Not opening his eyes, and still laying his head back he reached up and waved off the question. "nah, Im fine, I just dont want to seem like a show off in front of everyone, so Ill just relax here till everyone gets better." He was obviously lieing, and the slight grin on his lips made it easy to figure out. Leanign his head up a bit and groaning at that movement he took another long drink. "Im the last thing on Nightcrawler's mind, he has got to see to the others. Probally wont even notice I moved." He said softly hoping Nightcrawler wouldnt hear him. "Soooo how are you holding up there? Those tentacles did a number on us huh?"

Aideen rolled her eyes and a grin played on her face. The ordeal that they both went through made her humor a bit more open then usual, but probably because she gained respect for him after the danger room session. It seemed to her that he was the one from the group who did the most work without acting like a little weakling. She nodded to his question. "That it did. It's going to be a challenge getting around for awhile though. I don't even want to think about how much of a mess I am," she said with a small laugh brushing the sand off her arms and refusing to wince from the pain in her stomach and ribs. "Are you okay? Those tentacles seemed to be taking the breath out of you," she asked him softly. Aideen frowned as she thought of her failed attempt to get him out. She was a bit upset with herself about that for she hated failure. "I'm sorry by the way. For failing to get you out of there," she said in a quiet voice.

He scoffed and waved his hand again. Still not even opening his eyes. "You look great to me. I love to wild natural beat up look. I think it works for me as well. Dont you?" Taking another drink of the water. "There is nothign to be sorry for. I got myself into those things, If not for me. You wouldnt have gotten hurt by them." He was ever the optimist and it still seemed that nothing could bring down his spirits. "We are a team. And in the end we were all there together. And ofcourse the most important thing. Our team got to the switch and pulled it. Well that and we all survived." He chuckled and winced once again. "Now you will have to put up with me more since we both made it."

Aideen chuckled under her breath at his comments and shook her head. Ever the flirt he was. Hell he was the only guy here why wouldn't he flirt with all the girls. Aideen nodded and conceded to his version of the events. She was too tired to argue otherwise. She took tiny sips of her water shuddering a bit as she felt the cold go down her hot insides. "Yes. It is good we got the switch. I'm glad Ripple got to it," she said softly as she lightly touched the part of her midsection that throbbed.
Aideen lifted her shirt a little bit and winced at how dark the bruises were. So much for riding her motorcycle. Without looking at Jumper she laugh quietly under her breath. "So just cause we're both alive, I must put up with you? I have no say in the matter?" she said in an amused playful voice as she set down her half finished water not able to handle anymore.

Smiling still as he let hsi body relax more. The aches becoming more noticable as the adrenaline was wearing out. "Yes, it was just in time. Its a good thing we were distracting all those tentacles with our bodies." Laughing softly at his own joke, following it up with a low groan." Has she come in yet? We have to thank her. And to answer your question. Thats a clear and simple. Yes., but dont worry, I have a tendacy to grow on people. And when Im not around you will be so bored and wondering where I am. And no, its hard enough to keep track of me, let alone try and stop me from being around." He seemed to be talking a lot, trying to keep his mind off the pain and the recent events.

Aideen watched Shadowkat and Nightcrawler continue passing out the water to the kids as she listened to Jumper talk. She was glad she wasn't expected to talk much with him for she was never a big talker. Aideen sighed, wanting to lie down but not in the mood to move because it would only cause more pain. "You seem quite sure of yourself. Positive that their wont be any objections then? Shouldn't get too ahead of yourself there. You might get surprised," she said softly with a raised eyebrow and a small smirk on her face.
Beast needed to get here. She was so very tired and wanted to be checked over so she could sleep. Now the only question that went through her mind was how the hell was she going to get to her room when she can't even walk a step without her knees buckling.

