❝ there is mischief about. i feel it. ❞

Shaw's eyes narrowed. His brow furrowed. He went quiet, and looked back and forth. He did believe Exodus. The man was a telepath. Danger couldn't breach this place, it was too well-fortified, but mischief. . .mischief was another matter. Was it Wagner, here to bedevil him with obnoxious pranks? Shinobi, here to make some ill-attempt at murder yet again that didn't even need defenses against? Emma's feral pet from the sewers destroying some invaluable home decoration? Or-- "GAH!" Shaw exclaimed as something tugged on his trouser leg, pulling him out of thought, and he looked down to see a curly-haired, curly-horned urchin, one of Exodus's little flock of orphans. The child had the face of a cherub, but Shaw's expression suggested he was looking at a large slimy bug. "Please , sir, I need--" "YOU NEED A JOB IS WHAT YOU NEED!" Shaw bellowed at the little babyfaced beast, "DID BENNET LET YOU IN?! Bennet, keep your pet pests OUT of Blackstone! Both of you, begone! Out! Out!" They were immediately escorted away by security, not that they could have actually made the likes of Paris leave if he didn't wish. And that sweet little child never got to tell Shaw: I need to tell you that all your toilets are overflowing because my friends and I decided to see what would happen if we stuffed them all at once with your fur rugs and then flushed. @pryde-of-the-x-men @bennetduparis and tagging @bothsidesofaquestion and @emmatriarchy for muse mentions ^^

@bennetduparis​

He’s still getting used to the Ebon Siege, with all it’s terrible darkness and cursed hate. But he is getting the hang of it. Today the plan was to contact someone other than Jacks. And he had the perfect subject in mind.

Sitting on the Siege, he thinks about the old mutant knight, and his vision is drawn to an island. Not just any island, but the island. There are so many minds here, powerful ones, but he remains above them. Hidden by the Siege.

He see’s Bennett, and focuses.

“Hello? Hello? Testing, testing, one two three. Can you hear me?“

“You are remarkably well-behaved tonight...what have you been up to?”

(to Sinister)

"Whatever do you mean Bennet, I am always well behaved!"

[sebastianshaw]

“Not so fast please, I can’t understand a word you’re saying.”

"I said, nuclear energy stocks are incorporating new investments on hydrogen fusion as the future of power production that isn't solely reliant on uranium! How is that difficult to understand?!" Shaw, he knows like three of those words. @bennetduparis @pryde-of-the-x-men

 “what am i?”

"Pompous. Deluded. Hilarious." @bennetduparis @pryde-of-the-x-men

[sebastianshaw]

‘   please, i beg of you! there must be another way!  ‘

"Screw your courage to the sticking place, Bennet!" Shaw commanded,

"What has to be done, has to be done. Now be a man, and do it. Tell Ms. Dastoor you can't make it to that birthday party." @bennetduparis

‘   if i touch a burning candle, i can feel no pain.  ‘

"I've no idea if you're being literal or metaphorical, but you're being a fool either way."

"You are lamenting a strength, not a weakness. Take pride in it."

“That will be quite enough of that, thank you.”

Shaw, lacking a shirt and thus lacking a shirt COLLAR to be yanked back by, had instead been lifted aloft into the air by his ponytail. While he might enjoy that in certain situations with certain women, he would NOT be treated in such a disrespectful manner by that fool Bennett! "Put me down, you overcooked fool!" Shaw barked, "Your brats need a lesson taught, and you're not MAN enough to do it!" @bennetduparis @pryde-of-the-x-men
