[Pietro's wearing a new grey, blue, and white uniform and trying to look authoritative and/or menacing.]

Just so we're all on the same page here...

From now on, anyone who messes with Toad or Hope is also messing with me. And I don't plan on letting anyone off lightly.

The annoying blue muppet's on his own, though. If he's even figured out how to work these things yet.

[Locked to Toad and Hope]

You two, get over here. We need to talk.

[He moves the camera to show that he's in a small, empty building, then shows them the view from the window. It's not far from the Flop.]

Ah-

You're friends with Toa- er. Tolansky?

Re: [PRIVATE]

[cantcatchme]

Go you. Maybe you can be taught. Maybe.

Re: voice.

[cantcatchme]

2012...?

Yeah, yeah we're definitely on a separate timeline. Because even if Wanda took out mutantkind the day I left, that'd make you... nine years old? It's 2002, where I'm from.

[Still, it's something to keep in mind. What could make Wanda do something that drastic, that hadn't already been done to her? He... didn't like the sound of it.]

Re: [Video]

[cantcatchme]

Toad? I guess you could say that. He's from where I am, and he's on my team, so I'll be protecting him.

[He squints at the screen. Even if he was tipsy when he met, he knows that's not Wing]

How many of you are there?

Re: voice.

[messiahed]

It was 2010 when I was born. Wanda took out mutantkind a year before I was born.

So 2009 was when she did all of that....

[thefuzzyguy]

...Verpiss dich.

[Done talking now.]

[weapabilities]

Team? Oh, uh. Okay.

[He squints back before brightening at the question.]

Of me? Just the one!

[Excuse his derp.]

[lehnsherr]

Nightcrawler too.

Re: voice.

[cantcatchme]

...freaking time travel. I know I'm never messing with that crazy stuff. So you're, like, going backwards or something? Unless you're really two years old, which would be kinda creepy.

Re: [Video => Action?] And Hope can be here, too!

[cantcatchme]

[Pietro is, as usual, impatient when Toad arrives, leaning against a wall and drumming his fingers on his arm.]

Gee, took you long enough. This is kinda important.

Re: [Video]

[cantcatchme]

[Mutants - well, superhumans in general - are kind of big on teams. It's how Pietro was brought up. He doesn't find it particularly odd.]

Noooo, no. I've definitely seen another giant robot walking around. You don't forget that sort of thing.

[Video]

[weapabilities]

Oh! You mean Cybertronians. Yes, that's Wing. I'm Drift. There's just two of us, and I'm new here.

Re: permatext; locked to teen-mutants

[cantcatchme]

What? No no nonono. Tht wa't prt of teh deeal!

[Pietro's communicator holds up to his super-speedy typing better than most would, but it still can't keep up when he gets worked up.]

Re: voice.

[messiahed]

I went forward to grow up, then I went backwards to live in the present.

They couldn't raise me in the present. Too dangerous.

[ It's kinda fun to confuse him though. ]

[Action] WOAH MY BAD FOR NOT SEEING THIS

[messiahed]

[ Hope shows up finally too, The Dog with her. As always. Seriously she never leaves him behind. ]

You could let me borrow your powers? Then I wouldn't be so slow.

threadjack!!

[messiahed]

Good.

[lehnsherr]

[slow down pietro >|]

It is now.

[lehnsherr]

Should I feign surprise at your approval?

[Action] no worries, I'm a slowbie this weekend anyhow :B

[catchingflies]

[Eying Hope as she comes up behind him-- this is the first time he's met her, after all-- Todd looks a bit wary about her. She's kinda hot, but she's related to Summers. Ew.]

I think he was talkin' to me, so-- wait, wait. What? Borrow his powers?

Re: voice.

[cantcatchme]

Well, gee, thanks for making my childhood look freaking normal

[He rolls his eyes a little. They're a messed up little group, aren't they?]

Re: [Action] and I fail, too =P

[cantcatchme]

You can do that over distances?

[He frowns a little as he sizes her up]

But nah, no thanks. It was enough of a pain when Rogue got ahold of them. 'Cept you don't actually knock people out when you do it, do you?

And yeah, Toad. She's like the Rogue, except without the touching.

[He gestures at a few boxes he's set up as improvised seating]

Take a seat. 'Cause it looks like the Brotherhood's back in business.

Re: [Video]

[cantcatchme]

Did you guys come off the ship too, or what? Wing told me some about your... uh, homeworld. Or whatever it's called.

[Giant robots still freak him out a bit, but he is a teenage boy. And the Cybertronians are pretty damn cool.]

[Video]

[weapabilities]

[Fortunately for him, Wing and Drift are about as derpy friendly as they come.]

Yeah. At least that's where I woke up.

Oh! He told you about Cybertron? What did he tell you about it?

[cantcatchme]

But he's an X-man! Can't you get one of the Xaviers to deal with him or something? I hear there's a whole bunch.

Because - and this might be news to you - the X-geeks and the Brotherhood don't get along.

[Hey, at least his typing's legible now?]

Re: threadjack!!

[cantcatchme]

Don't encourage him.
