The X-Project

I'm sorry it's taken me so long to get around to making this post. I hope you all understand that the last eighteen hours have been a bit of a shock.

Yes, Alex is home. He was retrieved from Selene's last night thanks to Emma's quick thinking and the action of the staff and students who accompanied her to the evening's event. I'm going to let Alex tell his own story when he's able. The details that are salient to all of us are that Alex was treated badly, he is in a very fragile state, and he has developed a near-pathological fear of his own mutation. He's not conscious right now, and his condition is not stable, so he's not permitted visitors. I'm very sorry -- that means even me right now.

And, I'm going to say in advance that I will be selecting who Alex sees and does until I'm sure that my brother is well enough to cope with anyone and everyone. If you don't get to see him, that doesn't mean that I don't like you. This has nothing to do with me and everything to do with him. On the other hand, I can pretty much guarantee you that things like get-well notes and such will be appreciated and passed along. I'm quite certain that he'll appreciate tangible evidence of your affection for him and your excitement at him rejoining us.

Again, to all those who were there last night, thank you for your unhesitating cooperation and willingness to step in harm's way for my brother. I'm incredibly proud to know you all, and deeply grateful.

Ms. Frost alerted everyone because of an incident involving Alex and Lorna.

They both are in the medlab. Dr. McCoy will alert you to their condition, and their ability to have visitors, as soon as he is able.

As to what occurred...it appears that Alex's power flared up again, and he was unable to shut it off unassisted. Lorna unfortunately took a good hit, and has some serious burns.

But again, please, do not panic.
