Who: Kate Bishop + YOU
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Iskaulit
When: Yesterday evening.

Want to play a game? [ kate's surroundings are, quite evidently, a lush little corner of málum. the neon-y blue tinge of the bar's decor casts its colour over her features. there's a tall, impressively concocted cocktail at her elbow. ] I mean, I know I do. So here's how it goes: you tell me anywhere you'd rather be but here, with the caveat that it can't just be a home. I think it's safe to say that home is a very understandable answer, but it's also a little too achingly realistic for my purposes. So pick somewhere else. Pick Ibiza. Pick Iceland, if you want.

Well, unless Iceland is your home. Then please refer to rule numero uno. It also happens to be the game's only rule. [ short and sweet, that's our katerade.

and maybe about an hour (and maybe another drink) later: ] ...Does anyone wanna come dance with me?

[ swipe right, dear flooters. swipe right. ]

Oh, that's cute. Is that how you chose your weapon for the puns?

Sorta seems so, doesn't it? But no. It's coincidence. I'm just as handy with a sword.

Anything from our century? [Says the girl who uses claws. She hasn't even advanced to human warfare.]

I can shoot a gun, if that's what you're asking. [ (one of the) world's greatest shots, afterall. ] I guess I just prefer not to.

Sure. I'm one of the few X-Men with weapons anyway. We're usually just, you know, our own weapon. [She doesn't mean this as a put down for not having powers. She's just not really thinking about it.] Kurt always carried swords though. Guns for his mom.

[ it's alright, darling. she's used to it. water off a duck's back.

but she does qualify: ] I mean -- don't get me wrong. I can be my own weapon, too. I didn't take jiu jitsu for years just to look awesome in a bikini.

It doesn't hurt though, right? [Kitty smiles.]

No, [ she laughs. ] It definitely does not.

[Smiling.] Logan taught me to fight. My power isn't exactly the most weapon-like at first sight. [It can do a lot of damage, but mostly just in super horrifying ways—phasing out internal organs, merging bodies into walls. Things you can't unsee or undo. The claws feel cleaner somehow.]

I dunno. I can imagine some pretty effective applications. Even without having seen the whole...phasing stuff with my own eyes, back home.

Well, if you end up back there you'll have to look up my counterpart for a team up. Not that you can't see phasing stuff with your own eyes here.
