Forgot how much fun this is!

[He must have been deep in thought to have not noticed till it was too late he had wheeled his chair into the training area. Charles quickly ducks a flurry of flat green frisbees flying through the air at him with a yelp of surprise.]

[The Danger Room has changed a lot since Jean was a student, but those obnoxious frisbees? Those are forever. Mid-training session, she's long forgotten her role as an authority figure, getting a bit more hands-on with her students and running through the course with them. She can't help but baby the younger students, but picks on the older students -- students with experience, who can more than handle themselves -- by sending the bulk of the attack in their direction and it isn't until the collective "oh, shit!" from Herman and Keller that she notices Charles.]

Terminate program! [Jean holds each of the disks steady as the Danger Room's computer shuts down the simulation, then tosses them aside with ease. (Seems she's learned a few new tricks too.) The room fills with the sound of confusion.] Alright, class. That's enough for today. Everyone use this opportunity to take a breathe and freshen up before the bell rings.

[I'm sorry about that! Are you alright, Charles?]

[janee]

What is?

[ihearyouthink]

[He's pulling one of the errant frisbees out from behind him, wedged between the chair arm and himself. He smirks, tossing it lightly towards Jean as a reply.]

Good to know if we are ever attacked by frisbees, you will be adept at using them.

apologies, real life happened.

[The students filter out of the room quickly, thrilled to be let out of their training session early. Jean snorts.

Just one of my many talents.]

Baseball! It's been a long time since I've been to a game.

[janee]

I've never been to a game.

[atombomb]

Really? Oh, that's a shame. I feel like it's something that everyone should do at least once in their lives.

[janee]

I heard that they were very long.

[atombomb]

Most games I've been to are about two or three hours long, but they can run a lot longer. It certainly doesn't hurt having good company at a game.

[janee]

What makes them so fun?

[atombomb]

For me? The hot dogs, the beer, hearing the crowd cheer. I love how happy everyone is regardless of the weather or what is going on in the world. It's a nice little break from everything.

[janee]

Are the hot dogs cruelty free? What about the sneaky kiss cams?

[atombomb]

I can't say for certain? But I'm sure they have vegan and vegetarian options. I wouldn't be so worried about the kiss cam, though.

[janee]

I don't want to be on it, and I'm also not sure of the rules of that sport. Baseball.

My boyfriend would probably like it...

[atombomb]

He might! I'll admit it's not for everyone and there are a lot of people who find it boring, but you'll either have a good time or you won't. It's better to find out through experimentation, you know?

it does tend to do that :)

[ihearyouthink]

[With so many different variations of mutations, eventually they were likely to meet someone who could fling frisbees just as well as Jean.]

It does pay to be prepared for any and all circumstances.

[atombomb]

Surely you're not here to talk about frisbees, though. You alright, Charles? You seem like you've got something on your mind.

[ihearyouthink]

[Charles does seem distracted in thought.]

...I'm not sure. Something with this chair...

[He tries to move forward and it sputters to a stop. Starts. Stops again.] It's been acting up all day.
