Pandora looked down at the cat when the words went through her mind, picking him up so he was infront of her face, her eyes wide she whispered, "There are mutant cats and other animals too!!!" She put him back down, "A cat that can...." Going back to normal voice, "Wait a minute. Not a mutant cat but a human who can turn IN TO a cat." She stood up from where she was sitting and stared at the cat, "You sat there while I petted you and didn't say anything! YOU" pointing at Mr. Catz, "Rubbed on my chest!" She covered herself protectively, "Mr. Catz how could you!!! And that's not your name! It's so cute though!!! And why did you have to be such a cute kitty!."
Luna didn't say anything because she really didn't know what to say. Her parents never found out about her powers, so she couldn't relate. Opening and closing her mouth like a fish, trying to think of words to console him, she realized that she hadn't gone through anything like him. She was a vampire, born and lived that way, along with being a mutant. She didn't sleep like normal humans and in reality, normal mutants. Putting her head down, she muttered, "Your probably tired Cole. You need to get some sleep." She heard Cole's father moving around and writing something because of her stupid vampire hearing. She'd make a note to take the, most likely, picture to his room later.
Kat woke up to Luke's yelling. Her face was still red from the crying she'd done not too long ago but she didn't notice nor care. She walked to the door, whipped it open, and yelled at Luke, "OI! I'M TRYING TO BE DEPRESSED HERE AND YOUR BEING NOISY!" She slammed the door behind her and started to full the bathtub with hot water, bath salts, bath oils, and bubble bath.

Just as Kat's door slammed shut again, a snow ball hit the door. It was a little more complicated then making straight ice, but Luke had managed to learn to make quick snow balls when he felt the need. Still agitated himself, Kat would find her bath water was below freezing without having actually frozen. It was yet another thing Luke had worked on, though that was just so he could throw water balloons at people in the summer without nailing them with a block of ice.
"You're heading straight for the ile on foot fungus. So unless you want people getting ideas about the condition of your feet, I'd suggest you turn around" Xavier said, leaning on one of the bookcases as he spoke to circuit. Then he brought up the incident that had occurred earlier in the day "No idea. Something about someone going missing..." Xavier said casually, cleaning his ear with his pinky as he spoke "Honestly I didn't really care, and still don't. All's I know is it was actually quiet around here for a few hours."

Wrinkling her nose, "Humans are disgusting." While she was one herself anyone who knew her probably wouldn't be surprised if Circuit walked out one day and declared she made herself a cyborg. Turning back around to head in his direction, "It was actually quiet?" she asked not caring about the missing person, "That could be worth looking into. Anything that gives this place enough silence to think could be worth repeating." It was to bad he didn't know, or wouldn't admit to knowing the cause to be able to turn off the alarm system and not hear anyone scream for at least 10 minutes would be nice. Of course depending on how permanently quiet she wanted it she could make some phone calls but there was always the chance the government was still pissed at her for not sharing. Leaning against the book shelf she crossed her arms as she thought.

Ayan smiled. "'Spazo?'" she laughed. She stuck out her hand. "I'm Ayan Brookes," she said with a grin.
"I've been at the school for a couple years now, and I still haven't really memorized where things are," she admitted. "This place is just too big for me, and I haven't really gotten used to the other people here."

((I'm really sorry for being so slow to post. I will be unable to post until monday or tuesday due to holiday matters. Thank you for the patience))
Teddy gave another frustrated noise and held out her paper for him to read. She was thouroughly embarased not to mention upset at her lack of navigation, so she didn't really trust her voice. Eyes on the ground, she waited for him to answer and prayed she wasn't smoking again.

BJ grinned, "Ya I am horrible with names sometimes plus he was spaz." Shrugging her shoulders at the small lie. Hearing the girl had been there a couple of years was odd. Being anywhere a couple of years tended to get on her nerves, or at least the people did no matter how nice a place it was. "I can take you down to the office, my navigation skills are pretty set. I'm BJ by the way." She didn't bother offering her last name. Doing the right thing and helping someone was a nuisance sometimes. She was set to make a path in the mountains but she figured a few extra minutes wouldn't hurt anything. If she had been wearing longer pants instead of the short cut off jeans and hiking boots she would have hid the out of place gloves in her pockets, but that was life. She lied a lot but being good at it had never come easy and short term lies were easier than ones that made since.

kat stripped down and went to get in her hot bath just to find out that it was now cold. Growling loudly she threw a towel around her body and walked out the door, "SCREW YOU TOO LUKE!" She slammed the door again and emptied the water, <******** it. I'll go to the hot springs for a bath." Walking back out the door, clothes in a bag around her shoulder and towel still on her body. She started off for the hot springs but changed her mind and went to the pool instead. There was no one there so Kat put her bag and towel down on a chair and dove in to the deep end.
She wasn't too worried about getting clean she just wanted to relax, but here she couldn't just float on the water so she swam to one on the sides, using the wall to cover her, and put her head on the floor, "Maybe I should run away and help the humans. They are kind of weird and mean but if I work it right I could help them without having to worry.. but then they would finish the job and I'd be useless so I'd probably be killed or something worse." Sighing she closed her eyes and felt the water jet against her stomach, "Decisions decisions."

