Other Annoying Traits: Even worse then the sue, the author just ignores Lance because it interfers with Kitty/Kurt. Also, I have no idea why, but Wolverine shows up, like, once. Scott's also completely useless. Kurt's been turned into a compete womanizer who only thinks about food.
Please include a small sample of the worst of this story:
Kurt thought hard. There was something that was digging at the back of his mind.... What was it? It was driving him crazy... Oh, yeah! he remembered. "Vhat do you look like now that your powers are...uh...turned off?" Kitty rolled her eyes at him; was that all he thought about? Not in canon. Mneme raised an eyebrow at his choice of words. She didn't even know, but she took off her hood. Her long, curled auburn hair fell over her shoulders elegantly. Her skin was just like the moon: Pale and soft and full of craters with a soft glow about it. Her eyes were an icy storm gray, piercing and full of tension. Her lips were a lavender-blue color, as if they were frozen. Her face was pretty, with high cheekbones and smooth features. The mere sight of it was intimidating; she looked like the beautiful, cold-hearted mage from the German storybooks Kurt's foster parents had sometimes read to him. Okay. I googled "mage german story book" and nothing came up. I asked my brother who's very fond of German culture and he had no idea. Just... Why is beautiful cold hearted mage assoicated with Germany? Am I missing something?
"That's quite...an unnatural color for someone..." Kitty said timidly, not sure how else to describe it. What? Pale with blue lips? Gurl, I'd look at the furry blue boy standing next to you. Hell, look at someone who froze to death. Staring out at the others, Mneme saw their confused and suprised expressions. Why? Between Nightcrawler, Beast, and Mystique I don't know why they'd be surprise at a victim of frostbite. They clearly agreed with Kitty. Furrowing her brow, she grinded her teeth back and forth. How could she be so blind? She knew they would never like her. AW. POOR YOU. NEVER MIND YOU ARE NO WHERE NEAR THE STRANGEST ONE IN THE ROOM OR EVEN CLOSE TO THINGS THEY HAVE ENCOUNTERED.
"I'll be in my room." Mneme murmured angrily, pushing back in her seat and stalking off, leaving the rest of her tofu. I never saw a mention as to why tofu.
"Mneme, wait..." Storm called to her, following her from the table along with Xavier and Beast. The students looked after them, not sure what to do.
Rogue snorted. "Just another drama queen." I agree.
"Don't say that!" Jean told her. "Just because she doesn't like to be treated like a freak doesn't mean she's a drama queen." I think I missed the part where she was treated like a freak.
"Kitty didn't help much," Evan pointed out. "Saying that her skin is an unnatural color was just cruel." I don't follow this logic. If her skin was an unnatural color then it would just be stating the obvious. Since when is that cruel?
"What was I supposed to say? 'Where'd you get your tan?'" Kitty protested. With a groan, Kurt put his fingers in his ears and teleported out of the fanfiction because he valued having a life not centered around the sue. .
"She's a drama queen, and that's all there is to it." Rogue argued. "Anyone who storms off like that is just doing it for attention."
"Did you see the way you were staring at her? It was like she was a slug or something! You can't tell me that you would feel normal with a group of people just staring at you."
"What are you talking about? I wasn't staring! I couldn't care less about that girl. She acts just like you and Kitty."
"WHAT?!" the other two girls said in unison.
"You heard me. She's going to be one of those preppy, smart, popular girls, just like you two." I like how this turned from Rouge calling the chick out on her completely childish behavior to Rouge just being ~jealous~
Evan shook his head in disbelief and walked over to a sleeping Scott and shook him awake. Oh, you know Scott. The leader. Who'd be pretty damn interested in a new person joining their team. "I'd be going if I was you. There's a cat fight starting and I think the tofu Why? will be flying any second." Scott looked over at the girls and nodded. Because OF COURSE Scott wouldn't try to calm things down. He stood and slowly followed Evan out.
Logan said to himself, "Well, I think that went well." He stood and left the table, because OF COURSE showing how Rouge was SO WRONG to call out the sue is the most important thing leaving the others to bicker amongst themselves. He made his way to the front door and went outside and left the fic for good.
