Cartoons!!

[Lily]

Not long after Karma left Lily fell asleep, and she slept soundly through the night into the morning. The sun shone on her face and woke her up. She sat up and stretched with a little yawn and looked over at Jenny. It was the normal time she would be up at, and she hopped out of bed and landed right next to Jenny's.

Poking her shoulder lightly until she woke up, Lily grinned. "Mornining! Wanna watch tv?" she asked, giggling. "C'mon grab Roger and I'll race ya! And I'll be fair and fly slow, proooomise," she offered, waiting for Jenny to get up. When she did, Lily hovered and kept her promise, flying slower than she would have. With that, she headed to the rec room.

She was pretty sure it was a tie, but she didn't know for sure. Either way, it was a fun way to start off the morning. She flew above the couch and dropped herself onto it, bouncing slightly. Reaching for the remote she automatically flipped to a channel where there were the daily morning cartoons she'd always watch at home. "You like the Nickelodeon stuffs in the morning? Or wanna watch Disney? Either is good for me," she said to Jenny once she caught up.

[Jenny]

Jenny's large blue eyes opened to see Lily's head of bubble gum pink hair. "Good morning! Wow I was real tired last night. On the count that when Karma left we were still giggling," she said smiling and sat up to rub the sleep out of her eyes. Jenny yawned a bit and stretched her arms over her head. Her eyes went wide at the prospect of TV which only meant... "Cartoons! YEA! I loves cartoons!" she cried and scrambled out of bed, grabbing Roger's paw and she scrambled after Lily. Jenny's small feet padded against the hallway, her making probably more noise than she meant to.

Jenny bounced on the couch with Roger next to Lily with a big grin on her face. "Let's watch Disney! 101 Dalmations is supposed to be on," she said and grabbed the remote to switch the TV to the Disney Channel. Sure enough. The movie was about to start. "Oh I'll grab us some cereal! And the we cans watch the movie and eats breakafast!" Jenny said loudly giggling with glee. She ran into the kitchen and waved to Rogue lady and Colossus as she grabbed two bowls and two spoons from the drawers. All by herself she scrambled onto a stool to reach the counter and grabbed a box of Lucky Charms and got some milk from the fridge.

With an armful of food and stuff to eat food with, Jenny walked back to the Rec Room and balanced the jug of milk with the other stuff and placed it on the coffee table. "Look Lily I gots Lucky Charms! Karma bought 'em for me on the count that they're my favorite! But you can have some!" she said and handed Lily a bowl. Jenny took her own and poured some cereal and milk in it, sitting in front of the TV just as the movie started. "Look! It's a starting!" Jenny squealed as she grabbed Roger to sit in front of the TV and watch.

"Who's your favorite Doggy? I love Patches and the Kitty Sergent Tibbs. Oh and Captain, the horsey!" Jenny squealed as she watched the TV wide eyed as the movie began, bobbing her head to the song and eating her cereal.

[Lily]

Lily watched the tv with a big grin on her face as Jenny changed the channel. "101 Dalmatians?! Yay! I haven't watcheded that movie in a while cause my big sister wouldn't watch it with me," she explained. She looked on as Jenny quickly ran off for some cereal while the opening credits went on the screen. Lily gasped when she saw Lucky Charms and giggled happily. "That's my favorite too! I like the extra chocolatey ones bestest. Yay!" she cheered when Jenny said she could have some.

She took the bowl and poured herself some cereal after her friend, and eyed it carefully so that she could get as many marshmallows as she could. She loved the marshmallows the best and she would always save them for last. Lily poured in some milk and put them down on the floor where they couldn't be knocked over. Her mom always taught her to try to never make a mess with food. Picking out the cereal part first with her spoon she munched while Jenny cheered for her favorite characters.

"Um um um I likes Pongo and Lucky and Patches and oh Perdita too!" she listed off, looking thoughtful while taking another bite of cereal. She swayed slightly in tune to the song while Jenny bobbed her head. "Mmmmmm," she mumbled happily, "Yay for Lucky Charms and 101 Dalmatians!" she said before the only noises she made were occasional giggles and quiet munching.

