Texting each other photos from wherever they are, and of whatever they're doing.
It starts out innocent, something to pass the time and loneliness whilst they're both on business abroad, but eventually evolves into something more. Something that makes them start to reassess their friendship.
In my head, I see them as two very busy and successful men. So they're often abroad and rarely get the chance to see each other in the flesh.

A/N: Because I have hilariously reduced myself to writing solely through text/msn/twitter, I’ve started running into small problems [such as how to describe action scenes]. So um. Pretend everyone tweets/msn/msgs each other when THINGS(TM) happen? \o/
Also. On the subject of twitter names and whatnot, I’ve decided to go with something that’s similar to their mutant names. But not? =D; <= *thinks its funny*
Thanks for the feedback/reviews, guys ♥! It tells me that I’m not failing too hard *___*b

Screamer4u Sean Cassidy @KaosLord Dude. Dude! You need to come back. Right now. 15 minutes ago
KaosLord Alex Summers @Screamer4u No way! Erik told me to stay with the car to make sure no one touches it. The boss hates fingerprints on his shiny new toy. 12 minutes ago
Screamer4u Sean Cassidy @KaosLord I think he can overlook that in this case. Since we might be in a tiny spot of bother. 11 minutes ago
KaosLord Alex Summers @Screamer4u Did you knock over the champagne tower again? I can kind of hear

A/N: I apologize for the huge delay 8’D I got distracted by things and RL apparently really likes throwing spanners and digging pot holes.
By which I mean, I am very sorry and I will update faster. I have plot for this now \o/. Maybe. Eventually >.> But yes, a shout out to my lovely, newly adopted minion who helped me smooth over plot holes and held my hand when I raged at my fail ♥!
I’m kind of sad that I cannot directly link the image as an actual link this anon thing is saddddddd, so please just copy and paste *__*bb [It was sadly many hours of work OTL. My photoshop skills are next to none as you can tell OTL-ing forever.]
As always, a BIG thank you for all your kind comments *____________* jOISJF. You guys are so awesome and encouraging <3

Ahhhh so then this drowning of Erik in the pond happened after Charles spilt his drink on his shirt? I kept thinking that they were referring to the same incident...
BUT HILARIOUSLY ENTERTAINING AS ALWAYS. <3 Can't wait for more!

A slow burn friendship to romance would be fab.

@Screamer4u You don’t know any grapevines! Were you eavesdropping again? I told you, that’s a stupid habit.

I’m at work?
Oh.
Speaking of which, do you know why the Professor hasn’t come into work today?
Armando Darwin M says (1:01pm)
I’m back.
And yeah, do you know why, Raven?
Armando Darwin M says (1:02pm)
The Prof’s never missed a day of work.
Raven D says (1:04pm)
….
Charles isn’t there?
He’s not buried underneath 1000000 pieces of paper and stacks of books?
Henry McCoy says (1:06pm)
No?
Originally I thought he just overslept, but it’s well past lunch now.
Armando Darwin M says (1:07pm)
Now that you mention it, lemme go check my mail.
Maybe he’s left us a message or something.
Raven D says (1:10pm)
Charles never oversleeps.
He’s disgustingly awake at stupid o’clock in the morning.
Raven D says (1:11pm)
Let me try calling him.
Raven D says (1:15pm)
HE’S NOT PICKING UP?!
Henry McCoy says (1:17pm)
Maybe he’s sick?
Raven D says (1:18pm)
He’d still pick up if he were sick!
Or rather, he would call ME!
Raven D says (1:19pm)I think he’s been KIDNAPPED OR ABDUCTED ( ... )
