{Let's say that everyone's done eating now, okies?}
Morgan had decided to start organizing the idea he'd had earlier, of having a mini-concert of some of him and some of the other students. He'd already changed back into something other than swimtrunks - a plain black t-shirt, and a pair of black jeans - and had set about finding out who would be willing to get onstage with him.
He was even willing to invite the Brotherhood members over if they felt like it, and would even let them participate in the mini-concert itself if they so chose.
"Hey, do any of you guys want to help out with a little something that I'm organizing?" Morgan asked, leaning over the fence.

Blair took the swimming trunks and began to walk back upstairs to his room. He called back down to Porter, 'Hey, thanks for letting me borrow these. Oh good, shops in town...I'll be sure to check them out."
Feeling somehow energized, Blair hustled up the stairs and went into his and Bobby's room to change. Reappearing a few moments later in swimming trunks that were black and red with white skulls coming down the sides.
"Not bad....maybe I need to gain some weight," he said looking down at his anti-fat of a body.
"Meh."
Blair rushed back down the stairs and climbed into the hot tub.
"So kids, what did I miss?"

Jacen heard what she said after she had kissed him. She shouldn't have done that? Jacen smirked a bit. This was....unexpected, but in a damn good way. He knew that he, himself, had feelings for Penance, but he wasn't in the know if it was reciprocated.....until now that was.
"Evelyn...," Jacen said quietly scooting down closer to her while she held her head in her hand. "I do appreciate what you've done to help us...honestly I do." He drew a breath from the corner's of his mouth, making a hissing sound.
"But honestly.....," Jacen stopped for a second, remembering just the other day when the thought he held a dying Penance in his arms. He remembered the pain he had felt...... "I could have killed you, Penance.....dammit, just thinking about you lying there bleeding out...."
"But you didn't kill me," she said without looking at him.
"No I didn't. And I have my.....my true friends to thank for that."
Penance looked at him out of the corner of her eye. It seemed she may be smiling at that, he wasn't sure. Either way, he stopped talking and looked down at her hunched over somewhat.
"Evelyn....Evie," Jacen said as he moved her hand away from her forehead and gently lifted her head up a bit to look into her eyes. Then, pure emotion must have taken over, because before he knew it, he was leaned in and giving her a kiss.
After he pulled away, he sat there smiling for a bit before he spoke up softly, "Again...I thank you....."

Danielle looked at the guy who just got in the hot tub. "I don't think I've met you. What's your name?" She asked him.

"Blair. I saw you....I was the lunatic psychic guy hurling things at people while you were trying to focus your water powers at Gen," he laughed.
"Well, it's funny now...it wasn't then. Hehe.."
He sunk down in the water and tried to relax.

Porter looked around for Regina but didn't immediately find her. Not that he knew what to do. It was late and students were everywhere. He just wanted twenty minutes alone with his girlfriend being that he hadn't had a date with anybody in more than it's right for any man...
He opened the front door and felt like he was being punished by God for his teenage years of villainry... because of course, Evelyn and Jacen were freaking making out on the front steps. Seriously, can a guy catch a break?
"Evelyn, have you seen Regina?" He asked just to be a bit spiteful for the moment. Okay, seriously, gotta stop picking up people's emotions. Who's being spiteful tonight that I've passed by? Goddamit. Aw how cute... she's feeling... dammit. dammit. dammit.
"No boss, can't say that I have," She sat back against the the railing, "I'll go find her if you want."
He declined the offer but went off muttering something about damn kids again.
"He needs to get laid," Penny said when Porter shut the door. She stood up and stretched her back and put her hand out to Jacen, "Come on, my dear, let's go find Mr. Porter's girlfriend."
"What's his deal anyway?" Jacen finished his beer. Penny picked them up and threw them on the side of the house.
She explained what she knew about him essentially being a recluse for years, "Kinda a cruel mutant kick in the a** I guess. He's well intentioned but he comes off wrong alot. Clashes with most of the teachers."
Penny yawned and wrapped her arm around Jacen's because she felt she could, "I think I'm calling it a night after we find Regina. I have to get up early."
"Why? It's vacation."
"You do not maintain such a great physique without busting your a** every other morning at sunup," She said sarcastically poking herself in the abs, "Being a mutant doesn't make you good at things automatically. I'm sure you're aware. I've trained too long and too hard to get out of routine."
"Still think you're crazy."
"Well, I'm not arguing with that," She smiled.

