Coming home
She has a backpack on and a purse in her hand as she touches down on the ground outside of Xavier's School for Gifted Children.

It has been too long for Lyta since she's last been here. Far too long indeed. She's missed her home, her friends, her team.

She's already called ahead to make sure that her room is the same as she's left it. Dad's shipping in the rest of her luggage tomorrow. For now though, she has enough clothes to last.

Opening the door, Lyta steps in and grins.

"Hello!"

	Corey looked up from the latest newsletter of his favorite charity and comes to the door. "Lyta! Hi! How's it going?" He scrunches his newsletter in one hand and dusts off the other -- it only had a little dust on it -- to reach to shake hers. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	"Oh, no way," came another voice, not far off from the doorway. "Lyta!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lytaworthington 2009-12-05 04:05 am UTC (link)
	"Hello Corey!" she shakes his hand, smiling. "I'm fine...now that I'm back home. It took me quite awhile, but I finally got that business management degree." She smirks, "I'm surprised that you didn't burn the place down while I was gone." Her smirk widens. She knew that voice. "Come here and give me a hug, Rachel." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Congratulations. And nah, saving that for when the shortstack gets here." Corey insisted that he and Cait were just trying to prepare Uncle Scott for their baby brother. And then he'll get out of Rachel's way. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Not for lack of trying on his part," Rachel said, after she'd properly hugged Lyta. "You're finally done with school then?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lytaworthington 2009-12-06 02:56 am UTC (link)
	Lyta hugs Rachel, her wings brushing against the other girl slightly. Rachel's grown accustomed to her wings, anyway. Most of the X-Men had. The ones that had known Lyta for a long time, that is. "All finished," she says, smiling, "The X-Men now have one skilled businesswoman on their side." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"That's good. Because if someone else corners the slightly-hungry artist niche before I get a good chance, I'd really be bothered." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lytaworthington 2009-12-06 03:48 am UTC (link)
	She smirks. "Don't worry. That can be your shtick. I was never really much of an artist anyway." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	marvel_girl 2009-12-06 03:56 am UTC (link)
	Rachel made a face in Corey's direction. "You are not gonna starve, Corey." She turned her attention back to Lyta. "So you're going to beat the bad guys with math?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lytaworthington 2009-12-06 03:58 am UTC (link)
	Lyta chuckles. "That and with martial arts and telepathy. Though beating them with math might work best...they're not very bright for the most part." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sandcastlegod 2009-12-06 04:14 am UTC (link)
	" 'Course not. I'm too good to starve." "Just don't do the school's taxes. Mom needs something to keep Dad busy in the spring. But I support any potential buttkicking-by-the-numbers." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	marvel_girl 2009-12-06 04:41 am UTC (link)
	"Super-Villain One oh One," Rachel said, quoting her dad, "never underestimate how stupid the bad guys can be." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lytaworthington 2009-12-06 04:43 am UTC (link)
	"I won't...not that I wouldn't mind," she grins, "I'm certified now." Another laugh escapes her. "Of course. We have come across ones that seem to have at least half of a brain." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sandcastlegod 2009-12-06 05:00 am UTC (link)
	"And sometimes, no matter how ridiculously stupid they seem, they can still really mess people up." Corey actually frowns a little, thinking of events earlier this year. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yeah...downside of being a superhero." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	marvel_girl 2009-12-06 08:38 pm UTC (link)
	"Yeah. Especially if you're on a team starting in X." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lytaworthington 2009-12-07 12:15 am UTC (link)
	"Yeah...still, helps that you've got your teammates to help you through it all." (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Another familiar face. Everyone comes back to Xavier's. "I thought sure the gates were locked and everything." (Reply to this)(Thread)

	lytaworthington 2009-12-06 06:27 am UTC (link)
	"No such luck," she says, elbowing him playfully, "You can't get rid of me that easily. You'll just have to try better next time." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-12-06 08:06 pm UTC (link)
	He folded away from her elbow. "Hey, everybody else gets a hug and I get an elbow? How fair is that?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lytaworthington 2009-12-06 08:17 pm UTC (link)
	She flashes him a smirk. "It's a love tap." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Here's another familiar face for Lyta. "They let you back in? he said, with mock incredulity as he approached Lyta and Misha. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lytaworthington 2009-12-06 11:58 pm UTC (link)
	"They didn't do a good enough job of trying to keep me out, apparently," she says with a smirk. "Next time you boys need to try harder." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-12-07 12:07 am UTC (link)
	"When you can fly over the walls anyway? Much easier to wait for you land and walk into our trap!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cant_stop_this 2009-12-07 12:09 am UTC (link)
	"Our brilliant and horrible trap!" Joe added. He waited a beat. "Wait. Which trap was it again?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lytaworthington 2009-12-07 12:14 am UTC (link)
	"Clearly not a good one if you can't seem to remember it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-12-07 12:18 am UTC (link)
	"It was an awesome brilliant and horrible trap!" Misha assured her. He looked over at Joe and mimed speaking out of corner of his mouth. "Bub, you were in charge of the brilliant part." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lytaworthington 2009-12-07 12:25 am UTC (link)
	"He'd have to be," she says, smirking, "'Cause if you were in charge of the brilliant department...woudldn't be so hot." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cant_stop_this 2009-12-07 12:28 am UTC (link)
	"Hmmm," Joe made a face like he was concentrating. "Is this the plan where we take her out for beers and forget to bring her back? 'cause that's a good plan." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-12-07 12:29 am UTC (link)
	"That's the horrible part. Us and a night of beer and getting lost." He grinned. "Mostly us." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lytaworthington 2009-12-07 12:39 am UTC (link)
	"You'd never do such a thing. You'd feel guilty about leaving me and come back." She winks at them, "It has been a really long time since I kicked Misha's ass at pool..." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cant_stop_this 2009-12-07 12:43 am UTC (link)
	"Eventually," he corrected. "Maybe. Depends on how much we had to drink." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lytaworthington 2009-12-07 12:50 am UTC (link)
	"And leave me stranded to fly while intoxicated?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-12-07 01:14 am UTC (link)
	"We'd wait and make sure you're okay. Somebody has to record it for blackmail later." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cant_stop_this 2009-12-07 01:20 am UTC (link)
	"Yeah. I mean, we're diabolical. We're not evil or nothing. Most of the time." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lytaworthington 2009-12-07 01:38 am UTC (link)
	"There's that five percent of the time when you are." She grins, "You do realize this now means that we have to go out so I can drink you both under the table." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-12-07 01:50 am UTC (link)
	He stopped waiting for the hug and took it, careful of her wings. "You get a healing factor and forget to tell us about it? That'll cost you double." He smacked her cheek loudly and let her go. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cant_stop_this 2009-12-07 01:51 am UTC (link)
	"I'm pretty sure if there's one thing she can't do, it's outdrink us," Joe added. "...But I am willing to try." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lytaworthington 2009-12-07 02:07 am UTC (link)
	"If I told you then it wouldn't be a surprise," she said, returning the hug. She turned to Joe. "I have one thing to say to that, Joe-bring it on." (Reply to this)(Parent)
