Does a Battered Body Good.
After his arrival at Xavier's and a really fun workout with rose Logan, Esteban was sitting in the kitchen cheerfully covered in bruises, making a peanut butter and banana sandwich and pouring a tall cold glass of milk.

	"Yes, Sir," he says, nodding. "Esteban. Good to meet you Mr. Logan." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Logan nodded, tearing off a couple of towels to wipe his hands and mop the sweat off his face. "Nice t' meet you. Got a call from yer uncle. He says you need trainin' discipline." He half smiled. "You got a problem in a fight they want you to work on?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Esteban bristles just a tiny bit as he mutters. "Could maybe stand to work on blocking a little." Says the boy with his face and shoulders covered in bruises. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Bristling kids didn't mean much to Logan. He could smell the resentment on Esteban. Shatterstar said Esteban had it in him to be great. Logan would work with that.

"Kid, the second you don't think you got somethin' left to learn, you're dead in a fight. Gettin' mad about it don't help." Logan got to his feet and tossed the towels toward a trash barrel. "Who was helpin' you by leavin' marks? Fresh ones, too."

	"...Yessir," he conceded. "Rose. We were just having some fun. I held my own." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Oh yeah? If she was serious, you'd be bleedin'. She bruised up too?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Not so much. Ruined her socks, though; I had my knives." Best not to mention that he might have gotten off easy due to accidentally hurting Rose's feelings. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Logan chuckled. "You'll do okay. We'll get you set up for some eval bouts in the Danger Room. Soon as I know what your skill levels are, we'll go from there. Shatterstar work on your sword skills?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yessir. The knives are an easier carry, though, so I've been leaning a little more that way in practice." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It's a skill. No skill ever goes to waste. He wants you to have it, so you'll get it. Summers an' the others'll work on your powers with you. I think every kid needs to know how to fight without their powers. Can't shut off muscle memory like a collar can your powers. Understand?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yessir. I prefer it that way." Only a sissy would go around using EMP bursts, potentially detrimentally to civilians and his own guys, because he couldn't cut it in a fight by himself. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Glad to hear it. Couple other things. My beer is off limits. Don't start a fight in the dorms. All fights end with me in the Danger Room or Summers in his office an' he'll talk you to death." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	badforbusiness 2011-08-07 08:02 pm UTC (link)
	Esteban nods. "Understood." And at the last part, "...Definitely don't want that, Sir." Uncle Julio had always spoken of Cyclops with infinite gratitude and a clear desire to never have to talk one-on-one with the man again. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Good, I hate repeatin' myself." Logan put the oil pan by the door to take on his next run into the village. The garage there would send it to a recycling center. (Reply to this)(Parent)
