IM conversation.

With this post in mind.


Piotr : John, is this you?
John : This is me.
Piotr : I did not know you came on here... how are you?
John : I still have all my IM names and shit. People can contact me. I've had a talk with Marie, and Kitty just sent me an email...congratulations, by the way.
Piotr : Oh... congratulations?
John : You and Warren Worthington the Third.
Piotr : ... Oh. Katya told you? You are seriously wanting to give me congratulations?
John : Kitty told me, yeah. Seemed a bit...concerned. And yeah, well, now I'm evil and all, I probably should congratulate people when they break people's hearts.
Piotr : I did not mean to. I did not want that at all John. I did not even know she liked me more than a friend.
John : I guess. You're not exactly great when it comes to matters of the heart, it seems. But then again, who is?
Piotr : Fine. If that is what you think. You are not either. You hurt us when you left.
John : You'll get over it.
Piotr : You don't know that.
John : Neither do you.
Piotr : No, but right now I still miss you a lot.
John : I'm sorry, Piotr.
Piotr : You are? Are you really happy there, John?
John : Happy's a relative term.
Piotr : What?
John : Well. Happy isn't always what you think it is.
Piotr : I am not sure what that means. I am sorry...
John : That's okay.
John : Maybe you can get Warren to explain it to you. ;)
Piotr : Well, okay.. hang on...
John : ....Oh jeez, now?
Piotr : Well I want to know what you are talking about. He is just on the other side of the room.
Piotr : He says "Christ. Let me think". He put his head in his hands. Maybe he does not understand either. ;)
John : It's complicated.
John : Basically it means that what makes you happy might not make someone else happy.
John : And sometimes you think you're happy, but you're not.
Piotr : Oh. I understand that I think. Does that mean you think you are happy but you're not for real?
Piotr : Or you are just a little happy in a different way then how you were happy here?
Piotr : Warren said maybe you were happy here with your friends but you were not using your powers how you wanted to... and.. I just wanted to know if you are okay.
John : I thought I was happy at the X-Mansion.
John : I am okay. I'm okay. Trust me.
John : and well, I wasn't happy with all my friends.
Piotr : But John, Magneto wants to kill all the non-mutants!
Piotr : Because you and Bobby and Rogue argued a lot?
John : Yeah, something like that.
John : Drake and Rogue and I...we were a real big barrel of laughs.
John : You know what they say about three being a crowd...okay, maybe you don't.
Piotr : Sorry. Can you explain?
John : It's a saying: Two is company, but three's a crowd.
John : Drake and Rogue were fine with each other....I made things complicated.
Piotr : You felt left out because they were dating?
Piotr : They are not dating anymore, by the way.
John : Yeah, I know.
Piotr : Was the problems really that bad to make you leave?
John : I didn't want to stay.
John : I had other problems, too.
Piotr : You can tell me them if you want. Maybe I can help... even if you did not like it here, shouldn't there be somewhere better to go?
John : There are only two games in town, Piotr. The Prof or Magneto.
Piotr : Yours likes to kill people.
John : Sacrifices have got to be made.
Piotr : Sacrifices? He was going to kill all the non-mutants in the world. What was that going to be a sacrifice for?
John : Making us safe, I guess.
Piotr : No. That is shit, John, and you know it. We are not treated good by most people but it should not come to something like that. Do you really want to kill them... are you going to want to fight us if it comes to that?
John : I don't know, okay?
John : I just don't know.
Piotr : Okay.. I am sorry really... I do not mean to get like this, but I am just scared I guess. Things were not too bad until.. all that happened. And now you are with them, and you are like... family. You know?
John : I think you just want a younger brother, so you turned me into it. ;)
Piotr : Haha.. Maybe so. You would make a good younger brother. ...I used to have a brother, his name was Mikhail.
John : What happened to him?
Piotr : He died. He was a cosmonaut and they crashed.
Piotr : Did you have any brothers or sisters?
John : Yeah.
John : Lots.
John : Good Catholic family.
Piotr : Why do Catholic familys always have a lot of kids?
John : Birth control is considered to be against God.
Piotr : Oh.... God has a lot of rules.
Piotr : Do you miss them?
John : Some of them more than others.
Piotr : You are the only mutant of them?
John : Yep.
Piotr : Ms. Braddock listed you for an writing class. How are you going to take a class if you are not here...
John : Apparently I can do it via the journals. Go me.
Piotr : Good luck. Did you see her poem assignment? It looked hard.
John : I did indeed. I'm not touching it.
Piotr : Me either. I like to read poems but I do not think I could write one. Unless it was in Russian.
John : Uh. Maybe you could do that then.
Piotr : She could not really grade me because she would not be able to read it. That might be a good idea. Magneto does not have classes for you?
John : He has classes....kinda.
Piotr : What are they of?
John : Just. Talks. About stuff. Politics and history and philosophy.
Piotr : Oh... so it is just you four? It sounds kind of lonely.
John : Well, we're getting new people soon, I think, but yeah.
Piotr : Oh. I just... I better go, John. If you ever want to talk to me just email or find me on here. Okay?
John : Okay. Thanks.
Piotr : Take care of yourself. Goodnight...
John : Night.

Ah.. because I am such a stickler for details, when Piotr mentions Mikhail and says he crashed, he should have said that their craft went missing.. something along those lines. They don't know what happened to Mikhail, and he's presumed dead. (And Bonnie had just helped me out with this bit of info, because I didn't remember Mikhail in the comics, yesterday afternoon!) ^^; Just wanted to clear that up for anybody who reads.
