Imagine my surprise...

...or complete lack of it when I hear that some folks are still deciding to take matters into their own hands around here. Rumor has it that everyone's favorite psycho killer "self-defense" instructor went off and threatened a student's life. Not just any student, the -ONE- kid here with no possible way to even stand up for himself. Takes a lot of balls, man.

Rest assured, if there's an inkling of truth to this, you're fucking paste, Logan.

I just saw Marie-Ange's post about the incident and, yes, I'd like to know if there's truth in that. I don't like to think Marie-Ange is lieing...

On the other hand, threatening a student is a far worse situation.

Imagine my surprise that you'd take this to the staff journal over the comment of a student who doesn't like Logan instead of asking him or Doug yourself, Cain. I don't have any illusions about Logan, trust me, but I know he wouldn't threaten Doug. Doug's simply not worth it to him and it wouldn't happen this long after the fact. Why don't you go ask Doug about this, since he's not speaking to me, and find out what happened before you go making things worse?

Believe me, I plan to. The guy screws a former student, it brings his ethics into question. He damn near kills another teacher in full view of the kids, it brings his judgement into question. Hearing that he's tried to kill a defenseless sixteen year old boy who couldn't defend himself from a wet kleenex - that brings his goddamn humanity into question. And pardon me if I step on any sensitivities, but the fucking commandos didn't even do that.

Hell, you've got enough damn mindreaders here. Why doesn't one of you just reach into the kids' heads and find out what went on? With the psychotic lunatic and with the whole potion blowup?

I believe, if I have things correctly, that Professor Xavier did that already. On both counts, on Monday.

As the former student in question, I can tell you that you haven't got the first clue what you're talking about in terms of his ethics and I'm not about to explain myself to you. Professor Xavier is aware of the relationship and no censure has been handed down. If I recall the story right, it was Ms. Braddock who ran Logan through, not the other way around. And I cannot imagine him trying to hurt Doug that way.

I just received an e-mail from Marie-Ange. This is what she saw:

He was in here when I got back and Doug wasn't where I left him, he was against the wall. I don't remember what he said, but it was scary.

So, I'm thinking no claws (she'd remember -that-), just sheer intimadation and shoving around. Which isn't right but it's not threatening to kill him (unless he said something along those lines and Marie-Ange didn't hear it...she apparently tackled Doug out of the way).

Logan? A little...help, please?

*thinks* Marie-Ange mentioned protecting Doug now with her powers...but I'm worried, the last I checked her powers couldn't do anything on a level to protect someone...

If that was her meeting Ramsey out on the back lawn, I disagree. Girl made a damn fortress out of thin air.

[x-mactaggart.livejournal.com]

She...huh?

Bloody hell, she wasn't able to do that...well, yesterday.

*speechless*

Emotional distress can do wonders for one's grasp of their powers.

Yes, so I'm seeing.

*headache* What a day.

Oh for fuck's sake.

I pushed him into the wall and when I backed off he stayed there. She walked in when he was trying to get me to hit him. I didn't. Marko's right, he can't fight back. The kid's not worth the effort.

I told him to stay away from Marie, that's all. And Colbert didn't use her powers on me, so I don't know what she's talking about.

Spreading rumors is not condoned, especially among the staff, Cain.

If you hear one, then ask the parties involved, bluntly, since that is your style. In person would likely be best, but if you can't control yourself, perhaps an email message to the people involved would work.

Your style's to let gangbanging thugs bring guns into the mansion, Summers. Don't presume to give me lectures on what you think's condoned in my own damn house, boy.

Re:

I did not let gangbanging thugs bring guns into the mansion.

As for the rest...it's not worth responding to. You won't listen. I don't know why I even tried.

Re: A suggestion.

[x-juggernaut.livejournal.com]

You didn't have a choice in the matter. You fucked off and split for a week, and so the choice was taken out of your hands. When you told one student who'd already assaulted one student due to being so fucked in the head he couldn't control himself - you tell that kid that it's okay for him to teach his peers about how to fire guns and 'share skills' about how to defend themselves?

I ain't having my house turned into a boot camp, and I'll be damned if some wet-behind-the-ears amateur is going to try and tell me differently.

You want to protect these kids? Who's the one who pushed the class wimp into a wall?

That visor really does limit your field of vision, don't it?

Re: A suggestion.

[x-cyclops.livejournal.com]

Angelo really must have not heard what I said, or you're just twisting his words to suit your purpose.

I will go speak with him on the matter, however. There were a few conditons which escaped his notice, or yours.

Your house is not this school, and vice versa. Deal with it.

And you really should decide Cain. Are you more upset with me when I am here, or when I am not? Or is it equal amounts?

Re: A suggestion.

There's only one condition that needs to be made - no guns. You've got enough kids here with built-in killing ability. How many more do you want to add?

And I don't give a damn about word games - I personally don't care if what you teach these kids gets them killed outside these walls, or once they leave here and join up with Magneto, or go pretend to be soldiers with your little X-Men.

But Chuck promised me one thing, and that's more important than whatever you think you're doing here. It's the same thing you've promised these kids - that these walls provide a place of safety. I could give less than a damn about your "school", Summers. What I do give a damn about is the peace and quiet I'm due. I've come to terms with the fact that I ain't getting any quiet while these kids are here. Fine. They'll grow up, graduate, and you all can go fly around in your little toy jet.

But I will be damned if this place gets turned into a ghetto where the folks who are supposed to be in charge throw students into walls to defend someone who's more than capable of speaking for herself - or think that pulling a gun on someone just because you feel scared is okay - or whose authority figures bail whenever times get tough.

For the record, Summers - I ain't "upset" with you. I just plain don't like you. Can't see much use for you, and you ain't doing much good for anything besides being Chuck's little figurehead since I've been here. near as I can figure, your purpose here is to go on vacation and get your car stolen.