[Jenny]

Jenny munched on her cereal happily and watching the movie with pure delight in her eyes. "Pongo is my dog Albert's favorite. We used to watch him at all the time at-" Jenny was cut off when she heard thumping and banging coming down the stairs. "What's that?" she asked with wide eyes before she heard a boy scream. Jenny gave an exaggerated sigh and looked at Lily pointedly. "Boys are icky and dumb," she said knowingly and turned back to the movie.

Jenny munched on her cereal and wondered when everyone would be back. She missed the beautiful Ms. Frost and Mr. Blue Man. That's what she called him cause he was the coolest and so nice. She wanted to show him her blue blankey that was almost the same color as him.

"Cruella is EVIL! I don't like her," Jenny commented and ate her cereal, entranced by the movie.

[Torri]

Torri half thudded down the stairs with a small high pitched yawn as she stretched her arms around to her side. Last night some wierd alarm had made her worried that there was another attack and even when it stopped she couldn't sleep well due to being dragged under by nightmares of the brotherhood again. She had only just gotten over the ordeal but it seemed like she would need more time to get used to this school still.

Making her way toward the Rec room, she heard the high pitched giggles and squeals of Jenny and the little fairy girl. She smiled lazily as - clad still in her make shift pajamas of a band shirt and sweat pants - she walked through the door. She shook her head and laughed to herself as she saw the two little girls sitting with their breakfast watching a film. It was only when she noticed the film and heard Jenny cry out about Cruella did Shimmer give a proper laugh, they where so cute those two.

"M'rnin'..." She said sleepily, walking toward one of the free couches and lazyly slumping down onto one and stretching her legs out. It was good this school had long enouch couches to aid her tired legs. Although she wasn't too pleased at having squished ears when she slipped her head of the arm of the couch and ended with it pressed against it."F'lm good?" She asked through a yawn while stretching again. It felt good to stretch. The pink image smiled sleepily to herself as she herself started watching the kiddie film, she was still a kid herself after all.

[Lily]

Lily munched while Jenny talked, only to be interrupted by a noise outside the rec room. She quickly looked around to see an older boy on some sort of sled go by. She giggled at it and nodded in agreement. "Yep. They are. But funny! They fall over more and are silly," she added and turned away, her little wings slowly fluttering absentmindedly. "Cruella is icky and creepy," she said, nodding again in agreement, planting her eyes back on the movie.

She giggled when funny parts came on, and looked away when she heard someone come in. It was the girl she remembered Karma had said was Shimmer. "Hallo Shmimer," Lily greeted with a big grin, stuffing her mouth with another bite of cereal. Breakfast was getting to her favorite part, where all that was left were floating marshmallows and they all stuck together so it was real easy to get them all in one bite. She'd let Jenny answer about how the movie was. Of course it was good, but she wanted to pile all her marshmallows on her spoon at once and her face started to contort with effort as one always kept falling off.

[Ripple]

The night was pretty rough for everyone. Lian missed out on everything unfortunately but she didn't really care. After the cafeteria meeting about the kids and teachers that were in Limbo, she just went straight to bed. It was scary that the two headmasters, people she trusted so much, were gone and possibly going to die. Her friend Heather had already gone with them to the lab so she didn't really have anyone to talk to. Sleep was the best answer.

The next morning, Lian felt hungry. She wanted to get some breakfast but it was too much of a chore. Instead she headed to the recreation room and saw two little girls with Shimmer, a familiar face. "Hey Tori," she said softly with yawn. She then looked to the two little girls and smiled. "Hey guys, what are you watching?"

[Hotwire]

Glaring at Shade while she left the kitchen, Ariel headed to the rec room where the kids were like Karma asked. A small group was already to form there and she saw the two adorable little girls that had been scared off, and two junior students. Leaning against the doorway for a second she smiled and greeted them. "Morning guys," she said, walking in and sitting on a chair near the little girls.

