[laserguy]

yeah, i managed. although i wasn't with any teams, so maybe that's part of it. spent most of my time on the base.

you?

[redvisor]

Same. Maybe they thought it best to leave us out of the leader position this time.

[laserguy]

[Honestly, hearing that the other Scott was stuck on base too? Makes him feel a little bit better.]

damn, they even shelved you? guess it's either that or they have something against guys with sunglasses.

[redvisor]

Might have been a bit of both.

Got something to tell you.

[laserguy]

well don't leave me in suspense asshole

wait i'm assuming this is something good, right?

[redvisor]

Alright. Might want to tone it down before you cut yourself on those edges there.

But that would depend on whether or not you know about the team Blackbird yet.

[laserguy]

no? and i'm assuming that you're not talking about a crow or some random bird.

[redvisor]

Not even close.

It’s a Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird model that Hank redesigned for the team. Asked Aurora for it and seems like she delivered. Figured you might want to learn how to pilot it sometime. Comes with the job after all.

[laserguy]

[What the hell.]

what. wait seriously??? we get our own personalized jet and no one thought to mention that until now??

[He 100% wants to learn holy shit. Sure yeah learning to drive a motorcycle was really neat, but learning to fly an actual fighter jet?? That's like. Even cooler.]

of course i want to learn.

[redvisor]

Guess not. But great. When you’ve got some time, we’ll do some flight training. Sound good?

[laserguy]

i have some time right now. wow i can't believe professor mccoy made a whole jet though...

does everyone else on the x-men team know how to fly the blackbird? although i guess half of them can fly on their own anyway.

[Which. Always felt kind of unfair!! Look at them having a mutant power that basically hinders their mobility and others get something that allows them to fucking fly. Rude.]

[redvisor]

A few of us do back home. Also, just because you can fly, doesn't mean knowing how to pilot the jet isn't a useful skill. Sometimes shit happens.

( seems to always happen when you're a mutant, really. )

[laserguy]

also who wouldn't want to learn how to pilot a supersonic jet?

do you think we'd actually be able to bring it to missions?

[redvisor]

Depending on the mission. Vehicles are able to brought sometimes. So long as it can fit through Aurora's portal, it's usually not a problem.

[laserguy]

then we can go in style and leave julian behind.

[He's joking, mostly.]

so where did you park the plane?

[redvisor]

We're all on the same team here don't forget. As for the jet, it's the hangar beneath the school.

[laserguy]

yeah yeah i know. he just doesn't make it easy. but i guess he's kind of less annoying lately, maybe because there's less of us now.

but okay, the hangar. so, saying if i go there now, i'll see you?
