Who: Jean Grey
Broadcast: fleet-wide
Action: SS Vanquish
When: 10 June
( Jean isn't a stranger to space. She isn't a stranger to time travel. She is a stranger to this particular space ship, though, and she's not really sure why she's here or how she got here. It's a pain in the ass, really, considering she just got back from space not even two weeks ago and here she is again, trapped in the limbo of endless black and stars close enough to touch. She'd started on a ship with limited capacity and basically no people and at least she's actually on a ship with people now. It's an improvement - somewhat.
Great. Just peachy.
Maybe this time they can skip the Invasion of the Symbiotes and she'll get to keep control of her own body and mind. It'd be nice, for once, not to have to worry about some alien entity invading her body for the fun of it. )
So, uh, question? What sector of space are we in, exactly? Because I just got back from a stint on Klyntar and let me tell you, it wasn't great. I don't want to go back. So if we're anywhere remotely close by (read: within one million lightyears), I'd like to go ahead and nope out now.
( Maybe this isn't the best way to introduce herself to an entire space fleet but, hey, Jean has never been one to beat around the bush. Being a telepath, she has an idea of how people's brains work and it's given her the overarching sense that she needs to just shoot straight ninety nine percent of the time. What's the point in subtlety? Say what you think, be bold, no regrets. It keeps people from misinterpreting your motives, anyway. )
Anyone got ideas on how I can get back to Earth from here? I don't want it to seem like it's less important than the former, because really, if I'm not anywhere near Klyntar I'm good, but I kind of have a team I need to get back to. I'm Jean Grey and I'm captain of the X-Men.

Re: [video]
( Still, time and the universe are strange things and from what she knows from Kitty, this version of Kurt is from a very different sort of future. )
How does it normally look for you?
Re: [video]
[He assumes so, but he's met too many fun house versions of the team he loved to be certain so quickly. In answer to her question he motions to his forehead, indicating a length not much longer than this Jean's eyebrows.]
It was a little longer than that when she was your age, but not by much. Swear every time I got a trim, that woman would lop off another inch of hair. [He chuckles softly, fondness coloring his voice.]
Re: [video]
( Jean touches the ends of her hair self-consciously, glad it's still chin length. )
Which ship are you on?
Re: [video]
Instead of sharing he grins, letting the light gleam off white teeth. He doesn't bother hiding the fangs, though on a moment's reflection he possibly should have. Oh well, nothing to do for it now.] Twin Roses. Do you want to come visit, or avoid us?
Re: [video]
( Jean is of the opinion she needs to keep the other mutants here close and trust them. Mutants aren't always inherently good people, no, but if she doesn't trust who could be her allies, who can she trust? )
