That thud had nothing to do with X-23.

It came from the left.

She approaches Peter from the right, crouching comfortably just inside his range of vision.

She is watching him, steady and intent.

Some may think that to be her favorite pastime.

"Yes."

"That's a cool name!" says Peter, with enthusiasm that isn't entirely on the up-and-up.

He doesn't want to hurt her feelings.

"I'm Peter."

She accepts this calmly.

"It is my designation."

Peter nods.

A beat.

"What's that?"

She just keeps looking at him.

"I am the twenty-third clone of Weapon X."

She does. It would be unnerving if Peter was more observant.

"Oh," he says, and nods. "I...don't really know what a Weapon X is."

She holds up one hand.

This would seem to be an apt demonstration.

Peter is very impressed!

"Wow. How does that work? They're in the gloves?"

She shakes her head, just slightly.

"My hands."

Blink.

He leans forward, staring at her hands.

"You mean...how does that work?"

cutting_edgex23 September 30 2007, 04:27:00 UTC
She does not look confused, but that doesn't mean she isn't.

"They retract."

"Into...your hands."

This would be the sticking point.

She nods once.

"My arms."

They are foot long claws. Of course they retract into her arms.

Peter looks bewildered. Possibly because he is.

"How'd...how'd you get them? I mean -- were you born with them?"

cutting_edgex23 September 30 2007, 04:31:14 UTC
She considers this, retracting the claws almost absently.

There is a little bit of blood on her gloves.

"They put the metal on."
