Learning things has been the best part of Riverview. With friends.

When would you like me to visit?

[backwaterbelle]

I suppose I can't argue that one, even when I'm sad.

How does a couple days sound?

[shoplifter]

[She smiles at her screen.]

A couple days sounds very nice.

I'll bring cookie batter, too. It is good, cooked or not.

[backwaterbelle]

You're in my calendar then.

Chocolate chip? Or do you have another you like?

[Rogue adds learning to bake to her teaching list, which reminds her...]

Have you ever ridden a motorcycle?

[shoplifter]

They make sugar cookies with shapes in the batter.
I like the ones with stars and hearts.

[backwaterbelle]

I always liked the Christmas trees, but that's because I liked the holidays at the mansion. They were my family.

[shoplifter]

I know I am not family or from the mansion, but



we can make Christmas trees in August, if you would like.

[backwaterbelle]

You are family. Just because I've been dealing with my own shit, doesn't mean I stopped caring about you. It just means I didn't show it right.

I think that's a great idea, actually.

[shoplifter]

I mean, I am... not from your universe. So I would understand if you didn't feel any connection.
But I'm very happy that you do. That there are other mutants here who could understand.

It's okay to deal with your own shit first.

[backwaterbelle]

You're still a person that I care about Laura, and you're a mutant. Just because you're from a different universe doesn't make you less family.

I think this is helping me deal with my own crap.

Also, pretend I scolded you for bad language.

[shoplifter]

Logan said that because I can kill a man with my feet, cursing is not a very big deal.

[I mean, he said she could hear bad words, technically. But same thing. Totally.]

It's nice. To have family.
I am not used to it.

[backwaterbelle]

There are many situations where neither are appropriate.

He has a point, though.

Get used to it. I'm not going anywhere willingly.

[shoplifter]

[She grins at that.]

Good. Never am I.

I will see you for dinner in a few days.

[backwaterbelle]

Good. I got your back Laura.

See you soon.

[shoplifter]

[Excellent, Rogue — because you best expect her in a few days.

And she will bring the cookies. And maybe a pie. She absolutely bought it legally, too, just FYI.

(For you doubters and naysayers out there.)]

this made my morning better thank you T_T

[backwaterbelle]

[Bless her heart. Genuinely.

Mushu voice: Logan's baby's all grown up.]
