[Compared to the last time he was on the network, Pietro looks like a million bucks. A skinny, pale million bucks, maybe, but he's much less sickly. And it even looks like he's trimmed his hair at some point. Just like Quicksilver to prioritize style when he's recovering from near-death.

His expression, however, is flat, cold, and carefully dispassionate. And the background is definitely inside the ship.]

I don't know if anyone's left who actually cares, but Erik's gone. Or asleep, or whatever. He's in a pod, anyway.

[He knocks on the pod he's standing next to.]

He ditched us. Can't say I'm surprised.

Locked to the 'Brotherhood' - yes, this includes Kurt and Hope

So I guess we're out a sponsor. But Mister Mutant Solidarity did have a point. We should still stick together, when we can.

Comments

[catchingflies]

Yeah, like you'd hold my hand, anyway. You'd complain about it smelling before you got close enough.

[This is not, in fact, meant as any kind of innuendo or suggestion that Todd would want him to hold hands. It's just playing off Pietro's comment.

Doesn't mean Pietro can't make fun of him anyway, though.]

[cantcatchme]

[Yup, Pietro's sniggering. Predictably.]

Aw, Toddy, I didn't know you wanted me holding your hand. Did I hurt your feelings?

[catchingflies]

[For a beat he's confused, and then he gets it, and he's glad this is audio, because he's flushing embarrassedly.]

What? You-- oh geez. No. Shut up!

[cantcatchme]

Hey, you said it, not me.

[From the sounds of it, Pietro's trying very hard not to laugh.]

Think you'll be okay on your own now?

[catchingflies]

I'll be fine.

[Sulk.

Pause.]

And you will be, too.

[That one's less sulky.]

[cantcatchme]

Oh. Well. Because you said so.

[Not that he was planning on NOT being find, honestly]

[catchingflies]

Good.

[He pauses, looking around on his end, and realizes the rest of the group has gone on and left him behind.]

I'll, uh, talk to you later, okay? I think I need to catch up to everybody else.

[cantcatchme]

Yeah, yeah. Don't get lost on my account.

[catchingflies]

I won't. Geez.

[And he hangs up, and bounds off to catch up. At least the guy's feeling better. And was almost nice. Todd can live with that, and maybe he won't have to worry any more.]
