[Greetings, Siren's Port. The face you'll be seeing is one that vanished from the Port a few days ago, but more than that it just... looks different. Older and younger all at once, free of the weight and pain that had been lining it before, the stress and insanity. Instead, in its place, is pure relief. As if the weight of the universe had been lifted off his shoulders.

Oh. And he looks like he might have just fallen through a window.]

Siren's Port? I'm really... this is the Port? Again? Now...? [His voice is strained, shaky, as if he's just about to completely lose control of his emotions] How... how long was I gone? Was it that long? Days? Months?

Is everyone still here? Jack? Washu? Jubilee? All you angel blokes?

... Rose?

Not that I know of, but I've been keeping my head down. Seems the feathered crew doesn't like me much these days.

[A shrug.]

Couple weeks ago, everyone got hit with sins, but that was fun.

[Hey, she enjoyed it. She doesn't know about the rest of you.]

Oh, I wouldn't take that too personally. If there's one thing that stays true throughout history, it's that religious wars will always pop up here and there. Like they can't resist picking a fight every now and then.

[Don't get him wrong, though. He actually likes the angels and Chuck and all of them. He just... views religion of any kind with a bit of suspicion.]

That was when I was here last. Just as it ended. [His lips quirk, just slightly] Depended on which sin you got hit with, really.

Oh... It's not a war. More of attempting to pound knowledge through adamantium skulls.

[SMIRK. Because, hey, they may terrify her, but she's not about to let it show.]

Oh, I got a couple of fun ones. But that was the last major event around here.

[Adamantium quirks his interest, but he'll let it slide for now, in lieu of just smiling reassuringly at the young woman]

Everyone can be a bit thick when it comes to accepting different ways of looking at the same thing, Jubilee. I wouldn't let it bother you too much. Just keep trying, keep your chin up, and smile through it, alright? I'm sure it'll all turn out brilliantly in the end.

[Okay, that's a little bit of a curious eyebrow twitch] Fun ones?

It's what I've been trained to do. Never let them see you sweat... or something.

[Griiiiin.]

Mmm, lust and pride. Made for an interesting week.
