Video + Marsiva

Who: Kitty Pryde
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Marsiva, hospitality deck
When: Current

[It starts recording without her realizing it. She's exploring her new surroundings cautiously. She places a hand on one of the cots and then pushes it through as if the cot weren't there at all. She removes her arm and both it and the cot are unharmed. Just testing her powers, don't mind her. She got worried when she realized her claws were missing.

Then she gets a better look at her communicator. It's a different model than she's used to.]

Is this another prison?

[It wouldn't be the first time the AIs sent them to a new facility. A space prison is as fitting as anything else, but there's usually some kind of message about it. This feels different.]

Is anyone from the Defense Force around? [Pause.] Or the X-Men. [She couldn't really be home though could she? In space?] Or anyone. Preferably someone with a light. [She can't find her lighter, but she still has a pack of cigarettes on her.]

(OOC: So, the coloring they used in AoA often makes her hair look reddish or blond, but I doubt the post-apocalyptic reality was really where she was going to start dying it. If you have known a Kitty Pryde, please just assume she looks like her—possibly younger or older. Shorter hair though. <3)

I get it. I guess we can't all be perfect. [He says teasingly, with a flip of his hair, as if he hadn't spent a week or so crushing on freaking Boom Boom.

But his expression shifts back to concern quickly.]

She - she is? Are you sure? ...She shouldn't even be there to begin with!

There's a beach and parks and a theatre and bowling alley and all the food and clothes and stuff you could ever want for free. It's not your most prison-y prison. She's fine. Besides, Logan's there. [Although she actually has zero idea if they've spoken. That Logan barely knows his world's Kitty which...hurt. But it still makes her feel better that he could be there watching out for her. She was a little protective of her younger self even if she kept her distance.]

[Well what Kurt doesn't know won't hurt him. He has grown to trust Logan over time, so he does look visibly relieved by what she says.]

Oh. That... it doesn't sound so bad. [Kurt smiles.] I mean, I hope we all get to see each other again one day, but for now... I guess it's not as bad as it can be. [He's actually not even sure if he wants to go back home, per se, since he fears the impending threat of a certain ancient mutant with phenomenal power.]

There are definitely lots of levels of bad below this. [She's seen more than a few.]

It does kind of make me sad I didn't drill her for dirt on you of course.

[He's a bit worried about how it almost sounds like she's speaking from experience. But... moving right along...]

Now that's just a shame. You'll just have to get by the old-fashioned way, without any cheat sheets! [It won't take long for her to find material. Really.]

[So no stories from home for you, right?]

I guess I can handle that. Or just ask the network and see what they tell me. [Smirking.]

[At least not at the moment...

Now there's some sheepish cracks in his confident armor.]

W-well, you could, but you know you can't always believe what you hear...

Now why would people want to lie about you? [She's not going to, but she does like teasing him.]

[Of course she does. It's a universal Kitty trait, and this is exactly what Kurt feared.]

Wh-who knows?! [NERVOUS LAUGHTER.] Um, maybe they're just jealous of how awesome I am?

[Lucky you!]

It's definitely a theory. Speaking of other people, anyone to watch out for here?

What, you mean like bad dudes? I don't know much on that front, really. ...Even Gambit's been behaving himself.

I'm not really worried about Remy. [Maybe she should be. So many things can change a person, but he seemed okay to her and the one she remembers was a thief and all, but he was on the right side of things when it counted.]

But I guess no news is good news. [There were occasionally problem inmates.] Any threats? [Does she seem a little threat focused? Bit of a warrior mentality.]

[He just nods at the bit about Remy. Rogue seems to trust him as well, and somehow so far he has seemed to be... not as bad as he thought he was. So far.]

Geez, when do you ask about birthday parties? No, there isn't much in the way of threats. I heard that the fleet was hit by some mysterious enemy ships a while back, but I don't know much about that... and it's been pretty much smooth sailing for us for a long time now.

[Enemy ships. Good to know. But his comment does leave her feeling a little embarrassed. She hasn't seen Kurt in a long time. Okay, she hasn't seen this Kurt ever, but all the more reason to get to know him rather than interrogate him.]

You missed my birthday by twenty days. Did you have one coming up? [Not that she doesn't know his birthday, but she's spent the last year or so living without actual dates or calendars. And she knows people get brought in from different times so it's not like actual time matches up well.]

My bad. [He sheepishly shrugs.]

Well, mine's already passed! [At least by the fleet's calendar. Kurt never thought to account for the time difference.] More than two months ago!

That's okay. You can still get me something. [Teasing smile just for you, blue.]

[He tries to tease right back.]

How about some birthday punches?

You can try. [Playful challenging.]

[Kurt will pretend that he's capable of even playfully challenging her.]

Maybe I will! I have to make up for lost time, after all!

You can't even get to this ship can you, teleporter?

...Okay, you got me there. Giant inescapable spaceships are a little out of my range.

Guess we'll have to call a rain check for whenever you get shuffled.

I'm very excited to be treated like a deck of cards.

[He chuckles.]

Then let's hope you bring home the jackpot!

Is your ship supposed to be the jackpot this case?

Wellll, it could be. If a jackpot could have a joker in it!
