[A young woman appears on the screen, she’s pale, but the most striking feature about her would have to be the white streaks that frame her face, standing out in contrast from her otherwise brown hair. She gives a half-smile, and holds up a gloved hand in greeting.
When she speaks, her accent is a soft Southern, with a few New York quirks. She's lived there long enough to pick up a few vocal ticks.]
Hey, ya’ll. This is some nifty technology, ain't it? [Whew, ice broken.]
So I know some of everyone here happens to be from the same… worlds, I guess? Universe? So I just thought I’d ask… Does the letter X mean anything to you?
[She doesn’t want to come right out and announce to the whole place that she’s part of a group of mutants that sometimes go out and superhero. She doesn’t know what sort of people are here, what their prejudices might be. It’d be really stupid to come out and tell everyone she kills people when she touches them. That’d be a fast way to get herself airlocked, and she’d rather not experience that, thanks.
BUT if there are people here who are like her? She's not holding her breath for anyone she knows knows, but it'd be good to have a potential ally, should things go South.]
If it doesn't, no worries. I look forward to meeting ya'll. [There. She's putting herself out there. Logan would be so proud.]

[ He knows that name on the display, that voice, that face. ]
audio;
Logan? what the hell are you doing in space?
audio;
Y'know, I ask myself that every day. Where are you?
audio;
I'm in the suites? number 4.
audio;
[ But hey, he can walk and talk at the same time. ]
What all do you remember from before?
audio;
Bobby and Kitty ice skating. [do you hear that bitterness?]
audio;
Not that. Before, when you were on Kauto. You were already here when I arrived, then you left.
audio;
...no? Logan, I ain't got the foggiest what you're talking about.
audio;
Back home, what year is it?
audio;
[What a weird question.]
audio;
[ Things'll get weirder, lbr. ]
audio;
...What?
[What's going on, why is that a bad thing, Logan?]
audio;
It's 2029 where I come from.
audio;
[2029?]
audio >> action;
[ Knock knock, Rogue. ]

When she opens the door she doesn't waste any time, wrapping her arms around Logan in a careful hug. It was good to see him, even if she'd last seen him a few hours ago.] Logan! [it takes a moment, but it slowly dawns on her that he's different- older. Still clearly Logan, but she couldn't deny the change.]
Oh my gosh- it's so good to see you!
action; wehhh
If his voice is a bit ragged, well. Life's full of mysteries. ]
You have no idea.
Re: action; wehhh
Look at you- you're so much older than the last time I saw you. What happened?
[The slow passage of time, hopefully, without anyone dying or anything like that. Please?
It occurs to her, too, that there's something different in his voice. It's not just age- but something he wants to hide, something she hasn't heard before from him. But she knows better than to press. If he wants to share, he'll share. Until then, she's just so happy to see him. Space was a whole lot less lonely when he was around.]
