It's a beautiful day, the sun is shining..And Autumn is juuust around the corner. Too bad the days are getting cooler and shorter. Oh and school starts in a few days. Megan is Soo not ready, for that and other things as she flutters awkwardly into the backyard, her upper left wing slashed nearly to ribbons and sending her trajectory awkwardly, dangerously at an odd angle that eventually sends her crashing to the ground..

"Eeek!"

Elixir has posed:
The day being nice and classes starting up again soon also has the resident golden boy out and about to enjoy the sunshine and weather that's still warm enough to not have to wear coats. Josh Foley has just finished his daily run and is heading back towards the mansion so he can go get cleaned up when he sees something moving from the corner of his eye.

Catching sight of Megan just before she comes crashing down to the ground, Josh's eyes widen and he sprints into the garden and starts looking for her roughly where she came tumbling down. He runs around a row of hedges when he finally sees her on the ground and approaches her, kneeling down by her side, "You okay?" He looks her over and immediately notices the condition of her wing, "Oh man..."

Pixie has posed:
A bunch of shrubs had broken her fall thankfully, but now she's covered in leaves and dirt, and a bit bruised..But mostly it's the wing that looks bad. She groaaans, climbing shakily to her feet. "Owwww, that huuurt.." Megan sighs, glancing around and smiles faintly at Josh. Just the person she needed to see!

"Josh, hi! Good to see you!" she shrugs, flexing her wings though the wounded one droops, large holes showing in it. "I..I guess so? Serves me right thinking I might be able to fly a little with this wounded wing..At least it's doesn't hurt much..?" still, her wings in general drop and glimmer in a gloomy blackish grey tone.

Elixir has posed:
Josh kneels down and starts brushing away the fallen limbs and leaves that landed on Megan until she starts to get to her feet. He offers his arm, held out towards her, to use if she needs it, "Careful."

Once she's standing, he looks her over for signs of damage, but mainly just notices the state of her wing. She seems to be in pretty good spirits despite having holes in her wings. He offers the girl a warm smile and runs a hand through his hair to get a loose strand out of his eyes, "You look like you could use some help with that wing. Want me to see what I can do about it?"

Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn smiles and nods, taking his arm. "Thank you Josh..Hey it's good to see you back, it's been a while.." not that she knew him super well, but he had helped her back when she got pretty sick last year.

"Yeah, I kinda need my wing back, especially if those scary..Things start chasing me down again.." she shivers at the memory. "Can you fix it?"

Elixir has posed:
Anyone who lives here is good people, as far as Josh knows, and even though he and Megan aren't exactly best friends he knows and likes her. "Thanks," he says with a bashful drop of his head, "Guess I got a little carried away with class last year and kinda dropped off the radar." He looks back up, "But I'm back and I don't plan on going away again."

He looks up at her wing again to give it a quick visual inspection before he looks back at her again, "Scary things chased you?" There's a moment of concern that spreads across his face, "What.. kind of scary things?" He is almost afraid to ask and looks back to the damaged wing, "Okay if I touch your wing to see what I can do?"

Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn smiles faintly, "I'm glad you're back, we were from the same generation, and I hear you're joining the Xmen too!" she beams at that. "I'm kinda glad..Everyone there is Soo much older than me and super tight.."

Yeah, she is pretty cheerful, but isn't Megan always cheerful? "It's okay, I had friends there to protect me, they beat em up, but I hope there won't be more.." she bites her lip, a bit worried about that.

"Even so, I have to be ready if there are.." another nod is given, "Yeah, you can touch it. It doesn't hurt really, as long as it wasn't ripped off the base, it just looks ugly, will probably take a few weeks to regrow the tissue otherwise.."

Elixir has posed:
"I am," Josh says in response to her mentioning his joining the X-Men, a proud smile on his face. Her comment about the rest of the team being much older and tight forces a laugh from the young man, a hand resting on his stomach, "No kidding!" He glances around quickly to make sure none of them are around, "They're always so serious."

