Epic M&M: Issue 3 (IC)

"Hey guys, what happened? Did Kevin mimic Nova or something?"
Both your dad and Thunder cuff you on the back of the head with a laugh. "X probably plugged his toaster and hair dryer into the same outlet," Thunder says with a grin. "Kevin sure didn't cause that. And don't go blaming it on Vince either," he adds with a chuckle. "Bet you didn't think you'd get a shot so soon to pay him back for saving your wing," he says to Vincent, looking back at the burned rooms.

"Got a little lipstick on you there, SJ," Nova mentions from above. "Just what have you been up to," she says teasingly.

"Isolate me, please, until the group is ready to leave for Master Wen," X12 says, composing himself. "Someplace quiet, someplace safe... for me... from me for everyone else. I... can't guarantee I didn't... cause this to happen somehow."
"I can guarantee you didn't," Sanchez says. "Johan can confirm it; nothing you did could have caused that fire, unless you can cause things to combust by looking at them."

"You have flashbacks. We knew this when you came here," Thunder adds. "But you've never done anything to hurt anyone, and I'm not locking you up for what will probably turn out to be an electrical fire. Especially for three weeks. And even if you did somehow cause it, you're not the first person to have damage to their rooms, though that is a bit more than usual," he says, looking again at the fire damage. "It'll be fixed in a week."

"Quicker than that," Sanchez says. "I have helpers," she says, pointing at Johan. "I'll get Kodiak and Trailblazer to help too, and Merlin if he's not too lazy. Oops, did I say that outloud?" she smirks.

"There you go. Until then, we'll get you some new clothes and you can bunk with Vince if he doesn't mind."

You notice Rebound was one of the students carried out of their rooms. He's burned a bit. You also have a familiar feeling in your body, like your healing powers may be returning.

Michelle, Dara and Monica run up.

Oh wow! Dara exclaims.

Monica sees X12 on the ground and plops down next to him, checking over his wounds. "Jeeze, Sparky. You warming up for the barbeque or somethin'?" She checks your hand, wipes some soot from your face and generally takes a moment to make you uncomfortable. "Looks like you might need a place to stay for a few nights," she says suggestively.

Kevin walk next to X12 bed. "Relax. You need some rest. Let me mimic your powers. I'll take care of the other, it will give you a break for once."

"Just a little nature walk. Nothing special. Oh, I guess Dad & I did apprehend a few wanted goons, but no biggie. Hmm, lipstick eh? well sometimes you get the just rewards." He replies wiping off the lipstick. "X, you OK there? Your hands don't look so good."

He'll then check out to see if his room survived the conflagration.

"Oh that's real subtle, somehow I don't think he would get the rest he needs in her room." Michelle whispers to Dara.

"Thank you all, really -- I appreciate it," X12 says, managing a weak smile.

"That's nice of you, Kevin, really, but my wounds will heal quickly. It's no trouble for me to help Rebound, X12 says, patting Kevin on the shirt. He moves over towards Rebound, and reaches down to touch his forehead, hoping his powers have returned in any capacity.

X12 smiles as the attention begins, but his smile quickly fades after her comment. "Alright, Monica," he says, standing abruptly, "I'm only going to say this once -- I like you, as a friend. I'm presently not interested in pursuing anything physically intimate, at all, with anyone. I would appreciate it if you curbed your advances towards me; it makes me uncomfortable. You don't need to approach me like that -- I like you regardless."

X12 shakes his head, then turns to regard everyone else. "I'm presently not equipped emotionally to deal with all of this at once -- all I know is that, while all of you don't think I'm any danger, and your support is greatly appreciated, all I can keep thinking is that something is very wrong with me, and whoever or whatever made me the way I am... made me to do something awful.... I just need some time... I'm going to take a jog around the track, if that's okay with everyone. Otherwise, I can stay and help here."
 

Sanjay watches the display, using his powers to help stabalize the buidling and put out small fires where needed. He still holds the package, but tries to not draw any attention to it.

"There you go. Until then, we'll get you some new clothes and you can bunk with Vince if he doesn't mind."

"**Cough** Just glad to help **Cough** **Cough** Especially with how much X has helped **Cough** me.. **Cough** And of course he can stay with me **Cough** **Cough** but he better keep to that no intimacy promise"
 

"Just a little nature walk. Nothing special. Oh, I guess Dad & I did apprehend a few wanted goons, but no biggie. Hmm, lipstick eh? well sometimes you get the just rewards."
Mendez shakes his head, chuckling. "Not enough happens around here, you have to go play hero on your own. Ok, tough guy. Let's head to HQ and file a report. I want to know everything that happened. We'll make it quick and we won't miss the barbeque."

"His Dad?" you hear someone ask. "I think he's a little nuts."

"Oh that's real subtle, somehow I don't think he would get the rest he needs in her room." Michelle whispers to Dara.
"What do you mean?" Dara whispers with big innocent eyes. It takes you a moment to realize she's pulling your leg.

"That's nice of you, Kevin, really, but my wounds will heal quickly. It's no trouble for me to help Rebound, X12 says, patting Kevin on the shirt. He moves over towards Rebound, and reaches down to touch his forehead, hoping his powers have returned in any capacity.
It takes a few minutes, but Rebound's burns fade. Your regeneration takes care of the injuries you take.

Healing currently at 1.

X12 smiles as the attention begins, but his smile quickly fades after her comment. "Alright, Monica," he says, standing abruptly, "I'm only going to say this once -- I like you, as a friend. I'm presently not interested in pursuing anything physically intimate, at all, with anyone. I would appreciate it if you curbed your advances towards me; it makes me uncomfortable. You don't need to approach me like that -- I like you regardless."
"Good thing, Sparky. I like you too," she says with a grin, standing up beside you. You're not sure she grasped your request. Thunder however looks impressed with the straightforwardness you show and says nothing.

X12 shakes his head, then turns to regard everyone else. "I'm presently not equipped emotionally to deal with all of this at once -- all I know is that, while all of you don't think I'm any danger, and your support is greatly appreciated, all I can keep thinking is that something is very wrong with me, and whoever or whatever made me the way I am... made me to do something awful.... I just need some time... I'm going to take a jog around the track, if that's okay with everyone. Otherwise, I can stay and help here."
"Nothing is 'wrong' with you X. You have amnesia. It's not easy to cope with. Add to it that you're a mutant and it only makes it harder on you."

"It's not ok with me," Monica says in regards to your jog. "I mean, I personally would like to watch, but you might catch a draft," she says poking you in the chest through one of the myriad of holes honeycombed through your outfit from the fire. "C'mon, Sparky. Let's get you some new duds from storage," she says helpfully. Ok... maybe she did grasp your request. "Then you can borrow Vince's shower and have your run."

"**Cough** Just glad to help **Cough** **Cough** Especially with how much X has helped **Cough** me.. **Cough** And of course he can stay with me **Cough** **Cough** but he better keep to that no intimacy promise"
"If he can resist me, he sure isn't going to switch hit with you, Big Red," Monica says as she drags X12 off to get clothes.

OOC: And yes, just to get clothes.

"Ok gang, it should be fine that way," Thunder says to those of you working on the dorm. "We're leaving for my brother's place in 20, so get yourselves cleaned up if you're coming. X, I expect you to come. It'll do you good to have some non-threatening interaction for a change of pace."

Sanchez says to Johan, "Come on sweetie. Lets see if we can find the cause of that fire with a second look."

"Ha, you almost had me there, I'm going to get ready for the bbq, talk to you later."

Michelle will go to her room drop off her bags, shower and get changed.
