Some Downtime (While Bucky is talking to Tasha)
Quinn was enjoying the few moments of downtime they seemed to have been blessed with by spending it out in Moscow. While he wasn't a mutant, he could pass himself off as one if needed. Only a telepath or a genetic scan would prove he wasn't one. First order of business was getting some cash. That meant a little transmutating of some stones into rubles. He was not above using magic for his own benefit.

With money in hand he set out and found the closest bar. Beer would have been nice, but the bar apparently only had watered down crap and Quinn was a beer snob. He only drank good beer and what the bar had was definitely not good beer. The burger was good and so was the vodka.

Once he was done eating, he headed for the closest clothing store and bought himself two new sets of clothes and a bag to carry them in. No way was he going to be stuck wearing the same outfit as they hopped from dimension to dimension. He would have bought a few pairs of shoes, but they were bulky and a pain to carry. His current ones were okay for now.

He headed back to the hotel.

"Uh, how about you pick. I haven't been to many restaurants, or even fast food. I'm not picky."

Quinn sighed. Females had to be difficult. Always. It was a universal law.

"What are you in the mood for? Name it and we'll find it."

"Quinn, seriously, you pick. Before I was an Exiles I grew up in a war zone and I spent the last year hounded by sentinels. I'm sure I'll love whatever you pick."

He sighed. "Okay. Let me toss these in my room." He was on his way to his room before she could say another word.

"All right." Blink looked around while she waited.

I really miss you guys.

"A'right, Beautiful, let's go," Quinn said when he returned. He held out an arm in a gentlemanly gesture.

That was not unexpected but still awkward. Blink took his arm anyway. "Thanks."

"You're welcome." He tucked her arm under his and smiled. He looked over at her and the smile faded from his face. "Are you okay? You're looking a little down."

Nice and observant. "Yes, I was just... thinking about my last teammates, my friends."

Fun, joking and flirty Quinn was left behind. Serious Quinn now took over.

"You miss them." His arm released hers and he wrapped it around her waist and hugged her against his side. "Tell me about them."

That was a lot more intimate than she'd been with anyone in a long time. It both thrilled and terrified her.

"They were- they were all amazing. I know being shuffled around realities was harder on them than it was on me but I could always count on them."

He nodded. "Friends like that are hard to find. It's always nice to have someone who has your back. What were their names? What could they do?"

Blink let the words spill from her mouth. "We lost Magnus on our first mission. I never knew him well. Morph was a shape shifter, he was always joking. Mariko, Sunfire, had the same powers as the Sunfire from my world. Heather could turn into a giant monster type creature. TJ, she had several powers. She could slip inside someone and possess them for a time. She also had hex bolts, at least that's what she called them. She was with Thunderbird, he... he was badly hurt fighting Galactus. He went into a coma. We had to move on without him. And Cal..." She trailed off.

What if the Timebroker was telling the truth? What if they could be alive?

He hugged her. "Cal was special to you. I'm sorry you lost him when you ended up with us."

It was hard to keep herself from shaking, nearly impossible, in fact.

"I thought they were dead."

He could feel her shaking. He stopped walking and pulled her in for a real hug. He didn't say anything, but just hugged her. If she wanted to talk she would. He wasn't going to force her.

"Would you like to go back? We can do dinner out some other time. I'll order some room service for you if you're hungry."

"I- I don't-" She wiped a tear from her eye. "Yes, I think so."

"Come then," he said softly before releasing her. He kept an arm around her to walk her to her room.

She had to brush away some more tears from her face. "I'll remember that, Quinn."

"Let me do that," he said gently and took a thumb to brush away a tear or two. Crying females were a huge hole in his not so shiny armor.

"Good. I don't want you to think you're alone. We all need to stick together and be there for each other."

"I know." Clarice said quietly.
