WHO: Sally Blevins and Lorna Dane
WHERE: Central Park
WHEN: Wednesday afternoon
WARNINGS: um...I'll update if there are any
SUMMARY: Sally and Lorna discuss Magneto and other things.
FORMAT: paraskating



Sally was wandering around Central Park after her shift. She'd already dropped in on some locals she'd made friends with and delivered them food, so she was taking the moment to enjoy the spring weather. She didn't walk though, preferring to utilize her force field to help her skid along the sidewalk and across the grass as she pleased. Back home she wouldn't have dared doing this in the open anymore, but she felt safe enough to breeze by in the less traveled areas in the City.

Plus she really enjoyed the people watching.

"I hope you're wrong." Sally sighed. "I know you aren't though."

[apocalypsewench]

"It's unfortunate, but with humans around, our kind will always suffer."

[prettymorlock]

"Lots of people give them reason to fear us here," Sally pointed out. "Look at what the Major did."

[apocalypsewench]

"And look what Hitler did," Lorna remarked. "Look what so many humans have done throughout history."

Genocide, anyone?

[prettymorlock]

"Do you not think we're human?"

[apocalypsewench]

"No. I don't consider us human," Lorna stated. "We are our own species."

[prettymorlock]

"Does it work that way though?" Sally asked. "My parents were human..."

[apocalypsewench]

"But you are a mutant. You have different DNA, different everything. There are people out there who would eradicate you just on that cause alone," Lorna pointed out. "Humans see you as a disease. There's no skin colour, or sexual preference that is worse than you. You're an animal to them, we all are."

A pause.

"Our genetics are superior."

[prettymorlock]

"Not all of them think that way," Sally pointed out. "My mom never thought of me as an animal. You've never known any decent humans?"

[apocalypsewench]

"Hardly," Lorna rolled her eyes. "I have no faith in humanity, no matter how much I used to cherish the dream of Charles Xavier. I don't see it anymore."

omg is that a skull on her dress

[prettymorlock]

Sally frowned. "Is that why you don't live at the Institute?"

yes forever

[apocalypsewench]

"I love the X-men, don't get me wrong. They are the only friends I have, and the only family I know. I have worked along side of them since Genosha, albeit more violently than is appreciated." Lorna looked off to the side. "But I don't live there for a lot of personal reasons, none of which have to deal with my views."

she is such a daddy's girl

[prettymorlock]

"Oh," she nods, not sure what to say to that. "And Magneto is with the X-men now in the future." Which was kind of weird.

lol that's when she was under the impression she WAS his kid back in her first appearance stuff

[apocalypsewench]

"That, I don't understand," Lorna said simply. "But I am not from their time, so I cannot pass judgments."

she has the weirdest family history

[prettymorlock]

"I don't get it either," Sally shrugged, and picked up another dandelion. "Maybe it seemed better to work together since there are like hardly any mutants left?"

[apocalypsewench]

"It is ironic," Lorna mused as she glanced to the sky. "That my sister is the one responsible for that."

[prettymorlock]

"Why did she do it?" Sally asked, watching Lorna closely.

[apocalypsewench]

"I believe it's because she lost her mind," Lorna pointed out.

[prettymorlock]

"Oh," she frowned, and looked away. "So she couldn't fix it all?"

[apocalypsewench]

"I don't know. The only way to find out is if someone finds her back home to see," Lorna gestured her hands. "But mental instability is not something you can easily pull someone out of."

[prettymorlock]

"No, I suppose it wouldn't be," she murmured, and watched the dandelion seeds take off in the breeze. "Something will work out. We can't be the last of our kind."
