Kyle, just to set your mind at ease:

I've already placed a call to one of the approved contractors.

Except for the part where Mollie is actually convinced you have brain damage?

[x-emplate.livejournal.com]

I do have brain damage. Just not the spaghetti cupboard sort.

You truly are no fun.

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

So some people keep telling me. :P

[x-emplate.livejournal.com]

You just need a horrific injury to repurpose as running joke. Weren't you once shot? Intentionally? It seems to me that has potential.

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

Technically I've died twice. It was a laugh riot, for sure.

IF WE GIVE YOU COOKIES TOO WILL YOU STPO BEING EMO?

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

Maybe.

DRIVE OVER HERE WATCH FOOTBALL AND JUDGE DESSERT PIZZA

[x-minibruiser.livejournal.com]

What he said!

Can I watch football too?

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it's just gonna be some some Div II stuff or maybe Army/Navy on replay but it'll be fun. Unless Marius takes over and wants some like other sport from Australia like kangaroo rodio or something.

[x-minibruiser.livejournal.com]

I dunno what that means but it does sound fun!

Kangaroos have rodeos?

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

Division II. Schools that aren't big or good enough to be super good, but still okay. Army/Navy is the game where the football team from West Point plays against the football team from the Naval Academy in Annapolis.

Australia is full of weird sports, so probably.

[x-minibruiser.livejournal.com]

The military plays football? Neat!

I want to visit there. That'd be fun.

I'm getting hungry. :(

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

The colleges for the military do, yep. The Air Force Academy has a team too.

Me too. Lets make dessert pizza and you and Doug can judge it.

[x-emplate.livejournal.com]

Kyle, I suspect this is our cue. As Doug has no doubt had some time to commute: to the kitchen!

[x-deadpool.livejournal.com]

I support and endorse this endeavor.

[x-emplate.livejournal.com]

Only twice? I myself have had multiple close-calls: malnutrition and borderline organ failure in hospital, body-wide third degree burns in the dorm, respiratory failure in Medlab . . . it's good to have options.

[x-minibruiser.livejournal.com]

Whoa...so this happens a lot?

[x-emplate.livejournal.com]

In my case, only if your mutation is extremely broken. In that respect I don't think you have much cause to worry.

[x-minibruiser.livejournal.com]

I got stuck under a rock and met a ghost and lived in the sewers and..and...something else. I forgot. Does that count?

[x-emplate.livejournal.com]

Those are perfectly acceptable incidents for one your age. However, my recommendation would be to avoid the more life-endangering sort as long as possible. They're only amusing after the scars have healed.

[x-minibruiser.livejournal.com]

Okay! But when I become an X-Person then I can't make any promises.

[x-emplate.livejournal.com]

Considering none of my Unfortunate Incidents happened under the aegis of X-work, I find that quite a reasonable goal.

[x-minibruiser.livejournal.com]

But I'm unsquishable and punchy so that will help, right?

[x-emplate.livejournal.com]

In theory. Just don't go out with the intent of testing it, yes?
