Garrison and Maya spar, and Garrison discovers something they haven't thought of before.

Alright, hold on for a second. I think I might see where both Matt and I have been missing. )

Just a head's up following the events of this weekend.

If anyone wants basic or advanced hand-to-hand training, we're going to be holding a group event in the DR this week, and we can set up private sessions afterward. There's no disadvantage to learning how to handle yourself in the event that you end up in a fight and we also teach ways to anticipate and avoid conflicts. Just let us know.

Early in the New Year, Jean and Garrison finally have the conversation they've been avoiding for weeks now.

You want to know why I ran away? It was this, )

I’m awake. And, well, I’m alive. I’m told both things are considered news. A lot has happened in the almost six months since I’ve been gone. I owe everyone an explanation at the very least.

The definition of TL;DR )

That's right, campers. It's the end of the year and the holiday season, which means for all you X-Men and reservists, it's time to be recertified for the team. Time to grab your uniforms and do the Danger Room two-step. Between now and New Years, you'll need to book yourself a couple of sessions for solo and partnered testing. Team testing schedules will be posted.

For anyone looking to shift their status, to either an active member of the team, reserve, or joining either level as an X-Man, give us a yell here and we'll set up your program that is optimized for your success specifically.

I don't think we've publicly announced it, but Adrienne Frost has come out of her coma and is transferring from Muir Island back to the mansion to start her rehab. Long story short, they were able to bypass the accidental surge in her powers by the use of a special suit, so don't be surprised if she looks like she's wearing a hybrid X-Men uniform half the time for the next while. She's not taking back any of her old jobs at this point, since rehab is the priority. However, if anyone needs some help, let her know.

I'll apparently be locked in the DR for the immediate future because the braintrust has come up with some new upgrades they want to look at and Fred Duncan is threatening to replace my spot at the Bureau with a vending machine if I don't get back. Seemed a little unnecessarily hurtful, to be honest.

Anyhow... we're home.

Some people may already know this, but there was an incident today while volunteering at the soup kitchen. Adrienne Frost came into contact with an unknown mutant who was suffering some kind of medical issue. While trying to help him, he inadvertently caused a reaction with Adrienne's powers, amplifying them many many times beyond what she could handle.

As a result, Adrienne has been transported to Muir Island in a telepathic coma. Until they can reverse the effects, she must remain in her comatose state to survive. The staff at Muir at the best in the world and if anyone can help her, it's them. Unfortunately, due to the nature of her powers, it could correct itself tomorrow, next month, next year... or never. And before people start making offers, Moira assured me that if any of our resident geniuses or telepaths can help, she'll be in touch while she develops her treatment strategy.

Also, I want to make this clear, there is absolutely no signs, hints or proof that this was anything other than an unfortunate accident. The mutant involved is in a local hospital, has no record of any kind of association with any one hostile to the school or Adrienne, and has agreed to participate in whatever tests we need him to. This was an accident. Just a stupid, fucking accident-

So, if you have any questions, direct them at Muir. I'm told that she's left information for her colleagues in the agency and related to her business. If you're effected and you don't hear anything in the next few days, let me know.

X-Mas Eve

For those of you sticking around the mansion this year, Harry just informed me that the Hideaway is throwing a Christmas bash on Christmas Eve. Should be mostly the regulars. I don't know what makes it especially Christmas-y... maybe he'll replace the swizzle sticks with candy canes or something. But regardless. he plans to kick it off about eight if anyone else is interested.

Pumpkins

I apparently showered with a pumpkin for five minutes before I noticed it. This holiday is getting weirder.

Anyhow, if you don't know what to do with the pumpkins infesting your leaving space, there's a big wooden crate in the grounds truck in the garage that you can dump them into. I got off the phone with Clara's Bakery in Salem Center and Xavier's is officially sponsoring providing dessert via pumpkin pies to the local shelters and soup kitchens in the area. I'll drive them over after work tomorrow, so you have until then.

BASEBALL

First game of Spring Training. I have taken over the television room in the staff wing. Anyone attempting to change the channel will be arrested. No, seriously, I will make up an excuse to do it legally. Otherwise, feel free to join me on the start of the Jays historic World Series run.

In accordance with our bet yesterday, I have an annoucement to make. Adrienne Lucille Frost has bested me at a 18 hole game of golf at the Pine Valley Golf Course by a score of 76-116. Ms Frost finished 4 over par, with six birdies and six made pars on the course. Mr Kane finished 44 over par, with a new club record for a submitted score card of eleven triple bogies.

