The Blackbird

She's going to be down for at least another few days, I'm afraid, and that's with all of the pitching-in people have been doing already. There was just so much damage, and we're waiting on a few parts still. Then add a day or two for adjustments and testflights... I wouldn't want to take her back into the field until we're sure all the patches hold together.

Seems to me if Jean ain't got a problem with Summers about what went on, it ain't your place to, runt. She ain't your wife, it ain't your problem.

Maybe you're comfortable with husbands taking shots at their wives, Cain, but for some of us that shit don't fly.

Won't even get into him cutting and running like that.

And how many people here have you taken a shot at, Logan? You were dumb enough to try and throw down with me when you first showed back up, you took a chunk out of Nate - maybe we need a sixteen year old girl to come on down and put you in your place, hmm?

It don't matter what shit don't fly with you - because I'll say it again: she ain't your wife - it ain't your place. Learn to live with it already.

So much for morals and takin' a stand.

I done a lot I'm not proud of. I know that.

If takin' a pop at our loved ones becomes standard policy, lemme know. Least no-one can accuse me of lovin' you or Nate.

Logan, if you think that this was about me slapping around my wife, then... you know what? Feel free to come knock at my door and we can make an appointment for you to express your displeasure with the idea in a more direct way, where our teammates don't have to listen to any of this.

Think they deserve to hear it, rather than you sweeping it under the rug by letting me beat you bloody.

No matter how sweet it'd be.

[x-cyclops.livejournal.com]

Did I say anything about letting you beat me, bloody or otherwise?

[x-wolverine.livejournal.com]

If it's talk you want to do, I'm listening.

But you do it here. In the open, for all to see.

[x-cyclops.livejournal.com]

No, I don't. Not on your say-so, Logan.

What happened between Jean and I in Florida is between us unless someone else - like you - decides they have some reason to need an explanation too. I'm willing to respect that and give you one, given that we have to work together, but you don't have reason, or right, to demand that the explanation goes to everyone.

All right, fine.

Can't wait to hear this one.

[x-ccelerate.livejournal.com]

Oh, must we all see? You're the only one in need of a rabies shot on this particular issue, and since it's none of your business in the first place Summers is demonstrating excessive charity by tolerating your ham-handed protective instinct at all.

[x-wolverine.livejournal.com]

This from a Lehnsherr? From your sister, maybe I'd take some of that.

From you? I don't think so.

[x-ccelerate.livejournal.com]

I'll keep that in mind.

[x-scarletwitch.livejournal.com]

I think you boys are old enough to fight your own battles without bringing me into it.

[x-wolverine.livejournal.com]

Feel free to sit this one out, Wanda.

But I'm not real inclined to take morality advice from Captain Brotherhood over there.

He hasn't earned that right.

[x-scarletwitch.livejournal.com]

This is an exercise in futility since neither of you will listen to the other. My brother is a big boy, he can take care of himself but I would rather not have you insult him to me.

Only I can do that.

And as far as I'm concerned, you haven't earned that right. See, now, what I mean about an exercise in futility?

[x-jeangrey.livejournal.com]

I seem to recall you hitting me and then attempting to rip out my internal organs, come to think of it.

Stop this. Now.

I was, I believe, fifteen at the time. However, I think Doug may have been sixteen when Logan threatened his life for -looking- at Marie.
