I understand that it's bad form to leave during the first week of classes, but I need to visit my sist go home for the weekend.

If any of you are running drills, could you include the Paragons? A little friendly competition is mutually beneficial, no?

[...]

[Emma]

Do you still want to join me?

[Kurt]

[...] Eva does not have more sense than you, after all.

I made her cry. But she still wants to see me. I suppose I should be grateful.

[Illyana]

Could I inconvenience you for a lift to Barcelona? No obligation, of course.

The children will survive for a weekend. Honestly, I think earlier is probably better. They won't be in their routines yet.

If someone could extend the same generosity to my Hellions that would be wonderful. They're a bit of a nightmare right now, though, as a warning.

[Manny]
Of course, I wouldn't miss a trip to Spain.

[empata Manuel de la Rocha (Empath)]

You have a point. And, regardless, needs must.

The Hellions are misbehaving? Surely not.

[Emma]

[...] Naturalmente. It is beautiful this time of year, after all.

[frost_queen Emma Frost ♕ White Queen]

Yes, of course. I'm glad it's happening.

So unexpected, isn't it? I'm trying to teach them they don't have to like each other to work together.

[Manny]
I'm sure. I haven't been around this time before.

Will I get to meet your sister? No pressure, of course, simply curious.

[seeingred scott summers ⊗ cyclops]

Of course we can cover for you. Both of you. Anything we should be aware of with your students?

[empata Manuel de la Rocha (Empath)]

With any luck, they will come to like each other, but you will get through to them either way.

[Emma]

If I had put it off another two weeks, we could attend La Mercè. Lo siento.

[...] I would like you to. But I do not know how this will go.

[empata Manuel de la Rocha (Empath)]

Por supuesto. Next time I will not bother to ask. But thank you.

Kit is still reluctant to use their powers after the incident on the parkway, so they will require some reassurance, and Nina has a longstanding fascination with your optic blasts. She is positively green with envy. Though, I do not foresee that being a problem.

[frost_queen Emma Frost ♕ White Queen]

Thank you sweetheart 🤍

Amadeus and Melville are being twits, mostly. Let me know if they're being too rambunctious?

[frost_queen Emma Frost ♕ White Queen]

I told them I didn't like all of you when I arrived but they don't believe me.

[Manny]
It will be better to have a quiet city to see her. But we should go some year.

I am very optimistic, but I understand. I'll be ready to fuss over you if you have a hard time.

[empata Manuel de la Rocha (Empath)]

None of them?

[Emma]

Very sensible.

[...] I am not optimistic. But it is reassuring that you are.

[frost_queen Emma Frost ♕ White Queen]

They can tell I'm very attached to you all. Aline is trying to believe me because she's sweet.

I guess to their credit I am lying.

[Manny]
Try not to guess at how things will go, if you can help it. It's good she wants to see you.

[allhell magik 🖤 illyana rasputin]

sure just give me a minute to put my shoes on

[allhell magik 🖤 illyana rasputin]

my students are very well behaved

[empata Manuel de la Rocha (Empath)]

Ah, sí. When you arrived, it was just Kurt and I. What was not to like?

What will you tell them now?

[Emma]

I will try. [...] That depends on why she wants to see me, no?

Illyana/Manuel

[empata Manuel de la Rocha (Empath)]

Gracias. That will make things easier.

Tomorrow after classes would be better, if I am not pushing your good will too far.

[frost_queen Emma Frost ♕ White Queen]

I wouldn't be too proud just yet, darling. You've barely had them a week.

[frost_queen Emma Frost ♕ White Queen]

Exactly.

Oh, I'll keep up the lie. Maybe slander a few of you for effect. They just need some time, and I was well aware this was how things would be for a little while.

[Manny]
If I can ease your mind at all, let me know.

How is her right hook?

Illyana/Manuel

[allhell magik 🖤 illyana rasputin]

so i put my shoes on for nothing

[allhell magik 🖤 illyana rasputin]

yes, and a few of them are already showing great promise

[frost_queen Emma Frost ♕ White Queen]

Very exciting. Brava. Etc.

Mine are at least living up to their name.

Do you have a favorite, yet?

Illyana/Manuel

[empata Manuel de la Rocha (Empath)]

It certainly sounds that way.

[empata Manuel de la Rocha (Empath)]

Your willingness to challenge yourself is admirable, as always.

But sí. They will come together eventually.

[Emma]

I have no idea. But if I find out, you will be the first to know. [...] It would not be undeserved.

Illyana/Manuel

[allhell magik 🖤 illyana rasputin]

maybe i will go for a walk or something

[allhell magik 🖤 illyana rasputin]

i am not playing favorites. Blythe shows the most potential for true sorcery, however

Illyana/Manuel

[empata Manuel de la Rocha (Empath)]

[...] Would you like some company?

[blindcut remy lebeau 🃏 gambit]

I'll talk to Kit. Making a dramatic entrance is nothing to be ashamed of.
