[Today, network, you are getting a view of Molly's apartment. More specifically, the floor of Molly's apartment, where a circle of power has been drawn with chalk. In that circle, there are -- well, there were three tribbles. There's a few more, now. Anyway, the tribbles are happily meandering around the circle; Molly is not too far off, staring hard at the circle and obviously concentrating, murmuring things under he breath.

After a few moments, the tribbles are moving rather slower, almost sleepily -- and, more importantly, they aren't reproducing. There's a hint of frost on the walls of the circle. Molly blinks, then grins and turns to the camera.]

Well. There's one way of solving our tribble problem. I could try and do a really big one if anyone wants, but I'm not sure how long it takes for them to, uh, thaw out.

[The fact she had to pause and calculate that is a real worry on Ororo's radar.]

A month.

[That's half a burst of laughter from her, for the record.]

That's got to be hard on the reno costs.

[Eh. She'll get used to it, if Harry ever shows up. For her part, Molly is grinning rather cheekily.]


Yeah, but he's used to it by now. Too much magic on that place to let it go, really.

Any of that magic make it bombproof?

[A dubious comment from a dubious mutant.]

Not as much as you would think, really.

Ouch, then that really sucks for reno costs. Maybe you should just live in a bomb shelter.

[A little laugh.] Does underground count?

Only if it keeps him in.

[A beat.]

I bet it doesn't, huh.

[magicalpadawan]

Hell, no. Wouldn't keep me in, either.

Than mean you're sporting the same firepower?

["As Harry the Demolition Man" is what she means.]

[magicalpadawan]

Not in terms of explosions, no, but I'm working on that still. I'm good with mental stuff.

[storm_warning]

Mental stuff? [A beat.] You mean braincreeping?

[There's a long pause, then a firm nod.] If it's necessary.

Neat.

[It's not against the law in her world, just a bit weird to her. Her reaction reflects that, being of no particular care one way or another.]

Never figured a walking cherry bomb for a telepath.

I like to stand out.
