[Video]

[thelittlestbub]

[She's got her head bowed, shoulders rising and falling as if she's panting. Her hair is black, with red and silver streaks in it. The wall behind her is utterly blank.

Her harsh panting comes over the audio. Jubilee has been working. The video trembles for a moment and then she raises her head.

Blue eyes are seen through stringy hair. Sweat streaks her face.

And her eyes... her eyes aren't normal. They're flat, dead, exhausted...]

Dr. Michael Xavier is dead.

[The video cuts out, with the NV being hurled across a room.]




[OOC: Jubilee has locked herself in the Danger Room. And then locked the Danger Room down so no one can get in except herself, Emma and Magneto. She's also wearing void cuffs, because... yeah. She's surging and can't be around people.

To the people in her condo: Her phone went off at about 3am, right as she got to bed and then she just left. No one saw her again until this post.

Anyone wanting to look into the shenanigans: HIT THIS PLOTTING POST]

He what?

[thelittlestbub]

Do not under any circumstances do anything. Do you understand me? It's bad enough he's dead, dammit. I cannot worry about you going in there and not coming out too.

[Ohai. Meet Jubilee's overprotective tendencies.]

I've not ever been the hands on sort. [It's hardly a promise, but he'll try.]

Why would he do this so unprepared? He- he was still unwell, yes? So why?

[thelittlestbub]

He had a plan. He did, Loki. I knew he was working on something and I asked him to wait for my shoulder and knee to heal, but he said it couldn't and I believe him.

[She swallows.]

And don't do anything not hands on, either. Just wait. Just... wait. A week. Maybe ten days. Please.

[doeswhathewants]

Why was it so urgent? [He knows she's upset, he can see that, perhaps he shouldn't press her, but he'd never been able to always do the right thing.]

To see if he returns. Like some do. But what if he does not?

[thelittlestbub]

I don't know. I don't know why he had to go in there, why he went with the damned kid... I don't know anything.

[But she's going to find out. Her tone and body language assure him of that.]

If he doesn't....

[A muscle clenches in her jaw.]

If he doesn't, then we'll find out ourselves.

[doeswhathewants]

[He inclines his head to that]

Ten days. If he does not come back in ten days.

[thelittlestbub]

If we haven't heard from him by then, you, me and Deadpool - along with Emma and Wanda if they want in - are going hunting.

Understand?

[So, Jubilee has absolutely no problem giving people targets and telling them to take them down. NONE. Also? She went after Brawn herself. She can do this.]

[doeswhathewants]

Perfectly.

[A pause] If you need any help with anything, around here or- or in general. I would be of assistance.

[thelittlestbub]

Do me a favor. In my apartment, on the fridge, there's a Thai food restaurant's menu. Ask for Kamon and tell him it's for Jubes.

I want the Khao phat pu, with pineapple. Ask him if he's got time to stop for Turkish coffee, with the standard deal attached. If you want anything, feel free.

[doeswhathewants]

..I would refrain from anything with pu in the title for food. But yes, I will do as you ask right away! [He likes to be helpful.]

[thelittlestbub]

It's fried rice with crab meat, Loki. Thanks. And like I said, get anything you want. The cash for it is in the silverware drawer.