Cole let out a frustrated sigh, looking down to the floor. He felt a bit overwhelmed by everything all of a sudden and didn't want to take it out on Luna.
"I'm sorry...." he mumbled after a moment, his voice barely audible, even to himself. He stared at the floor for another few moments before rolling his head around his neck and looking back up to Luna.
"Yeah, you're probably right...." he replied, bringing his hand up to push away a stray bit of hair. "Don't worry yourself about any of this. I don't know if you would, but....just forget about it, kay?"
At that, he took a step closer to her and placed his hand lightly on her shoulder for a short moment before hugging her.
"Thank you, though," he whispered. Damian's ears drooped once more as he stared up at Evening. He had sat himself down on the ground once she had placed him there, wondering how long it would take her to get used to this new information.
'I'm sorry!' he replied to everything she had said. 'I only wanted the attention! Whenever people know that I'm partly human, they think it's weird and don't treat me like a cat anymore. But I'm still part cat! I like being petted! And I didn't want to tell you for fear that you might....leave me alone again....' ((That's alright. I've been busy too. Having your birthday right after Christmas doesn't help much with being busy.))
Logan smiled again as he took a look at her paper. He stared at it for a few short moments before glancing up at the doors. His eyes scanned the number before he quickly deducted where her room must be.
"This way," he said, pointing as he began to move in that direction.
It only took a few more moments before he came to a door with a small '10' marked on the door.
"I believe this is it?" he asked, stopping next to it.

"Cool," Ayan said. She glanced down the hall. "Jeez, this place is big..." She heard voices down the corridor, and her fingers flew quickly to her right ear. Worriedly, she brushed the top, checking for a point. Nope. Her ears were as dull as a human's. She grimaced. She thought it was ridiculous that, even here, she had to hide her identity. She was sent here so that she could fit in, for goodness' sake! Well, it didn't matter much, anyway. She was used to it. Hiding her ears, hiding her abilities... It was all the same. The only thing that was different was the feeling she got whenever she was here. For some reason, she always felt safer, more secure. Like there was nothing to be afraid of. She shrugged and stuck her hands into her jean pockets. Whatever. She liked it here, that was all she knew. She didn't know why, but then again, she didn't need to.

Eve looked down on the cat, "Well I will say that it is definately a shock." When she realized she'd hurt his feelings she picked him back up and scratched behind his ears, "I'm sorry Mr. Catz." She held him close to her as she stood up and walked around, stroking and scratching as she went, "It's okay that your human too but.... I'm not used to this type of world like others are."
Luna hugged him back and then had to push herself away. The way she pulled herself away you could see it wasn't pushing him, "I suggest you go to sleep now. I didn't feed last night and unless you want me clinging to that.. juicy, bloodfilled neck of yours I'd be leaving quickly." She felt herself scream for blood and hoped that some cute bunnies or such were around to feast on or else it would be a human and whilst they wouldn't know for being a sleep or being knocked out from losing blood, Luna would still feel bad especially if she did it to someone she cared about or saw again.
Giving him a quick kiss on his cheek she walked out the front door and ran off in the direction of the forest, using her senses to find blood she eventually came upon a hiding spot where she sat and waited for a victim to come by.
Kat had fallen asleep against the pool side, but made sure to move to a spot where she could touch the floor in case she drowned.
Lisa walked around her room and eventually just got dressed in a black silk nightgown and climbed into bed. She didn't know where Lucas was but she knew that he would come back to sleep with her, they'd been together so long and Lucas couldn't truely resist the mutant world for a reason unknown to Lisa.
Lucas walked back in to his office after Cole's dad left and picked up the envelope. Sighing to himself he used a different door to leave and saw his wife in bed, with a small kiss, "I have something to do really quick and I'll be back to sleep with you my sweet." Leaving the room again he walked up the stairs and into Cole's room, he had a key to every room so it wasn't that hard to get in and then on Cole's desk he left the envelope, took of the sticky note, and wrote on the envelope, If your ever ready to see her. She's waiting. Nodding to himself he walked back down stairs, back to his room, stripped into silk PJ bottoms, and got in bed with his wife where they drifted off to sleep together.
Liza had gone through almost a whole pack of cigarettes by now, having gone back outside when Kat left. She heard the scream and howls of the animals and the other agents and scientists whispering about how Lucifer was doing experiments again. Shaking her head she looked off in to the forest and then up to the starfilled sky. When she was down shaking her head, sighing a lot, and re-opened her eyes she lit up the last cigarette in her pack, "I need a new carton soon never mind a pack."

