God damn it, Karla. Jono was trying to be angry and sputtery at you, and here you went, knocking the bluster out of him just like that.

He sighed, his hand falling to his side and his shoulders slumping a little.

"I did," he admitted. "But you know I was far more worried about you. And not because of the bloody show. Mind, you don't exactly look as though you went crashing up against Magneto and the Phoenix all in one go, really."

Go on, Karla. Tell him the Juggernaut was there. See him have an aneurysm.

"I don't really think you go up against the Phoenix," Karla admitted. "It's more like you try to avoid her notice so you don't get unmade into atoms while you try to get as far away from her as you can."

If Karla'd known then what she knew now, she might not have been so mouthy to Jean in the mansion.

"As it is, I'm going to have a bitch of a headache for awhile. She's very...loud. Like a psionic hurricane."
furnaceface: (Wait!)

"More like a supernova," Jono sighed. "If you hadn't sent that text, I had half a mind to pack up and find my way there, and I'd hit every variation of my own reality in the multiverse until I found the right bloody one, if it came to that."

Karla, meet the overprotective older brother you never had.

How ever did she get so lucky?

...No matter how dryly she ever said that, inwardly she would always be very sincere when she did.

"I told you I would save him," she replied. "Kitty and I had to outrun the Juggernaut to do it, but we did. He's with the X-men now."

"Marko was there, too? Bloody hell, you've got to be joking."

See Jono. See Jono put a hand to the side of his head as though he was swiftly developing a headache. He'd thrown down against Cain on more than one occasion, thanks.

"What the hell does he even care about a mutant cure, anyhow?" A beat. "No, you know, I don't think I want to know. Leech is safe, you're safe, even if you look like you were flattened by a bus. I'll take it."

And a hug. Because today was crazy day.
glacial_queen: (Hugging for comfort)

"He was sent by Magneto to kill Jimmy, I think," Karla said quietly, hugging Jono closely. "I look like I crashed into a bridge," she corrected. "It was the better option."
furnaceface: (Strategy)

Re: Backstage

[personal profile] furnaceface 2011-12-18 01:38 am (UTC)(link)
Yep. All the weird looks, mostly aimed at the top of her head, along with a pretty damn firm hug.

"Crashed into a bridge."

He was going to sigh and shake his head.

"One of these nights, I'm taking you out for drinks. And you can tell me the story from front to back. While you get me drunk, because I'm going to sodding well need it."
glacial_queen: (Conversation 2)

"That sounds like a good plan," Karla agreed. "I think I'm going to want to drink while I tell it. There was a lot going on and very little of it was pretty."

Jono was probably shocked to hear it.

"He's staying with the X-men, I think," she said instead. "Going to their school."
furnaceface: (Hmm.)

Re: Backstage

[personal profile] furnaceface 2011-12-18 02:01 am (UTC)(link)
Jono nodded a little at that, thoughtfully.

"That's good, then. Better than growing up underground with the Morlocks. Won't be easy for him, though." He frowned a little. "Kids won't like that he turns their powers off, at least in a few cases."
glacial_queen: (Pursed lips)

"Yeah, well, I bet he didn't like being kept in a lab," Karla grumped. "They can deal."

Not that was she certain how large his area of affect was, but she was pretty sure some kind of accommodation could be made.

"He's not green in Warren's world," she added. "He looks no different than any human boy. I don't know how anyone even knew he was a mutant in the first place."
furnaceface: (Silhouette)

Re: Backstage

[personal profile] furnaceface 2011-12-18 02:48 am (UTC)(link)
That got a weird little look out of Jono, yes.

"Not every mutant looks like a mutant," he noted. "But the first time he walked past somebody who did and wound up reversing their mutation on them, it would've been fairly clear. The Leech I know, green or not, had to learn to control his power. He and I lived on the same campus, you know."

Picture that, if Leech didn't have that self-control, Karla.
glacial_queen: (Longing (sad))

Re: Backstage

[personal profile] glacial_queen 2011-12-18 03:05 am (UTC)(link)
Karla did and shuddered. "I know not everyone does," she said. She was friends with many of them--Emma, Bobby...okay, she'd met than Angelica girl...

"Then maybe he'll get a chance to learn it at the mansion," she said. "...Is it wrong that I just want to bring him home with me? Keep him safe and protected so he can't be hurt by anyone else again."

All the Leeches, really. All of them.
furnaceface: (Lopsided Look)

"No, not wrong," Jono replied, shaking his head a little. "Hell, he'd be just... normal, in Kaeleer, if he really looks just like anyone else, like you say. You can't nullify mutant powers if there aren't any mutants about, after all."
