Apparently I don't talk enough.

[xp_cyclops]

[I wasn't going to make this public. I started to, and then I stopped, and tried to let cooler heads prevail. It didn't work.]

I'm not one for idle conversation.

I'm also not a person who speaks when they don't have all the information, and aren't sure of the situation.

Apparently, to some people at this school, this is the equivalent of treating them like children.

I guess I have been keeping secrets then, simply because I haven't been talking. I haven't been speaking up first.

I hereby apologize to each and every person at this school for my behavior.

I am not social. I am not a people person. Logan once said I was a dick. He wasn't wrong.

However, in an attempt to mend fences and in the interest of not alienating students any MORE, I hereby offer to answer any question put to me as honestly and truthfully as I am able. And tell you if I am not able to answer that. Even why, if I can.

It's a step. A step toward opening up. Toward not treating you like children.

Take it.

How do you define "connections"?

There are the mindbutchers in that lab in Paris who might want to know where I've gone off to, and as the heir to the de la Rocha line that automatically makes me a target.

I do not believe that Alphonso knows where I am right now. It is not impossible that he could find out fairly easily, if he wished to.

What can you do against _that_, Mr Summers? How are we protected against the truly wealthy and powerful? Having a Gavin on-staff helps. Having the youngest daughter of the St Croix line present also makes us a target. I make us a target. Having a Frost being so highly visible helps protect us - but also opens us up to her enemies as well. The heir to the Shaw empire sits right down the hall, I think, and he burns to claim his legacy.

How do you propose to guarantee our safety?

Ah, of course. How silly of me.

We're not. Because no one will step forward and make the hard decisions. I cannot make them, as much as I would like to. I do not have access to the resources that I once had. St Croix could really care less, and is bulletproof. Gavin's a shapechanger - he can blend in, disappear, go back to the underground. Frost is a telepath and can shapeshift into a diamond.