As Heather was dragged into the infirmary, she felt the gash in her head throb. It was uncomfortable and annoying. She winced at the slight pain the cut gave her and she looked around the chrome room.
Silver gadgets and computers were everywhere. Some with graphs and lines that she didn't understand and others with read outs and option pages for certain tasks. She ignored them and longed for a bed. As Shadowkat walked her near them, she nodded to her leader in thanks and walked to a free cot. She smiled as the comfort the soft bed provided, relaxed and calmed her body.
As Aideen and Jumper went on with there conversation, Heather couldn't help but laugh at the humorous event. Their flirting was endless and Jumper was really going at it. Surprisingly, Aideen responded. Since their encounter at the lake, Heather never thought Aideen would play along. She seemed to be a quite girl who didn't fancy talking much. No matter, it wasn't a huge deal anyway.
Heather thanked Shadowkat as she gave her a cup of water. For once she could drink it, instead of use it to fry giant scorpions or water loaded cannons. She couldn't believe that Ms. Frost spoke to her the way she did. She violated her mind. The once place she believed to be safe from everything and everyone. But now, she couldn't think for herself and be quite and respectful toward Ms. Frost without her reading her mind. Heather didn't like it, at all.

Returning to Ember's bedside Nightcrawler looked harshly at Jumper. Leaning over to him he spoke with a powerful tone, albeit softly, saying "If you disobey me again Kyle you vill not like zhe outcome I promise you. I need for you to do as you are told und stop your disrespectful und self destructive behavior. No more teleporting! Und enough vizh zhe flirting... do zhat on your own time. Besides I vould recomend not flirting vhen zhe poor girl is half dead und unable to truly participate." He winked at him and patted him on the leg.
Leaning back against the wall in-between the two of them he watched as Beast made his rounds.

Aideen gave Nightcrawler a small smile when he came over and laughed under her breath as Jumper was reprimanded for teleporting and for his flirting. She scooted back to lean against the wall on the bed next to Nightcrawler. She smiled up at him softly, grateful that he was nearby again. At this point, she was most comfortable with him. Aideen looked up at him tiredly and leaned her head against the wall. "When can I go to my room? And how will I get there?" she asked quietly. She didn't want to say it out loud for anyone to hear because it might make her have a weaker image than she already must have.

Lian came in after everyone else. She had walked slowly up to the infirmary, as if half in a dream. She hovered uncertainly by the door for a second before making her way to a chair in the corner, which she sat on and drew her knees up to her chest. She sat, staring into space, listening to snatches of people's conversations but not really taking anything in. She was thinking about her experience in the room, and about her powers. She didn't know why, but somehow, she didn't feel like taking part in the conversation. She was unwilling to draw attention to herself, and no one seemed to be taking a whole lot of notice of her, so she closed her eyes and tried to come to terms with everything that had happened.

As she leaned down on her bed, Heather looked into Lian's direction. "Hey Lian," she said feedbily. "Great job out there." She spoke softly whereas her strength was nearly plenished.

Lian looked over at Heather. 'I was useless' she said, 'I may as well not have been on the team at all' She smiled at Aqua. 'You were great though' She looked over her friend, she didn't look great. 'I hope you're ok'

Heather closed her eyes and groaned at Lian's modesty. Heather really hated people that wouldn't just say "thank you". They had to keep going around and around in circles saying that "they didn't deserve the credit" and blah, blah, blah.
She shook her head and licked her dry lips. "Lian, not to be mean, but shut up and just say 'thank you'". She smiled softly so Lian would know that she was joking.

'Thank you' Lian said. She didn't want Aqua to think that she wan't pleased that her friend had complimented her, it was just that she was being deliberately critical of herself. It was the only way to improve. Added to this, she was angry at herself for taking so much time just watching everyone else. She should have been more active. She didn't deserve to be in such a good team if she was going to be so useless in a fight. When she had said that Aqua was good though, she really meant it.

She giggled. "No problem, and thanks for your compliment." She closed her eyes again, trying to regain her strength. She was very happy that she finally knew how to control her powers. She finished her water, only craving more. She didn't want to bother anyone for it so she kept silent.
