Who: Kitty and all the people of fleet!
Broadcast: Yes!
Action: Windrose if you want
When: At some point before the masquerade

We have a masquerade coming up, and I was bored so I thought I'd mettle in people's lives for my own amusement. First, the disclaimer, there is nothing wrong with going to a dance solo.

Now, for anyone else, who wants a date?

Sorry, not me. Taken. But there are probably some of you out there thinking a date would be fun, and sure, why not? So speak up. Let's make some love connections. Or, you know, awkward dancing connections. I'm a mutant, not a miracle worker.

(OOC: Please feel free to threadjack.)

Maybe. [Okay, so not a good dance match then.] Not someone I'm setting you up with though. [Not now at least!]

Good to keep in mind people can't control what powers they have though. [You know, just for future reference. It can be a sensitive topic for her.]

Thanks. [She settles back for a moment, thinking.] We didn't have people like that in my world, in still getting used to the idea. I don't mind it, but ... If rather not spend the night wondering what they know.

Yes. Can someone do that?

[It causes a small spike of adrenaline, since there are certain aspects of her past that aren't up for discussion. Ever. The idea that someone would just have access to that is unsettling.]

That's fair. This is all for fun anyway. I don't want to make anyone uncomfortable. At least not in a bad way. [A little bit of discomfort is good, right? Boundary pushing. Growing. Learning.]

I have powers myself. Physical though.

Heh, You're not alive if it doesn't hurt, right? [There's a certain truth to that mentality, for someone of her world.]

How did you get your ability?

[Is it sad how much she agrees with that or happy that she's pausing to wonder.] Sounds about right. This place is a lot gentler, but...that hurts in it's own way. [Being different. Adjusting. Time to reflect.]

I was born with a gene that predetermines it. Both of my parents were human, but then at puberty I could suddenly walk through walls. Or fall through floors. It was hard to control at first. [Which is probably exactly as scary as it sounds.]

Fall through floors? [That does sound scary. She's had to deal with a lot of things, but the idea of randomly falling through the very ground beneath you is actually a terrifying thought, especially in a place like this where there is no lower floor to break your fall.]

How long did it take you to get it under control?

[passingthrough]

Longer than it should have. I spent more time trying to deny it and hide it than I did embracing it at first. [It was just as anti-mutant hysteria was on the rise and, regrettably, with good reason as Apocalypse was just starting to demonstrate his power he'd been amassing behind the scenes.]
