[no, you're not getting a reply to that. instead he's just going to...carry on juggling his stuff and head to his room. let yourself in if you get there before him, raven.]
[ Raven's pretty literally running to the lift, willing it to zoom up faster to the 10th floor. ( wow she's not gonna think about the fact that she's been here for 10 months ) eventually it's there, and he must have taken the lift right before her because oh hey there he is halfway down the long long hallway and she's not 100% sure how she knows it's him, but she knows, and then she's running, and- ]
Hey!
[ either he can turn around and catch her or he's about to be forced into the most aggressive, cling piggyback of his entire life. please don't be carrying anything sharp... ]
[turning at the sound of her voice, he only gets a brief moment to decide what to drop- his pile of clothes. not risking the jar of wax -before she's there. Still, it's a one-armed hug he offers in return, and far briefer than he thinks she'd want. But what can he say? Hugging just really isn't his thing.]
Guess there really is no way out of this shithole. [well, not for long.]
[ yeah, but even once he lets her go, she's still kinda reaching for him, her hands on his shoulders just so she can get a good look at him before she backs off again. ]
So... you remember everything? From before. You were gone a couple months. Did you remember anything while you were home? Wow, I can't believe you're back. And you're youyou. Not- like a. Copy. Or whatever.
Took a while, but yeah, itt all came back. Didn't remember a thing back home though. If it wasn't for the new number, I wouldn't think I'd been gone at all. [not when his memories of his very recent past solely include getting in to his pod and then getting back out. he doesn't remember being sent home either.]
Doesn't matter though. I'm back, and you're stuck with me again. Lucky you.
I am happy to see you, Wes. [ in that hideously selfish way ] I missed you. [ quickly; ] And, a lot's changed while you were gone. Mostly... not great things.
We should sit, though. [ which is why she's bending down to scoop up the stuff she made him drop ] C'mon. What's your number again?
[he just stands back and leaves her to it, grinning a little. the few things he wants to keep to himself are hidden in his pockets, so all she's left with is a pile of spare clothes.]
Still 199. Guess they wanted to save themselves the hassle of changing the whole tattoo.
[he waits until she's upright again before slinging an arm around her shoulders. no, it's not because he missed her. he's just...guiding the way. yep, that's all.]
You'd better be planning on filling me in. Lehnsherr's too big of a dick to do it right.
Oh, yeah. About that... [ and if her arm finds its way around his waist, it's not because she's feeling clingy, or because talking about Erik makes her feel the need to be even more clingy, or anything like that... no, it's just because it's easier to fall in step with him this way. ]
Erik's not here anymore. He vanished about two jumps ago. Not lost, he just... didn't come back after the jump. [ she shrugs as best as she can, eyes on the space in front of their feet instead of up ahead. ] Like I said, lot's changed.
[he knows what she's about to say from the way she reacts, and his own arm tightens, briefly, in response. they may not've gotten along all that great, but erik mattered to raven, which meant he mattered to him too. in a way.]
Xavier? [because as much as he didn't actually like charles, he still falls in to the same category as erik. another damn mutant who raven seems to be attached to.]
Yes, exactly. [ and she knows he was just being sarcastic, but ] Really, though. We need to stick together, okay?
And I dunno about Smiley. I haven't noticed any new posts, not in a long time, but I might've missed something. You should ask one of the techy people on board, I've no idea.

People have been coming and going a lot more recently. Not just jumps, but disappearances. People get lost and never come back, just like that.

[but good. he may not be charles' biggest fan, but for raven's sake, he glad the man is still around. well, men.
How about Smiley? He get up to much while I was away?
