The Professor is Out

So I'm going to say to you now what you said to us back then. Fuck off. ((Independent Charles Xavier RP account, pre-DoFP. Please read the about and rules. Tracking "asthesegotheycomeback".))

((okay but who wants to help me give Will Graham a nice day))

((Something I just realized: Erik is completely not shocked at Charles being able to walk again.

There’s not “what the hell how are you standing” it’s just “oh hey cool you’re out of the wheelchair” and I honestly cannot tell if that’s because Erik’s had such a crazy day that he’s sort of rolling with whatever happens or there’s so much weird shit in his life that Charles miraculously being able to walk again is just Tuesday for him.))

askthetravelingtwins replied to your post: ((Let’s all place bets on what kind of...

I’d say a pheromone-releasing one, since he was very charismatic and made people want to follow him. Maybe a slight bit of hypnosis in there as well.

((Well that’s a slightly terrifying thought))

Kate was perhaps far too used to pretending that a conversation at an event like this was anything more than excruciatingly awkward. So it wasn’t terribly difficult for her to keep the appearance of a pleasant conversation, despite the fact that they were in a slightly difficult situation. 

“Oh, no you were fine. You were a little grouchy right after you fell down, but otherwise you were a gentleman… you know, a really drunk dirty wet drunk asshole gentleman.” She shrugged, before shooting him an understanding smile. “Don’t worry about it, seriously. Everyone has off days.” 

[asthesego-theycomeback]

I’ve  been having an off decade, love.

“I’m glad I wasn’t terribly difficult.” He really was. He felt bad enough about putting Hank through his shenanigans. Speaking of...Hank, right, he was trying to find Hank. Charles looked around the room. “Do you know if there’s anywhere else people might go...?”

Did it hurt?

…sorry, that was probably personal…

[bloodyhardtoarchive]

Not personal in the slightest. One part of the process made me sick already, and then the next part felt like I’d gone and set myself on fire. And speakin’ as someone who’s been on fire, that’s still tellin’ the truth.

[asthesego-theycomeback]

Did you know it was going to hurt?!

Exactly. I’m not really supposed to be where it’s not winter.

[He talks around a mouthful of sandwich.] You make it sound like a rule.

[whistleupawinter]

It kinda is? Just not official. The rest of…the way the weather works, I mean. There’s no rules or anything, but you kinda get the hang of how it’s supposed to go. 

[asthesego-theycomeback]

Hmm. [He swallows.] Been to Antarctica much?

((I’m laughing because I sent this even though a big chunk of my muses are smokers they all need to stop))

i’m picturing you sitting them all down and like “so here’s where you all fucked up”

((I mean at least Crowley and Aziraphale are, y’know, immortal and can’t get cancer.

Erik, Charles, and Klaus all really need to stop.))

Kate raised an eyebrow and glanced over her shoulder, peering around the room for the man he might be describing. “Um, no… no I don’t think so.” She turned back to the uneasy looking man. 

She knew that she knew him- and she was fairly certain she knew him from a day that he might have been too plastered to remember (or want to remember, for that matter), but holding her tongue was never something Kate was particularly good at.

“We met,” she blurted out before he had the chance to say anything more. “Like three months ago? You got drunk and fell in the mud and…” She trailed off, realizing this train of thought was perhaps a mistake to speak out loud. But there was no going back now.  “…Yeah. That was you, right?” 

[asthesego-theycomeback]

“...oh, god, you’re Kate.”

Kate Bishop. The mystery girl who’d found him drunk in the park and offered him a ride. He still had her number wedged under a lamp on his desk. He didn’t know why he’d kept it, except perhaps as a reminder that kind people still existed. “I remember...” And he remembered enough to feel embarrassed. He had the decency to look sheepish about it. “Sorry about all of that. I wasn’t exactly on form when we met.”

And he was even less on form now, if that was at all possible. He couldn’t stop fidgeting. “I didn’t say anything untoward, did I? I don’t remember a lot of what happened...I mean, you I remember, but half of what I said, uhm...” People were giving him odd looks. He realized how that much have sounded. “Well. This is quite the happenstance.”

[He nods. From the look on his face, he’s trying to figure out something that could cause that.]

A process like that can’t be easy.

[bloodyhardtoarchive]

Oh, it ain’t. Every step’s a right pain in the arse, both for figurin’ it and for experiencin’ it.

[asthesego-theycomeback]

Did it hurt?

*shrugs* A little. A lot of heat’s bad, but a little’s alright. Mostly it’s just a problem if I make it too cold and change the weather.

[asthesego-theycomeback]

Ah. Moving to blend in. Makes sense.

[whistleupawinter]

Exactly. I’m not really supposed to be where it’s not winter.
