Alex Summers has posed:
Alex walks in wearing his super suit and smells like he just left the danger room. The scent isn't stink, but more like ozone even though he doesn't use electricity. Perhaps ozone mixed with some sort of ionizing chemical. It's hard to distinguish the actual smell of the fourth state of matter; plasma. None the less, Alex, super suit, head gear down, and he pushes through the flappy door and is already moving toward the refrigerator when he glances around the room to see if there are other occupants. Still, the fridge is his destination.

Rachel Summers has posed:
Rachel Summers Is here. She's got a mug of something hot from the steam in her hands.. She looks lots in thought but there's a deep sadness on her face. She gives a low sigh. She hasn't noticed Alex.. she hears somebody come in, but is in her own head.

Alex Summers has posed:
"Hey Ray, whaddah ya say? Why so glum?" He asks in a rhyme as he walks to grab something out of the fridge, opening the door taking a platter, then closing it. He glances back to her as he turns and waits for an answer, or an indication that she'd rather hit him.

Rachel Summers has posed:
Rachel Summers Blinks and looks up, snapping out, " Oh, hi, Uncle Alex," She says as she shakes her head as if that will get rid of it. She frowns. " I've been trying to get my memories back, but all I've done is bring up old ones that made me kinda depressed ".

Alex Summers has posed:
"oooh." he says in a saddened and sympathetic tone. He walks over and sets the platter down on the table. It's got quite a bit of cold chicken on it. He places his hand on her shoulder, "Sorry bout that. But hey, you're here now. With us, doing us things. You know, saving the world - and stuff."

Rachel Summers has posed:
Rachel Summers Smiles " Yeah I guess. you know, I don't even know who my dad is for sure.. I was told it was Scott, but " she shrugs her shoulders, " Mum was with a few guys at that time, so. " She spreads her hands .. " I'm a summer I know that. " she looks at him. "But ya know," she sighs, " just heavy thoughts " .

Alex Summers has posed:
"Oh 100 percent it's Scott." he says with a grin, "I can't believe Hank hasn't done the ole lab testing on you for answers. "As for your mom being with a few guys... Nah. She may have dated Warren and that other goober.. whatever his name was. But there's no way she got pregnant and then came back to the X-Men without anyone knowing she was carrying you."

Rachel Summers has posed:
Rachel Summers Nods and smiles " Thanks that helps " she say softly " Somebody made me question it.. she was with , I was gonna ask hank acutally " She says softly " No in my time line she was with logan and my dad and one other fellow "

Alex Summers has posed:
"Logan... pshaw. You look too much like your mom and Scott to be one of Logan's kids. They're all super short and hairy. You're not hairy, are you? Nor do you smell like cheap cigars. So nope, not logan's kid. Yuck." he says with a grin before he takes a bite of chicken leg.

Rachel Summers has posed:
Rachel Summers laughs brightly " I dunno laurra is super cute you know " she smirks " She isn't the least bit hairy unless you count her long awsome hair " she counters back

Alex Summers has posed:
"Super cute, with claws? Pshaw. But she's like 5' nothing. What are you, 5'9"? And your hair is way better." Alex says hoping to distract you from the doldrums and the path you have been on. Also trying to be super supportive - as any uncle should be.

Rachel Summers has posed:
Rachel Summers Hip bumps her ucle and nods " yeah .. i'm gonna check with hank to be sure but same time I think your right " she beams " i'm better now .. I had other evil but that was the source "

Alex Summers has posed:
"Good to hear. Now go have a great day while I eat this chicken. I'm starving." reports Alex as he takes a seat and starts doing just that. Leaving Rachel to her day.
