Phoenix has posed:\<br\>Another long day at work and Jean is pretty beat. But it's getting closer to vacation day and she's poring over some brochures, still not sure exactly where they're headed. At least it's a mild night tonight as she sits on the back porch, enjoying a clear view of the mountains for once. The porchlight offers a soft amber glow to the porch, lending it an ethereal touch.
Cyclops has posed:\<br\>Scott Summers walks out a glass of wine for Jean and a scotch for himself he sits beside Jean and puts an arm around her. "Heya Jean, so everything good?" He asks. "Tell me how's your day been, I'll tell you some bits and we can move on to planning this trip, I agree you and I need a break
Phoenix has posed:\<br\>Jean Grey smiles, accepting the wine glass as she leans in against him. "Hello love, how was your day?" she nods, taking a sip, feeling the warm, relaxing liquid slide down her throat. Mm, that feels good after all that hard work.\<br\>\<br\>"Hmm, well I had a chat with Angelica. She is a sweet girl, and willing to give teaching a try, I offered to support her however she needs it but she seems pretty confident.." her smile fades just a touch.\<br\>\<br\>"However, I think we need to watch out for Emma. There is still some bad blood between them, I think, although I don't know the particulars, only that she used to be a student of Emma's, and was manipulated and used quite a bit by her in the past.."
Cyclops has posed:\<br\>Scott Summers shrugs and nods taking a long sip oh yes the warmth feels nice. "Well we just try and keep them separated as best we can yes? As for your chat, what reasoning did you give her?" He asks and smiles a touch. "I had a conversation with Logan, it was alright he was worried about the contract." He says with a sigh. "He seems to understand though, even recommended I take you on vacation."
Phoenix has posed:\<br\>Jean Grey frowns just a bit. "Hmm, well I just told her that he's a guest speaker and not a permanent resident. That we really would like someone more permanent for that position.." she pauses, hesitant. "I..Was willing to give her futher detail but she seemed satisfied with that.." she glances thoughtfully at him, knowing exactly how he might feel about that.\<br\>\<br\>As for the Logan thing, she just sighs and shakes her head. "I did what I felt was for the best...Eliminating a common enemy, rather than allow him to run amok and unchecked. I have been considering asking Emma's assistance in psychically scanning that gemstone, just for peace of mind."
Cyclops has posed:\<br\>Scott Summers shakes his head with a sigh. "Ok I'll talk with her about the ethical reasoning and why but your explanation was of course great." He says before continuing on. "No I think it best to let the Ruby Quartz stay as it is. If you disagree I'll follow your lead on this, but in truth we have no way of knowing one way or the other what may have happened.
Phoenix has posed:\<br\>Jean Grey hms, "We could..But it could still pose a threat. Do we know how stable that prison is? Are we certain we captured the right Sinister?" she sighs and shakes her head. "I just want to be a hundred percent sure I did the right thing.."\<br\>\<br\>Jean takes another long sip of wine, closing her eyes. "We...Really need to get away from this all, we're overdue for a vacation. I'm overthinking things. We both are..Have you decided on a destination yet?"
Cyclops has posed:\<br\>Scott Summers nods his head. "I agree and I thought we'd settled on some remote tropical island." He says with a smirk. "Where you know I can see you in a bikini."
Phoenix has posed:\<br\>Jean Grey grins and winks, reaching up to caress his cheek, fingers trailing down his defined jawline. "Ooh, I'll bet you're just dying to see the bikini I picked out but didn't show you yet." she smiles and winks playfully at him, "For your eyes only." As for a place, Jean nods, "Ooh, there are probably a ton of remote, tropical islands. How about you surprise me?" now that she's more relaxed, Jean can afford to be a bit more playful for once..
Cyclops has posed:\<br\>Scott Summers chuckles and picks her up placing Jean in his lap. "Mmmm....is that so, why don't you show it to me?" He asks with a playful wink.
Phoenix has posed:\<br\>Jean Grey chuckles, wrapping her arms around his neck. "What, and ruin the surprise? Where's the fun in that? I'd rather keep you waiting in anticipation, way more fun that way." she smiles, tracing his lips with her fingers. "Or are you that eager to leave right away?"
Cyclops has posed:\<br\>Scott Summers smiles. "I'm always eager to get time alone with you my love." He says with a smile