She smiled again and looked at them. "You two like 101 Dalmatians? I do too. Perdy's my favorite," she told them, sitting back and looking at the four younger mutants in the room. At least they knew how to behave; she wondered who was responsible for the other messes in the kitchen that wasn't Kelly's doing.

[Ripple]

Lian was definitely enjoying herself. 101 Dalmatians was one of her favorite Disney movies of all time and being a kid at heart was a virtue to her. Seeing the little girls enjoying themselves made her feel happy inside and made her remember how great friendship was. Speaking of that, she then wondered if Heather was OK since she hadn't seen her since the day before.

A familiar girl walked into the rec room whom Lian recognized from the cafeteria meeting. She smiled and waved her hand to the pretty Corsair. "Hey I'm Lian, I saw you in the cafeteria during the meeting and stuff," she reached her hand over to the girl in order to shake it.

[Jenny]

"Shh, shhh, guys! This is the good part!" Jenny said shushing everyone as 'the barking chain' was started and all the dogs were trying to get in contact to find the lost puppies. She had set her greeting to everyone in a short 'hi' and went back to watching the movie. This was Jenny's favorite movie, next to Beauty and the Beast and Aladdin.

Hey, everyone in here looks like they're from a Disney movie! Theres that girl that looks like Esmeralda, though now that I thinks abouts its, she can be Belle too. And Ariel can be Pocahontas, on the count that she looks just like her. That Indian boy can me Kocoum, that big guy that my mouse friends would be ascared of could be Hercules, and that pretty red head girl that sat next to me can be Ariel! Wow we can make a Disney movie with everyone here! Jenny thought as she watched the movie, entertaining her thoughts.

Karma can be Mulan! She's so pretty and Dazzler can be Aurora! Miss Frost... hmmm she beaoootiful. Cinderella of course, the prettiest of princesses. I would be Snow White, and Lily would be Tinkerbell. Mr. Summers... hmm who would he be? He needs a good one.... I have to think about that on the count that I can't leave anyone out. Hmmm.... Jenny thought hard as she watched Sergent Tibbs wake up the Colonel.

[Lily]

Finally, after a couple of minutes, Lily was able to get all of the little different fun marshmallows onto her small spoon. She had to pile some on top of the other, but that was okay with her. Licking the milk off her fingertips she saw as more people came in, a black haired girl and that older girl she and Jenny saw last night who was really nice. Is it just me or does everyone like Disney movies? COOL! she thought, giggling to herself when Jenny shushed everyone.

With that she stuffed all the marshmallows into her mouth and chewed, her cheeks puffed out from how many there were. When she could finally swallow it all, she did and let out a little sigh of content. Marshmallows are gooood. Lily snickered as Jenny watched the movie so intently; she had been slightly distracted, what with the people coming in and her marshmallows of course. Now that her cereal was all done, she picked up her bowl and flitted off to the side so she wouldn't knock it over or anything. She flitted back and plopped down on the couch near the oldest girl.

A thought occurred to her and she moved to Jenny after the 'barking chain' ended. Poking her in the shoulder she whispered, "We should watch another one after this!" Giving her a big grin, she flitted back and plopped down, crossing her legs Indian style and watched the movie with big eyes.

[Hotwire]

Looking to the younger Asian girl, Ariel smiled warmly and shook her hand. "I'm Ariel. Pleased to meet you, Lian," she answered in her light Latina accent. She sat back with an amused smile at the two little ones, and then looked to Lian. "Come sit down," she whispered, patting the arm of an empty chair next to her. There was plenty of seating around the tv; Emma and Cyclops were smart to think ahead and assume that large groups of people would crowd around the nice flat screen. It was a nice way to bring them together; Ariel swore she recalled even the Corsair and Hellion boys gathering to watch a big football game. That's probably the only time they're ever really 'civil' towards one another..except Mase and Norrison of course. I remember Stoney and Kelly had to sit in between them, and Shade was just there. Stoney kept Norrison calm enough and Kelly made beer out of the remote for Mason to keep him quiet. He shouldn't have; I heard them all whining about having to get up to change the channel from the cafeteria, she remembered with a smirk while she looked back to the television while the movie continued on.

