professorstarlord:

her laughter sounded wheezy, all things considered but a grin no matter how distressed was better than a full on breakdown. rubbing his thumb mindlessly along her knuckles he let out a breathy half-laugh. “that was a really good, subtle way to ask i can’t believe it was ruined like that. promise i didn’t tell the kids that you’re just a giant lesbian that just the casual mention of getting any action get the better of you, though they are worried.” he gave her hand a squeeze before moving to pick up the cup of jello sitting on her bedside. “i absolutely had to come to maintain my throne of best ex-husband in the universe, no, but of course i was worried you idiot.” peeling back the foil covering and folding it into a makeshift spoon, he bit into orange jello only to taste disappointment. “this hospital is torturing you, but no. i’ve asked around but none of my usual connects have heard from her. i don’t know, neither.. a little bit of both. when was the last time you’d even heard from her?”

“it was great, totally discrete. i honestly barely picked up on it myself, you’re truly a master with wordplay peter.” she teased. “i’ve known you forever and you just never cease to amaze me. its honestly not fair your moment got ruined like that.” she said with another laugh. “is it not obvious that i’m a giant lesbian? i’m glad i’m hiding it well enough from them then.” she sighed at his next words, resting her head back onto her pillow. “tell them not to worry about me. i’ll be okay and even if that’s not true, still tell them that.” she said. “they have bigger things to worry about than mom, right now.” she gave his hand another small squeeze. “as much as i hate to admit you, you probably are the best ex-husband in the universe, not a lot of the guys would have stuck around the way you have.” she eyed the orange jello as he bit into it, her eyes going wide. “peter---they mix my pain meds in with that.” she said, too late after he’d already taken a bite. “but yes, it tastes like shit. before they add anything, i asked for lime but aparently they don’t carry it here. who knew i had to go to the other location to get the jello i want. a few days before the attack happened, we were going to go out for lunch on the 15th but i’m guessing we’ll have to postpone that now.”

      after tirelessly trying to explain the complications in his and kitty’s relationship, peter slumped in an uncomfortable hospital chair until he overheard two nurses who said that she had woken. using his own children as a distraction, quill snuck pass the head nurse and into the room kitty had been assigned too. the room was dim and he closed the door softly behind him to prevent any of the nurses from catching onto him right away. as he stepped up to kitty’s bed, his brows grew together in concern as he took her hand in his. peter hated hospitals since he was a kid, but there was an awful necessity to hospitals that he had come to know. “jesus fucking christ kitty, you’re usually the one on top of things what were you doing?  @professorpryde​

kitty sighed, shaking her head. “i don’t know peter.” she said, giving his hand a small squeeze. “I was distracted, i suppose. all your talk about carpet hunting just got me so worked up.” she said giving a pained laugh. she was glad that peter had stayed in her life after everything had happened, she may not have loved him in a romantic way but she certainly loved him as a friend, at his point he was probably her best friend. “you didn’t have to come you know.” she told him. “i would have understood.” kitty covered a mouth as a fit of violent coughs escaped from her. “have uh-you haven’t heard from illyana have you? i was hoping she’d stop by. is that stupid? or selfish?”

Text II Sunglasses Boi

Kitty: Hey Scott, I'm sure you've heard by now but I'm not gonna be around for a while.

Kitty: I just wanna make sure I still have a job when I get back, I know the kids gotta learn and shit or whatever but I just don't want to be replaced.

Kitty: I can teach from the hospital bed if I need to!

Kitty: I just don't know what I'm going to do Scott, I'm so scared. Not just of the job thing but of what's going to happen to me.

Kitty: Sorry for spamming you.

“ that is SUCH a bad idea , “ castor laughed. “ i love it , lets do it. “ they shove their hands into their pockets , a bright smile on their green face.

kitty gave her nephew??? a warm smile, head resting on her pillow. “your dad’s gonna freak, i hope you know that. its nice having a man on the outside though to pull off my nefarious pranks.” she said with a light pained laugh. “so just make sure to record it okay? i don’t wanna miss out on that quality content. i’m gonna need it, they’re saying its gonna be months before i can go home.”

“jokes on you, kat-astrophe, my gift is invisible. it’s unconditional love and you’re smothered in it and you’re welcome.” flashing her a toothy grin, peter excused himself from the kids table. “i’m totally kidding – about the gift part not the love part. either way, how’s the carpet hunting going?”

“sounds like a pretty bad gift to me.” she teased, with a small shove.”that’s what i’m getting you too then. my love and only my love.” kitty’s eyes widened and she shoved him again. “its going uh-not great. i mean i suceeded the other night but mari saw me out with her so i’d chalk that up to pretty bad luck.”

thanksgiving is a time for giving thanks // @professorpryde

all things considered, there were very few ways to mess up a holiday all about food. after being banned from the ?? ox?? cord, quill opted to start a number of pie-eating competitions with some of the mutant children because he was here for a good time not a long time. between matches, he caught sight of one of his wives, technically ex-wife but that was neither here nor there. “kitkat!! what’d you get me for the holiday?”

kitty turned to face her ex-husband, a look of amusement on her face. “oh, i didn’t realize I was supposed to get you something for thanksgiving, is that new tradition or something?” she asked with a raised eyebrow. “’cause if so you should probably give me my gift first.”

“The party’s indoors, what are you doing out here?” Scott turned to face the incoming sound of footsteps with a raised brow. He was never really one for big crowds at all, just Christmas alone with his extended family was bad enough let alone Thanksgiving with everyone else’s family too. Hence why he found himself out here in the cold, away from it all, leaning against a wall and relishing in the slight break it gave him.

