fourth phase ❁ action / voice

[phasingly]

[Kitty couldn't help being a little panicked when her tiny blue friend went missing this morning. What if he's hurt? What if someone accidentally stepped on him? What if she accidentally stepped on him? Or maybe Storm tried blowing him across the apartment again

[Hanging upside down from a nearby post over Kitty, Terry listened in on the Voice entry being made.] 'Ey, you said you're lookin' fer a Nightcrawler fellah?

[phasingly]

[Kitty startles a bit at the sudden voice from above, but shakes it off quickly, looking up and taking a few steps backwards to get a better look at him.]

Please tell me you've seen him.

[schwayginnis]

Yeah, I saw 'im. [He seemed rather comfortable as he removed one hand to make an exploding gesture with his fingers.] He showed up outta nowhere--poof!--in my cereal this mornin'. Said somethin' or other about finding chick of unparalleled beauty, blah blah blah, and let her know how much she's appreciated. Then he jumped off the table and poofed away. 'Aven't seen 'im since, but figured you want to know since you've been lookin' all over and such. Name's Terry by da' way. [Even while upside down, he held out a hand to her, a grin on his face.]

[phasingly]

Well, the teleporting sounds like him.

[She closes the space between them enough to shake his hand.]

I'm Kitty. And um, sorry about your cereal. I really don't know what's gotten into him.

[schwayginnis]

Meh, I heard someone mention stuff 'bout an experiment or somethin' like dat. Maybe he's just going through a phase?

[phasingly]

I'm really hoping it's just an experiment.

[schwayginnis]

Yeah, kinda feel sorry for da' guy. I mean, experiment ends, he goes back to normal size, and then it's like a baaad hangover and everything he did comes rushin' back...oh, and every lady he "appreciated" possibly ends up irked.

[phasingly]

I'm really worried about him...

I should probably keep looking.

[schwayginnis]

Mind if I tag along? Better to have two sets a' eyes searchin' fer such a small target, amirite?

[phasingly]

I think it would be better if we spread out. I haven't looked near the school yet, if you want to start there.

[schwayginnis]

Right...the school. ...which way is dat again?

[phasingly]

It's at the very end of the central square.

[schwayginnis]

On it! [With directions in mind, he scales up the side of the nearest building and takes off across the rooftops, calls of 'Ey, Nightcrawlah!' audible every so often.]

[phasingly]

[Man, was that guy weird. But at least he's helping. That's all that really matters.]
