[b]Skills:[/b] [color=DBA1DE]Mediumship[/color][/center][hr]	Veil's thoughts darted back towards Max's plan to raise the dead - and the knowledge that Mister Sinister had done so successfully with Jack. She was vaguely aware of other cases where the dead had come back to life, usually happening to the most prominent, A-list superheroes - and mages. It all then clicked into place in her head. She was angry at the X-Men for not saving their people - if she didn't do what she could to bring the dead back to them, she was no better. She made up her mind then. She would tell Max what Sinister had done. 

	Veil hugged Spark Plug back, smiling ever so slightly. [color=935DB8]"I think it might be time to spill the beans to Max with what happened to Jack."[/color] She didn't want to immediately say openly the prospect of raising the dead - so much loss had happened on the island recently, she didn't want to get people's hopes up if they were overheard. That would be worse - promising to bring back the ones they lost, only to fail. 

	Meanwhile, at the table, any chance Casper had of remembering that Jack wanted to speak to him privately had really gone out the window. He was already distracted and hyperactive on a good day - and now, his lovingly adorable James was here [i]and[/i] asking if he was ready to adopt a child. Casper felt ever so slightly faint. He didn't know if he was responsible enough to be a father - he then calmed down instantly, reminding himself that even if he wasn't ready, James was certainly more than ready. And they had talked about it and if Destiny, the weird mutant seer, said to do so, that wasn't much different than the tarot cards, right? 

	[color=DBA1DE]"Sure!"[/color] Casper blurted, before standing up from the table. [color=DBA1DE]"We have to pick a cute one though, we have standards to uphold in our family,"[/color] Casper then joked. [color=DBA1DE]"Actually though, just no straight babies... I'm kidding... Unless...?"[/color] he said. It was really hard to tell if he was joking or not, as Casper rarely took anything seriously at all. 

	[i]"Those are a hoax,"[/i] Ben said to Max, referring to his comment about the oujia board, even though only Casper could hear him. 

	Sunshine raised an eyebrow at James asking Casper about getting a kid. [color=#DAF7A6]"Are you sure he's old enough for that?"[/color] she asked, before returning her attention to her little conversation group at the table - Marrow, Echo, and technically Valkyrie, although Sunshine was ignoring Valkyrie as Valkyrie seemed to have the social skills of a baby worm. There wasn't much of a point in explaining things to her, especially as she was beeping and booping along with that weird robot thing of hers. Honestly, sometimes Sunshine wasn't even sure what Valkyrie was even [i]doing[/i] here. 

	"You should ask him out, I'm sure he'd say yes," Marrow said with a shrug. "Especially if you're on good terms with his sister, Aurora." 

	Sunshine's eyes then widened and she snorted a bit. [color=#DAF7A6]"Actually, I don't think you and Northstar can date... because there's a rumor going around that Aurora and Veil might hook-up, so it would be some twin on twin action which is a little too much."[/color][hr][b]Hellfire Manor...[/b]

	The small girl with purple hair and eyes tilted her head at Miranda. "Purple Mongoose," the girl answered, before reaching out and yanking on Miranda's hair. "Why your hair look like poop?" she then asked, referring to the brown color of Miranda's hair. Stacy X started cracking up slightly in the corner. "Yeah, why does your hair look like shit, dear?" Stacy asked Miranda. 

[b]Outside the Green Lagoon...[/b]

	Magneto's facial expression would be a little bit easier to Andy to read - there was a slight hint of anger there, with an almost pensive tone to it. It wasn't anger directed at her however. [color=FF5733]"The Council thinks that what ails Genosha can be solved with a drunken soirée,"[/color] Magneto said bluntly. [color=FF5733]"Sometimes I wonder if in our new home, we've become soft and vulnerable, easy pickings for homo sapiens and their monstrous machines,"[/color] he then admitted. [color=FF5733]"The horrors of my youth repeated, this time for the mutants instead of the Jews."[/color]
