Illyana stared blankly at Jubilee for a moment as she tried defending her reasoning for the display, but Illyana didn’t care much for it Jubilee was an adult she could do what she wanted. “ You done yet?” she said once she was able to get a word in. She walked around as she spoke, “You don’t have to explain yourself to me. You think I haven’t off before? Hell I wouldn’t even blame you if you went all firecracker in a kids face to scare them, I’ve done it when they’ve been little #!@%s before.” she laughed thinking back to the time. “ I’m not the prof, so you won’t get any grief from me. Besides you're not wrong, the younger they’re taught right the better. Although you might want to prepare for some angry parents, kids cant keep their mouths shut.”

Jubilee looked down at her hands, shifting her rings from finger to finger. She had screwed up, everyone knew she had screwed up. She should feel guilty, or ashamed, or angry with herself. But the thing was, she had never felt more alive than she did finally getting to use her powers to make people happy after so long.

She tried to speak with as little emotion as possible, “I know, I know it was reckless. But really it was just a bit of fun, they’re kids, they don’t know any better. And if they know me and that I’m a mutant and all they think is their teacher who puts on light shows maybe things will get better. RIght?”

This series really needs more Illyana.

"Magik is as fundamentally evil as a character that can be imagined. The irony with Magik is that deep down inside, she knows she's evil - she is so evil she would scare Lucifer half to death! But there's a part of her that doesn't want to be evil, the super hero part of her."

“does something like that ever really go away?”

“either you tell me what’s going on, or i’m leaving.”

“i don’t get why you feel like you have to keep that a secret. it’s not like it’s shameful or anything.”

“if i do get the urge to run, i’ll take you with me.”

“you should be so proud of what you’re doing.”

“the things you used to say, the things you did, that kind of person doesn’t end up here.”

“that’s not who i am. and it hurts that you would think that.”

“i am filled with an unbearable sadness.”

“okay, i know it’s part of your job to be charming and wonderful. and you’re very… very good at it. but am i being an idiot in thinking that there’s something more here?”

“Uh–” Billy Batson hadn’t technically, but Shazam! had. The average person didn’t know the difference though, which was probably for the better. “Not really.” He semi-lied. “Wanna gimmie a better word for it?”

“ Well, to start, don’t use icky’s or thingies. It makes you sound like a little kid who doesn’t know what they’re doing.” She shook her head. Though, she figured, if you had to use the add-on, it should at least be badass-y. Of all things. “ Just call it magic,” she tilted her head, smirking, “ or, if you wanted, you could call it ‘ Yana’s really powerful magic shit.’ ”

[magikchylde]

“ People don’t call me a stubborn mule for nothing.” Illyana snorted. “ Tell me about it, you’d think we’re sloths.” she shook her head. How long would this take? She’d already had a long morning, and all she wanted was to enjoy her pickles and ice cream in peace. She leaned sideways to glance at the commotion, “ Whatever the hold up is, they better hurry because I’m not opposed to slapping a twenty on the counter and leaving at this rate. ”

@magikchylde​: ‘ know i’ll never leave. ’

“Never?” Diana repeated, with a faint smile. Fairly sure the young woman was putting her on. “That’s a very long time. You must be rather dedicated.” A soft chuckle fell from her lips, and she shrugged. “This line does seem to be moving very slowly,” she said, glancing ahead toward the cashier, who appeared to be in a rather heated conversation with the current customer. “I hope everything is alright.” ​

[magikchylde]

Illyana couldn’t help but stare at Kitty as she ate, she may as well have been Kirby at the rate she was inhaling her food. “ Oh? Forgive me for interrupting you while you eat your precious Kung Pao Chicken, Kitty.” Illyana laughed as she picked up her chopsticks and stuffed her face with Sweet and Sour Pork. “ Believe me, it is.” she said with her mouth full; Illyana wasn’t known for her table manners especially around those she was close with. “ The big-brained thinks he knows-it-all was asking about you.” Ok, so maybe it wasn’t as important as the chicken.

☆ﾟ*·ﾟNOT EVEN THINKING about how she might’ve looked to anyone around her, Kitty practically inhaled her food, shoving it in her mouth like she hadn’t eaten in days. As she chewed, she tried her best to breathe, hoping that she wouldn’t wind up making herself sick, but she didn’t care. It was absolutely delicious. Finally taking a breath between her bites, she lifted her head lookin up at the person in front of her. “Whatever you have to say better be more important than this Kung Pao Chicken, ‘cause right now, I can’t process much else.”

Why was she here again? Illyana couldn’t fathom why she’d agree to take a tour of this guy’s ship. Yeah, space tech and all that seemed interesting, but this guy was something else. “ Trash panda? You sure it wasn’t the man-child? ” she questioned as she kicked aside a piece of scrap, it looked like a metal eyeball but she wasn’t going to question it. “ What, exactly, is the magic? ” she continued as she looked around, “ Pressing some buttons and pulling some levers? Sounds pretty straightforward to me.”

open starter for @assemblestarter​ !!

❝ don’t mind the mess, ❞ peter said opening the door of the milano, letting them in first, ❝ it’s a bit hard to maintain with a TRASH PANDA LIVING IN IT. ❞ he shouted the last bit. he knew rocket wasn’t on board at the moment, but rocket had a tendency to hear everything; might as well help him out. peter made his way to the front of the ship, spreading his arms out to show it off, ❝ here’s where the magic happens … just tuned it up myself. ❞ he bragged, slapping the back of the captain’s seat. his seat, he would remind everyone.

Illyana glanced at the woman next to her. Overshare much? “ While I’m sure your adventures in licking things off  sorority girls is all the excitement, it can’t be that bad.” she said plainly. Reaching over, Illyana grabbed the woman’s drink, tipping it towards her in cheers, before downing it in one go. She wiped her mouth. . . . Okay. So maybe it was that bad. She raised her hand, signaling for the barkeep and looked at the woman “ What do you want? ”

Beth took a sip of her martini, legs crossed as she sat at the bar of the Siren’s Club. She had just gotten into the city a week or so ago. “This is a shit. I thought this was supposed to be a high end place? I’ve licked things off sorority girls tastier than this..” she frowned putting the glass down. @assemblestarter​

[magikchylde]

“ You do realize my birthday is months away, right? ” she questioned, trying to hold back a laugh at M’gann’s excitement. “ Besides, I doubt many would even show up. I’m not the most well-liked.” although, “A party in general, does sound like fun.”

“-so I just kept thinking and thinking and then I realized Hello M’gann!! I could just ask you what you want to do for your birthday.” She exclaimed with a wide grin. “I could plan you your dream birthday party, or non-party, just a fun birthday.” / @assemblestarter​

John had watched the woman fight the little demon it was an interesting technique but it was still funny to see her yelling at the demon attached to her leg. He watched her open the portal something that took a great deal of magical talent and merely throw the demon through. “I mean I know I would, given I don’t like being bitten by those little suckers, There was this one incident in LA that had little demons morphed into me. Attacked me me with an inch of their life it was crazy.”

Illyana laughed, most would’ve warned her against it, but unless you’ve been on the other side of a demon’s mouth could you really have an opinion? (i mean, have you smelled their breath? revolting!) “ You give them an inch, and the next thing you know they’re trying to put you out of business.” she rolled her eyes. The amount of times she’s had to deal with insubordination from the denizens of limbo would likely be her breaking point one day. “ Wait… did they morph into one form,” she paused, her eyes widening, “or were you fighting off a horde of yourself? ” Though Illyana enjoyed a good fight, she couldn’t imagine the nightmare it’d be to fight multiples of herself.
