d_m Prompt 10
Every once in a while, you see kids in the Nexus. As in little kids. A lot younger than Savannah. She's the youngest person I know, really. But sometimes you see little kids like the girl who escaped from the dark place, or the little boy with the plunger.
Sometimes it makes me think. I mean, I like kids, they're funny and cute and all, and I like the way everything's a wonderful thing to them. But then I wonder what it'd be like to have any of my own and I just can't see it. I mean, more than just finding somebody crazy enough to marry me and have kids with me. I don't know if I'd want to pass all this on, you know? I know albinism is a recessive trait and this soundwave thing was a freak occurrence, but maybe my power isn't. Gabriel's a mutant and so are his brother and his daughter. What would I end up passing on to any kid I might have, and what sort of trouble would that get him or her into? I don't think I could do that to any kid I might have. So maybe I shouldn't have any.
But that's so far off I can't even really think about it. Not like like the girls're breaking my door down, not with half the Nexus wanting to bomb the Shop flat.
