Bobby's aftermath threads

[never-too-cold.livejournal.com]

Characters: Bobby, Laura, John, Jono, and anyone else who wants to jump in
Setting: Various places
Content: There's a lot of things to deal with in the wake of the past couple of days...
Status: Open(ish) and incomplete

Okay, so, in order to preserve my sanity while I get back into the rhythm of things with class, I'm trying something a little different. This will work kind of like the day-in-the-life posts, except I'm just going to throw up a few comments for a few specific characters, and then a general "Bobby's in the kitchen eating ice cream; come say hi" one which anyone can tag into after that. =)

Comments will be in vague chronological order, but we all know that TIME IS IN FLUX at XMH, so it doesn't matter too much when this stuff happens!

Hope it's not confusing!

[She raises an eyebrow with a hint of amusement in her expression. Because okay can over so many things.] I'll be a bit sore for a few days more but I'm guessin' that's not what you meant exactly?

[never-too-cold.livejournal.com]

[He lets out a breath of laughter, shakes his head.] Not exactly, no. [Despite his light tone, he is actually a little concerned. Not because he doesn't think she can handle it, but because Rogue has a history of not saying when she isn't okay, and she went through a lot yesterday - Bobby just wants to make sure everything's fine.]

Sorry for my inability to type today. My phone hates me.

[She grins, glad for the more light hearted moment before sobering again.] It'll take a little bit to get used to extra baggage but I'll be okay. [There's a pause before she hastens to repeat herself.] Sugah, I promise. This ain't like before. I'll be okay.

[never-too-cold.livejournal.com]

[He can see from her face that she's being honest, and he nods, satisfied.] Okay. Good.

[He points his spoon at her, bringing their banter back up to light-hearted again.] I'm gonna hold you to that.

[canstillkickass.livejournal.com]

Uh-huh. Or what, sugah? [Her tone's firmly back in the realm of teasing again. She takes another bite of her sandwich before grinning broadly and continuing their banter.] You gonna make me run more DR sessions? Can you do that since you're officially a leader now?

[never-too-cold.livejournal.com]

Nah, I'll just tell Logan I think you've been slacking off in training. [Bobby returns the grin and says his next sentence around half a mouthful of ice cream.] Or I'll do a Scott and look at you all disappointed and just slowly shake my head.

[He swallows and demonstrates in an uncanny impression of their Glorious Leader. The next words are said in an affected tone of heavy disappointment.]

You made me a promise, Rogue. Promises should be kept.

[Bobby can't help laughing at himself as he concludes his impression and digs into his ice cream again.]

[canstillkickass.livejournal.com]

[There's barely enough time for an expression of shocked indignation at the Logan quip before she's laughing a lot at Bobby's rather spot on Scott impression.]

Okay okay, you win! I think the threat of two disappointed Scotts will--

[And then she breaks off her sentence in favour of giggles again.]

[never-too-cold.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that's right, you don't wanna mess with me.

[It's been a while since they've laughed together, and Bobby is glad that they've finally reached that point where they can begin thinking of each other as friends instead of exes. He flashes her a crooked grim.]

[canstillkickass.livejournal.com]

Generations of future X-men will all quake in their boots at the thought of getting a scolding from you.

[Rogue tries to keep a straight face as she says it, she really does but she fails miserably. She's glad too that they've reached the point of being friends again. There aren't a whole lot of people in the mansion that she feels comfortable discussing things like this. It's nice that she doesn't have to explain many of the things that just drudge up bad memories for her; he already knows.]
