if you forgot you must have hit the wall hard.

[notrosecolored]

I've got brain damage from falling out of a plane, memory gaps from being mind controlled by Sinister and possessed by Apocalypse and Phoenix. Nevermind the nature of my life being such that 'thrown into a wall' is a regular thing.

It'd stick with her if she did it, specifically because of a nightmare.

For me it's not noteworthy

[overconfidently]

( his dad being sweet... who knew scott summers was capable of that. )

it happened with wade a couple times too. at least he could heal relatively quickly.

[notrosecolored]

[He was?].

definitely one to take to your mom for potential coping mechanisms. I don't move all that much when I have nightmares.

[overconfidently]

it's just. i don't know. you're all understanding about us. mom and me, i mean.

[notrosecolored]

We're all traumatized as hell, Nate.

[overconfidently]

i guess we just all come with a built-in warning label on us.

[notrosecolored]

Yeah, except the warning label's something you need to communicate with words.

Also: Talk to your mom about this.

[overconfidently]

on one condition.

[notrosecolored]

What is it?

[overconfidently]

teach me how to play pool.

[notrosecolored]

You've got it.

[overconfidently]

thanks. i promise not to cheat.

[notrosecolored]

You should cheat, since I can't not.

[overconfidently]

it's too easy for me though.

( reads minds, moves balls. it's an easy win. )

[notrosecolored]

Okay don't use TK. If you can find a way to use reading my mind, in a game that tells you which balls need to go where by who to cheat knock yourself out.

Meanwhile I can't miss shots.

And most of the learning is how to aim and physically DO the shot for you, anyway.

[overconfidently]

ok we can do fishing instead if you want??

[notrosecolored]

Let's do both. I want to teach you to shoot.

[overconfidently]

are you like a pool champion or something?

[notrosecolored]

No, but complicated shots with a lot of banking is built in to my mutation and so is calculating the angles of everything. Including a pool table.

[overconfidently]

( dad forever being technical about Everything. )

well there goes my asking who the better pool player is between you and logan.

[notrosecolored]

Ask him. Report back.

[overconfidently]

is that an order?

[notrosecolored]

if you want or need it to be, sure

[overconfidently]

thanks, dad.
