"Who's tha-"

*knocks on the door of the stall* "Hey, whoever's in there? You'kay?"

`Did your powers drop again? Because that would be disappointing.`

::she wipes her face and opens the door. damnit! if only it was her brother instead, maybe shed be able to bear crying on his shoulder. telling him what happened. but no, leaving herself vulnerable and open with Johnny is a whole other off-limits Pandra's box of unwanted potential::

I got a B on one of my final papers! ::that sounds like something Plain Jean would cry over. she lets a dramatic sniffle in:: Its - It's stupid I know but I just - I knew the subject so well.

"What the- are you serious? You're a genius, how did you .." She knelt down next to her. "That's really not the end of the world, hey. You have Thor and your friends and come on. You're more than this, Jean. You're this big amazing bright sun and it's an honor to have you here. Now get out of that disgusting toilet before we catch something."

::an angry fearsome vengeful sun::

I know. ::pulls herself to stand and smooths her clothing. disheveled and a mess isn't a good look on anyone:: I know, you're right. Im being an idiot over this. It's just - Pam might get valediction if I slip again. Maybe I should let her, after the election. ::does she even care about things like that anymore? It feels almost foreign::

You're a pretty bright cookie yourself though. Don't discount that. ::forces smile and cheer over her personal terror::

*so awkward, knocks on the bathroom door* Um. Hello?

[lightphoenixj]

...Logan? ::sniffles, wipes her eyes and cracks the door:: You might have a slight penis problem, being in here.

[thebest_thereis]

Jean? *turns around D:* I heard crying. What's going on?

[lightphoenixj]

::wipes her face on her sleeve and just stares at him a minute, eyes wide::

Logan. I... ::she can't hide herself from him. The tears star flowing and she buries herself against his chest::

I did... something horrible. You... you were right... ::clings to him so tight it feels the world might end if she lets go::

[lightphoenixj]

::mumbles to herself through sniffles:: God, when did this bathroom turn into Grand Central Station?

::deep breath::

Hi. I'm - I'm fine. I promise.
