Settling In (Open to X-ers)

[kinetic_assault]

Brianna sat on the south lawn in yoga pants and a tank top in the lotus position, counting her breaths as she cycled through several breathing exercises at the end of her meditations. She'd been back at Xavier's for a couple of days now and she was settling in all right. Mom and Dad seemed to be having a good time back home, though she knew her father would want to get out on the road again as soon as possible.

She felt herself return to alertness and opened her eyes as if seeing the world anew for the first time. Her meditations always renewed her spirt and her mind and she was ready to take on the new day.

Standing in one smooth motion, Brianna LeBeau began tehe first of several katas, taking up an open fighting stance and working through encountering her foe, engaging and finally, dispatching that foe before beginning the next kata.

"My eye does not twitch, Rose. Stop saying that." Brianna said, ignoring whatever it was that was in her eye. It was definitely not twitching, though.

"...Hockey isn't too difficult to have, is it? Sticks. Ice skates..."

"Ya know yer not foolin' anyone, right, Cajun?"

"My eye does not twitch." Brianna reaffirmed, as though saying so would make her eye stop doing whatever-it-was-that-wasn't-twitching.

"Anyway, hockey, like any other sport requires contracts for monies to be paid. Stuff like that. If the players feel they are being shafted, they can choose not to play. If the team owners feel slighted, they can lock the stadiums and refuse access."
