What do you do when you lose that person? Not your parents, or a significant other, although they might be that person, too. I mean the person that was always there, in whatever capacity you needed. You just looked over your shoulder, made a call, lit a signal, whatever and they were there for you. They never let you down - even when you sometimes let them down.

What do you do when that's gone? Or worse... it's going to be.

Do you just tell yourself to suck it up, let it go and enjoy what you still have? Or do you try and figure out a way to prevent it - stop it.

Is everyone back to normal? Or as normal as we get?

Kitty? Movie?

I'm sorry Rachel. I can stay somewhere else for a while if you'd like. I'm sorry...

[starchilde_lost]

NO! I don't want you to go. I can't... I don't want to let you go, Kitty. You're my best friend, I'm not ready to loose you yet.

I just didn't realize how bad that would hurt until you were... gone.

I know...it's so much more real now isn't it? Before it was just oh it's going to happen, that's upsetting but it's a ways away. But it wasn't. It was days away. Being here is confusing and painful. I know it's painful for you too. I'm sorry...I'm sorry I left and went home...

[starchilde_lost]

So'm I.

So where does this leave us? I mean, if you really want to go...

private;

[phasedcat.livejournal.com]

No, I don't. We only have the now Rachel and we should take it and take full advantage of it. I don't want to cause you pain but I don't want to not be around you and not be close to you. You're my best friend and I just can't do that not when you're here and I'm here.

[starchilde_lost]

Me, neither.

So, back to the original question... movie?

private;

Old Sci-Fi movies are always good for laughing and mocking.

[starchilde_lost]

Hmmmm. Billy and I had a mini Godzilla-thon not too long ago, how about... radioactive ants and bunnies?

private;

[phasedcat.livejournal.com]

That sounds awesome. Especially the bunnies, are they radioactive too?

private;

[starchilde_lost]

Actually... they're mutants. Big-ass crazy mutant bunnies.

private;

[phasedcat.livejournal.com]

Now that's just insulting. Actually come to think of it have we ever come across a mutant with the power to turn into a bunny?

private;

[starchilde_lost]

Nope, that would be a big no. I haven't seen any B-Men.

...that sounded better in my head.

private;

[phasedcat.livejournal.com]

That could either be bunny-men or just mean that their the version of the X-Men from an alternate reality where life is like a B-rated movie.

I bet it did.

Re: private;

I'm half-surprised we didn't end up there at some point.

Wouldn't put it past the City to do that one day. And if it does. I blame you.

private;

[starchilde_lost]

Stop it, we've already had one B-Movie day. We don't need another.

Come to think of it can't that woman from Alpha Flight Snowbird change into a bunny? Or maybe it's just an owl.

private;

[starchilde_lost]

I don't remember bunnies.

Somebody needs a bunny superpower.
