Xavier School- ridiculously early Friday morning

[throughaphase]

Kitty and Clint were still at Xavier's, because there were still plenty of kids who needed to talk after being tortured by a sentient Danger Room using their dead classmate's body to do so. Kitty was just glad she didn't have the job of calling Wing's parents or dealing with that, because after the last couple days, she just didn't have it in her. The day had been traumatic and stressy, and she'd fallen asleep almost as soon as her head hit the pillow.

In her dream, Kitty was sitting under a tree on the lawn of the school when she heard someone call her, and she turned around to see her dad, alive and well. She ran to hug him, to assure herself that he was real, and he told her he only had one question. That question was, "Why did you let us die?" and then he began burning away right in front of her-

And that was when Kitty startled awake, not even sure what the noise she'd made was and hoping that she didn't wake Clint up, while also kind of hoping she woke Clint up because she probably needed a hug.


[For the guy.]

The noise Kitty had made was enough to start waking Clint up, and when he felt her moving next to him, that got his eyes open. "Hey sweetie. You okay?" he asked quietly. If she didn't want to talk to him, she could totally pretend to have not heard him that way.
