, good to see you again."
Wolverine grunted. "I see you found your way back."
"I was just saying that most powers can be found more than once, like how your not the only one who heals and such. By the way, who's that?" He said, motioning a shoulder towards the person draped over Logan's shoulder.

"I'm Jodie...wait a sec, didn't I meet you earlier? With Ruka? In the smelly sewer?....Or....was it someone else? Meh." She tried to crane her neck to look, but then winced. She hadn't needed many stitches in the back of the neck, but there was enough for it to hurt...alot. Wolverine grunted and literally tossed her around on his shoulder. She of course screamed "HOLY CRAP!! DON'T DO THAT!"

ooc: thats perfectly fine penance 3nodding
also, i decided to change the spelling of my name back to Lindsey, I wanted a more normal name for my character XP
and if this means anything, i would love to bring back AoA if anyone would actually be interested, if not thats cool
ic: the sight of Jacen pacing around the kitchen multitasking everything he possibly could was a pretty fun sight to see, especially for the recent mood in the air.
"Hi guys." Lindsey said a little less enthusiastically than normal, feeling excessivly sympathetic for Phenix. Lindsey knew she would go crazy if something like that had happened to her... then again, she had no idea when she would ever see Carson again.
Best for the both of us to just let go.
"Ow, hey!" Phenix turned her head to Lindsey, who had been squeezing her shoulder a little tight.
"Sorry hun, my bad. Do I get a steak too?"
"Yeah sure," Jacen almost reluctantly replied, and Lindsey grinned. She'd been starving all day, and something about the taste and scent of red meat against her tongue had sent her into something of an internal frenzy.
"But I refuse to use a fork and knife, I'm too hungry to eat by your standards out of politeness."

OOC: Hmm I think that I would like to combine DoFP and AoA into a single alternate future, simply because I like them both, but to have them both exist at once is kind of redundant. And I'm all about restarting such things, so send me your ideas via PM or AIM, and in the middle of next week (when most people are done with finals) I'll start working on a new thread.

"Sniff sniff, sniff sniff. Hmmmm, smells good. Think I'll steal one offa ya Kid." Wolverine said as he sat down in a chair and pulled out a newspaper, as if this were a normal day or something. After scanning through the headlines, he looked back at Jodie. "I guess you should give her something too-" "I want a cookie." She cut him off quickly. "Me lost blood...cookie....and juice....mmmmm." She started gnawing on her bottom lip and Wolverine got up, got a cookie, and popped it in her mouth.
"Stupid kid...she should've known her limits beforehand. Yeesh." He said as he went back to the newspaper in his chair.

"The physicist is German," Jacen said while dishing out everyone's meals, "I can't really remember his name, and I'm not sure if anyone else has heard of him. Give me a minute."
And so he set about getting everything situated for eating. He thought he had to have looked quite silly trying to do everything with one good arm, but thankfully he had a bit of help from Phenix.
"Everyone got their meals?" He heard a resounding affirmation from the congregation. "Alright, let's dig in folks."
It was too late though. Everyone at the table had already started to cut into their steaks before he could say the word, which made Jacen chuckle a bit. Feeling at ease, Jacen slipped into his chair and carefully started to cut his steak up. It took him a few tries and a moving plate, but he was able to cut up the meat. Unfortunately with his right arm casted up, he couldn't do even that very well. He had heard a few chuckles from people and he knew he had gotten a weird look from Wolverine, but he didn't care. He was hungry enough to subjugate himself like this.
It seemed everyone was enjoying their meals, which was good. Jacen actually did enjoy cooking and when people enjoy the food, especially his friends, it always gave him a sense of fulfillment. Being off in his own little world, topped by the chatter around the table, Jacen found himself drifting off as he munched on his dinner. Then, out of the blue, it hit Jacen like a truck.
"ACK!," Jacen choked out, nearly choking on a piece of steak, "I think I remember that scientist's name, Phenix." She looked and listened to him intently. "His name is Dr. Weiss. Herbert Weiss. Though his space-time continuum theories weren't what sparked my interest in the article, that was only casually mentioned. He was doing some really interesting things with Gauss energy, possibly even developing weapons for the military."
Jacen took a quick drink of the water he brought with him to the table before speaking up with a smile. "Of course, I'm up for this idea of convincing Kurt to help us. It's always fun watching Lindsey make him squirm."

