Polaris has posed:
Lorna was outside, enjoying the glimpse of good weather yet to come. There was a warm breeze, high clouds and a sun above it all. Picturesque nearly. Which was why Lorna was outside and tracing over the grounds of the backyard where various students kept closer to the Mansion than proper. With the vanishing of the other students in a hazy ball of magic, everyone was on high alert. No one was allowed out into the woods beyond, and curfew was heavily enforced.

Yet Lorna wasn't a student, nor was she faculty. The Princess of Genosha was simply acting as a highly protective, not at all maternal, figure these days. She went on X-men missions, worked with charities and coordinated diplomatic business for the island nation half a world away.

The green haired woman for now, seemed mostly relaxed as she paced about outside, hands in the pocket of her jeans and a simple T-shirt with flip-flops was all she'd bothered to put on. It was //sunny// for once. And Lorna had missed the sun while wintering away in New York.

Quicksilver has posed:
Well, one of the breezes that Lorna may have been experiencing was her brother, Pietro Maximoff, zooming across the school grounds until he's a few steps in front of her. Black track jacket with grey gloves and nice jeans. White shoes. He looked nice! His silver hair still the best notification of his presence, aside from the blue streak he makes as he runs. He crosses his arms as he looks at his younger sister.

"Hey sis. What's up?" Pietro seems to take advantage and make sure his sister is on fleek. Not bad. She could use a green poncho though. that would make her eyes look AWESOME.

In the meantime, he looks serious. "How you doing?"

Polaris has posed:
The fast whip lash like speed in which her brother appeared left Lorna nearly jumping in surprise as Pietro zoomed into her line of sight and greeted her. She cursed under her breath, shaking her head as she eyed Pietro up and down with a slight twist of her lips. "Well, lets see, you missed Purim with father. Kitty and I actually got him to go to Temple, by the way." She crossed her arms as she considered her older brother, noting that he was whole and in one piece.

"And the other day a bunch of student just got kidnapped by some crazy magic woman when they snuck outside during curfew. So you know. Normal here." She arched a brow upward as she shifted her weight on her feet. "What have //you// been up to?"

Quicksilver has posed:
Pietro noticed that she's copied his B-boy stance! She can't do that, that's Pietro's thing! >:(

But then Pietro visibly relaxes, before he looks guilty about missing Purim. "Well, I just assumed that Dad wouldn't do it since he never leaves Genosha for anything these days." he sighs. "How is he?"

Nope, no apology from Pietro. But, the pride of the father....

Meantime, he's asked what he's been up to. "Oh, just keeping Wanda safe while working with the Avengers. They accepted me, something that still surprises me, to be honest. But...its a good feeling, you know. Anyway, I've just been working is all." he sighs. "Need any help getting those students back?"

Polaris has posed:
Lorna shrugged once as she made to head to a nearby bench to sit on rather than just stand around talking to her brother. Her green eyed gaze swung back to the students doing.. whatever student were doing. Some kind of a sport? Looked like a sport. Lorna didn't particularly care, so long as they stayed near the Mansion proper and no one was bleeding.

"Well, did you ever ask him to leave Genosha or anything? That's literally all I did Pietro. I asked him to come meet me and when he came out, it was at the Temple and he agreed to come inside." She pursed her lips together briefly, folding her legs as she leaned back on the bench.

"Father is well enough, by the way. You should visit sometime." She murmured and then slowly shook her head.

"Since when is magic your thing? I thought it was Wanda's thing." She teased.

Quicksilver has posed:
Pietro looks at Lorna as she speaks. "No. Because if I ask him for anything, we get into an argument and dad reminds me why he's such a colossal asshole." Pietro and Erik have always been mostly at odds with each other. Its even worse when they're basically the same person. "I probably should. Geez, if only to make you happy." Pietro turns his head away, always in denial and being...well, Pietro.

"Magic is only my thing because...well, uh, my girlfriend happens to be a practician." Wait, WHAT?!

Pietro has a lady love?!

Polaris has posed:
Lorna shook her head slowly at Pietro as he speaks about their father being an asshole. Sure, Lorna had her issues with the man..but living under his roof in Genosha for the past year had soften her stance on her father entirely too much. Of course, given that she was the youngest, the magnokinetic decidedly had an easier time of getting away with such things compared to Pietro.

"You're too much alike." As if that summed up everything. In her mind, it did. As with real magnets, so were the Magnus children to their father.

Still, Lorna leaned forward to thwack at Pietro's shoulder lightly, should he allow it that is, when he agreed to visit, if only to make her happy. Much the same reasoning their father used when Lorna asked him for something... to make her happy. The green haired mutant grinned faintly, only to go slack jawed as Pietro continued onward and spoke of having... a girlfriend! She gaped, her eyebrows shooting upward. "Wait, what?! When?! Who? What the hell Pietro! You're supposed to tell your sister these things. How long has Wanda known?"

Quicksilver has posed:
"Okay, okay, okay...that's a long story."

Pietro lifts his hands to try and calm Lorna with a smile on his face. "Uhm...well, we started dating a few months ago, then we got serious, didn't want to introduce her to dad because he's still considered a terrorist to anyone who's not a mutant, and...well, her name is Zatanna. She's nice, you'd like her. I met her at one of her shows that I got dragged to." he is just smiling from ear to ear at the thought of her.

"I...uh..actually haven't found time to tell Wanda yet. Mainly because I don't know where she is, but I have a hunch that she's in Genosha which falls in line with reason number 1."

He smiles then. "I really like her."

Polaris has posed:
A blink, and then a second blink, as Lorna just //stared// at her older brother in utter shock. Particularly at the point when he mentioned that //Wanda didn't know about his girlfriend that he'd been dating for months//. "Holy. Shit." She whistled as she sat back against the bench, her gaze held singularly on her older brother. "Oh man, Wanda is gonna be so pissed that you didn't tell her before you told me." She slowly shook her head and exhaled heavily.

