We've traded members between the New Mutants and Hellions so often, we practically already have. If the Hellions are even still together after Manuel's .. stunts. But you never really bought into his delusions. James is usually around, if nothing else.

@AUBURNVISIONS ⠀
I've done just as much plenty of times. I'm sure even Emma taught you way back when an effective team is as much a balance of skill as it is comradery. But my bias would always lead me back to my New Mutants. As much as I'd love to have everyone.

“ It is. Unless you'd prefer something different. Maybe a high-five. ”
Brief snicker, keeping eyes shut. Going to milk those two minutes. She's cold ⸻ literally and figuratively ⸻ but it's a comfort to a tired soul.
“ Or do you mind my being here that much.ᐣ ”
⠀
“Hm..Is that your way of greeting me?”
Hela remained with her legs crossed, arms interlocked with one another. Her frozen, stilled gaze kept on the distance ahead.

Being able to have a moment with Illyana seemed to release the burdens of the weights the world put on them, though. Lids shut, weak smile; a vulnerability displayed to only rare few.
“ Wouldn't want to be a hypocrite, would I.ᐣ But not before I get more time with you. ”

“ Being 𝓸𝘭𝘥-𝘦𝘳 since our early years doesn't mean you get to call me a relic just yet. ”
Jocundity honeying her tongue to cut through the otherwise dour bit of atmosphere that had set in, knowing how easily either of them could sink to the depths of those waters.

'felt that way since i was six.'
the blonde didn't pull away instead leaning in for more contact. eager for dani's gentle touch. her forehead now resting firmly against her former leader.
'we are both relics of a war that has no end in sight.'
a confession of fatigue-

Leg softly brushing against one of Xuân's thighs as easing back, reaching out a hand to help her sit up next to her.
“ Now, as much as I 𝓬𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 also stare into your beautiful eyes, surrounded by your gorgeous face, and sexy hair. You should eat with me, first. ”

“ I'm likely one of the only people that could. Not that I'd prefer using any of my friends as a semi-literal meal ticket. But could is certainly a different question than would. ”
Leaning down from her roost, kissing as firm as hunch forward would allow.
➷
“ woah, woah… i didn’t say that. ” she let herself smirk as she watched the other, then followed after her.
“ we could… if we can find the time. this, though… this definitely works too. ” she found her focus falling on dani’s features, lingering for a moment longer before

Forearms settle loose against @nosnowfIakes's shoulders, hands cupping to neck as thumb brushes along breadth of a cheek. Weary little huff of a laugh slips through tepid smile, easing foreheads together.
“ I think I'm far too tired for my age, Yana. ”
⠀
⠀
Slinking arms around @HELHEIMRUNES, turning head to rest cheek against a shoulder. Weight of tired eye lids faltering shut as if they hadn't been allowed closed in too long. A beat.
“ If you shove me away in the next two minutes, I'm putting an arrow through your jaw. ”

Is there often so much difference between the two, when it comes to most of living in the world.ᐣ
But, she's merely loosing some bolts in the nearby tree bark. Maybe if she ever has to hunt one of the talking sort that hangs about in space.

Too well, really. I'm sure you're discovering some very profound things in that head of yours. Just don't stay buried in it too long. I think people prefer you actually being here.
A woman after my heart. Sugar, cream.ᐣ
