Sophie fidgeted - she had gone slightly stir-crazy sitting in an empty room with nothing to do, having run out of ice cream within the first half hour. Now she didn't even have the fear of an unknown intruder to keep her focussed, she found her mind wandering in the boredom that comes from having had absolutely nothing to do for far, far too long.

Scott gave Paul some directions to Kitty's room and turned to Sophie. "Come on. Let's go back to the danger room. I can teach you a little bit about how to fight."

"Fight?!" Sophie definitely did not like that idea. "I just agreed to come check the place out! I don't want to fight!]
[OOC: I don't have any kind of fighting skill. I do, however, have a -6 to them due to being blind. I'm confused as to your intentions.]

"Do mind if I join you when I'm done, I'm a little rusty, not much chance to train when you've been avoiding human contact for over a year."

[OOC: Scott's used to fighting blind, and he's met someone who may need to defend herself. Of course he's going to offer]
"Not a proper fight," Scott said. "Just some training. So you can defend yourself if you have to. And you're welcome to spar if you want, Paul. Might be interesting to have you go up against Kurt..."

BAMF!
Kurt vanished from where he had been standing and appeared behind Paul. "I believe that would be how so."

"Oh right the one who owns teleporting. I wouldn't get too excited it's not so much teleporting. It's hard to explain, I go through one shadow and come out another. Has to be a shadow to not just darkness which means ironically it is most effective during the day when there's plenty of light being blocked."

"We can simulate that in the Danger Room," Scott said. "Fill it with shadows. It can simulate whatever environment you like."

"Cool" Said Paul grinning "I'll find my way there when I'm done with the phone." He then left through the door, off to find Kitty.

"I'll pass," Sophie said, in a tone that allowed for absolutely no argument.

"All right," Scott said. "Perhaps you'd like to see the Professor. If there's anything in your mind about this Fiona woman, maybe someone you met before and forgot about, he can help you remember. If you're comfortable with that sort of thing."

(OOC: This post seems to be missing bits who can help you remember? and the the future thing feels a bit blunt and open not sure if thats intentional.)

Paul knocked on Kitty's door.

There was silence for a few moments, and then a head emerged from the door. Not that the door bothered to open first.
"Who are you?" the disembodied head of a short woman asked. "Nevermind," she said. "Jean just explained. Come on in."
With that a hand came out from the door as well, grabbed Paul and pulled him straight through the door.

"Conversation must be a lost art here." Paul said disconcerted by passing through the door but at this point taking everything in stride. "would an active call make this easier?" He asked pulling out his phone.

"Nah," Kitty said. "The phone company keeps track of how good a signal any given phone has, and from what towers. Just give me the number, I'll do some Google magic to find out what company it's for, hack their databases and triangulate her phone that way. Which is, you know, wildly illegal. But so is the Blackbird jet we keep underground so... best not to sweat the little things. Actually, that reminds me..."
Kitty whistled a single high pitched note, and a small... thing appeared in the window. In spite of all reason and common sense, there was no other way to describe it than as a tiny dragon, a little smaller than the average housecat.
"Lockheed, be a dear and fetch me one of those bugs he brought in his bag?"
The dragon croaked in response and flew off again.

"Fair enough." Paul agreed and handed her the phone, after bringing up the number on the screen.

Kitty hummed to herself slightly as she went work. "Well, it's a New York area code, not that that means much about where she's calling from. As for the phone..."
Kitty frowned at the screen. "Well that complicates things. Or simplifies them. Not sure which yet. It's a Stark phone. I can't hack that. At least not, you know, with a computer. I may be able to hack this the old fashioned way."
Kitty shifted some junk around her desk until she was able to locate her phone and placed a call.
"Hi, Pepper," she said into the phone. "Is Tony there? Uh-huh. Define "busy? Yeah, that's what I thought. Tell him it's important, and may have something to do with Hydra. Yeah, I can wait."
Kitty covered the microphone with her hand and whispered to Paul. "You wouldn't believe what a pain in the ass he is, but he and Xavier go way back."
After a few moments, the dragon flew through the window, with no small amount of effort, holding Paul's bag in its claws and dropping it at Kitty's feet.
"Uh... thanks, Lockheed, but where are the bugs?"
Lockheed tilted his head in confusion. Kitty's eyes got wide as she started to rifle through the bag. "There were bugs in here! What happened to them?"
She grabbed the phone again. "Sorry, Pepper, call you back, something came up."

Not trusting himself to speak, having been in a constant state of confusion for several minutes now, Paul settled for conveying confusion on his face.

Sophie ignored the suggestion of fighting, first finding a rubbish bin in which to toss the empty ice cream tub, then finding the kitchen sink and washing her coffee mug and spoon. Then, she went to take a nap after a long and frankly stressful day.
[OOC: Don't feel any need to hurry to tomorrow on my account. Roleplay at your own paces.]

[OOC: She's tired and stressed, and has the Stubborn hindrance. I did genuinely forget the post but you know what? It stands, we can probably assume she said no, I'm going to take a nap or something]
