IMPORTANT NOTE: REFER HERE before jumping in.

SECOND IMPORTANT NOTE: It's been nearly a day since John has disappeared, along with Logan. There are whispers and rumors floating around school that John has left for the Brotherhood again and Logan has followed to skewer him. Some people say they ran away together to fall in love and join the circus though. Keep it in mind!

He told me... [Forge wonders if it's accurate to say "enough". Probably not, all things considered. He didn't do a very good job of, well, anything in this situation. Short of tasering his intended pupil.] Well, I guess hearing about isn't really the same as seeing you in action.

But... [He furrows his brow. He's really not used to training anyone. His talents lie in programming to die for simulations and running manual overrides in the control room. He isn't exactly sure how this whole follow-up thing is supposed to go.] I meant more, uhm, the thing with your mentor. And boyfriend. And ex-boyfriend.
[He feels a little lame asking, but...it seems like the right thing to do.] Are you feeling...any better?

Lame!Tag, my bad.

[Rogue nods, feeling a little bit awkward.] Yeah, I uhh... punching ninjas helped. [She offers a half smile. It's an awkward situation for both of them. She's not used to training like this with anyone besides Logan and she's still not completely comfortable with having had such a drastic loss of control in front of him. But instead, she just tries to continue the thread of this "conversation."] How about you?

w/e everything seems a little lame compared to PUNCHING NINJAS (like this tag)

[forgingthings.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Uh. [Awkwardness abounds! Forge wishes he had something to busy himself with, and then remembers how desperately important it is that he re-recalibrate the taser in his leg. So, he's speaking down at the open panel in his metallic lower limb.] I'm still pissed off. Probably will be for a while.

That's cuz they're fucking NINJAS.

[Oh hi there awkwardness. Rogue drops her gaze again, nodding and then biting her lip nervously. The adrenaline's starting to wear off. Her entire body hurts and she's currently thinking longingly of a shower and sleep.] I uhm... thanks for runnin' the sim with me and for... for shootin' me before. [The words start out sounding weird to her ears and then they just sound kind of funny. Because thanking someone for shooting you is just downright ridiculous.]

Re: That's cuz they're fucking NINJAS.

[forgingthings.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Sure. [Ridiculous? Yeah, Forge agrees. Wholeheartedly. He'll definitely think harder about taking over for Logan as mentor and impaler (or in this case, electrocutioner?) next time. Still, he has to admit...before the whole shooting incident, he was kind of having fun.] Anytime?

[He can't help it, his ludicrous response makes him burst out laughing. He shakes his head, giving Rogue an amused smile.]

Think we can gloss over the details of this for Logan when he gets back?

[canstillkickass.livejournal.com]

I'm pretty sure that Logan never needs to know that happened. [Rogue can't help grinning too and there might even be a bit of a laugh there.] I think the report can start and end with ninjas.
