Sorting Things Out (open)
Cait was at her favorite place down by the lake. There was a lot to mull over and she needed some quiet to work it all out in her head. The mansion was generally a noisy and busy place and not good for getting some quiet to think. A prank war was starting up and Cait didn't want to get caught up in it. Maybe if Corey had been here....

A new dimensionally challenged family member. It was a lot to process and a lot think about. Arthur seemed nice enough, but there were a lot of unspoken issues and history. Cait wanted to ask him more about his home world and his life, but was unsure of how to do it without upsetting him. She wanted to understand him and the situation better. He was family and she wanted to help.

She thought about asking Misha or Rachel how they dealt with dimensionally challenged siblings showing up, but she wasn't sure they'd be able to help. Different situations and Cait didn't think their siblings came with a background like Arthur's.

Cait stared out over the water as she tried to figure out what to do.

	"Four or five years now," she said. "I first met him when he first came to Xavier's. We were just friends until we recently found out we liked each other." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"That's awesome." Cassidy says. "Does he get along with your brothers? Do your parents like him?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"He gets along well with Corey. They've known each other for two years. Rufus just met him. Mom and Dad know him and think he's nice, but they just learned we're dating so I don't know if anything will change." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Well, if he's as cool as you make him sound, then things should be fine." Cassidy nods. "Everyone at this school seems like family. They've all known each other for years and years. I wish I had friends like that." he says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"He is cool," Cait said as heat touched her cheeks. "Some haven't been here that long, but yes, we are family. You'll become a part of it in no time just like the other inmates." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sound_and_fury 2010-08-03 03:05 am UTC (link)
	"I like the sound of that, Cait. I hope I can learn to feel at home here." Cassidy says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2010-08-03 03:36 am UTC (link)
	"You will," Cait said with confidence. "You already have one friend here already." She gave him a smile. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sound_and_fury 2010-08-03 05:31 am UTC (link)
	"And a good friend she is." Cassidy says, returning the smile. "Want to have lunch together sometime?" he asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cait smiled and a little heat touched her cheeks. "Thanks." "I would like that. I can show you around Salem Center. Get you more familiar with the pace." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'm looking forward to it, especially if they've got good places for ice cream." he says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2010-08-04 02:05 am UTC (link)
	"Oh there are," Cait said with some amount of confidence. "There's a great little Mom and Pop place that makes their ice cream on site. It's so good." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"So, is there anything else I should know about Xavier's in the meantime?" he asks, looking at Cait's hair. Another idea comes to him just then, but he realizes he'll need some help. "How handy are you with a pair of scissors?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2010-08-05 02:49 am UTC (link)
	"Good question. I don't know what you've been told, but we all do chores. Some more than others because the teachers use them as a part of a punishment. My brother Rufus probably does the most. Logan's the hardest one to put anything past. And if food has a name on it, don't eat it. Everything else is fair game." "I'm okay with scissors. Why?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sound_and_fury 2010-08-05 02:54 am UTC (link)
	Cassidy nods at each bit of information Cait gives him, committing it to memory. "Got it." he says. "Oh, I might need some help with a haircut, but I need to get my hands on a box of hair dye. What do you think of brown?" he asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Oh. You don't want me doing that, but you may want to talk to Jenny. She can alter and color someone's hair just by touching it. She does everyone's hair." Though for some reason Jenny's powers had been unable to return Cait's hair to it's natural color. "I think it would look good, but I like it the way it is right now." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sound_and_fury 2010-08-05 03:16 am UTC (link)
	"Well, I should get it cut...just in case." he says. In case I have to run someday. "I'll try asking Jenny before I ask someone else." he says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2010-08-05 03:19 am UTC (link)
	"She loves doing people's hair so you shouldn't have a problem." Cait smiled. "If you want, I can introduce you to her if you haven't met her already." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sound_and_fury 2010-08-07 12:49 am UTC (link)
	"I'd like that a lot. Can we do it now?" he asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2010-08-07 12:53 am UTC (link)
	"Sure. Come on," she said and stood up. "She's probably hanging out with Sally somewhere." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cassidy follows Cait on his way to (hopefully) make new friends. (Reply to this)(Parent)
