Welcome to Gaia! ::

"I'd say camping," Jacen said while still getting stitched up. The wound on his shoulder was sealed and bandaged already, but the cut on his stomach still needed tending to. But he didn't mind letting Elisabeth getting her wounds treated first. "Or maybe the beach...I'm non-complacent, but...I'd be in agreement that a vacation is long overdue."

"Ok. Your turn, Jacen," McCoy said as Elisabeth gingerly walked past him and sat in his seat. With his good hand, he removed the cloak from around his shoulders, and tossed it to the ground. He thought he heard a sigh of relief from everyone in the room when he finally took that thing off. It was almost a grim reminder of what they'd just gone through. Carefully, he peeled his shirt off and sat down to get tended to.

He didn't say much to anyone. And he was surprised no one asked him about the older couple that was riding on the Jet with them and were now at the Institute for the time being. The only audible sounds he made were a couple of groans or winces was McCoy dug the suturing needle into Jacen's abdomen. "Careful, Mr. McCoy....," Jacen said quietly.

"I'm sorry, but this cut is rather bad right now, and I have to get in like this to ensure it stays closed," McCoy said while still tugging on the suture. Kim looked over to Jacen when he winced the last time, and he noticed her staring at him a bit. She had to have noticed his appearance. A majority of the small, yet abundant scars on his body were gone, and he had increased a bit in muscle mass it seemed. Probably another 'perk' of Apocalypse's tampering. Just thinking about that, and privately dealing with the loss of his friend...it started to drag his mood down a bit.

Apparently, Kim had also noticed that because now she was sitting by him holding his hand. Being the emotion manipulator, it was hard for Kim not to 'assist' Jacen in feeling better, even more so when he requested for her not to do so. And he knew she was going to ask what was wrong too, and when she did, he quietly said he'd tell her later.

"Ok, that's the last one," McCoy said, tossing a roll of bandages to Jacen. "I'm sure you can wrap that up yourself....or get someone else to assist you."

Jacen chuckled at that. He'd do it, but later. "Alright guys....whoever's next in line, it's your turn," he said while picking up the cloak on the floor. He was almost out of the room before he turned around to talk with the small gathering of friends. "If you guys are serious about this vacation, talk with me in a few hours. I'm gonna go relax for a bit." Then, he walked off towards his room.

Regina yawned, rubbing her sleep messed hair after she started awake from the loud bangs. "What the devil..." she muttered.

After the long trip back, where she had only half listened to Pietro babble on, she had cleaned up and transported some of her clothing and personal items into the room she had been assigned at the Brotherhood mansion. It appeared that they had picked up a couple more members for the team.

~Team. Ha...~ she thought, getting comfortable again after it didn't seem like there was any danger. ~We're nothing more than a group of Misfits that all have their own agendas... Maybe I should talk to john about that. I don't know what his idea is, but we should really start thinking like a team and not being against each other so much...~

With another yawn she went back to sleep.

Noko stared at him as if he had lost his mind. Giving him a WTF look she was suddenly bombarded with a purse. Whoa whoa there obsidian. hold up. ill be right there." she thought before turning back to john. " You honestly think im breaking up with you? Dumbass." She said shaking her head playfully. " I just need some girl time..im going out with obsidian. I figure if im not here to stop you..you wont get as mad as me. And i need to do some mega shopping." she said kissing him." I would never leave you ..baka. "

She only smiled more as she heard him blabber on. " hes so cute when he blabbers" she thought forgetting obsidian could hear her. " well be careful i promise. If i need you ..youll know it. Trust me on that." she said giving him another kiss before running off with obsidian.

Noko looked over at koko and teased." Can you read minds to?" She said with a laugh as she hopped into her jeep and started it up." Lets go girly!"

Noko looked over and raised her eyebrow at the group. Whistling for john to come over she waited till he was there." listen theres a new guy in the group." She said pointing out Ifrit " he needs taking care of. Dont kill him please????" She begged john before giving him another kiss. Once he walked off noko pulled the jeep up and grabbed regina yanking her in." comeon..shopping. Now" She said with a grin as she barely gave anyone the time to settle in before she took off.

Noko grinned as she looked at regina in the review mirror." Well were going shopping. We need the clothes and we figured what great time to pamper ourselves. Besides..i want a hair cut." she said.