[Torri]

Still basically asleep and feling transfixed abnormally by the screen and the classic Disney film, Torris reactions where next to non existant. The entrance of Ripple and Hotwire were simple blurs in the shapeshifters mind as she dozed silently on the couch; her legs taking up the entire space of the cushioned seats while she lay her sugar pink head against her arms in a make shift pillowing position. "You know what i love about this film? Even though all the dogs look different, you know they're still dogs. They don't get hated cause they have different spots to everyone else, or are a different size or colour. I wish i was like them ye know?" She mumbled against her arm, yawning to herself as rolled over and eyed the cereal that the little girls where munching.

"Jenny, what stuff's that? Can i have some?" She asked, scratching the back of her ear quickly and raising herself onto one arm to look blearily at the people in the room. Her face instantly coming up in a slow blush at the new older girl sitting with Ripple. It was nice someone spent time with the younger kids; but shimmer remembered the girl had sat next to that very loud and rude boy last night. The one who made such vulgar comments to the other girls sitting around the table and even to the pretty Dazzler. Not one to be known for sociability, Torri huddled her long legs up and wrapped her arms around them to keep place, shivering slightly at the cold air around her. She woul remember to bring a blanket next time.

"OH! I love this part!" The bright pink Acolyte exclaimd to herself with a grin as she spied the part where Jasper and Horace got outsmarted by those clever puppies and Sergent Tibbs inside the 'ol' De'vil place'.

[Ripple]

Lian smiled more as Ariel embraced her hand shake. With a nod, Lian was happy to make a new acquaintance. She continued to watch the movie and laughed at how everyone in the room was enjoying the cartoon. The best thing about Disney is that although his movies are rated G or PG, they are meant for the entire family and all ages. No one could grow tired of Disney.

Ariel's invitation to sit closer to her made Lian happy. Ariel seemed cool and down to earth just like Lian was. She really wanted a cigarette but would have one later. The bitter cold was too much to bare and that was what the window of her dorm room was for. Smirking at the sly thought, she then heard very little of what Torri had said. She seemed lost in her thoughts and tired. But nonetheless she was speaking and it must have been something worth listening. Shrugging it off, Lian turned to Ariel and whispered to her. "What is it like being in 'college' sort-of?" She was curious about the older teams and what they were all about. Lian definitely wanted to control her powers better and be as powerful as she could possibly be.

[Jenny]

Jenny grinned at Lily and nodded vigorously. "Yeah! We gots a bunch of Disney movies on DDD! On the count that everyone loves Disney!" she said forgetting not for the first time that they were called 'DVDs' and not 'DDDs.' Jenny looked back at Shimmer with a mouth full of cereal and thought about her statement as she munched on her cereal. "Well... we are all like the Dalmatians. Cause they gots a crazy lady with a white paint in her hair after them and we gots a bunch of Cruella's after us. I just think its cause we're bigger than the little doggies," Jenny said in a very serious voice before turning back to the film.

She watched with wide eyes before she heard Shimmer ask about their Lucky Charms. "It's Lucky Charms cereal. I love the marshmallows. You can haves some, but you gots to go to the kitchen to get a bowl and spoon on the count that I didn'ts know you'd come and only brought one for me and Lily," Jenny said apologetically before the sound of the Colonel barking brought her back to the movie.

"Oh this is where Pongo and Perdita save the puppies and get those mean ol' bad guys. Go Pongo! Go Perdy! Get 'em!" she cried and waved her spoon at the TV as the two Dalmatians fought the bad guys. "Look! His pants are on fire! Yay Perdita!" Jenny pointed and erupted in giggles. She liked rooting for the good guys, especially the puppies.
