Many of us have friends, family, people who we know who've had their memories taken. After many accounts and the obvious fault being this... tree in the park, I think it only makes sense to gather our collective powers and magic, intelligence and skills, to get these memories back.

I'm in. Might be new around here, but I'm not exactly the type to sit around while this sort of thing is happening, weapons or no.

[groovy_mutation]

I'm sorry to hear of your new arrival here. I hope at least you've found the essentials and a place to stay?

But yes, your help and any who would be willing will be helpful. I'm Charles Xavier, I've been here for a little while now, myself, along with many others.

video; well wtf I swore I posted this last night orz

[scorchingheaven]

Yeah, somehow, some way a few friends ended up making it here before I did - settled in with them for now.

[And a nod. There may be a flicker of recognition, but it's gone pretty quick.]

Emily Madsen, sir. Don't know how much I can honestly give you guys outside maybe a bit of firepower, but I can definitely try.

[groovy_mutation]

Good good.

[And there's a smile.]

Well, Emily, firepower might be just what we need. I will let you know once we've got it all figured out.

[It was like the cocktail syndrome only worse. Hearing his own voice compelled him to glance at the device and pay attention to Charles' message. Ever since what had happened in the park, Charles had been keeping a low profile. Mostly due to being confused as hell and close to a complete mental overload.

He'd bolted back to his small room at the hospital and well ... that was private.

Charles really isn't interested in talking to the world at large, so though he opens a video feed that is open to all en-sundry, he keeps his comments to his mind.

Have a mental tap on your shields, twin.]

[groovy_mutation]

[The tap gets his attention and he'll answer back, a small questioning tap in return.]

Hello, Charles, I assume you've some information or interest in this?

Perma Telepathy

[excessivehubris]

[He winces, because there is no need to tap, twin, no shields remember? Shaking it off, he rubbed at the bridge of his nose and nodded, even as he spoke.]

I believe I have some of your friend's memories. It happened the day we found him, when I went to the lake. When that young man, Pyro was blasting at the tree like a right idiot, something happened and suddenly...

[Sighing, he sat forward and rubbed his fingers through his hair. He realized he might not be making sense, there was just so damn much going on ... Focus, focus.]

Was Erik in water when you met him? Did you tell him to ... calm his mind?

Perma Telepathy

[groovy_mutation]

[He figured it was like a handshake of sorts. A hello. He'll remember not to do so again.]

Pyro was what? Goodness... [A mental sigh. Really, he wasn't so sure what to think of Pyro, but Erik had wanted him with them, even though Charles got the distinct feeling of distrust from the boy when it came to himself. Could just be him over thinking things.]

That does sound like our first meeting, cold water and all. Are you alright though? Did it do anything to you? [There's a soft, worried touch to Charles' mind, he worries about you you know.]

[token_vengeance]

You certainly aren't doing this just for me, I hope.

video;

[groovy_mutation]

[Yes. Though a large part of him really didn't want to get his memories back for him, part of Charles thought Erik would be better off without the memories of pain and suffering.

But he knows that's selfish and wrong of him.]

Why would you ever think that, Erik?

video;

[token_vengeance]

[That's because you're a selfish jerk sometimes, Charles.]

Well you seem to care that I get them back.

I can't actually know why I'd think that, besides that I do.

video;

[groovy_mutation]

[Of course. But we all know this.]

Of course I care that you get them back, they are your memories. They're important.

[They make Erik who he is, even if they aren't the most lovely of memories at times.]

[decanonized]

So what's the plan, oh fearless leader.

[From the boy that's been alternating between sulking in his room and committing random acts of vandalism since his try to burn down the tree failed.]

voice;

[groovy_mutation]

Well, for starters, what information do you have concerning the tree? I've heard you've been there, already attempted to burn it down?

voice;

[decanonized]

That's inspiring.

[Sigh]

It's bullet proof. The ice gets slushy, but that's about it.

voice;

[groovy_mutation]

I only want to make sure we're ready before we gather a group to head there. Having a large group of people there could be disastrous without all the information we can get.

I apologize for not being inspiring enough for you, John. [Whoops, slip up. Though he does have a habit of using names, not mutant nicknames.]

So we have a tree wearing a bulletproof vest and slushy ice. Splendid. I'm guessing fireproof as well? The tree that is.

[lobotomizedhero]

Do you have a plan?

( Count me in, anyways. )

text

[groovy_mutation]

I'm attempting to formulate one, but more details from those who've already made attempts with the tree would be helpful.

I figured it wouldn't hurt to gather people for the cause before running off. It certainly never hurts to be prepared.

[lobotomizedhero]

I have tried to stay away from the tree. (Me without memories? Not good. Potentially dangerous, even. )

But I agree. Going together is a better idea than going alone.

text

[groovy_mutation]

A good idea, until we know more about it.

And this can be true, while at the same time be false. Having a group of us could end up with a bunch of us without our memories instead of just a few like we currently have. If we're not careful that is.