"I mean, I wouldn't know...I rarely train, and I'm in relatively the same shape I've always been in," Jacen commented. He took note that Evelyn had her arm entwined with his. For whatever reason, he rested his other hand on hers.
"Seriously?," Penance asked.
"I tend not to lie, darlin'," Jacen said, actually loosening up a bit. "And yea, I don't train that much anymore. Maybe I should. I mean, it does seem like I get winded too often...."
"Cause you smoke."
"Cause I smoke," Jacen repeated. "So, we're off to find your friend, Regina?" Penance nodded. "And she won't be freaked out seeing us arm-in-arm?"
"Not freaked," Penance said with a hint of embarrassment in her voice, "But I'll be teased to no end."
"Typical teenager stuff."
"Yea...."
On that same token, he wondered that if any of the Brotherhood that knew Jacen would be upset seeing them two together. Of course, Pietro said that if Jacen joined the X-Men, execution order 151 would be in effect. And as far as Jacen was concerned, he was not joining the X-Men.
"Anyways, let's find your friend."

(((Gosh...I was gone for 24 hours and there's 5 more pages since my last Rp *faints* you guys are killing me... crying ...)))
Just as Victoria was about to take another sip of Crystal all Hell broke loose. The speed demon ended in a cat-fight with Sasha, the flamy John dude started n**-picking with someone else and truck loads more s**t happened within the space of ten mintues. Although the pranks pulled were juvinile and down right nasty at points, she found it disturbing and enjoyable at the same time. Sort of like a carwreck...you want to, but just can't look away.
Since she was the only one left in darkened area of the hot-tub she pulled on a pair of demin short shorts over her bathing suit and walked in the general direction of her teamates. Hearing the familer boyish chuckle, she came across John and the speed demon showing off a bag of party pranks. Not wanting to be left out again, she walked up to them defiantly, hands on her hips. "Seem's like you boys are up to some serious pranking," she said slyly with a hint of eagerness in her voice, "don't ya think ya need some back-up?" She giggled softly and wondering if they were too zonkered to pick up on the hint.

OOC: Anybody have any objections if we move onto day 2? It's been day 1 for several days.
IC:
"Even fighting the big fights, we're still only 18ish," Penny smiled as they stepped into the backyard chaos. For some reason their grill was half blackened and she figured that was probably Pyro's doing for god knows what reason.
She strolled over to the hot tub with Jacen and leaned on the side, "Hey guys, have you seen Regina?"
They all answered no or 'not since dinner' or some various thing. She nodded, "Okay, if you see her before me, tell her Porter is looking for her. I'm going to sleep. See you all in the morning."
They walked inside and passed Porter in the kitchen working on his laptop. He nodded acknowledging their presence but didn't say anything. Penny shrugged and headed up the stairs after making a sweep of the bottom floor. The light was on in their room so she pretty much figured that was where Regina was.
"He's losing it," Penny muttered and could smell the shower steam on the air which gave her inclination as to where Regina had been, "Okay, I'm going to sleep." Feeling much more comfortable with Jacen than she did twenty minutes prior, she brushed his hair away from his eyes and then kissed him good night.
Shutting the door behind her, Regina looked up from her bed in surprise. Penny leaned agains the door, "Damn he's so cute in that outlaw, Remy LeBeau Colin Farrell James Dean kinda way."
"What?!" Regina just about dropped her brush to furthur her exclaimation.
"Oh I've got a story for you," Penny flopping onto her back in bed. She took her shorts off and climbed under the sheets telling Regina the story of her evening just before passing out into a dead sleep for the night.

There was a candle lit in Sasha's room since the power of the beach house was still out. "Perhaps I should join the brotherhood mutants," said Sonya,"Then you and I can work together."
Sasha looked at her. "No, you wouldn't be able to handle it," she assured, "One of the main things to be a brotherhood member is not having fear to use your powers. I think it's a good idea that you stay with those x-men people. They seem pretty nice."
"Then, you should come over and join my group then."
"Sonya, please." Sonya stopped. "I'm sorry," began Sasha, "I know of the relationship you and I had but that doesn't matter that much now. You and I grew in our seperate paths. And there's no combining them. Please understand this."
Sonya looked down, looking hurt. Sasha tilted her chin up. "Besides, you need to grow up on your own now. You will be an adult soon, so start acting like one."
"Act like an adult?' questioned Sonya.
"Yeah like get mean, don't let people push you around, and go party with people."
"But mother says I shouldn't do those things," corrected Sonya.
"And that's another reason why I can't hang out with you, if you're going to still be listening to what your mother says at 17. Anyways go back to your beach house. It will be morning soon."
With one last hug Sonya left Sasha upstairs. Unable to see, Sonya held up her finger and a soft yellow glow emersed, illuminating the way for her. She hoped she wouldn't run into any of the other members of the brotherhood or they may discover she cause their black out.

