It was very safe to say X23 was incredibly bored. She didn't normally go to the gym for anything. Not that she couldn't use the extra training. She would rather keep her mind occupied with other things and she'd discovered she actually enjoyed talking to other people on the team and not just Wade even though he was her favorite person.

Rahne loomed in the doorway as the sound of a 'rip' and 'whoooosh' had drawn her attention as she'd been making her way to Stryker's office. It was Laura. She'd hadn't seen Laura since...well...yeah.

"Don't feel bad, I've done that at least twice by accident," she had a reassuring tone to her voice as she saw a large broom in the corner and started to try to help at least get it into one pile, not thinking twice of it.

Laura had just about given up trying to get the sand to stop pouring out of the bag. She would just have to wait it out, see if it'd stop eventually. When Rahne spoke, Laura felt just a little bit better. It didn't quite show, however. Rahne was still new so Laura was stuck on what Nori called her default setting. Stoic.

She turned to look at the woman, grateful that she'd at least had the presence of mind to clean it up.

"Thank you for your assistance," Laura stated as she brought the garbage can over.

Rahne gave Laura a soft smile.

"Hey no problem, trust me, been there, done that... Someone piss you off?"

She could still smell the adrenaline in conjunction with that odd metallic smell. Rahne just could not figure out what type of metal it was. She'd seen her claws, both sets when she'd seen Logan and Laura having a snowball fight. Rahne kept going about helping clean up as she spoke.

"Yes." If anything, Laura was honest. She was not sure if she should tell Rahne or not, nervously wiping the palms of her hands on her jeans. They itched and Laura was wondering if sand had gotten in under her skin. While she knew it wasn't likely, just the idea of something like that happening had her unnerved so she popped her claws again, examining them.

No sand. She was okay.

"I am just finding my current living arrangements problematic." She retracted her claws, the injuries healing over rapidly.

Rahne blinked as she saw Laura's claws pop out, finally seeing them up close. Damn. Suddenly she was just a bundle of questions, her eyes still lingering where the blades had come from.

"Mind if I ask who and why they're problematic?"

Rahne paused for a few ticks.

"And I have to ask, what kind of metal is that?"

"My room mate is Emma," Laura stated with a faint twitch of a smile. "I like her."

Sort of.

"It is Victor I do not much care for." As for the question about her claws? Laura looked at the back of her hand, noting the trace bits of blood between her knuckles and heading to one of the sinks to wash it off.

"It is an experimental metal, called Adamantium. Nigh unbreakable. It has to be kept in a liquid form when it's not being used to make anything. Once it sets and hardens, you cannot melt it again." She paused, looking at Rahne.

"I have more than just the two claws." Without so much as waiting to see if Rahne would ask to see them, Laura popped them all. Two in each hand, one in each foot. Shiny, no?

wolfsbane_rahne October 28 2009, 18:14:39 UTC

Emma. That was a name she hadn't heard yet. But Victor? Hm. That was interesting. She wondered why but thought perhaps that would be a little too invasive to ask. Rahne listened very carefully at Laura's explanation of the claws and the metal, actually quite astounded. Rahne was surprised at how she showed her mutation without nary a thought, not being shy at all.

"Whoa..." was all that came out in a half-whisper before she grinned. Seeing them up close was just, well she'd never seen anything like it before.

"But wait...so that means it was put there, you weren't born with it, correct?" Rahne cocked her head slightly as she tried to work out in her mind how on earth anyone could get metal *into* someone like that. Then again with mutations anything was possible.
