Email to Arthur

Arthur, I had the strangest encounter this week. I met a young man named Billy Kaplan and it just feels like I know that name from somewhere. People like you and me do not believe in coincidences and that is not a common name.

Would you mind doing some digging for me? The Billy I met will be coming to the mansion at some point and I would rather not have another nasty surprise pop up from the woodwork.

Home Again

The Canadian government and the Hudsons have finally agreed that I have fully briefed them and completed a comprehensive assessment of my physical and mental conditions following, well, that brief bout of death I caught. If I had known how much paperwork was involved, I might have made other choices.

Anyhow, I have successfully smuggled all your Canadian snack requests over the border and into my room. Feel free to drop by for your cans of Tim Horton's coffee, Coffee Crisps, Smarties, Aeros, Ketchup, Dill Pickle and All-Dressed chips, and a couple of boxes of Passion Flakies. Yes, I have also completed people's booze orders as well. The local LCBO officially named me Person of the Year after seeing the final bill for your requests.

Be warned. Gord's been cooped up in Toronto so he went straight to the woods. If you find very small bits of things that are normally in or part of a small animal, it's likely his fault. I'm not returning to active status as an X-Man immediately, but I can be found in the Danger Room running refreshers for the next few days.

Sam and Paige | College Acceptance

Sam shares some big exciting news with Paige - it certainly ends in excitement.

What to do with a couple of weird teenagers, particularly one who's a fugitive from the law? If you're the X-Men, you invite them to your home.

The Lost Boys | A Summoning

Billy and Tommy try a spell to commune with whatever is behind the sigil they keep seeing. That was a mistake.

( For all the bickering squabbles they'd had over the last few days, there was one thing Billy knew for certain: he couldn't let Tommy go back. )

Meanwhile, Wanda has some startling intel for Scott.

( Two teenage boys somehow managed to make off with a magical tome, somewhere in New Jersey. Eastview. )

Text to Pops (Kyle and Doug)

Could one of you bring me to the store? I would like to see their instruments.

Group TXT to Kyle & Angel

I've decided, after much deliberation, to assist the two of you in your nefarious doughnut schemes... my aid doesn't come without price, however - I'd really, really like a doughnut that's not awful, please. Just let me know when I'm meant to be offering Marius the item in question.

The Lost Boys | Investigations

Billy and Tommy hit up the public library to learn something about the weird symbol they say in the magic 8-ball. They need to work on their teamwork a bit.

( Why should William Kaplan get what he wants when he can make a total fool of himself instead? )

Later, they are rebuffed by a local fortuneteller, but slip away with something potentially useful, anyway.

( Your life line is broken in two. Both of you. )

Kyle and Angel (Backdated)

Angel and Kyle reunite, eat donuts, and are super sincere for like .2 seconds. Backdated to July 29.

What do you call it when you cannot get a song out of your head and it is on a infinite loop? The song is very infectious.

Clea, Kyle, greenhouse

Kyle and Clea discuss a second greenhouse, just for magic plants.

Oh yeah sure bylaw only calls you back AFTER the weekend-long noise violation is over? What the hell kind of democracy is this?

"Next time you only have to leave one message." If you were doing your damn job, I wouldn't have had to leave any. Does the mutant cabal control city council yet? Can you get on that? Some of us were just trying to work on the long weekend.

This city gets worse every fucking year, I swear to god.

FOOD

The festival was great. I require more food.

But ALSO if you were there I probably got at least one photo of you, so let me know if you want it! I have some great shots of people eating. Yes I know no one looks good when they're eating. I'm just that amazing as a photographer.