Outside of Mneme's room, Storm convince the two men that it was better for her to talk to Mneme alone. Once Ororo entered the room, Mneme looked up from her corner. Tears were glistening on her white face White is not that unnatural a skin color. and her blue-gray eyes were full of sorrow and regret. She sat next to her, but she turned her face away. "Child, what's wrong?"
Mneme didn't answer. Storm wasn't sure if it was because her throat was choked up, or if she didn't want to talk about it. In truth, it was both.
"Everyone is beautiful in their own way, some with looks, some with talent." Storm started explaining. Yes. Let's tell the sue how beautiful she is. I don't recall anyone sitting down with Kurt and being all, "You know YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL IN EVERY SINGLE WAY WORDS WON'T BRING YOU DOWN." Mneme sat listening, but did not move. "I think your beautiful with both, but there's something else too." Wrapping her arm around Mneme's shoulders, Storm tried to comfort her. It seems odd for Storm to just go hug the new kid. Who is suppose to be all dangerous.
"Like what?" Mneme asked her, wondering what she could mean.
"You're also beautiful because you bring back memories."
The girl raised an eyebrow doubtfully. "How is that beautiful?"
"In the city, there are always lights everywhere. That used to bother me all the time. No matter what time of day or where you were, it was always bright out. I thought it was the ugliest thing, until one winter snow covered the ground. It was so beautiful, with the streetlights reflecting off the surface, is was like a crytaline wonderland." she told her, remembering the time quite well. "Your face looks just like that right now, glittering and beautiful." I... what? Mneme didn't know what to say. Indeed, she did feel better, but Storm also had tears brewing in her eyes. Storm was brought to tears by her beauty. I just... wow.
"Why do you think that it's beautiful?"
Storm smiled down at her and blinked the tears away. "Because before my parents were lost in an accident, that was the last trip I ever spent with them. I know how hard it is to lose your parents. It hurts to know that no one is there for you." Mneme looked down, silently agreeing with her. Ororo put her hand under Mneme's chin and lifted her face up. "But now that you're here, we'll always be there for you, no matter what." Then she hugged her tightly. Mneme wasn't sure what to do, so she wrapped her arms back around Storm in return.
"Thank you." Mneme smiled up at her. She yawned and stretched, then laid down on her side.
Storm silently left the room. When she got back to the dining hall, the girls fell silent. "I believe you owe Mneme an apology." For what? No one cared when Rogue ran screaming from Kurt, or when Jean and Scott gawked at Kurt.
When she woke, Mneme saw that Storm had left. She had forgotten how nice it was to sleep and eat. She rubbed her eye and stretched, taking a deep breath to wake her up. Energy seemed to flow through her once she stood. Her stomach made a bubbly sound and an urgent feeling struck her. What's that weird feeling?! she thought to herself, panicking. She ran to the door and dashed through it, only to find Jean, Kitty, and Rogue walking up to her.
"Listen, we're, like, really sorry about how we treated you and stuff." You made one, small comment. That's hardly treating someone bad. Kitty told her. Mneme bit her lip, trying to show that she was in a hurry.
"I guess we just kind of over-reacted," Again. One. Comment. Rogue admitted, shrugging. Mneme nodded, but sweat was now beading on her forehead.
"Are you okay?" Jean asked, feeling her forehead for a temperature. It seemed normal, but she started dancing from foot to foot and holding her hands on her bladder. "You have to go pee?"
"Whatever it is, I'm sure you're right!" Mneme said loudly. "Am I going to die?" I.... What?
"Wait--she doesn't know how to pee?" Rogue said.
"Like, yeah...that's weird." Kitty agreed, looking at Mneme with utter disbelief.
"Who's gonna potty-train her?" Rogue asked Kitty. The two girls looked up at Jean, who furrowed her brow.
"ME?"
The two younger girls nodded.
"Fine." she said, taking Mneme's hand and leading her down the hall and into the nearest bathroom. Wat.
