I have a very important announcement to make. One that everyone should pay attention to.

And it is that there is a very important birthday among us. I don't know if he told anyone, but everyone's about to find out.

IT'S FLETCHER'S 11TH BIRTHDAY TODAY!!!

So, guys, some of us have ignorant neighbors, and people in general typically suck.

What's the worst thing someone's ever done or said to you when they found out you were a mutant? And what did you do in response?

[He looks like he's a little banged up, but he's grinning. He's got a spiffing new haircut, but the style is the same as ever. It's just a bit shorter.]

So I'm back again. This time with a lot less me getting my ass kicked.

Did anything get blown up while I was gone? Anyone get kidnapped? Anything else interesting?

[He's in his room, standing away from his webcam. He's looking a lot less farmer boy/refugee, and a bit more like a kid that's been living in New York for a while. There's a pile of posterboard laid on the floor in front of him ( Read more... )

So another one of the traitors has decided to drag himself home with his tail between his legs.

I owe a few people some apologies. I'll try to get around to all of you, but I have one very important thing I need to do that will take some time.

[Text message to Fletcher]
Where are you?

[He's a bit shaky.] Uh. Guys? We lost somebody.

I just found The Great Attractor under what's left of a car. She was probably making it float when the explosion hit.

[There's a variety of Dr. Pepper cans arrayed on the desk in front of the counter.]

Well, look at these self-serving assholes. Does Tony Stark really need to sell his face onto soda cans? Really? He's one of the richest men in the world. And can the rest of them get any more narcissistic?

[Now, it's this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LH7ZiVuxrHE but the actual music video, not... whatever that is ( Read more... )

[It's a video post, but at first all you can see is this video. Yes, it's meant to be ironic, and y'all gettin' trolled ( Read more... )

Fletcher and I are going to find our father. We won't answer our phones.
