Pixie has posed:
After the dust had settled, Megan had stayed behind to clean up the mess left behind by the gremlins. The rest of the concert had been cancelled anyway, and a few feathers had been ruffled. Megan of course blamed herself for talking Sam into even running the talent show in the first place, although she still hadn't quite figured out why they had targetted Shannon.

She yawns and stretches tiredly as she sweeps up some broken glass, looking quite tired. All that portal openning took its toll on her, and she's still a bit scratched up from the gremlins that attacked her while doing it.

"Oh, what a mess.." she sighs.

Superboy has posed:
Conner had the intention to get Megan back to her home as soon as possible. But instead the girl insisted to stay to clean up the club. So, he stayed too, tried to bandage her injuries and helped out. How own wounds are healing fast, but not as fast as it they were normal wounds, and his t-shirt is pretty much ruined.

The good news is that with the club staff's help they have cleaned the debris and broken glass in record time. The not so good news is Megan looks about to crumble. "You know, you could come back tomorrow too," he offers. "After getting some rest."

Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn sighs a little, leaning against the nearby wall. She was grateful for Conner's help, not only in fighting the baddies but also dressing her wounds. She doesn't have super healing or anything either, and in fact conventional meds don't work so well on her which makes getting injured pretty scary.

"Ahh, it's such a mess though, and it's all my fault.." she pouts a little but nods. "Although you're probably right..We did good though, didn't we?" she grins, "We showed 'em whose boss, just wish they didn't have to come and ruin the talent show.." she seems pretty sad, this was her big day.

"He'll never trust me again.."

Superboy has posed:
"How is it your fault? You were not the one attacking the club," points out Conner. He drops his mop and gives Megan an amused glance. "You did great," he adds, walking closer to the pink-haired. "In the show, and later, where it counts. You sent those little goblins away," pause, where did she send them? Might be important for later. "And no one got seriously hurt. And this is mutant town, this kind of thing happens every other day. Nobody cares."

The last but is a bit harsh but quite true. Conner grabs her sweeper, leaving it against the wall. "That's it, you're not even thinking straight. I am taking you home."

Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn bites her lip, thinking that over. "I dunno, I guess I talked Sam into doing it, even though I knew there were all these gremlin attacks that kept happening around the students..Oh!" she blinks, covering her mouth, remembering that that's supposed to be a big secret. But she's really bad at keeping secrets.

Still, Megan beams at the praise, peering at him thoughtfully, "Thanks, you're really sweet but..." she bites her lip, wondering how to get out of this. It's not like she can exactly take him with her to the Institute. Not without getting into major trouble and potentially exposing her little secret.

"Um, it's a little complicated, where I live so..How about we just hang out here a bit longer? I should be okay in a few.." with a sigh, she leans against the wall again, closing her eyes briefly.

Superboy has posed:
"We could go to my place," he offers. Yes, he knows about secret identities and all that. Although he is not sure how Megan can hide her wings and eyes. "It is close. And I don't sleep much. I can skip one night." That might be doesn't sound right. "And the couch is comfortable too," he semi-fixes it. Maybe.

And she is about to faint. "Or maybe they have a couch somewhere here, because I think you would fall asleep along the way." He wraps an arm around her shoulders for support. "C'mon pretty girl. It is tree in the morning and this place is as clean as it can get tonight."

Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn blinks slowly, pondering that one over for a minute or two. It would be better to rest up somewhere, although she'll get in a lot of trouble inviting a non-mutant to Xavier's. Still, can she trust him? She blushes a bit at the thought.

"Umm, at your place? Is that okay? I mean..?" she shivers a bit at his touch but seems to trust him. Hey, he's a superhero, not like he's ever tried to take advantage of her, right? Megan smiles faintly and nods. "Umm sure! Although I probably shouldn't port right now..Back to Metropolis, right?"

Superboy has posed:
Conner smiles and shakes his head, "no, I live in New York, near the Empire State University. I got a good deal because I am a student." And that is Manhattan, so still crazy expensive.

Oh, and she is blushing? Conner reaches with a hand for Megan's cheek, looking at her strange eyes. "I can also call a cab for you; it can take you anywhere." And he would not know where, either. Her secrets are safe. Coming to his apartment, well? It definitely gives ideas to a boy.

Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn blinks, "Ooh, right. That's not that far." she grins, "Wanna fly? I can't fly as fast as you, but doesn't mean I can't try!" though touching her cheek just makes her blush some more, as if she couldn't possibly turn any redder. "Um..." she shakes her head, smiling still. "Well....Seeing as today went so..So wrong, it's be nice to..You know..." she laughs nervously but doesnt pull away, pressing her face into his hand a little, enjoying the touch "Go on a proper, uninterrupted date..Or something?"

Superboy has posed:
Conner grins, "it is a bit too late. Hey, this wasn't bad if we count it as a date. It had music, dancing and a monster attack. It is traditional among superheroes, you know? Monsters and super-villains always interrupt."

Can she fly? "Megan, you can barely walk, come," he lets her lean on him to the door, then takes her in his arms, careful not to constrict her wings. "We are going to be there in ten minutes."

Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn giggles, "Hey, did you at least have fun here, tonight? Even if it did end on a sour note.." she pouts and sighs, "Yeaah..I guess it comes with the territory. I'm still working on being a proper superhero though.."

And then he pulls her into his arms and her eyes widen, blushing all the more. "W-heey! Really it's okay!" but she doesn't protest too much. Afterall, it's kinda nice being pampered by a cute guy for once. She smiles faintly and giggles, "Okaaay, if you insist..Lead on, then!"

Superboy has posed:
It was fun... well, the thrill of fighting. He would lie if he said he was not a superhero for the occasional adrenaline rushes. "Sometimes it is fun, and I get a picking a pretty girl in my arms. Can't complain too much. I am just sorry you got hurt."

His apartment is actually a large studio. The window is open, as he cares little about the cold or heat. Also, it is good to come and go flying like now. He lets her stand as soon as he touches the floor, but keeps his arms on her hips for a minute longer if she lets him.

Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn laughs a little at that, shaking her head. "Gee, I'm sure you get a lot of admirers. That must be nice, huh." she hadn't talked more than that during the flight, getting in much needed rest, although she wasn't *that* weak that she hadn't more or less recovered from summoning such a large portal for so long. Still, doesn't mean she cant enjoy this all.

And suddenly they're at their destination, and her strange, marroon eyes widen in curiosity, peering this way and that. "Woow, nice place!" she giggles some more definitely nervous. It's not like she's caught the attention of many boys at the institute. Most of them had their sights set on Shannon.

"So..." Megan glances back at him curiously, instinctively resting her hands on his shoulders as she peers up at him curiously, and a bit nervously. "Soo, umm...What do you wanna do, now?"

Superboy has posed:
Conner hmms, "kiss you, I think," and he pulls closer, tentatively. If she pulls back, he won't insist, but otherwise he first brushes her lips, and shifts a hand from her hip to her upper back, pulling her closers gently if she is still there.

He is a superhero, but definitely taking advantage! Well, he would have also done this if she had asked him to call a cab, before letting her go. But doing this in his home is so much better.

Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn is honestly not very experienced with kisses, and her eyes widen a bit, her heart thumping so fast that she feels she might just have a heart attack! "Um.." she licks her lips, but doesn't pull away, eyes fluttering closed as she leans into him, meeting her lips against his, sighing softly. Yeah, she's new at this, and totally naieve, but..Hey he seems like a nice guy, right? And it..Kinda feels good, too..
