fourthwalled | Etraya IC Inbox

[he'd made a few others like for cable and storm, but he'd thought of nate as he'd suspected as much. his life had seemed bad, not that they'd talked about it much. still he'd could read between the lines and not just because he could fourth wall.]

Well now you have. I've popped your friendship bracelet cherry 😉

[he could practically feel cable's glare boring into his skull as he types and he's not even there. behave wade.]

( He doesn't get it but sure. )

Are you staying at the mansion?

for the moment.
you?

Yeah. What do you mean for the moment? You're not planning to stick around?

For as long as everyone wants me around I'll be here.
Not my first stint hanging at an X-Mansion.
It didn't work out back home for long.

This is my first time in it. But why didn't it work for you?

I'm not X-Men material.
Don't follow the rules.
I'm a wildcard.
Didn't matter that I could make a bomb ass ceviche.

( Hm. )

I don't really do teams myself. Solmara was frustrating for that.

oh yeah?
you butt heads with the team?

No. ( How did Quentin put it? ) There were just too many cooks in the kitchen.

ah.
no clear leader, everyone having their own ideas.
cats and dogs living together, mass hysteria.

a good learning experience though?
maybe?

Sure. Not really looking to work with others like that again I don't think. I'm better off doing it myself.

sure sure
sometimes that's true.

but like... a team up with at least one other person isn't so bad?

Maybe. When do you plan on giving me this bracelet?

if you're at the mansion it could be right now.
I'm not doing anything.

I'm in my room.

( Hiding? Not him. )

[Wade doesn't answer, instead a few minutes later there will be a knock at his door. Once he opens it, Nate will find Wade standing there in all his scarred glory in a pair of Hawaiian shorts and a N'SYNC t-shirt.

Has he seen him without his mask? Who can remember? He holds out the bracelet expectantly.]

Your friendship bracelet, my good sir.

( Nate's there on his bed with a book in hand that he was giving a look over because... there wasn't many of these around where he was from. Or, well. Not many he'd had a chance to see for himself. Even outside of Etraya, given how much he's moved around, he's never had the time to really indulge in "normal things" like this, so. Why not look at a book?

When Wade comes in, bright blue eyes blink at his attire more than the scarring and, with a lift of his hand, he telekinetically pulls the bracelet over to him... along with Wade after, mostly because he knows Wade enjoys flying and all.

Bracelet in hand, he looks it over with genuine curiosity. )

So you wear these to prove your friendship to another?

[This is going to become a thing, isn't it? Nate floating him around. Hopefully so because Wade is all about it!]

That's right. To prove your friendship but also to remind you? [He lifts both wrist to show a few on his wrists, including one that matches the one he'd given to Nate as he'd not been around to make one back.]

This one is from Cable, Storm, Fio, and this one is yours obviously...

( Raise of his brow, he looks with skepticism to Wade there. )

Cable made you a bracelet?

( That's more a dig at his big bro than Wade because, well. It's Cable. )

Of course he did. He's a big softy, don't let the cursing and grumbling fool you.

[Plus Cable did all sorts of things for Wade that he probably wouldn't be caught dead doing for anyone else. Or maybe that's just Wade's own wishful thinking that he's special.]

I do think he wishes he'd been out there on the mission with you. He'd probably never say it, but I think he was worried.

Well I guess someone had to keep an eye on you all here.

( Was that someone Cable? Who knows. But Nate's looking back at the bracelet again and slowly turning it around between his fingers before he lifts those blue eyes of his to meet the other's gaze. )

I don't have one of these to give you.

I made one to match, but it's not quite the same as you making one obviously... but maybe you can make me one at some point to return the favor?

[wade suggests with a shrug, now that he's no longer floating, moving to sit at the edge of the bed. He not so subtly peers at the book Nate had been reading to see what it is.]

Only if you want to, of course. No pressure.

( The book in question is Treasure Island, though his attention is more on the bracelet than the book. )

I don't know how to make one. ( A beat. ) But I could figure it out.

( In telepath words, download the information from another. )

[The one with the Muppets? Nice, nice. Good choice.]

I'm sure you could. Or I could teach you? [No need to yank it out of anyone's head, cowboy.] Just putting it out there.
