[ When the feed switches on, it shows Rogue seated at her desk, distractedly flicking some folded paper bits across it. She seems lost in thought, and it looks like she's been chewing on her lower lip a bit more than is healthy. A nervous habit, perhaps...

Go flying? I hate to break it to you, but that is not a particularly subtle euphemism for drug use.

Hate to break it to ya', but I ain't talkin' about drugs.

[VIDEO] angel_junk August 1 2010, 23:30:05 UTC

Is that so?

[ He raises an eyebrow, looking pleasantly surprised. ]

We are actually talking about aviation here?

[VIDEO] mississippikiss August 1 2010, 23:33:12 UTC

[ She mirrors the brow-raising action. ]

Not in a plane, no.

A helicopter? Hot-air balloon? Jet pack? I could offer a jet pack myself.

[ Rogue blinked, looking somewhat nonplussed, before taking a few steps back from the desk. She puts her arms out, and her feet drift away from the ground a few feet, whereupon she lifts her legs to lace together, sitting Indian-style in midair. ]

Don't have a need for any of that.

[ Deciding to be a man of few words for the moment, Bhamba gives her performance an appreciative whistle. ]

[ Rogue furrowed her brow and glanced down at the floor, and then behind her, trying to see what he was making a fuss about. After determining it was indeed her, she rolls her eyes and lets her legs down to drop to the floor again. ]

Ain't that impressive...

[VIDEO] angel_junk August 2 2010, 03:32:33 UTC

That depends. How did you do it?

[VIDEO] mississippikiss August 2 2010, 03:36:35 UTC

It's just a thing I do... [ She shrugs, tucking some hair behind her ear as she reclaims her seat at the desk. ] A genetic ability, guess you could say.

[ He can be heard muttering something about 'not again', 'drug junkie' and 'rat disease' under his breath. ]

You don't sound very happy about it.

Well, ain't all sunshine and rainbows, unfortunately. Lotta' folks in my world got powers, but I kinda' got the short end'a the stick.

[VIDEO] angel_junk August 2 2010, 21:40:21 UTC

You call flying the short end of the stick?

[ Okayandwaitaminute. ]

Wait, are you saying you were born like this?

[VIDEO] mississippikiss August 2 2010, 21:46:13 UTC

Not exactly. We're born with the genetic predisposition, but it don't manifest 'til puberty. But flyin's just... one of the better things I can do. How I got my flyin's what I call the short end'a the stick.

[ He's still thinking drugs. All the powers he's seen here so far were the result of a drug with less than appealing side effects. ]

And how was that?

[VIDEO] mississippikiss August 2 2010, 22:12:13 UTC

[ She seems somewhat hesitant to discuss, but after a few moments of awkward silence, she relents. ]

I can't touch people. When I touch someone, skin-to-skin, I end up suckin' out everything they are... memories, abilities, powers. Most of the time it won't last long, but if I keep contact long enough, I can absorb a person permanently and kill 'em. That decided to pop up during my first kiss and...

[ Her eyes look empty for a moment. ]

...he went into a coma 'til he died, eight years later. I got my flight an' super-strength from a woman by the name'a Carol. Got into a tussle, and ended up killin' her.