He steps to her side so he can get a better angle on her wing. "Don't worry, I'll fix it up as much as I can," he says as his arms raise and he reaches for her wing. When his fingers touch them, he blinks at their texture. He wasn't expecting it to feel the way that it does. Then again, he doesn't know exactly what he was expecting at all. He exhales quickly through his nose as he closes his eyes and begins to focus. "Here we go."

Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn giggles and nods, "Right! I mean, except for Kurt, he's super fun! But, Mr. Summers always carries around those detention slips, and I keep thinking too much around Ms. Grey. Logan is like..Like a cranky bear and did you know that Sabretooth is part of the team too?" she shivers.

As for the wing, she just giggles, "Heey, they're a lot tougher than they look, but, I guess those demon dogs were tougher.." she sighs sadly, "They were really scary, all shadowy with red eyes and long fangs.."

Megan does try not to move too much as he inspects her wings. There are a few scratches here and there although mostly it's just the upper left wing that took a nasty hit, reduced to nearly ribbons. Oh and her left upper arm is wrapped in a bandages though the bleeding has stopped and it's been stitched up a bit.

Elixir has posed:
Josh's eyes remained closed as he starts to concentrate on using his ability to heal Megan's wings. Wrinkles form across his forehead and his lips purse tightly together until she mentions demon dogs with red eyes and long fangs. His concentration slips for a moment and the tensed expression on his face shifts to one of confusion but only for a moment. He'll worry about the freakin' demon dogs later. Demon dogs though? Really?

His focus returns and his body tingles as he directs the sensation to Megan's wings. Her wings slowly begin to recover. The holes slowly begin to shrink until they are gone. Beads of sweat form all over Josh's face as the damage to Megan's wings slowly disappears. What he's doing is working, but it's clearly taking its toll on his energy.

Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn can feel the healing kicking in, and it's kind of soothing. She smiles faintly as she feels the strength coming gotta back, neck, her wings are glowing bright pink now. "Thanks, Josh, it's like new now.." though her smile quickly fades as she turns around to face him, clearly concerned. Did his healing hurt him as much as it did Shannon? "Hey, are you okay? I'm sorry, I didn't think the wound would be so extensive.."

Elixir has posed:
When the healing is complete and Megan's wings are all as good as new, Josh releases her and takes a few steps back. His eyes open but he blinks a few times rapidly as his vision swims a bit from the exertion. "No, yeah.. I'm fine," he says as he offers her a smile, "it just takes a little out of me."

"And you're welcome Megan, I'm just glad I could help," he says as he lifts a hand to his forehead and wipes sweat away with a light sigh, "It's definitely not as bad as I've done in the past, but I need to keep working on my powers so it doesn't drain me as much, you know?" He felt like he just ran double the distance he just finished and his chest and shoulders are heaving as he breathes deeply. "I think I just need to sit down for a minute."

Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn blinks slowly, reaching out to rest a hand in his shoulder and steady him. "Yea, come on.." she leads him to a nearby bench rp to rest. "Thanks! I feel good as new..But I feel bad for you healers, I mean, since drugs don't work as well on me, I rely on you and Shannon more than others. But I'm glad you guys are around when I need help."

Elixir has posed:
When Megan touches his shoulder, Josh looks at her and smiles, nodding, "Thanks." He walks with her to the bench and lowers himself onto it, sitting back and exhaling slowly. "It's really not a problem, I promise." He lets his eyes drift shut for a moment as a slight breeze rolls through the garden and cools his golden skin, "Getting tired is a small price to pay for fixing up stuff like you had to deal with." He rolls his head over until he's facing her, opening his eyes, "I just need a little rest and I'll be good as new. And I'm just glad that I can be here to help. And Shannon too when I can't be."

Pixie has posed:
Megan Gwynn smiles as she sits next to him, drawing a deep breath, "Yeah..I guess so. We sure are lucky to have such talented healers around but I should be more careful next time.." she pours though as her alarm goes off which is set loud enough to startle her. "Ack! I forgot! I have to buy my text books before classes start tomorrow and the store is closing soon! See you later Josh!" and with a little wave, she hurries off.