((Sorry about the sudden disappearance again, had some connection problems the past few days, everything's fixed now))
Marcus couldn't think of anything to say. His mind was more preoccupied on his back and how he would fix it. Every few steps he would twist his upper torso, trying to relieve the discomfort with no luck. With the springs nearing, Marcus still could not focus his mind on a conversation starter. Hopefully Akido would say something, or it might be a bit of a awkward silence.

Luke sighed slightly. He'd been wandering around for so long he'd found himself by the pool, though he'd only registered it now as he'd just narrowly stopped himself from stepping into it. Blinking a few times, he looked around to take in his surroundings. That's when he noticed Kat, and let out a sigh before walking over to her and crouching down "Yeesh. You've got a thing for falling asleep while wet and naked don't you?" He said, shaking his head a moment later to take away a mental image that had just occurred to him.
"I dunno" Xavier said mildly "True it'd be quiet; but at the same time we'd lose a remote location where no one but the other students both us. Free lab's, and about every resource material we happen to need" He was blunt, but casual as he spoke. Then he started scratching his head "I may loath the noise of this place, but there are few places where you get what you need for free, without being hounded by every government organization or otherwise that wants you to do something for them. Only reason why I put up with this place" Xavier sighed afterward and leaned against a bookshelf.
"Planning to smoke yourself into an early grave?" Lucifer asked as he stepped outside, still in his white lab coat. The howls of pain and fury continued to come from his lab in his absence "I do so love the elimination process" He said, smiling sadistically. He wasn't in the lab right now of course, but he was recording every moment of what he was missing.

Cole paused were he stood for a short moment before turning around to head up the stairs. He hadn't realized it before, but he was very tired.
He let out a small yawn as he trudged up the stairs, not feeling like going through the energy to turn into a shadow, even though it would be faster.
He came to the top of the stairs and immediately turned in the direction of his room.
He came to the door and phased through it easily. He wasn't even sure where his key was anymore since he never used it. He stripped his shirt off over his head as he approached his bed. He sat on the edge of it, not even noticing the envelope on his desk. He pulled his shoes and socks off before tugging his pants off, leaving him in nothing but his patterned boxers. He slipped underneath the covers of his bed quickly and stared at the wall in front of him for a long moment before finally closing his eyes. He slipped off to his usual deep sleep quickly. Damian purred quietly as she petted him once more. He rubbed his head against her hand lightly before glancing back up at the girl's face.
'I can just stay a cat if you wish,' he thought back to her. 'I don't mind being in this form much, but I will need to change back eventually. For right now, though, I'm perfectly fine like this.'

"It isn't that big. I think the office has maps too. If nothing else just keep one in your pocket." Shrugging her shoulders with a smile, "It seems nice enough here. I just got here a couple of minutes ago, good to know not everyone here is insane." Of course that was questionable. She was heading into the mountains just because she could as soon as she managed to stop talking to people. "Here I'll take you to the office." Taking a step she looked to see that Ayan was following.
"That is a good point but depending on the variables it's quite possible this place could stay up for quite a few years before anyone realized something was amiss." Some said her opinion of people was cold but she preferred honest. Pulling her hair up into a pony tail she held in one hand retrieving a rubber band as she continued, "Of course the government could offer some of the same benefits. Work on whatever you want they fund it, give you a place to live, and all you have to do is show them prototypes every few years while you perfect it in back." Sounding thoughtful for a moment, " I know there is a reason I told them no to begin with but now I can't quite remember." She shrugged, "Then again I hate to share and it's hell trying to explain my work to someone with the IQ of a toddler."
Akido smiled when she saw the springs coming into view. Slipping off her flip flops she picked them up taking off at a run that was a little fast even for a human. It was slow for her but she had appearances to keep up. As she got closer, Akido pulled the turtle neck over her shoulder and slipped out of her jeans leaving them where they fell revealing a black satin bra and matching bikini style bottoms that had a heart on the back to one side then she jumped into the water letting herself fall under. She hadn't been kidding when she said she had no intention of getting her clothes that wet. The water caused her illusion to waver for a second before it normalized out. Certain things that caused illusions could do that if she wasn't careful. Letting herself sit on the bottom for a few seconds she surfaced when she got warm, "These springs are amazing!" she called to him.
