Home Alone

Lorna was left alone at the moment. The computers here had locked everything down and as far as she could tell nothing could leave and nothing go come in that wasn't her 'father.'

This whole training was... interesting. She was learning things that she hadn't known about her powers and that was well worth it. But at the same time there was also the fact that this was two adult strangers suddenly grappling with being parent and child.

Erik, Magneto, Dad, however or whatever she was supposed to think of him as had left to do... whatever it is people like him did when they up and left.

Free to follow her own devices for however long it was, Lorna found the wine cellar and a collection of wine, schnapps and other liquors. The schnapps came in various flavors, two of which caught her eye. Peppermint and Butterscotch, the latter looked like she wouldn't be the first to sample some of its contents. (Hey, she had earned a night off!)

Suddenly alone, really alone, Lorna really wanted to talk to Alex. She went to the communications center, sat down with the two bottles and a shot glass and punched in his number, playing with the engagement ring while waiting for him to pick up.
