J, GOB - Wednesday noonish

[carbontelepath.livejournal.com]

Emma had lingered in her nice white bed, but eventually she got up, got dressed (white top, white tight pants, white boots and a white trenchcoat) and headed out to find breakfast. It took her a little while and many bemused looks at the street signs, but finally she found a bakery.

She ordered croissants and a coffee and picked a window table to watch the world go by. Once in a while she smirked at the thoughts coming from the J,GOB employee, and made a mental note to visit this 'Sin' at some point.

Daisy had decided to take a break from her mad movie watching in preparation for her new class to have a coffee break. She gave Emma a quick once over as she headed to the counter, taking in the completely white outfit and the beauty of the other blonde.

"Love the trenchcoat. Honey. But it is well after labor day."

Emma raised an elegant eyebrow at the unknown blonde. "I beg your pardon?"

[actingreaper]

"You don't sound foreign, so I assume you've heard the saying not to wear white after Labor Day? Or are you in a state of rebellion regarding that rule?"

[carbontelepath.livejournal.com]

Emma slipped into her fake British accent when she replied. "I am indeed a rebel. White is always suitable."

Huh. Strange. There was nothing coming from the other woman. Telepathically speaking, it was like she wasn't there at all.

[actingreaper]

Daisy was entirely oblivious to the other woman's telepathic probing and accepted her coffee from the clerk. "With your complexion, I would have to agree. It certainly attacts attention."

"You should see what I wear to work," Emma said, waving a hand negligently. "Do join me, if you have the time." She wanted to know the reason for the telepathic weirdness and perhaps further talk would reveal it.

"Gladly." Daisy took a seat. "It's good to see another fashion conscious woman on the island. I swear, one of my housematees is straight out of the old west, and she just won't listen to advice on updating her wardrobe. I'm Daisy. Daisy Adair."

"There is no helping some people," Emma said solemnly. "I'm Emma Frost. I'll be teaching Home Economics at the high school this semester. Have you been here long?"

After getting denied breakfast from the worst roommate ever, Wade wandered into town to look for food. He paused in the doorway as he entered J,GOB.

(Telepathic thong chick? What are the odds, really now?)

"No thong?"

[carbontelepath.livejournal.com]

Emma looked up at the voice, then narrowed her eyes. "You look familiar," she said, ignoring the thong comment for now. "Why do you look familiar?"

[mouthy-merc.livejournal.com]

"Well, last time I saw you, you all dressed me up in that horrible black X-Man uniform," Wade said. "But then again, that was probably just an excuse for Your boyfriend and his friends to grope me while I was unconscious."

(I feel violated, but strangely aroused.)

[carbontelepath.livejournal.com]

Emma stared. "Oh god. It's you. What are you doing here? Why are you here?" She looked around suspiciously. "Is he here?"

[mouthy-merc.livejournal.com]

"Getting food because my roommate is a jerk," Wade replied, then leaned forward to whisper. "And no, I don't think Galactus is here."

[carbontelepath.livejournal.com]

"Cable, you moron," Emma hissed back, which took some skill but she managed it. "Is he here?" She paused and backtracked. "...Roommate?"

[mouthy-merc.livejournal.com]

(Does she not watch the news?)

"Roommate," Wade confirmed, ignoring the question about Nate entirely. "Blonde, bitchy and Japanese."

[carbontelepath.livejournal.com]

Emma was sidetracked since it didn't appear as though Cable was going to unexpectedly show up and start asking questions about her relationship to his father.

"I think I met your roommate yesterday," said Emma thoughtfully. "Yuki something. Wannabe writer."

H.E.L.P.eR had done a particularly crappy job and breakfast that day, so Dr. Venture had, well, ventured out to buy some real food.

And then he saw Emma. His thoughts were particularly dirty when he approached.

"Well, well, well. Who have we here?"

[carbontelepath.livejournal.com]

After Daisy and Deadpool hearing his thoughts came as a bit of a relief to Emma. But still. "That will only happen in your dreams, little man."

[rustyboywonder.livejournal.com]

"That's a fine how-do-you-do," Dr. Venture said. "Fine. Don't tell me your name."

[carbontelepath.livejournal.com]

Emma unbent slightly. "I am Emma Frost. And you are a dirty dirty man?"

[rustyboywonder.livejournal.com]

"Thaddeus S. Venture. Doctor Thaddeus S. Venture," he said. "You know, of Venture Industries?"

[carbontelepath.livejournal.com]

Emma looked blank and very blonde.

[rustyboywonder.livejournal.com]

"I run a multi-million dollar company," Dr. Venture said, flatly. No one seems to have heard of him. Which was both a good thing, and a bad thing.

"Really?" said Emma, looking much more inviting. She wouldn't have believed just his word for it, but his mind was in agreement with his tongue, so unless he was deeply delusional, it was probably true.

Feeling much more human than he had this morning, Billy decided to further banish his troubles with baked goods and cocoa.
