Kurt Wagner, Nightcrawler other times, bamph-ed through the X-mansion, where was everyone? The Jet was still here, so no missions. Scott's car was in the garage, so no one went into town. I mean it wasn't that concerning, just strange. Wait! Logan never went anywhere..... usually..... when he did he was gone a long ass time. Was this one of those times? Kurt couldn't remember if it was or wasn't. Well only one thing to do then. Kurt bamph-ed to right in front of Logan's room, he had asked Kurt to respect his privacy and not bamph into his room. Kurt knocked on Logan's door. "Are you in zer, my friend?"

LAURA strangely feels...different. She doesn't know why but she had felt compelled to rummage through old memories that morning. Within her fingertips rests Logan's dog tags. Thumb brushes over the metal, pensive gleam lingering... Her eyes rest concentrated outside Tony's old view when Happy rasps on the doorway. She's drawn from her odd daydream, swiftly shoving contents into her front pocket.

"I feel that I should brief you on what's happened..." he starts, but this only causes alarm. She tilts her head, glaring, an infamous gawk at that, and very familiar to Happy. That's when her nostrils flare-- that smell... it--couldn't be...

Laura cannot help but brush right past him, from one room to the next, she zooms about, hunting. Until, she stops in her tracks, her heart practically retracting. Lungs too, was she just punched? It feels like she's been punched - the wind directly knocked right out of her.

He's not her Logan. But he's Logan, just the same.

Once Happy catches up to her, he rests a palm on her shoulder, bad move. She's terribly on edge and thus, Happy ends up being slammed, landing on his back quite harshly as she pins him with a growl. "Geezes, Laura!" he billows. She comes-to, rolling her eyes, helping him up. "I need an explanation." she finally speaks. "Well if you would just let me, I would've given you one." Happy protests, readjusting himself. "The TVA's been in contact with us -he was sent here to preserve the...sacred timeline..." Laura shoots him a leer. "The what?!" eyes narrow before she looks to Logan accusatory. "Who are you?"

"He's your father, Laura. Same blood, same DNA...just. From a different world." Happy continues.

"I got that - shut up." she warns him, pushing Hogan aside and sauntering forward toward the one who looks and well, smells much like her biological dad.

(it's not him, it's not him, it's not him--)

and yet... he laughed the same. chewed and chomped on a cigar the same. wore the same kinds of shirts, had the same slight crease at the corner of his eyes where even a healing factor was no match to time's touch shown in crow's feet.

he smelled the same too. that was maybe the worst part for kurt. the sweet, smoky vanilla of cigars and the bright bite of canadian whiskey, the exact same one his logan used to drink.

still drank, if his universe was still standing. kurt didn't know and had long since given up finding out. what was the point when it had been months now here, and before that even longer in that hellscape of the voidland. kurt made peace with it, and then came this logan and his peace shattered.

it was too easy to fall into old habits.

(it's not him, it's not-)

like flirting shamelessly, even if his logan and this one were clueless to what kurt really meant. that was always okay, he didn't think it would ever be more, kurt never got his hopes up that way and he had plenty of ways to distract himself with plenty of other people who were obviously very, very willing.

but this universe felt different. like a new beginning. what was the harm?

so he leaned in, spoke his observation... and then a three fingered hand skated down the man's spine, the excuse for touch coming from the fact that this party was a little crowded in this tiny apartment. they were watching shatterstar show off switchblade tricks, wade being used as the assistant that got stabbed more often than not.

"mm, perhaps. but there is more to that. i am drawn to people who are dangerous... and not complete imbeciles. i like a little thoughtfulness in the risky behavior, a more obvious intent..." this was spoken with a lopsided smile, a smug knowing expression as he watched wade howl from losing another finger.

it wasn't him, but kurt didn't care just then.

SHE'S pacing. Nearly broke her own phone. She should've been smarter, should've noticed the signs - they were purposefully enticing her, leading her away for an opportunity. More than anything she is absolutely fuming...at herself. How could she have been so...STUPID?

IT'S NOT often she finds herself at the mansion on friendly business , but it does happen ( an echo of long days past , perhaps ) . and right now she leans on the wall near logan , arms crossed , lips pursed .
