- Nightcrawler has posed:
Sometimes, there is a deep, gnawing hunger, one that digs deep into your soul, into your very bones. Something that makes you crave the innocene of yesteryear, grasping at straws...
... sometimes, you just really want a PFEFFERNUESSE COOKIE.
So, Kurt Wagner is trying his hand at making the dish, a hand-written recipie clipped to the handle of the one of the cabinets in the kitchen, a mixing bowl with some cookie dough left in it, and a few flour spots here and there.
He has an oven mit on his tail, just so that he doesn't lose it.
Softly playing over one of the speakers in the kitchen is a classical piece from an album titled Night at the Opera:
"I see a little sillouette of a man -- Scaramuche, scaramuche, will you do the fan-DAN-go o/`"
- Pixie has posed:
Okaaay, it's probably an understatement to say that Megs is not a very talented cook, or that she's a wee bit of a clutch in the kitchen...But the sound of soft music and bustling in the kitchen caught her attention. Was Shannon working on more cookies and in need of a test subject?
She licks her lips eagerly as she approaches, only too happy to be a test subject to her latest experimental cooking! "Hiiiiii! whatcha doing?" she quips, popping out if seemingly nowhere, peeking over his shoulder.
- Nightcrawler has posed:
"Ah! Allo, Miss Gwynn!" Kurt gives a toothy grin as he pulls out one tray of spicy smelling cookies from the oven, turning to set them to the side on a rack, and tuck the next round in the oven.
"Pfeffernuesse, or Peppernuts. From Germany. There was a bakery in a town where the circus stopped around Christmas one year that made them." he gives a bit of a grin. "You may need to let them cool, for a bit, but you know what all fresh cookies need, bitte?"
- Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn's eyes widen at the sight of the spicy smelling koookies, nose twitching hungrily. "Mmmmmmmm it smells sooo good! Pepper it's huh? that's sooo cool! Need any help?" she blinks quizzically and shakes her head. "Noooo what did they need? more sugar? I like sugar!" she beams, an impish twinkle in her eye, like she needs more sugar.
- Nightcrawler has posed:
"I would think that you have had enough sugar, I was going to suggest a cup of milk!" Kurt laughs mirthfully, the joy not quite matching his demonic appearance as he closes the oven. "And ja, there is black pepper in them. It helps the other spices stand out, without adding too much heat. Balance is important, you know." he gives a smile as he reaches for a couple of cups. "So, do what do I owe the pleasure of this intrusion, or were you simply looking for some treats?"
- Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn awwwes and pouts, wings fluttering eagerly, "Heeeey can you ever really have tooo much sugar? isn't sugar like, like energy?" she makes a face and shrugs, "Guess it's too late for sugar though, isn't it?" another shrug as Megan peers to the fridge then back at Kurt thoughtfully, "Oooh, well I was just about to fix a snack but I know Shan's usually lurking around this time, cooking one fun thing or other..."
- Nightcrawler has posed:
"That is true, she does like to haunt the kitchen. I may not be as good a cook, but I can manage to follow directions... most of the time." Kurt replies as he sets some of the warm spice cookies on a plate, and sets out the two cups, one in hand, one with his tail looped around it, and he sits on a barstool at the counter.
"Speaking of.... how have you two been recovering?" he inquires gently, his head giving a little tilt to peer a tPixie.
- Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn smiles, propping up to sit on the edge of the counter and grins, stretching her faerie wings. "All better now thanks to Miss Morgana...Altgough it took a lot out of her. Guess I owe her one.." she seems thoughtful, maybe a bit concerned for her friend and mentor for a moment, but shrugs and smiles, "Ooooh and guess what else? Cyclops finally admitted me into the Xmen! You're looking at the team's youngest X-girl!" she grins, striking a pose.
- Nightcrawler has posed:
"Hmm.. you know, there are many stories about being wary of the supernatural -- for instance, some of them teleport and make awful, awful parents." Kurt replies a little ruefully as he sits, stretching his arms over his head a moment in the Xavier School T-shirt he's wearing, and he gives a grin.
"Congratulations, I'm very proud of you. You know, it takes a lot of responsibility to be an X-man, it can be a very difficult life -- with some difficult choices." Kurt states as he pours a couple of cups of milk, sliding one over to Megan.
"I want you to know that should you require guidance, I am still there to help you."
- Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn smirks, tilting her head, curious, "Soo are you talking about yourself or...?" she giggles a bit and nods, "Thanks! I'm super excited and I even got Alice to design a costume for me!" she beams, "Even got to do my first danger room session as an official Xman.."
Megan pauses, considering, biting her lip, "But...If I'm careful, it won't be so bad, right? I can save lives too!" she adds hopefully. "Actually, I'd still like some help with learning to port more quickly, sometimes I can hesitate, lose focus. I need to learn to port on a time.."
- Nightcrawler has posed:
"Let's just say I speak from experience, though I am firmly *not* a parent." Kurt states, though there's a little bit of sadness and edge to his voice as he listens to Megan speak with all that pride.
"Well. You should be careful anyway. You get to decide what sort of person who would like to be -- take Logan and Scott, for example! Fine, upstanding gentlemen. Strong fighters, full of courage -- *very* different methods." Kurt points out. "Or Ororo and Jean. Sam and Dani." he plucks a cookie up between his fingers, and gently tears it, the smell of cinnamon, lemon, ginger and black pepper wafting up.
"What do you think is causing you to hesitate?" he asks, raising an eyebrow.
- Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn blinks slowly, "Soooo...Adoptive parent?" she giggles a bit, peering at him curiously, "So..I should have a role model. How about someone like you? Happy, fun playful, but deadly when you need to be? I think that's the best combination." she smiles, all fearless and naive and maybe a bit green around the ears.
"Hesitate? Well...Nothing much just..Sometimes, like when the walls cave in, when I'm in a crowded space..It can get a bit scary and it's hard to focus.." she shivers a bit, "See, my dad..Died in a mining explosion. Always hated mines ever since.."
- Nightcrawler has posed:
"I am not the parent in this case, Megan." Kurt states, a little more sternly, but his tail flicks, its fork catching against the edge of his stool before he lets out a little breath, and gives a soft hum.
"I do not enjoy the violence. I know that it needs to be done, and when I have exhausted /all/ other avenues only then would I have to be deadly. Luckily, I am quite frightening if you do not know me." he gives a half-hearted little grin, but he gives a nod.
"I will happily mentor you. As for your teleporting -- practice. Until it becomes as natural as taking a breath. Picture as clear as you can where you want to be, and step there."
