ITP: Kurt built Rogue a coffin

[fuzzybluebamf]

[So one day BEFORE Halloween, there is a fuzzy blue elf trying to drag a very nicely-made coffin into an acceptable position in the front yard. His loving sister keeps making him move it. It will fit in nicely with the tombstones, cobwebs, giant spiders, ghosts, and jack-o-bat army that are scattered artfully around the cabin. Also that pesky Sentinel and the creepy dadneto hammock additions, but who's counting those?]

I can't believe you talked me into this. What are you going to do, sleep in it?

((Open to everyone who would possibly have a reason to stop by the X-Cabin. Feel free to have antics as you see fit, since I missed most of the Halloween things.))

Right now the barrier's keeping us all from getting eaten, so maybe we should let it stay for now.

[fuzzybluebamf]

Oh, right, of course. I'm totally cool with not getting eaten. Besides, it's almost Christmas, and we'd all be going home for the holidays. You couldn't come visit and have the whole mansion be empty.

[stillagreenmiss.livejournal.com]

I'd really like to meet your friends. ...I mean, hanging out with you is fine too!

[fuzzybluebamf]

No offense taken! I'd love for you to meet everyone at the Institute. You'd get along great with them, especially Kitty.

[stillagreenmiss.livejournal.com]

Does she have powers too?

[fuzzybluebamf]

She does. She can phase through solid objects.

[stillagreenmiss.livejournal.com]

Wow! That's really hard.

[fuzzybluebamf]

Since I can't do it, I'm assuming it is. But it's pretty easy for her. She can phase other people and objects, too.

[stillagreenmiss.livejournal.com]

I'm learning how to do it. It's a pretty high-level technique.

[fuzzybluebamf]

And here I thought you could do everything. How does one go about training to phase through objects, exactly?

[stillagreenmiss.livejournal.com]

It's mostly a matter of concentration.

[fuzzybluebamf]

So in order to train I could attempt to distract you and you could try to ignore me.

[stillagreenmiss.livejournal.com]

It's more like, I have to think really hard about being a shape that can slip pass molecules in different materials.

[fuzzybluebamf]

Thaaat sounds significantly more difficult. Man, Kitty makes it look so easy.

[stillagreenmiss.livejournal.com]

I was working with my Uncle J'onn on it, but he said it might take some time.

[fuzzybluebamf]

You don't want to practice on your own, so when you see your uncle again you can surprise him with your amazing skills?

[stillagreenmiss.livejournal.com]

If I mess up, I don't know if anyone can help me.

[fuzzybluebamf]

Oh, right. Point taken. It's better to err on the side of caution in cases where molecules are being disassembled or rearranged.

[stillagreenmiss.livejournal.com]

Maybe if your friend comes, we can practice together.

[fuzzybluebamf]

I'm sure she'd love that. If anyone knows how to phase through something, it's her. Kitty could help more than I can.

[stillagreenmiss.livejournal.com]

I need to learn how to do it so I can help my team. It'd be really useful.

[fuzzybluebamf]

You've got plenty of time to learn while we're stuck here. I don't know if Kitty will show up, but if she does she's the kind of girl who would be more than happy to lend a hand. Especially if it's to help out your team too.

[stillagreenmiss.livejournal.com]

I'd use it to help everyone.

[fuzzybluebamf]

I know you would. Say, do you think you'd be able to phase through the barrier if you could do that?

[stillagreenmiss.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't leave without my friends.
