Mansion got trashed by mutant-hating psychos. AGAIN. Why is no one talking about this?
I tried to talk to Kitty about it, she doesn't want to talk.
Bobby's fucked up, sorry excuse of a family turn up, so he comes running to me for reassurance that It's Okay To Be A Mutant. And that's fine- but he doesn't seem to be able to talk about the attack, either.
Warren's wing is fucked- he can't fly. No one's talking about that.
Meg DISAPPEARED and everyone thought she was dead, but maybe she just teleported. Nothing.
Keller, whose mouth is almost as big as his ego was out almost as long as me, and I haven't heard a peep from him.
I know people are angry, but I guess I just want to know if anyone else around here feels the same way I do?
Because at the moment, it feels a lot like the last time this happened. Like we aren't doing enough to defend ourselves and our kind. Like maybe we need to be a little more Erik Lensherr and a little less Charles Xavier at times like this....
I know when I came back to this school, that chapter in my life was over. But there's a part of me that wishes I could be there when Magneto retaliates. And he will retaliate. It'll be big and bloody and he'll make a lot of people sorry they were ever born. It freaks me out a little that I'm itching to see it happen.
But I know I won't ever be a part of that. When I threw in with everyone here and fought to defend this place, I drew a line in the sand- for myself, for those Friends of Humanity assholes, and yeah, even for Magneto.
This is who I am.
Ex terrorist,
bookslinger,
school assistant,
Kitty's Pryde's boyfriend.
NOT in the X-Men
NOT in the Brotherhood.
Maybe Keller is right for once- maybe I am a pussy now.
But if I had to do it over again, I wouldn't change anything.
