[VIDEO]
[Kitty is still in her bedroom where she's been for the past two months when the video opens.]

If the timestamps I'm seeing are right then I'm surprised I don't have a long beard by now. That's a Rip Van Winkle joke for any of the non-earthlings who think maybe I can grow a beard.

So, I'm Kitty Pryde for anyone who just showed up. Just so you know I still have seniority over you. I could take your lunch money any time I want. And hi. Any new mutants? Maybe some Avengers who should be mutants, but they aren't because timelines are funny that way? [Wanda and Pietro were strange, okay?]

I haven't flipped through much of the network yet. Feel free to do a roll call. Let me know you're here—new, old, returned, twice baked, whatever. Did I miss anything fun? Maybe some birthdays? Oh, right, like mine. [She picks up some pretty and unusual stones and nudges an illustrated physics book. She speaks softer.] Maybe someone remembered.

[Scrolling through some old network posts and her eyes widen slightly.] Maybe I missed something not so fun...

[ACTION : TWIN ROSES]
[Her body feels lethargic and uninterested in all this moving she wants to do. But she's been out of commission and she feels the need to catch up. So she'll be looking for crewmates and visitors.]

[It's the bestworst thing ever. ] At least it prepares us to roll with the strangeness, no?

The Bistro still has plenty, or rather...the closest Jarvis can make to it. [Thanks to being in SPACE and all. ]

Mmm...The Bistro. I should really check on Jarvis now that you mention it. [She loves you for more than food, best friend! She is glad to hear he's still around.]

Sleeping for a couple months really builds an appetite.

I am sure he would be a happy to see you as I am!

[He'll give a little bow and everything. ]

Go, enjoy some food!

Done with me already, Lumiere? I expected some quality missing and some nearly unshakeable attachment.

[He chuckles, flashing her a grin. ]

Well~ If that's what you want, I can definitely offer that.

[He clears his throat. Are you ready? You better be ready. He's bringing his A Game. ]

Ahhh, mon chaton, every day without you has been agony. Day without sunlight, nights without starlight. It has been pure torture, and now you are back it is like the world finally makes sense again. There is a reason to get out of bed in the morning once more. Truly, I am blessed again.

[There's a pause followed by a slow clap.]

Not bad. A little subtle, but that's just who you are.

I'm so glad you noticed. I was absolutely attempting a great amount of subtlety. Because it is the very core of my soul.

Oh, I did. I did. But you should really let your more dramatic side out occasionally. It might be cathartic. [She missed you, waxy, even if she can't remember missing you.]

[He has sure missed her. ]

You know, you might be right! I may have to try that once in a while. Only for short bursts, my modesty would forbid any more.

Of course. You should still be yourself after all. That's the guy we all like. [She liiiiikes you.]

[It's cool, he liiiiikes her. ]

Awww~ Well, I'd never want to go against what everyone likes. That would disappoint the entire Fleet, I can't have that,.

That's right. Lots of people to be pleasing. [Even as someone who served others back home she doesn't really see Lumiere as a people pleaser though. He just seems himself, living his truth,...but as a candle.]

Thanks for checking in on me. I guess I have the roster, but seeing faces is better.

But of course! I could never shirk those duties.

[He'll shirk every other duty ever, but not the fun one. His smile softens, becoming a touch more genuine. ]

That's never a burden for me. I am happy to see you up and about again, mon chaton.

I'm glad you left a light on for me. [Don't fall in love, Lumeire. Her puns were what got Winn.]

[Oh, be still his beating heart.

You know.

Metaphorically.]

You know I will always keep a candle burning for you, ma cherie.

I want to say something with spark or light and it's just not coming to me so I may have to call it a draw.

[He bows to the camera. ]

I would happily call it a draw. Well punned, mon chaton.

You're a worthy opponent [Pause] and a good friend.

[Aww, he offers a genuine smile back. ]

Likewise. And it is good to see you up and about, ma cherie.

You too, Lumiere. I plan on seeing you soon. [She points for emphasis.] Be prepared. [Wrong movie, Kitty.]

[He laughs, giving a little salute. Such the wrong movie.]

I shall wait for that day with baited breath.

Careful. Lack of oxygen is bad for fire. [She returns a nod.] See you.
