12 - Stay out of my den. Grrrrr.

by **Connor Marshall** » Mon Jun 10, 2013 4:41 pm

Connor was curled up on his couch, feeling thoroughly aggravated about... well, just about everything. The 'training' session, the way it left him feeling, the residual aches from it, the fact that this body's instinctive reactions were, well, girly like 'curling up on the couch'... It was pretty safe to say that Connor was in a really shitty mood. Which, of course, he had to keep suppressing, because he didn't want to go through all that again...

It was at this moment that Isabel knocked on the door.

by **Connor Marshall** » Mon Jun 10, 2013 10:20 pm

She'd be able to hear... a growl? Then a shouted answer. "Who is it!"

by **Isabel Galen** » Tue Jun 11, 2013 12:15 am

"Its me, Isabel." she called back "Can I come in?"

by **Connor Marshall** » Tue Jun 11, 2013 12:24 am

"I... you don't... I... oh bloody hell." The door opened, Connor leaning heavily against the doorway. "Not a good time, luv."

by **Isabel Galen** » Tue Jun 11, 2013 1:23 am

"Whats wrong?" Isabel asked, stepping inside

by **Connor Marshall** » Tue Jun 11, 2013 1:49 am

Connor looked like he'd stop her, then sighed, backing up. "Steph stopped in. Wouldn't let up, goin' on about how I needed ta shift an' learn to control it an... all that other shite."

by **Isabel Galen** » Tue Jun 11, 2013 7:12 pm

"And then what happened?" Isabel asked sympathtically

by **Connor Marshall** » Tue Jun 11, 2013 7:28 pm

"Went to the bloody Danger Room an' did it to get her off my bloody back," he growled, before stopping and taking a deep breath, trying to get a grip on himself.

by **Isabel Galen** » Wed Jun 12, 2013 1:41 am

"And it didn't go well..."

by **Connor Marshall** » Wed Jun 12, 2013 1:45 am

"Oh how the bloody hell could that go well," Connor shot back. "'Oh, just let go. Just oh, let all the bloody rage in! Because you can't possibly know what that's bloody like because you aren't a bloody werewolf, because I'm a bloody X-Man and I bloody know everything!'"

by **Isabel Galen** » Wed Jun 12, 2013 2:03 am

Isabel hugged him/her "Its all over now. And you're not furry, so..."

by **Connor Marshall** » Wed Jun 12, 2013 2:09 am

Connor tensed, then sighed. "Hell, you make it hard to stay pissed off, luv," he muttered. "That's a first..."

by **Isabel Galen** » Wed Jun 12, 2013 2:42 am

"You're not giving yourself enough credit."

by **Connor Marshall** » Wed Jun 12, 2013 8:28 am

He rolled his eyes and broke away. "Oh about bloody well what? Fer learnin' ta smile and ignore all the shite?"

by **Isabel Galen** » Wed Jun 12, 2013 11:40 pm

"Its an important thing to learn." Isabel said

by **Connor Marshall** » Thu Jun 13, 2013 12:31 am

"An' I did. Because that's just what you bloody have to do to keep from hitting EVERY. BLOODY. IDIOT you meet! All the bloody self-absorbed prats and..." He growled, throwing himself onto the couch, then wincing as he curled up in a sudden spasm of pain. "Damn it..."

by **Isabel Galen** » Thu Jun 13, 2013 12:34 am

"Want me to take are of that?" Isabel asked.

by **Connor Marshall** » Thu Jun 13, 2013 12:39 am

"Can't take away a bloody mutation, can you?" he shot back. "Had it all clamped down... everything smooth... then she had to bloody make me let it all back in again," he growled.

by **Isabel Galen** » Thu Jun 13, 2013 2:19 am

"Sorry, human-inhibitor-collar isn't part of the package." Isabel said "You just looked like you were physically in pain for a sec there."

by **Connor Marshall** » Thu Jun 13, 2013 2:32 am

"Bloody well did hurt. That shifting... isn't bloody pleasant. I bloody hurts... twists your body up just like your feelings are twisted up... Gah..."

by **Isabel Galen** » Thu Jun 13, 2013 2:46 am

"Its going to be ok." Isabel said.

by **Connor Marshall** » Thu Jun 13, 2013 3:01 am

"How. Do you know how bloody long it took to not bloody hate everyone? Everything? Lock it all up an' throw on a bloody happy face? Only now that had to all get bloody torn down because I get stuck in this bloody body and I'm supposed to be a bloody coward for not wantin' that... GOD DAMN IT!" he snarled, this time his teeth actually looking pointed as he took deep breaths to calm down.

by **Isabel Galen** » Thu Jun 13, 2013 11:58 pm

"shhhhshsh" Isabel said, putting a hand on his shoulder "Its ok. Seriously, its ok."

by **Connor Marshall** » Fri Jun 14, 2013 12:20 am

"How's it going to be all right," he muttered, his face buried in his hands. "Gah, damn all this shite..."

by **Isabel Galen** » Fri Jun 14, 2013 1:44 am

"This isn't going to last forever." Isabel said "and you've learned you have a bunch of anger to work through."

by **Connor Marshall** » Fri Jun 14, 2013 2:03 am

"You think I didn't bloody know that? I'm always bloody angry at everyone."

by **Isabel Galen** » Fri Jun 14, 2013 7:47 pm

"really?" Isabel asked, sounding surprised

by **Connor Marshall** » Fri Jun 14, 2013 9:31 pm

"And why bloody not," he shot back. "I... nevermind," he muttered, again focusing on calming the hell down.

by **Isabel Galen** » Fri Jun 14, 2013 9:54 pm

"Because some people really like you?" Isabel said

by **Connor Marshall** » Fri Jun 14, 2013 10:10 pm

"'Course they do, everyone loves the bloody bartender," he shot back. "All the bloody benefits of havin' a mate without actually havin' one."

by **Isabel Galen** » Sat Jun 15, 2013 1:37 am

"I want to be your friend." Isabel said.

by **Connor Marshall** » Sat Jun 15, 2013 1:59 am

At that... Connor did seem to relax. "I know, luv," he sighed. "Just... bloody hell. I hate this."

by **Isabel Galen** » Sat Jun 15, 2013 1:42 pm

"Of course you do." Isabel said "You were standing at the front of the line when mutations got passed out."

by **Connor Marshall** » Sat Jun 15, 2013 8:52 pm

"Oh sod off," Connor shot back, scowling. "You think I give a bloody toss what my mutation is?"

by **Isabel Galen** » Sun Jun 16, 2013 12:34 am

"No, because you got one that doesn't suck, so you don't have to think about it."

by **Connor Marshall** » Sun Jun 16, 2013 1:31 am

"Oh leave it out, luv. Everyone in this bloody place thinks the sun should bloody rise and set around being a mutant. Ya know what? If I never made another bloody forcefield for the rest of my life, I'd be bloody fine with it."

by **Isabel Galen** » Sun Jun 16, 2013 4:11 pm

"Oh, bullshit." Isabel said "Most people here would throw a freaking party if their mutation went away."

by **Connor Marshall** » Sun Jun 16, 2013 5:06 pm

"Yeah, well, most of 'em would have people to invite to it."

by **Isabel Galen** » Mon Jun 17, 2013 1:51 pm

"Connor, everyone is alone." Isabel said "Realizing it just means that you aren't lying to yourself."
