Synopsis: Sam and Shannon talk about what could be learned from the danger room session with Kurt.
Cast of Characters: Nightingale, Cannonball




Nightingale has posed:
     What a night. That had to be one of the most intense danger room sessions Shannon had ever participated in--and one of the most haunting to date. Still, that's all it was. A simulation. And it had all turned out alright in the end. Still dressed in her 'bumblebees', with her hair pinned up tightly at the back of her head in a bun, she limps into the kitchen, rolling both her shoulders, holding her left side, and definitely favoring her right leg. She makes a beeline for the fridge, seeking out any sweets lingering within....

Cannonball has posed:
Samuel Guthrie comes walking in form the back yard. the young man is wearing cut off shorts and a t-shirt looks like he has been out for a run this evening. He looks over, and says "Hey there grab me a water?" He asks not seeing her limp yet.

Nightingale has posed:
     "You got it, big brother." Shannon grabs a water for Sam, and a root beer for herself, biting back a groan as she hip-bumps the refrigerator door shut. She limps on over to him, holding out the water with a smile. "Have a good run there?"

Cannonball has posed:
Samuel Guthrie nods, and says "Decent yea, Ah have to make sure I head out for one every so often, get plenty of exercise but if Ah in a hurry and can Ah blast over running so need to make sure I keep my speed up this way too." He says and opens his water taking a long swig "How you?" he says after

Nightingale has posed:
Shannon rolls her shoulders a little bit, wincing, but grinning somewhat ruefully at Sam. She uncaps her root beer, raises it in salute, and knocks back a good swig of the stuff. "Rough session in the danger room, nothing a good hot shower won't cure at least in my case and Pixie's. I hope Bean gets checked out in the medbay, though, he took it the worst out of all of us. And nobody would let me help them this time." She shrugs lightly, and downs a bit more root beer. "At least we wound up with top marks from Kurt on this one. He pulled a 'no-win' on us."

Cannonball has posed:
Samuel Guthrie hmms and says "Oh and how bad was he hurt safe guards should have kept it from being to serious." He asks, a brow raised and will have to look it up in the records

Nightingale has posed:
     "Not too badly, I don't think, but he wouldn't let me check. I mean, he took on about half an armored platoon just to make sure Megan and I could get out of there safely. Me, I got shot a few times. Now she indicates both shoulders, her left ribs, and the outside of her right thigh. "There were safeguards or we'd have caught it worse. It felt more like 'this hurts me more than it hurts you but you need to learn'."

Cannonball has posed:
Samuel Guthrie nods his head a bit to this and says "Well, Ah am sure there is a reason, and Ah am also sure Sam is ok. so what did you learn from it?

Nightingale has posed:
     What Shannon wanted to say was 'that it ripped my heart out to see Bean cut down'. What actually came out of her mouth was more like, "Sometimes you have no choice but to live and fight another day. Otherwise, if your teammates fall, their loss would be for nothing."

Cannonball has posed:
Samuel Guthrie nods hsi head a bit and says "Well yea, but it is not the same, and Ah know you know it, but it is good to have some idea of it still

Nightingale has posed:
     "How is it not the same, then?" Shannon's eyebrows raise, and she knocks back a little more root beer. Soda is as soda does, and she covers her mouth politely, with a soft giggle. "Excuse me."

Cannonball has posed:
Samuel Guthrie looks to her, and says "You know he will be back in there, that he maybe hurt a bit but he will be ok. In the field you don't know that, so the emotions are different, but even if the field you see them fall unless your close enough to see how bad it really is you don't know how hurt they really are.

Nightingale has posed:
Shannon shivers visibly. "The emotions are still pretty strong. Stronger than I expected. It stung seeing Kurt cut down. It stung when Megan took a couple shots. But when Bean put himself in harm's way for us all... if that had been for real I'd be a complete wreck right now."

Cannonball has posed:
Samuel Guthrie looks to her, and says "You know thinking about you as a little sister makes it harder than the rest of the kids to keep my mouth shut on relationship advice, but Ah am keeping it shut on that. Well remember if it is me, given a few minutes chances seem good I will get back up.

Nightingale has posed:
     "Right, because you've got such a thick skull." Chortling, Shannon reaches over and lightly raps her knuckles against Sam's forehead. "Hmmm, I don't know, is it hollow or solid up there?"

Cannonball has posed:
Samuel Guthrie chuckles a bit and says "Must run in the family as he reaches over and noggies her on the top of the head playfully. "So whats your plan now?

Nightingale has posed:
     "Ack!" Shannon bursts out laughing, but really doesn't try too hard to escape the noogies. It felt nice to just joke around a little bit, tease and play and just have a little fun. How long had it been since she'd done that? "I don't know... what kind of plans were you wondering about?"

Cannonball has posed:
Samuel Guthrie says, "Not sure, but seems we have both did the work out thing, thought maybe do the movie thing, maybe find a classic you aint seen... Rocky horror picture show?"

Nightingale has posed:
Shannon just grins wide, and bursts out into song. "Science fiction double feature, Doctor X will build a creatureeeeeeee!!" Yep. She'd seen that one. The question was, how many times, and was it ever with a full cast in a theater?

Cannonball has posed:
Samuel Guthrie hmms and says "Ok, how about We're on a mission from God. There are 106 miles to Chicago, we have a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses" He does a quote for her, and sees if she gets this one.

Nightingale has posed:
Shannon just gives Sam a blank look, lofting her left eyebrow. "Say wha...?" Uh-oh. She had a feeling that whatever movie that quote came from, she was likely to wind up watching it next.

Cannonball has posed:
Samuel Guthrie smirks and says "Ok Blues Brothers it is, and don't worry there is good music in it as well." He will tell her "So, shower, then movie?"

Nightingale has posed:
Shannon nods and chuckles, cracking her neck slightly. "Oh yeah. And no skimping on the snacks for either of us tonight, I don't think. Popcorn, soda, 'ants on a log'..." She cracks her knuckles as well, and polishes off the rest of her root beer.

Cannonball has posed:
Samuel Guthrie smiles and says "Ok, see ya in the rec room in 45 minutes?" He will ask her, giving a judgement on time for prep and showers

Nightingale has posed:
Shannon nods, and smiles wide. "Sounds good to me. Shower would probably do me a world of good right about now." She does the 'sniff test', and wrinkles her nose. "Probably save your olfactory senses, too."

Cannonball has posed:
Samuel Guthrie chuckles and says "Probably both of us." He grins and says "Besides, Ah wager you want to be in something a bit more comfy than your uniform." He will tell her, as he moves to head to change.