“I could hardly stand to sit in there and watch ‘Yana and Dani snuggling up together.” she sighed, leaning up against the wall next to Scott. “I mean---I know I shouldn’t be jealous, ‘Yana is supposed to be my best friend. Its just hard not to think about how different things might have been if I hadn’t gone to space and threw myself into a relationship with Quill, y’know? If I had been honest with ‘Yana from the start about how I felt. So now instead I get to be the crabby lady who complains about everyone elses relationship at the family get together.”

“No, it’s not every parent. Some are… oddly understanding. Others want to say something, but really don’t have anything to back their words up except for prejudices.” She listened to her talk about Emma with an amused smile. “Sounds like someone has a grudge.”

“Well I’m glad they’ve treated you well, I know you’re doing your best. That’s all they ever have against us is unfounded pejudice, all we do is help them and they still hate us because we’re different.” kitty shrugged her shoulders. “Its hard not to hold a grudge when the first time you meet a person they kidnap your new teammates, side with that creep mastermind and then cause one of your teammates to kill some of the others and then die herself.”

     "you’re doing great things,” she said with a soft smile. she knew scout didn’t prefer to fight but mari truly respected the sacrifice that she chose to make but still doing so. “you might be onto something there! she couldn’t possibly pull you away from a tv contract with the possibilities of a spin off, but i don’t think you’d fine true everlasting love because its been thirteen seasons and i still don’t know where they’re finding the possible love interests.”

“sometimes it jus’ don’t feel like its even enough ye know? its like one step forward, then two steps back with the humans. we try and help and then somethin’ jus’ happens to ruin everythin’ again.” she said with a heavy sigh. “if my parent’s coudn’ do it why the hell would i be able to? hey i gotta find love somewhere, i gotta tell ye, its not fun bein’ 22 and all alone.”

ironmari:

      the grin she had fell away to a look of seriousness at the confession she hadn’t expected. “i mean sure, whatever you need. oh, i feel like i missed out because i didn’t get a look at her. is she, like, your lover? the dress you were wearing looked amazing on you by the way i hope i can borrow it sometime.” the last thing she had expected was for the conversation to be turned back on her. “well.. it was the weekend, you know. it’s time for weekend things and getting free drinks.”

“i wouldn’t exactly call her my lover, it was more of just one of those things where i see her all the time and something happened and most likely will never happen again. you really think so? i wasn’t sure how i looked, i was going to ask quill for a second opinion but i forgot i blocked him on snapchat for spamming with with catsuit bitmojis. you’re more than welcome to borrow it anytime you need!” kitty’s eyes narrowed at mari’s words. “last i remember mari you were turning 19, did i miss a few years or are you drinking underage?”

can’t phase me ↬ @professorpryde. )

      “Professor Pryde, this may be a tad bit out of place but it’s been eating away at me. Were you out in the city last weekend? More specifically at Venom nightclub? I’m pretty sure I either saw you or your doppleganger and either way I’m concerned about the form of that lapdance you or they gave the bouncer.”

kitty’s eyes went wide at the question, before nodding her head slowly. “i---yes, that was me. i was very drunk and she was very cute.lets uh-lets keep this just between the two of us though, yeah? i’m not sure how well it’d go over if people knew i was going out like that. besides, what were you doing there?”

“I have to say I really enjoy the look on the parents’ faces when they see who’s teaching their children.” She mused, smiling to herself.

“i mean it can’t be that big of a shock to some of these parents, i mean a few of them were taught by emma frost right after she joined. while yeah, you may be just a little bad, comparitively i think you teaching here is tame in comparison to her. it is kind of her whole fault jean almost destroyed the universe.”

thomasrhxdes:

Thomas had found himself playing some new game while wandering through the hallways of the rather large building. As soon as he made a turn he bumped into someone and he dropped his handheld device. “I’m sorry…” He said quickly as he leaned down to pick the device up and make sure that it wasn’t broken or anything like that. “I should have payed more attention to where I was going.”

kitty stumbled forward a bit but otherwise kept her composure, turning to him with a raised eyebrow. “hey, don’t worry about it. i’m okay, you’re okay right? didn’t break your game did you?” she asked. “i know how delicate all those things are nowadays.”

“It’s utterly ridiculous the amount of students that think it’s okay to skip Danger Room. These simulations are real possibilities. If you can’t even bother to show up you’re simply not cut out to be an hero or even live in a day to day world where these things happen.”

“i very distinctly remember not being allowed to skip. i tried to skip once and scott literally tried to drag me there by the ear, it didn’t work of course---but it did scare me into going at least.”

Katherine gasped playfully, holding her hand to her chest. “Gaudy! My shoes are not gaudy! How dare you mom?” Unable to keep up the act the brunette burst into a fit of giggles, her grin wide

kitty grinned playfully, pinching her nose. “hey its not just how they look, they smell too.” she teased. “from now on take those things off outside!”

spacesnerd:

“Oh come on I didn’t know it was you. I was thinking it was Kat or someone else.“ He rubbed his side before letting out a long sigh. “Don’t punish me like that, I’m twenty-one not five years old. Cant the best mom in the world let it slide this time?“

“Alright I’ll forgive you, just this once though and only ‘cause I’m flattered.” she grinned. “I figured you though it was her, though you really shouldn’t talk to your sisters like that either. Its not good for uh-sibling development. At least I don’t think it is.” she shrugged. “What has you so jumpy anyway, you’re not uh-looking at porn are you? Because that stuff isn’t good for you. It creates unrealistic expectations of what sex is. You and your father did have have the sex talk right?”