To complete the terms of the bet, a bottle of Martell Creation Grand Extra Cognac has been placed in the drinks safe for Ms Frost to collect. There is also a set of clubs for sale, currently missing the putter, 5 iron, 8 iron, 9 iron, 3 wood, 5 wood, and a slightly bent driver. Interested parties can pick it up from the mansion's dumpster out back.

Lorna Dane

Just a quick note. Lorna has decided to book herself into Muir Island for a while to sort out some powers related issues. She asked me if I'd make a quick post since she also managed to forget her laptop in her room before heading to the airport. She says she's fine and it's nothing to be worried about, but she needs some testing done and the big brains of Moira to get things sorted out. You can reach her through Muir's switchboard, and she's still on the journal system here if you need her for anything.

I've got to go back into Manhattan today and drop Pete off at the office before work. If anyone wants a ride into town, be ready at the front door in half an hour.

Harry's

I don't know about you lot, but I just got a call from Jen, one of the barstaff at Harry's. Looks like he's opened today, and as a special treat, he's waved the usual underaged policy because so many people are currently displaced with kids, and not a lot of places opening. Anyhow, my buddy Johnny ended up getting in touch with him, and Harry's decided to tap him to provide a little music with the band in about an hour or so. It's not his usual night, but Jen says Harry is a little worried about the grim mood and is hoping to lighten things a bit for tonight.

Speaking of grim moods, anyone who feels like a drink and some music should head on down. After this week, the idea of pub trivia, chicken wings, and covers of the Beatles sounds just about perfect. Anyhow, I'm off now. Hopefully I'll see a few of you down there.

Apocalypse

Apocalypse is now in SHIELD custody, charged with a list of crimes that took most of the field office to write it all up. It'll be a while before he goes to trial anywhere; there's overlapping jurisdictions involved, and they won't move him until they've got a solid analysis of his powers so he can't pose a danger to the court or be an escape risk. Safe to say, it's very unlikely he'll be anywhere other than a cell for the rest of his life.

It's kind of a cool name, actually.

Vans are leaving at 3pm. Make sure you're on it. Each of you has a pack with your name on it in the front lobby. It contains the supplies you'll need for the weekend. Remember, this is a weekend in a national park, so consider that before you try and chuck a laptop in your bag. You'll be the one carrying everything you want to bring.

For those who have declined, I'd suggest you find someone to explain to you what the word 'mandatory' means in the e-mail. According to Webster's, 'mandatory' is 'containing or constituting a command, enforced by an 8-foot tall engine of destruction currently serving as a caretaker at a New York state private school'.

See you all in a couple of hours.

All of your wood bins have now been refilled for fireplace, firepit, and any other strange burning needs you might have. I can be easily repaid by things cooked over a firepit grill for my labours. Interested parties, please contact via smoke signal or, if needed, extinguisher foam clouds.

Tomorrow

Baseball tomorrow. I've made the executive decision to steal the van so we all get to go in a big group. I have done this especially for the people who don't like anyone else to get used to what Yankee stadium will be like. It is referred to as the 'Bronx Zoo', which is true because it's full of dumb, unwashed animals who think Jeter is a legitimate Gold Glove shortstop.

Be ready to go in the morning. Anyone caught wearing a Yankees cap will be punished by having to feed the tolls on the way.

There's an upside to being hurt in the line of duty, and that is that your fellow officers and boss pull strings to provide baseball tickets as a way of saying 'get better'. Now, I have it from reliable sources that drinking thin stadium beer, eating cheap hot dogs, and making derogatory comments about Joba Chamberlain is beneficial to the healing process. So, in the spirit of my own medical recovery, anyone that is interested in watching the Mets and the Yankees next weekend is welcome to join me down the third base line.

Farewell

[identity profile] x-dominion.livejournal.com
Now that I'm no longer leaking lunch out either side of my neck, I bid you all a fond farewell for the immediate future. After our most recent affry and my injury, my government is pulling me back home for an extensive review. No idea when I'll be back, although life with my sister is slightly more dangerous than being an X-Man in general. Be good, don't blow up the mansion or commit any major felonies while I'm gone.

Kyle, you can keep working from those notes I sent you. Eugene has just sent a new set to me, which is now in your inbox. This one is titled 'Groin'. Enjoy.