Jacen walked around the back of the house when Penance went inside to go sleep. Now, instead of feeling uptight and too wrapped up in himself, he found that he was relieved that he had gotten what he had wanted to off of his chest. Still grinning somewhat, Jacen noticed alot of the younger students horsing around in the hot tub. Just having fun, was this not what this vacation was about?
He took a quick look inside and saw that Porter seemed rather involved in his work, whatever that may have been. Jacen didn't pay much mind though. He saw something that was definitely up his alley. A solitary acoustic guitar sat out on the back deck. Apparently someone had found it, and wanted SOMEONE to play.
"Only for a bit," Jacen said as he sat down on the deck cross-legged and proceeded to finger through a few of the old passages he knew way back. He didn't do too bad, but there was definitely room for improvement. Again, he tried to play a few things, but it was coming out rather messy like.
"This...may take some time......time that I don't have right now," Jacen said as he spun the guitar in his left hand before stopping it dead in it's tracks and slinging it over his shoulder. With that, he walked inside and said a quick 'What's up?' to Porter as he was still horsing around on his computer. Jacen was completely ready for bed, and beer in his system agreed with him entirely.
"Going to sleep, I'm assuming?," Porter asked.
"Yea.....it's too late for me...plus I'm still whupped from the flight here. I'll catch everyone tomorrow," Jacen said as he walked around and found the room he shared with Porter. As he walked in, he set the guitar on the right side of the door without bothering to turn the light on. As he noted earlier, he found it easier now to see in pitch dark than it had ever been before. When he hit his bed, he found himself lying there just staring at the ceiling before, eventually, sleep took hold and he was off in a vast dreamworld.

-the next day, since it seems everyone has gone off to dream land-
Regina awoke to a bright afternoon sun. She had no idea what time they had actually gone to bed last night but she new it was at least noon by the light's tint. She groaned softly and stretched.
Penny laughed from the other bed, evidently having woken up just before her. "Good dream?" she teased.
"Noooo, I didn't think about that thanks." Regina stuck her tongue out at Penny. "Just glad to have been able to sleep past 8am for a change... Didn't you plan on waking up early to train or something?"
"Yeah... I got up at 6... and fell right back to sleep. Whoops." Penny shrugged, sitting up in bed now. "We've got two weeks if I do decide to."
"Good outlook." Regina sighed and sat up. "Guess tis time to start the day."
Gen woke up from a rather disturbing nightmare. It had involved her killing another mutant... She didn't remember doing that while under Ahab's control, but she knew she had the strength to now. Getting up quietly so as not to disturb Teagan, she dressed in some comfortable clothes and headed to the beach to think.

It would probably take a couple of days to organize what Morgan had in mind, so he was going to spend the afternoon getting things together. He still had to find a drummer, and a singer, and maybe another guitarist. This is going to be a tough one to pull off, but I think I'm up to it, he thought to himself.
So, he decided to place a notice on the fridge in the kitchen to anyone interested. It told people to speak with him if they wanted to help out, and also told them what positions needed to be filled. He could try to sing for a few songs, but he would rather have someone else do that, since he was going to be co-ordinating, and playing guitar.

ooc: oook so next day ._. day two of beachhouse
It was in the morning hours still when giggling could be heard from outside. The sound of noko and corky still laughing it up and having fun even though they just had arrived home. They sat out in the sand laughing about the fun they had at various clubs that night. They had hit about everyone of them there. Noko had even convinced her to go into a goth club and it seemed she had fun at least to noko. Though they had spent the night drinking anyways so it didnt seem to matter. Thanks to nokos shifting ability theyre outfits changed per the club they were going to. At the moment the girls were already on the beach nursing coffee. " what a night. " she grinned and shook her head. " Wonder if the house is even awake yet. " she said slightly amused at the fact that they hadnt even slept yet.