Phenix looked around the table and then at Jamie, "If you haven't guessed already, this is our monthly session of '1001 Ways to Get Expelled from the Institute'." This let the seasons veterans at this stuff give a few chuckles. They all have gotten into their share of mischeif.
"Well, I'd rather keep this in house before exploring the physisist option. Outsourcing our problems have led us to troubles before," Phenix was hoping that their effots weren't going to lead them to a dead end.
She looked at Lindsey, "Care to make Kurt squirm?"
Jamie then asked, "What do you think we'll find there? In Limbo? If we get there..."
Phenix shrugged, "Fighting. Alot of big ugly things fighting. I can't believe that either of them are dead... but I think that somebody or something sealed off the main portal that Illyana uses to get back here... and whatever happened was so important that they didn't use another one to come back. Limbo is like a bad middle ages movie that take place in large extensive caves.... with lots of castles, lots of stupidity, and lots of back stabbing."
"Why would Illlyana want to stay there?" Lindsey asked.
"So these big uglies don't use the portals to go to different worlds and try to take over... If it were up to me, I'd find a way to shut down all their portals so they can stay in their world and leave the rest alone."

OOC: OK, I'm bringing us home. We brotherhood have been lackin' lately :p If you still have stuff you wanna finish up in New Orleans, finish it up and just pretend you didn't come home with Pietro.
IC: Pietro kicked open the door to the Brotherhood House, smiling inwardly as he remembered all the stolen goods he'd managed to transport to the house before those stupid robot things attacked. He immediately set about redecorating the mansion, making it look more like a palace than the "Real-World" setup that had been around when the Brotherhood was on TV.
"Hmm... I wonder whatever did happen to Warren..." Pietro thought to himself, going about his work in all his metrosexual glory.

"Is there a reason we can't try to do that? Or, would Illyana be completely against it? I've never met her, but if she's anything like-" Jamie broke off suddenly, realizing that mentioning Piotr probably wasn't the best idea. "Well, I mean, is there a reason why she wouldn't want to try to shut the portals?"

"If we close all of the portals from this side, without telling her, she and Piotr and any other non-Limbo people will be stuck there forever. I couldn't live with myself if we made that choice."
Phenix looked around the table, "I'm for trying to get Kurt to agree to let Forge figure out how to shift his teleporting to Limbo. You guys with me on this?"

"I'm all for danglin Kurt out like a worm on a hook," Jacen said while looking at the cast on his arm. "I don't know how much help I can be though if we can actually get in there though."
Jacen didn't have to say a word, all he did was hold his casted arm up and knocked on it a couple of times. "This is still fresh. I'm surprised I was able to cook this for y'all." Naturally, Jacen quieted down after speaking for only a scant moment. He found it best sometimes to be an observer, and not in the middle of everything. And almost on cue, his personal reverent silence was shattered by the clamorings of a very annoyed young woman.
"I THOUGHT you were going to get me when you cooked those," Kitty said looking quite irritated.
"I figured you could have put two and two together when you saw people moving towards the kitchen," Jacen said with a smirk, "And besides, you should have been able to smell the food cooking." Kitty didn't seem to happy when Jacen said those remarks, but she got her plate anyways and sat down with the crew at the table. Again, Jacen sunk into his silence for a few moments until he was disturbed once more.
Jacen felt very lucid as everyone was racking their brains trying to figure this puzzle out. He felt so lucid that he nearly fell asleep in his chair. That was until Kim woke him up with a small hug before she sat next to him. "Hey hon," Jacen said meekly, the onset of sleep twinging his voice a bit, "There's food on the stove if your hungry." Waking up for a brief moment, Jacen looked around at everyone still eating or just having a time. Unrest was catching up to Jacen severely. It was only a matter of minutes after Kim had sat next to him, he had fallen into yet another light sleep.
