[Alex wraps his arms around Raven in a short, friendly hug from the side, arms around her shoulders. It's not even awkward, shut up, he can hug girls.]

[She's smiling and hugging him back. It's odd to have him so nice, but she knows how hard he's been working on his ability.] So Hank's suit worked?

[wreakhavokupon]

[He lingers before pulling away, a smile on his usually serious face. He can't help but feel good right now.]

Yeah, he did alright. I didn't even accidentally kill the professor. [Joke Raven, Joke!]

[meanttobemutant]

[Her eyes widen before she smiles.]

That boy is a genius. I'm glad it worked out for you.

[wreakhavokupon]

[He really does try not to roll his eyes. Yeah, Hank's a genius. A bozo, but a decent one at least. He won't admit that anytime soon.]

Might actually be able to get somewhere that isn't burning everything down, now.

[She moves in to hug him again. She really was the affectionate type.]

I'm really proud of you, Havok.

[wreakhavokupon]

[Contact is awkward, but it's Raven so he doesn't protest it much, a slight hesitance in the arms that briefly wrap around her to return the gesture. It makes him feel a funny kind of warmth whenever anyone actually praises him for his powers instead of screaming at him or locking him away. But he won't say that. Instead, when he pulls away he just grins a short, crooked grin and shrugs.]

Thanks.

[meanttobemutant]

[She's still smiling bright.]

I bet Charles was beaming.

[wreakhavokupon]

[He nodded in agreement, that rare grin back on his expression.]

I think he was kind of impressed.

[meanttobemutant]

Of course he was. What you can do is amazing, Alex.

[wreakhavokupon]

[He was officially at his compliment quota for the day. There was a little boosting swell of pride at the comment, though he tried to play it off casual.]

Yeah, I guess it's better now that I'm not setting everything around me on fire.

[meanttobemutant]

I'd imagine that would help, yeah. Are you still practicing or are you done now?

[wreakhavokupon]

Professor's working with [There's an almost unnoticeable pause as he stops himself from saying something.] Hank, now.

I was thinking, lunch.

I'm free now if you want me to make you anything. Or order out?
