[snikting]

[It's been over a month now since he first arrived. Luceti isn't any homelier now than it was then. Only now he's getting restless from being stuck here so long. Pretending to ride a bike cross country in the Dome ain't exactly satisfying when it keeps stopping in one hour intervals. So maybe it's time to look beyond the enclosure. Here he goes with the journal.]

I keep hearing about these missions people are going on. I've read the advertising too. Besides being a cure for boredom, do people have a good reason for doing their dirty work? Because frankly, I'm getting a little bored myself. But playing toadie to cash in for prizes ain't exactly the way I do things.

[Good enough. He'll stick around to answer that for awhile, then head to the Rec Center. He doesn't like it when its crowded with teenagers, but when he's lucky, he can play a game of pool by himself. After some time there, he'll be running a Danger Room scenario for himself in the Battle Dome. Lots of explosions and slashing. It's really cool, okay. After some time back home checking out some of Kurt's old movies and TV shows (at least the kid had some taste), he'll make his evening at Good Spirits. He'll take them by the bottle, bartenders. He don't even need you to remove the lids for him. That's what adamantium claws are for. Just another day in the life of the Wolverine.]

[snikting]

Installed is one way to put it. [Only it wasn't exactly voluntary. And ouch is a major understatement.]

[action]

[snikting]

[Watch as he tears through laser turrets, robots, crashing walls, saw blades, and all manner of horrifying things trying to kill him. He shreds them like tin foil. By the time the simulation ends, there's nearly nothing left still functioning. He looks disappointed. He'll be exiting the scenario to head to the console for another hour. If Billy isn't somewhere he can be spotted, rest assured Logan will smell him soon enough.]

[snikting]

Like a dog getting a treat.

[Voice]

[moremoremore]

I doubt there'll be much prospects for you here thinking like that. Me, I just might try one out and see how it is. Anything's better than my old boss.

[Voice]

[faithfulflame]

Sure. And...good luck making friends with that attitude.

[What a gruff jerk. Oh wait, its Wolverine...]

[ action ]

[touchofrogue]

Oh, sure. Rustic.

[And then the floor went out from under her. AGAIN.]

[voice]

[tellmejohn]

Ah. Understandable. They've done very little to inspire individuals to enjoy working with them.

action;

[alloys]

[Unaffected:] Don't know. I don't babysit him. I'm sure he's off--[Trying to unlock the key to Luceti will all his 1940s pizzazz.]--doing whatever it is he does to keep himself busy.

[action]

[selfhelp]

[Okay, after that little display there is no chance in hell that he's going down the stairs while Logan is outside. He lurks at the top for a while, then edges his way downstairs if Logan doesn't go up to catch him first. He's assuming that Wolverine is going home, not resetting the program.]

[ voice ]

[herotypical]

We had an earthquake, once. People got worried about a disruption. But outside of some Shift madness, we've been...hah. Lucky. If you can call us that.

[ voice ]

[snikting]

Lucky's a funny way of putting it.

[ voice ]

[herotypical]

You're new here, so I'll give you some crib notes. Putting things funny ways? That's kinda my deal.

[action]

[snikting]

[Logan has incredibly sharp hearing and it doesn't go unnoticed.]

Going somewhere, bub?

[He doesn't turn around.]

[Voice]

[snikting]

Yeah? Keep you on a short leash?

[Voice]

[snikting]

Making friends ain't exactly a priority while I'm here.

[ action ]

[snikting]

So how'd the floors treat you?

[Those were new. And random.]

[voice]

[snikting]

You've got that right, bub.

action;

[snikting]

Shame. He was the first Stark I liked. [There's a double meaning there. Seeing as how his other self met Howard Stark before Tony Stark.]

[ voice ]

[snikting]

I noticed. Sounds like a bad habit.

[ action ]

[touchofrogue]

[Rogue groaned.]

Why yes, since you're wonderin' - you still suck.

[The floors did her in. AGAIN.]

[ action ]

[snikting]

Maybe next time.

[Randomizing it is just cruel. It was too easy when the floors changes on a specific pattern. Life was too unpredictable for patterns.]

[ action ]

[touchofrogue]

[She huffed.]

Maybe next time I'll see if I can steal one of Robin's grapplin' hooks.

[Her rear end is STILL SORE from that fall.]

[ action ]

[snikting]

Robin?

[A curious glance. He's no comic book fan and he doesn't remember the name of that annoying kid from his first day.]

[ action ]

[touchofrogue]

Batman's sidekick.

[She takes a swig from her soda.]

But don't call 'im that. Apparently they had a falling out.

[See how much she cares?]

He likes ta stalk the house sometimes.

[But now that Wolverine was here... maybe the scent detector would put him off.]

[ action ]

[snikting]

[At least he knows the name Batman. And he KNOWS that kid has been skulking around. He could smell him.]

The masked kid. I've been meaning to have a word with him about that.
