[Say hello to Emma Frost, an intimidatingly beautiful but apparently normal human woman who is not especially pleased to be on a giant turtle and drafted into some kind of metaphysical war. She's got it dialed down to an aura of vague irritation, though, and she leans back in the large desk chair that came with her Fire Sector suite. The deep brown of the leather sets off her pale coloration and low-cut white X-Men uniform to excellent effect, and if you think she didn't plan that, you haven't met Emma.]

Please tell me there's a half-decent salon somewhere on this planet.

[If she has to do her own roots she's switching to diamond form until the problem is resolved, see if she doesn't.

Yes, yes, Malicant, a murdered emperor, giant turtles all but extinct, a world on the verge of destruction...but none of those are the sort of thing one ought to ask stupid questions about in public, now are they?]

[This is where the comical thought of running and hugging Emma plays in Kurt's head. Comical because he wouldn't do it. And because it's Emma. He's not stupid. But he's smiling and looking so relieved, another adult!]

'Priorities' just doesn't seem like the right thing to say. Can't answer the question, I tend to just do it myself when it gets ridiculous.

[Okay, being on a giant turtle aside, he is incredibly happy to see her.]

[From him, she'd accept a hug.]

My priorities are in perfect order, Kurt.

[She's pleased to see him, too. There aren't many people in the world she actually likes, but Kurt makes the list.]

[He would give the best hugs. Just sayin'.]

Well, I never said anything about them being wrong, right? [He's smiling because he wouldn't have expected anything else.]

Ah, Emma, it's so good to see you! If you ignore the fact you've just been brought onto a giant turtle.

It's hardly that unusual.

[Kurt you were on Excalibur during the transdimensional magic train years.]

The turtle is new.

[And during it he had his friends, well some of them and the new ones he made. And a dragon powered train, so you know...at least they kept hopping universes. Because a dragon powered train is totally normal. But a turtle isn't.]

Either way, it still stands. Will we play the 'which point in time are you from' dance?

[Krakoa the Living Island, Kurt. Granted, neither of them were on the team at that point, but this kind of thing is hardly outside the X-Men's purview.]

We just cleaned up that little Skrull problem.

[Slightly smug, since the X-Men handled it so much better than the rest of the world.]

[Krokoa is totally normal though, right? Okay, there's a point to what you're meaning so he'll take it. At the mention of the Skrull problem, he looks a little surprised, though he shouldn't have been. He was just expecting everyone to be further along in time than he was. He nods a little.]

So there's some time differences. Don't know what I expected really.

Am I the furthest back, then? How disappointing.

[As though it's some kind of race she's losing.]

[fuzzyelf]

From what I can tell, sorry to say you're losing this one. Looks like the adults are trailing behind the kids in this.

[myownbestfriend]

Now, Kurt, we want our students to surpass us.

video

[fuzzyelf]

Oh. That'll be where I've been going wrong. See, I thought we were just passing on knowledge, but not all the best stuff so we were still seen as the best of the best.

It makes more sense now.

Darling, they have a long way to go before we're in any danger.

[The X-Men are so fabulous, okay.

Well, the ones Emma likes, anyway.]
