[ To say that it is taking some effort to adjust to the new reality Ororo has suddenly found herself in would be quite an understatement, but she still manages to look perfectly calm and composed as she offers the network a polite smile.
Would she like to maybe have herself a minor little breakdown? Sure. But she has absolutely no idea what sort of consequences that might have considering the quite substantial storm that is already going on outside the Ingress Complex, and there really just isn't time to fall apart right now. Maybe at some later point she can allow herself to fully absorb the shock of what has happened, but for now she has to keep moving forward. ]
Hello. My name is Ororo Munroe, and I'm a relatively new arrival here. Where I'm from I'm a teacher, mostly ancient history which isn't really going to be too useful around here unless some of you are dying to know about the Roman Empire, even if that was never a thing on your planet or in your timeline.
What I also am, is a mutant, which in my case means I have the ability to control the weather. I can survive in just about any climate, and I can get all sorts of information about what is going on in the environment around me because I am basically wired into it, which is a gross oversimplification but you didn't come here for a lecture.
[ Damn, but it feels pretty good to not hide what she can do. Screw anonymity, she's nowhere near Earth and its mutant registration act, and she is going to be completely and unashamedly herself. ]
I'm mentioning these things because I'm going to be needing a job pretty soon, so I figured I should put myself out there. Thank you for listening.
[ Her expression shifts into something a bit more amused, and at the same time sort of sad. ]
Oh, and if you have any good hangover remedies? Feel free to share them.
[ She's asking for a friend.
No, seriously, she is. ]

[For a moment, she had forgotten all about that. Kurt and Jean... They were both a lot younger than what Rogue recalled them to be, and she isn't certain whether Storm knows of Peter. Just because Rogue hadn't didn't mean that she didn't.]
That takes a little getting used to... The Professor was here, a lot younger too. Like, hair on his head young. [Although she turns pensive for a moment.] But he's gone now.
[Him and Logan within a short time.
Yet her reply does get a soft cough from Rogue, and the smallest twitch of her lips.]
Don't think there is anyone here to say anything about that. And... It is nice to have a familiar face.
video
You'll have two, actually. Logan is here with me.
[ It wouldn't have felt right to keep that from Rogue, she knows that the two of them have a special kind of bond. ]
He's... a little different though.
video
He's... there?
[Because there goes the misunderstanding.]
He's been there the whole time? Since he left?
video
[ All of this is enough to give just about anyone a headache, isn't it? ]
He's from over twenty years into our future.
video
That's- Kurt and Jean are here, and they're younger. A lot younger. Teenagers.
[And she's babbling a little now, because what do you say to that.]
video
Yes, I've spoken to them. They seem to be from some kind of... parallel universe, the past they live in doesn't match up with the one I remember.
video
I didn't know that... I just thought Peter had left before my time at the institute, and that Kurt just hadn't spoken about his past that much.
