“Oh hey!” Bibi Jane turned around quickly from hauling her bag pack down the road towards the sound of footsteps. “Can you maybe help get some of these bags up to camp? I packed way too much, but I had all these mechanics laying around that I wanted to bring for the kids, and I fear I’ve overpacked.” 

Scott was doing his best to lay low, not wanting to deal with press or anyone, so he swung past a local grocery store to pick up some supplies for the main kitchen. He had other personal things in there as well, but the cart was growing so full, no one would be able to spot the Captain Crunch, condoms, or flowery shampoo mixed into the cart. “Oh hey, I didn’t see you there.” He said to thhe person who was now beside him.

Scott was sitting at his desk in his office, playing with his ID, thinking. It was inevitable, he’d have to  register, but he didn't want to. At the same time, he was already registered as a mutant, what was one more annotation. As the leader, he should have been the first in line to set a good example to non-mutants and non-supers, the chaos people could start with him not signing up...and yet, he was unmoved. He stood with the mutants, and this was his way of showing solidarity. But, he had a team to lead, a school to run, worried parents to comfort...Scott looked up at who entered his office. “What’s your opinion.” He asked, clearly feeling defeated.
