Nathan and Askani, the middle of Monday night

[x-cable.livejournal.com]

Nathan's been sleeping enough during the day lately that sleeping through the night is even more of a challenge than usual. He and Askani watch the moonlight and talk Shakespeare.

Nathan and Manuel, Tuesday morning

[x-cable.livejournal.com]

Nathan and Manuel have their first lesson since before Mistra. Manuel isn't handling recent events well. Nathan isn't handling Manuel well. They talk about actions, inaction, and consequences. Nathan eventually tries to do the smart thing and haul Manuel off to Charles, but Manny isn't having any of that.

Log: Angelo and Jubilee

[x-jubilee.livejournal.com]

Who:Angelo and Jubilation Lee

Backdated to:Tuesday 31st August 2004. 12 Midday

What Happens: Angelo asks Jubilee why she left and she tells him. Leads to talk of expectations, karma, killing and how sometimes trying is all you can promise.

Nathan and Jack Leary, Tuesday afternoon

[x-cable.livejournal.com]

Nathan's therapist arrives on Tuesday afternoon to sit down for a nice, long chat. (OOC: Thanks to Rossi for socking Jack for me!)

( Sorry about the mess... )

Amanda and Moira; Amanda and Pete - backdated to August 31.

Backdated to Tuesday, 31st of August. Following a night spent on Nate and Moira's couch (as prefaced in this log with Nathan), Amanda slips out early in the morning for another fix, only to have Moira find her. It all seems very bleak.

( The drugs don't work, they just make it worse. )

Pete's turn later the same day - he has better luck getting through to Amanda, possibly because he's sneakier. And it seems like the inability to say the L word runs in the family. Set before the boating log with Nate and Bella, which explains the improved mood.

( Listen to me, you daft cow. )

Apologies for the delay - access has been sporadic, at best...

The Long-Awaited Reunion

[x-crowdofone.livejournal.com]

Much later this afternoon, at the airport, Kitty's plane finally arrives.  Jamie, having made productive use of the wait to make friends with the security personnel and thoroughly investigate the local vending machines, is very glad to find better things to do with his time.  They have what passes for a normal conversation between students at Xavier's--interdimensional menu comparisons--and engage in shockingly public displays of affection.

( Now that she's back in the atmosphere )

---

And much later this evening, after happy reunions all around, Kitty and Jamie sneak out to the treehouse for a bit of private time involving pillows, stories about Asgard, a particular bracelet, a particular scar, playing with food, advanced states of undress, and even more shockingly private displays of affection.

( Did you fall for a shooting star? )

Amanda, Nathan - Tuesday afternoon

[xp_daytripper]

Angst break - Nathan takes Amanda out on the lake again to give her a chance to catch her breath. With Bella as co-conspirator, it works beautifully.

Nathan and Lorna, Later Tuesday Afternoon

[x-polarisstar.livejournal.com]

Nathan and Lorna meet in the sunroom to talk about training as per these emails. Lorna brings cookies. Powers are discussed, plans are made and Lorna freaks out the Askani a little bit. It all goes well though.

( Devil's in the details )

[Paul, Shiro] Backdated to Tuesday: A simple 'I'm sorry' can't possibly express my regret.

[x-vega.livejournal.com]

Shiro comes to see Paul to apologize and is a little surprised at the response.  The two end up discussing Shiro's future, and Paul is too ill to spank some sense into him, thank heavens, because that could  just get complicated.

It's been insufficient for me often enough.( Read more... )

[Paul, Nate] Ali: Well. Whoa. :) / Ande: They are on so much old man crack.

[x-vega.livejournal.com]

Gah.  How to summarize?  Okay, Nate is antsy and can't sleep so he brings Paul a CD of Askani music (feat. Alison!) and fills Paul in on the world above.  Paul coerces Nate into practicing saying "no". Nate admits that he can't help Manuel any further right now.  Yes.  Nate has limits, OMG.  Then they talk about Dom and broken noses and Nate gets optimistic and Paul has to threaten him with Hello Kitty to calm him down.  Paul tries to get Nate to set him up with Jack Leary and fails.  Nate admits to being whipped.  Paul approves.  They talk about glitter, crafts, knitting, and Go.  Then Paul falls prey to Nathan's evil scheme to make him sleepy with Askani lullabies.  There! 

Whole lot of smart, no wise to speak of.( Read more... )