A few moment passed as Lorna considered the high wafting clouds above and the nice gentle breeze that swept over the backyard. "So... does she know that you're related to dad and all, or have you left that part out?"

Quicksilver has posed:
"I know, I know! I told Wanda about her just...left out the dating part, ya know? I know I'm not exact part of the...well, lets be honest, best family history in the world but...I want to keep this one, Lorna. and especially if I introduce her to dad and he doesn't like her?" The Genoshan Prince does make a pretty solid point.

"Plus I'd rather not have her bring the Justice League down on our doorstep or something. Its just complicated."

Pietro rubs his face. "But, I'm happy. Speakin' of which..." he elbow nudges Lorna. "Meet someone yet?"

Polaris has posed:
Another surprised glance followed Pietro's words, that he'd mentioned the woman he was dating, but not that they'd been dating. Oh boy. "Well, your funeral. Wanda //is// your twin and I'm pretty sure if she did the same, you'd flip your shit." She drawled, over-protective brother that he was, Lorna reached over to poke him in the shoulder with a pointed jab of her index finger.

"So does she //know// who your family is, or not? That's kind of important. And Dad will like her so long as she's a mutant. Otherwise, good luck. I assume with a name like Zatanna she's not some nice Jewish girl either. So. Yeah. Good luck with that." She teased, though there was a pinched look to her expression as Pietro spoke of her bringing down the whole freaking Justice League down on Genosha or something. She pursed her lips together and frowned.

"She'd better not? I like Genosha as it is, thank you, very much. I'm happy she makes you happy, but if she turns you into a frog, I'm sicking Wanda on her.." She she teased, trying to lighten the mood and fighting back the urge to grimace as Pietro asked after her dating life.

"Nope. Not a one. That whole Genoshan Princess thing and youngest daughter of Magneto seems to have ensured I'll die alone."

Quicksilver has posed:
"Oh come on, why would you pull that card on me." Pietro just groans. "Why? Huh? WHY!" he's just being a drama queen at the moment. He smiles then for a moment. "No, she's not Jewish. That's reason number 83 why I don't want to tell her about dad. Besides, its not like I'm really at home on Genosha. You can only be spoiled so much." he chuckles lightly. Pietro did enjoy being a Prince, but he's also way to active. He has super speed for crying out loud.

"I don't think you'd need to sick Wanda on her. Wanda always knows, and I always know about Wanda. I wouldn't be surprised if she already knows I'm dating Zatanna."

He does grin as she implies that not a soul has come to even ask her out on a date. "Shame that, now I have nobody to kill if they break your heart." he makes a fake-looking frown.

Polaris has posed:
Lorna rolled her eyes skyward as Pietro groaned and moaned and complained as he always did. It was her older brother after all, and nothing in their family was ever simple. Not even when it came to dating, or perhaps rather, especially when it came to dating. "You didn't answer me on whether or not she knows about who you're related to, or that whole you're a Prince of a tropical island thing." She drawled, crossing her arms as she tilted her head to the side, considering him again.

When it came to his own over protectiveness and her lack of a date, she shook her head and grumbled a huff of a breath. "Yeah, between you and Dad, it's just //so// shocking." She muttered, and made a face. "So when am I going to meet your girlfriend?"

Quicksilver has posed:
Pietro seems to keep his arms crossed now as he looks at Lorna, giving a little 'hmph'. "Well, of course not. I didn't want to...you know, freak her out. The most she knows about me is that I have Super Speed, I'm a mutant, and that I'm with the Avengers." Pietro gives out a sigh, rubbing the back of his head. "Should I tell her?"

"Ugh, I hate it when people say that." Magneto probably says it too. "Well...probably when she gets back from searching for her dad. Apparently he's lost or something."

Polaris has posed:
A concerned look crossed over Lorna's expression as he admitted to not having told his girlfriend anything about who he was beyond mutant and fast really. She stared, aghast that her brother would have dated this woman for months and not have told her anything about //who// he was. "Pietro! You can't do that! Do you have any idea how many guys refuse to date me because of my family? A ton." More like a handful, but drama ran in the family.

"Please tell me you plan to tell her soon, geeze. You can't hide something that from people."

Quicksilver has posed:
Pietro looks at Lorna and he seems to frown. He was /that/ scared of losing her. So...what to do then? Pietro sighs. "Alright, Alright, I'll tell her. I promise."

Pietro is rubbing his arms, a tell tale sign that he?s nervous. "Do you think...that she'd love me less?"

Polaris has posed:
A curious expression, to see Pietro nervous or putting his guard down at all. Lorna shifted closer to her older brother, trying to settle a hand on his shoulder comfortingly. "Hey, if she loves you, truly loves you.. Your family won't matter to her in the least. You can't help who you're related to by blood, right? You're stuck with me and Wanda no matter what." She gave his shoulder a squeeze and sighed.

"If she truly, and I mean, truly deserves you Pietro... it won't make her feel any differently toward you. But you have to be honest and up front about these things. You can't seriously expect to hide who you are from someone you love. If she loves you, then she'll stick around. If she doesn't stick around... well... then maybe it's time Wanda and I get to be the over protective siblings for once."

Quicksilver has posed:
Pietro seemed comforted by Lorna's presence and her comforting nature, something that Pietro didn't see often, but something he enjoyed seeing when he did. He puts his hand on Lorna's own, taking the comfort that was given to him. He takes a deep breath.

"Well, of course I'm stuck with you two. I'd be a shitty brother if I wasn't always watchin' over you both to make sure you stayed safe."

A sigh. "Well..there's only one way to find out." a smile.
