RP by me and Earthenwing in which Logan finds Todd in the desert. Poor kid got left there by Magneto after he didn't complete the mission-training thing. Logan's out there doing some SHEILD business and he got stranded too since they thought he was dead. @.@
RP Snippet: (Earthy plays Logan, I play Todd)
Todd heard a thud but more importantly the slosh of water and reached forward with blistered fingers. He unscrewed the cap, getting blood all over it and took a gulp. Swallowing was painful and almost made him spit it out, but Todd kept the water in his mouth and choked it down. Water had been an unexpected mercy. He panted and took another mouthful, this one going down easier. "Th-Thanks, dawg," he muttered, not looking up. So long as Gambit or whoever it was was casting a shadow over him, he was going to stay still as long as he could.
Logan watched him for a minute. He looked like shit. "....what are you doing out here?" he growled.
Todd twitched. That wasn't one of Magneto's . . . he twisted his head to look up, shielding the sun out of his eyes. "Uh . . . X-men . . ." he muttered brilliantly. Well fuck. "Ah hell. Magneto didn't say I had to get past nobody."
Logan raised an eyebrow. "Magneto?" That might explain a bit. "....a jet took off about an hour ago. Were you supposed to be on it?"
"Hour ago?" The boy stared at the ground, forcing his immediate panic back down. "I was s-supposed to meet them. Get from one place to . . . over there. I don't . . . I can't, yo."
Logan stood up, brushing his jeans off. "Well I'm going that way." he said, pointing towards town. "Where are you goin?"
It was possible someone was still there waiting for him while the jet dropped off the others. Possible. But Todd really didn't want to put his hopes on it. Magneto wasn't that dependable. Or nice. "I want to go home," he muttered, feeling lame for saying something like that in front of an X-man. "Out of this desert would be nice," he added, trying to cover.
Logan snorted and grabbed the back of Todd's shirt, pulling him up by it and holding him on his feet. "There's a town." he said. "We're still ten miles out.'
Todd made himself stable on his feet again. The water had revived him somewhat. "How long until the sun moves?" he asked, putting an arm over his head. The metal wristguard sewn into his uniform began to heat up again, but his scalp burning hurt worse.
"It's only two oclock." Logan said, picking up the water jug. He started walking.
Todd started after him, stumbling a little but eventually walking. One would think Magneto would have let him take normal clothes all the way out here. But noooo. And he was going to go into town with the damn thing on and he couldn't even take the metal parts off. Sometimes he really hated that man. *tag*
Logan glanced back at Todd after a few minutes. He couldn't believe the idiot was out here in spandex and metal. He'd gotten himself one hell of a sunburn, too. Logan snorted and took his hat off, slapping it down on Todd's head. Damned teenagers.
