Elisabeth's status

[x-avier.livejournal.com]

Elisabeth has been retrieved safely, and is resting in the medlab. She will likely be in a fragile state for some time, but she is, I am happy to report, well and safe.

It would seem that for the past few months, Elisabeth has been under the control of a psychic entity who called herself "Kwannon," whose presence may, I think, confidently be attributed to some aftereffect--whether intentional or accidental, we may never know--of her recent surgery. The full tale of Kwannon's deeds during the masquerade . . . is too much to relate just now; it is my great shame that I did not discover the ruse sooner. Everything "Elisabeth" has done since late January, in fact, and possibly for some time before, should instead be attributed to her tormentor, who Elisabeth fought to the very limit of her will.

You may all, however, rest confident that Kwannon is no longer a threat; she has been caged until Elisabeth regains her strength and we may seek more permanent solutions. Scott, may I rely on you to spread the news to the students tomorrow? I'm afraid I may sleep rather late.

Lastly, Emma, we need to speak as soon as possible; it would seem that Kwannon enlisted Manuel's aid, on at least one occasion, to keep Elisabeth under control. I suspect, given the nature of his powers, that his . . . willingness . . . was coerced; she would not have been a healthy template for him to mirror, to say the very least. I would like to discuss strategies for training him out of that tendency, if it can be done.

Amanda

[x-mactaggart.livejournal.com]

There was an incident involving Amanda Tuesday evening. She's currently sedated and we're running shifts keeping an eye on her. Pete was informed as soon as she was brought down to the MedLab and to our attention.

I know she's been struggling with an addiction to the magic that fuels her power and I thought that the intervention I did had been enough. Apparently, it wasn't.

Also.

From some of the things I have been able to get out of her, there was, or still is, a type of empathic link between her and Manuel. I believe one of the resident telepaths may want to check this out.

I'm fuzzy on the -why-, Amanda's been sleeping pretty much the entire time (either of her own choice or via sedative), so I don't have all the answers.

But I'll be down here watching over her if anyone does have any questions.
