Situation.

[x-sparky.livejournal.com]

All right, Sarah's going to the tunnels. Alone. To hunt down some bloke called Grey Crow and his mates, and kill them.

I'm not going to sit here with a thumb up my arse and do nothing while she's there. So I'm going after her, with or without permission, and bringing her back.

If someone wants to help, I'm sure I can nick a bigger car.

Sarah is doing what?

Like hell she is. I'm with you.

Hang on a minute...

[xp_daytripper]

How many of these guys are there, and who are they exactly? 'Cause if you're reacting like that, my guess is I'm not going to like the answer. Sarah's in trouble, isn't she?

I'll be right down.

I don't know how many, but Grey Crow's bad news all on his own. Essex had him giving Sarah combat training for awhile back there... and he's military.

She mentioned something about going after him, but I thought at least she'd take Shinobi...

Re: Hang on a minute...

[xp_daytripper]

Military? And she's going alone? Is she fucking out of her mind?

Re: Hang on a minute...

[x-skin.livejournal.com]

My thoughts exactly.

THE HELL?

[x-juggernaut.livejournal.com]

I swear to God, none of you kids uses the good sense you were born with.

Or maybe you just weren't born with it. Jesus hell. When Chuck finds out about this...

Re: THE HELL?

[x-skin.livejournal.com]

Jono said "with or without permission". All we want to do is get her back safe - the staff wanna send someone to do it, all the better.

Re: THE HELL?

[x-juggernaut.livejournal.com]

You think I give a shit how much permission you need, boy?

You are NOT GOING. Period, end of statement. None of you kids has the sense God gave you, and I damn well know that the minute Chuck hears about this, you kids ain't goin anywhere or doing SHIT.

You kids go out there and do your macho bullcrap and we get folks comin down hard here again, and screwing this place up, and I swear to god, I will come down so hard on you that your head will spin.

Um...

[x-jubilee.livejournal.com]

Like, not to burst a bubble here. But are you and Sarah completely out of your trees?

See, I know you're doing the friend thing and all but do you remember when the mansion was attacked by soldiers? Do you remember just how well all of us fared in that?

So, like, nice that people are volunteering to go get killed but do you truly think for one second that Sarah is going to thank you for going after her and probably becomming very damn dead, or some kind of hostage against her.

Dude, leave it to the adults. For Fuck's sake, haven't we learnt this lesson yet?

Anyway, I'm sure the teachers will be here to mop up the dead bodies afterwards...you know, since you've felt the need to tell them you're going to get people killed with or without their permission. Oh, wait, you didn't think of that, did you? Cause you have to save your friend, like the big damn hero. Oh yeah, Sarah has a healing factor, pity none of the rest of us do.

Look, I don't know Sarah as well as you do, and I'm sure you're gonna tell me to stick it. But, like, go alone if you're going. Don't get other people killed because you felt the need to be a hero.

Stop it.

[x-jubilee.livejournal.com]

Angelo,

Stop being an idiot. Jesus, dude. You spent how long in the medlab after your last experience around the military? All this is gonna do is get people killed. Let the adults go after Sarah. That's what these X-men guys are for, right?

Dude, I seen enough people die in this lifetime...

I believe

[x-avier.livejournal.com]

Mr. Starsmore, while it is not in my general interest to outright force a student to stay on campus, your safety and lives are my first priority.

You will remain here, and trained members of the staff, if need be, will go on to Boston.

The rest of you should consider this as applying to you as well, if you should be so foolishly inclined to make the same offer as Jonothan.

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

In the immortal words of Wayne Campbell...

Are you mental?

I can appreciate not wanting to sit around and do nothing while Sarah goes off to likely get herself killed. I'm not close to her at all, but I know that I'd feel the same if Jamie, Kitty, or Angie were going off and doing something spectacularly idiotic.

That being said, have we not learned our lesson about posting things publicly where the adults can see it? Does the brouhaha over the whole underage drinking thing ring a bell? You should have at _least_ posted this in the kids' community, and even then there's no guarantees Doc McCoy couldn't have a backdoor to keep an eye out for lunacy just like this. With this journal system, assume the people you least want to see something (in this case, the adults) will see it.

I hope she doesn't get killed just as much as you do, but running off half-cocked solves nothing.

For that matter

[x-tarot.livejournal.com]

For that matter, Jono, Angelo, do you really think that we would stand by idly and not tell someone if you were to go off and be a moron?

Um..

[x-jubilee.livejournal.com]

Doug, dude. If Jono had posted this in the kids journal, I'd have totally ratted him out to a teacher.

This is all stupid.

Re: Stop it.

[x-skin.livejournal.com]

Calmer now. Sorry, Jubes, it was just a first reaction. Not like they're gonna let us go anywhere anyway, now I've realized where Jono chose to post this.

So I guess I just get to sit here and smoke, while I wait for them to bring her back...

Sarah, goddamnit, if you're reading this, you'd better come back here alive. I'll be first in line to kick your ass, assuming you're well enough.

Re: Um..

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

Well yeah, there _is_ that. But I was going to kind of tactfully not say that. *grin* Oh well.

Re: For that matter

[x-skin.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I know. Just freaked for a minute there.

I can't believe she'd not even take Shinobi along...

Re: For that matter

[x-tarot.livejournal.com]

Sarah and rationality seem to be very, very far apart sometimes.

Re: Um..

[x-skin.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Just... take us completely panicking about Sarah trying to get herself killed into account, where the stupidity's concerned? At least now the X-types know about it and are maybe doing something.

Re: Um..

[x-storm.livejournal.com]

We do. We are.

Re: Um..

[x-skin.livejournal.com]

Good. Bring her back?

Re: Stop it.

[xp_daytripper]

Fuck, I'll heal her just so you can kick her arse, if that helps. Soldiers? After last time?

Fuck. Bloody fucking hellfire.

Make room down on the back porch for me.

Re: Um...

[x-skin.livejournal.com]

We were kinda hoping to get to Sarah before it got that far, actually. The two of us together could've brought her back whether she liked it or not - she's tough, but she's not exactly big.

But we're not going. So you don't have to worry. Oh, except about Sarah, of course.

Re: Stop it.

[x-jubilee.livejournal.com]

Dude, Sarah has a healing factor, something none of us do. Well, Logan does but he's not here.

Even if Jono hadn't posted this publically, if I'd seen it, I would so have told the nearest teacher.

It is like, so not something I'd be in any way proud of but I'd do it in a heartbeat.

I will not let anyone I know die so fucking stupidly. I won't let it happen, I won't.

*calms down a bit* Sorry, this is totally freaking me out flashback wise and I think I'm gonna go sit out in the sun for a bit.

I totally understand that you're worried about Sarah and that everyone wants to help her. But there's ways of doin' that, ya know? Ones that'd be much more effective then becomming cannon fodder.

Re: Um..

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

It's cool, Skin. I mean, I don't know that _I'd_ be thinking all that clearly if it was someone I was that close to.

If you and Amanda want me to come down and keep you company, I've gotten most of my packing done.
