I hear the voice of rage and ruin.

Yesterday was a wreck of a day.

There was a huge drama-blow-up amongst the grade 8 students. The grade 9s could not focus to save their lives. The grade 12s would continuously talk back or whisper behind my back. This is not normal behavior from them. At all. I though maybe I'd gone and done something wrong, because it was just so ubiquitous.

[I have a small obsession with this scene in "X-Men: The End"...and their kids kind of forced their way in here. I APOLOGIZE FOR NOTHING.]

"Kiss me, Remy."
"Please don't go, Anna, please don't go, please, please, please --"
"A real kiss, damn you. One...last...time..."

Her body is limp in his arms, and the sort of tears he'd never thought he'd ever have to shed are still falling. They're X-Men, dammit. They write their own endings -- it's the rule, it's always been the rule -- and this was not supposed to be theirs. He and Anna were supposed to raise Bekka and Olivier in Valle Soleada. They were supposed to finish the vaguely white picket fence existence they'd started. They were supposed to watch their kids grow up. The two of them were supposed to end up with grandchildren to spoil rotten. They were supposed to grow old together and live happily fucking ever goddamn after ( ... )

Like as not I'll be along soon. *sobs* Oh, God, my HEART. *sniffles and wibbles*

I feel a bit sorry for any bullies that mess with Bekka and Olivier in future, though. Actually, I feel a LOT sorry for those theoretical bullies.

But OW MY HEART AND LEAKING EYES.

Mission. Frigging. Accomplished.

Oh dear GOD yes. Mystique will be the most frightening momma bear ever. Anyone who so much raises a hand to the kids is going to end up dead. Can you imagine parent-teacher interviews with her? :)

If anything though, bullies should fear them. If you go by the GeNEXT canon (the 'official' followup to to "X-Men: The End", both kids pick up on their mother's powers. While Bekka goes off on her own, Olivier stays at the mansion and is trained alongside his friends by X-23. I'd be scared of them too.

OH MY GOD I AM SO GLAD YOU HURT. Mainly because, as always, it means I'm doing something right.

Trained by X-23? And she doesn't kill her students out of exasperation that they can't match her genetically engineered amazeballsness (shut up, it's totally a word... now)? I still think it's funny that an Evo original character made such a mark on so many comics 'verses.

Yes, you wrecked me, you win. :)

Yup. She is an absolutely VICIOUS instructor, and enjoys it far too much for her own good. The only time she gets really, really exasperated is when the kids pulled the "it's only a training exercise" card. Hooo-boy.

That makes two of us that are surprised by her impact. I don't really mind it thought. Her solo title is actually pretty freaking good right now, to be honest, but that's neither here nor there.

*throws up peace signs* Thank you and GOODNIGHT everybody!

SURVIVAL TRAINING DOES NOT EQUAL TRAINING EXERCISE, DARN IT, YOU IDIOT CHILDREN, WHAT THE HELL, ARE YOU STUPID? Or something like that?

*waves* Oh, by the way, apropos of nothing, here's something you might like.

Perhaps I should worry that Laura's head was that easy to get into, without having read any of the comics which feature her at all, ever.

Naah.

MUA HA HA VENGEANCE IS MINE!

*ahem* I mean, sweet!
