Rockslide in the mainbar

Dec 01, 2010 11:25

There is a dark booth in Milliways and from it's Stygian depths comes a deep gravelly voice.

"I am the terror that rocks the night...."

"In darkest gloom, in deepest fog, let all bad dudes fear my rockin' might..."

"I. Am. Rockslide..."

"Here I am to rock you like a hurricane..."

That last might be accompanied by head banging but you'd have to dare the ( Read more... )

Should it be snowing indoors? And only over one dark booth? Or maybe it's one dark booth, and the one next to it that is merely dimly lit?

In the dimly lit booth, a young mutant is creating a mini blizzard on the table top, amassing a nice pile of fluffy white snow. Whether he has plans for this snow remains to be seen. Is it colder in here that it was earlier?

Maybe but Santo's a little focused right now, freaky as that may be.

"It's time to get rocked...nah, that's stupid."

"Nah, the terror that rocks in the night was WAY stupider."

Bobby says it almost off-handedly, over his shoulder, while he works.

"You trying to write a song, or something? ROCK n' roll isn't meant to be taken literally."

Santo looks up then and does a double take. Shoot, teacher!

"Oh...um yeah that's it Mr. Drake," he says as he yanks off the hockey mask. Of course the fake mustache might still give him away if not the two baseball bats strapped to his back.

THAT gets his attention. He stops the snow and turns around to look over the back of the booth.

"Do I know you?"

It might be of interest to note that this version of the icy mutant is still a teen and looks very confused.

Santo blinks a few times when he gets a better look at "Mr. Drake". It might be worth noticing that the hulking rock giant is wearing tights of a certain yellow hue.

"Dude, freaky. You're, like, my age! Wait, Ms. Frost said people from different times come here, I must be from your future!"

"Wait...you're a mutant? I keep running into people who know me...but not me. Are you related to Ben Grimm?"

"Yeah!" Santo says with enthusiasm. "No. I mean, I'm a mutant but not related to Ben Grimm. I'm Santo and you're one of my teachers...err well, you might be?"

"As if! One of my first days in this place, HERCULES came up and hugged the crap out of me and said we'd been on some team together. Then some other people said the X-men had like...a bajillion members, but it's practically the same year I'm living in, now."

He shrugs and shakes his head.

"There are only five of us in the X-men where I'm from--from what I can tell, someone hit the reset button in my universe. From what I've been told, I'm still awesome in the other ones, though."

Tell him how awesome he is!

"Yeah you're pretty awesome...except when you freeze my shorts to get me to shut up in class. I don't have many classes with you though."

He snorts and rolls his eyes with amusement.

"Some sucker put me in charge of TEACHING? They must've been desperate."

Still, it's good to know he's still awesome in all of his incarnations.

"What do I teach? Math?"
