[Greetings, new members of Abax City. Have one Erik Lehnsherr watching the screen of his phone, propped up on a table. He's seated, hands sitting easily on his knees, which are splayed out

[Someone finally kind of got the idea of the phone. He'll just start laughing at you, Erik. Laughing forever.]

[token_vengeance]

[Even if you didn't share his face, Burke, he'd totally want you dead.]

[orange_balls]

[So cruel.]

You're a right nut, you know that dontcha? Besides I get the feelin' you wouldn't like workin' along side me, hm?

[Erik snorts.]

Considering your erratic behavior and obsession with sharp objects, no.

[Wow.

He had not thought is possible for the man to be even more offensive than the Alex kid but this pretty much managed to top that. Charles considered any number of responses before finally shaking his head. Raven had always taken great pains to impress upon him the idea of 'if you don't have anything nice to say' blah, blah, blah.

Shoving his phone back into his pocket with a determination to just ignore it and all of them, Charles continued to slip quietly along the rail lines, trying to trace the path of the trains.]

[:( Why you gotta be like that, not his!Charles?]

Not here

[excessivehubris]

[Because you, my friend, are a word I was raised never to utter aloud in mixed company.]

Not here

[token_vengeance]

[Careful there, I might start thinking you like me.]

Who says we have not?

[Erik flexes a hand, and shakes his head.]

None of us have any answers, yet--beyond that we've been captured. Given 'numbers'. A means to strip identity away, as well as catalogue.

[token_vengeance]

Yes.

Also an amusing attempt to make us think we're dead.

[He isn't sure what to make of that.]

I don't know what their goal is. For all we know, its simply to gather us up, and eventually exterminate.

I don't think that's what this is, but if they were interested in mutants and conducting experiments, why did they bring me instead of one of my brothers?

[token_vengeance]

Considering I have no idea who you are, you'd have to tell me, wouldn't you?

[carrytheshield]

I mean that, I'm the only one in my family without powers, but I'm the only one here.

That's weird if they were looking for people to clone.

[token_vengeance]

Maybe that's the point.

You're the unique one, out of your family.

[Well this sounds almost familiar if you take out the clone and mutant words and add caste and corruption of the council and it's almost like a certain warlord is speaking before he decided to conquer the universe instead of a revolution. That doesn't help her impression of you.]

You're assuming that you're not already doing what they want you to. They also usually are pretty blunt in letting you know they are going to dissect you for their own reasons.

[Audio]

[token_vengeance]

[And this is Erik pleasant! Before the whole messy beach thing.]

'They' are not, actually.

Captors can occasionally be incredibly pleasant until it's no longer necessary.

[prefer_solo_ops]

[How delightful. Arcee is not likely to invite him to tea then. A pity.]

[Utter deadpan] I'd be envious, but at least my captors let me know just how much they were going to interrogate me before trying to snuff me out.

How are you planning to prepare for an attack? There's likely a lot of non-combatants to worry about, and the lack of resources could make it hard to even withstand a siege if we were going into any sort of conflict?

[Audio]

[token_vengeance]

I think my meaning has misunderstood.

I'm not looking to attack, to rebel.

I am more interested in us working to find a way out.

[If that requires violence, so be it.]
