Hello? ::knocks on the big front door::

[soymade]

Hello? I really need to talk to Raven, and she told me she's here sometimes. Like right now, I hope. Oh god. I've just... and now I can never

::was walking by when she hears the door, and opens it to find the crying girl. Her eyes go wide for a second before she reacts::

Raven isn't here right now. Are you alright? ::ushers the girl in:: Are you hurt?

[soymade]

::goes to clutch at your sleeve, but then holds her hands in toward her chest instead::

I'm... I'm fine.

::sob::

No, I mean, okay, I'm not fine. I'm not hurt, though. I just... do you know when she'll be back? I have this problem and I don't think the people here would really, um, get it.

[msmactaggy]

::shakes her head sadly:: I'm sorry. I haven't seen Raven since I got here. But that was only yesterday. So I'm not really sure where she is, or when she'll be back.

::puts a hand on her shoulder:: Your problem. Is it a - special sort of problem? I think people here might understand more than you think.

[soymade]

A spe-- what do you mean? What is this place?

*opens the door and is shocked to find her behind the door* My goodness... *puts a hand gently on her shoulder, looking her over with concern* I'm so sorry, Raven isn't in... Please, do come inside.

[soymade]

::flinches away from the hand until she realizes it's just touching her shirt::

Oh. Thank you. Do you know when she might be back? I really, really need to talk to her.

[groovy_mutant]

*puts two fingers from his free hand to his temple and sees that she fears anyone touching her skin* Has somebody hurt you, love? *moves his hand to the small of her back and leads her inside*

I-I'm afraid I haven't seen Raven for quite some time. Is there anything I can help you with?

[soymade]

No! I mean. I'm sorry. I just think... it's a private matter. I don't think you could help.

ooc: lol she wrong!

[sharkneto]

*sees her crying and half wants to comfort her but is still guarded*

Raven hasn't been able to join us just yet. Who are you?

[soymade]

I'm... a friend, I guess. She helped me when nobody else could. And now I really need to talk to her.

::starts thinking about it again and breaking too fast::

Some things went real bad, really fast.

[sharkneto]

*knows the feeling and tries to be warmer* Things have a tendency to do that. *puts a gentle hand on her shoulder* I'm Erik Lensherr, I'm a friend of Raven's. Can I help at all?

[soymade]

::jerks when his hand touches her shoulder, but it' okay, his fingers are only on her shirt::

A friend? Could you talk to her? I... something happened and I think I need a place to stay.

*Wandering the grounds when he spots her by the door*

*Stays back, hidden as much as he can, but listens in after he hears her ask about 'Raven'*

[soymade]

::looks behind her because she thought she heard something, but nothing's there. doesn't give it another thought::

[smoking_red]

*Figures it's just another mutant so he feels slightly more at ease, but still feels wary of her - he'll have to keep an eye on her in the future*

[shinybitch]

*walks in to see what this latest disturbance is*

My, Charles is like a magnet for all the mutant waifs and strays of the world.

*unlike Charles, has absolutely no qualms at all about getting all up in Rogue's head to see what's got her so upset*

You poor girl. You'll be safe here. Charles is an arrogant ass, but at least he takes care of his own kind.

[groovy_mutant]

*sees her and tenses* This is a delicate situation, Emma, and I hope that I won't have to ask you to treat it as such.

[shinybitch]

*glares* I have no intention of causing any further distress to the girl.

[groovy_mutant]

*glares right on back* I'm glad to see you have at least a little sense of propriety in you. Keep it up.
