Stellar Explosion

[realstarpower]

Anyone who walked past the laboratory at Pier 4 would notice the tell-tale signs of Ryan doing something that he wasn't supposed to be doing behind closed doors. The first tell was the blaring sound of a classic Alison Blaire CD blasting out into the hallway. The second tell was the accompaniment of sparkling purple light casting its light onto the floor outside of the lab. The third tell was the sound of Ryan loudly singing along to Alison Blaire's voice. The fourth tell was the sound of a tiny explosion, followed by a shriek of terror.

That was Ryan causing something to explode in the name of science.

Oops.

"Well, that's what you said earlier."

Memory like a goldfish, his brother.

He snorted at the Emma Frost line. Pretty sure some people liked her, if for no other reason than just to look at her. He appreciated the effort, though. "I know. I like who I am, for the most part. I do. It just hits me sometimes that nobody's ever gonna look at me like they do you or Remi or Griffin, even."

"..." He smiled, embarrassed. "Right. But, I mean, look. Everyone's got their types. There's a few people out there who totally dig you. You just, you know, haven't met them yet, Jacob."

People who dig road rash, maybe. Jacob shook his head and smirked a little. Ah well. "You know you'd better have all this cleaned up before Remi or one of the egg-heads sees it, right?"

"This is why we need a HERBIE," Ryan said. "Unless we actually have an HERBIE and no one's told me?"

"Nope, sorry dude. You're on your own here." Jacob chuckled and shook his head. "If you're really nice, and I mean really nice to me, I might help you."
