It had been a while since they had kissed anyone - the last person had been Sera, and she had broken their heart, rejecting them after learning the truth about their family. But Carolina already knew - already knew about the devil worshippers, about where people in Avery's family drew power from. And as far as Avery was aware, it didn't matter to her - it didn't change things. 

	So this kiss felt different - it felt healing. 

	When it ended, and Carolina pulled away, Avery's body was both buzzing and still. They took a deep breath, just taking the moment to look at her face, to study it, before Carolina asked what this meant - and kissed them again. 

	Truthfully, Avery didn't know what it meant. [color=f26522]"Is that what you want?"[/color] they murmured. 


[hr]	Runa tilted her head, considering the map on the device. The sling ring that she used did require a location - a person wasn't a suitable anchor for its spell. It was honestly difficult to parse, whether or not this would work - she had never tried to divine a location by these means. Perhaps the electronic map was still a map, but perhaps it would resonate differently. Runa was familiar with spells where a map would be burned to reveal the location, or where water would be spilled onto the surface and pool at the location - neither of which seemed feasible with this Midgardian technology. "What do you think, cousin? I am unsure if this would be feasible..." But their magics were different, perhaps it would work for Klara where it would not for Runa.

She hadn't been unaware of this - she'd known for a while how easily this all could go to shit, how quickly Mary could just lose control and kill them all. But she hadn't been able to do anything about it, and with each passing day that Mary was more or less fine, the danger slipped away a little bit more. And it wasn't like she could build a giant gun to kill the Phoenix and force it out of Mary - she'd chatted the logistics with her dad already, before everything with Miranda, and neither of them had been able to come up with something suitable. 

	Not yet, at least. 

	She wished that she felt inspired, ready to go save Mary. Instead, she just wanted to go to her room, curl up into a ball, and watch TV until this was all over. Instead, she closed her eyes, and put a hand to her head. They needed all hands on deck. It was time to go save the fucking world - or die trying. 

	At first, she couldn't quite get a hold of everyone's minds properly, a giant ringing noise pulsing through them all. But then, the ringing cleared, and Guin got her message on through: 

	[color=cc33ff][i]Emergency situation. Meet in the war room, X-Men. It's Mary.[/i][/color]
