Nathan and Rachel and an anniversary

[x-cable.livejournal.com]

Nathan is woken by nightmares that don't make any sense until he's reminded of the date. One year later, and the whole world has changed.

( The glory dies not, and the grief is past. )

Log: Forge and Alison

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

After receiving the call from Lorna and passing along the message, Forge gets a visit from Alison demanding clarification. Some humorous misunderstandings lead to a serious offer. Set early morning Tuesday.

( Wait, Lorna's having a baby?  )

Shiro & Cain

[x-sanfuaiyaa.livejournal.com]

Earlier this morning, Cain meets Shiro in the DR locker rooms. As Shiro unwinds and Cain prepares for his training, they discuss leadership, and the Juggernaut gives Shiro some things to consider.

( Besides, if I was the leader, who'd be left for me to piss off? )

Log: Madelyn and Terry

[x-siryn.livejournal.com]

Backdated to last week because I'm a moron and forgot to post it.

Madelyn meets with Terry about the FBI and careers therein. More meetings are promised.

( So, the FBI, huh? )

LOG: Haroun and Alison - Don't Call Me Girly

[x-jetstream.livejournal.com]

Haroun and Alison hit the mat for a little hand-to-hand work. Therapeutic, in a way, and progress is assuredly made. Sat early Tuesday morning.

( You done, or do you think you can worm your way out of my leglock? )

Moira and Amanda end one of their training sessions and then take a baby break. Amanda asks Moira a question about a special kind of gift for Rachel.

( Training Days )

Amanda and Marie-Ange, on tattoos.

[x-tarot.livejournal.com]

Marie-Ange finally asks Amanda about tattoos. Advice is given, and portents of a Big ol' arguement with Doug about it come up.

( It _was_ possible to choke on air. Amanda was proof of it. )

Jamie and Kitty at the mall, Tuesday afternoon

[x-crowdofone.livejournal.com]

In which Jamie is the victim of a highly sneaky and devious plot aimed at his wardrobe, and Kitty bribes him into putting up with it. Afterward, they hit the food court, then go do the shopping Jamie originally thought they were there for.

( Notebooks and pencils and all that good stuff are back thataway. )

Nimrod

[x-cyclops.livejournal.com]

The Blackbird arrives in Hungary and is greeted by Istvan Barath, the Minister of Mutant Affairs and an old friend of Charles. He has some less-than-good news for Scott and Ororo about how the police are handling their cornered serial killer.

( When bureaucracy works against you... )

At the apartment building where Veres/Nimrod has been cornered, the X-Men begin to search as the police finally begin to evacuate the tenants. Kurt perhaps wishes for an image inducer.

( How do you say 'I am not a demon' in Hungarian? )

On another floor, Wanda finds herself in perfect position to react when Veres finally reveals himself. Not all the tenants on that floor have been evacuated, and Wanda has to resort to some risky tactics to protect the innocent.

( An incompetent landlord is sometimes a good thing. )

So what did happen to knock out the X-Men's telepathic switchboard? Also, Bobby and Shiro, along as trainee observers, get a chance to step in and perform under pressure.

( The tale of a ballistic coatrack... )

Final confrontation-time. Things do not go well for Scott, who's the first to find Veres after he gets away from Wanda, but with the addition of Haroun and Kylun to the equation, the balance shifts. Still, Veres doesn't go down easily.

( The hunter at bay. (Eventually.) )

Nathan and Shiro on the Blackbird on the way home, Tuesday night

[x-cable.livejournal.com]

On the way back from Hungary, Nathan thanks Shiro for saving his life. The two of them have something that doesn't just pass for a civil conversation, but actually is.

( Thanks for playing catch. )

[x-mactaggart.livejournal.com]

Moira comes down to see how badly Nathan's hurt and she's caught a little bit off guard by what he got hit with.

( Maybe Americans used the term 'coatrack' for something else. Like 'house' or something equally as big. )

Scott and Jean, Tuesday night

[x-cyclops.livejournal.com]

Another red-haired doctor checks on her significant other, although Scott is in considerably rougher shape than Nathan.

( Don't know that I can make it upstairs on my own... )
