X-Men: Black and White
----------------
The next day came quickly, and Logan had recovered almost fully. He had met the rest of the X-Men, and Professor Xavier as well, and he'd even talked Hank and Jean into letting him leave the med lab, as long as he continued going in for check-ups until he was fully healed.
Logan felt much better, now being able to keep on his feet. He was sitting in the kitchen, waiting for Jean, when Jubilee entered the room. The girl stared at him, looking him over, then she smiled and took a seat on the opposite side of the table. Logan raised an eyebrow as she stared at him. He faced the girl, trying to remember her name. "Jubilee right?"
Jubilee nodded with a smile, still staring at him. She snatched an apple from the fruit bowl on the table and took a big bite. "So, what do you do?"
Logan let out a short laugh. This kid was really up front. He liked that. Logan thought he'd play around for a little while, see what the girl did. He shrugged. "What do ya mean?"
Jubilee cocked her head to the side, staring at him harder. "Your powers? What do you do?" She repeated her question.
Logan put his hand to his chin thoughtfully, a tiny smirk edging it's way onto his rugged face. "I do lot's o' things."
Jubilee rolled her eyes and sighed, taking another bite of her apple.
"What do *you* do?" He asked, leaning forward on the table like Jubilee did when she questioned him.
Jubilee grinned proudly. "Fireworks." She smiled, waving her hands in the air. "Want a demonstration?"
Logan chuckled. "Go for it darlin'."
Jubilee hopped off her chair, leaving the half eaten apple on the table. She held out her hands as a little lightshow played at the tips of her fingers. Then she stopped, looking for a reaction from Logan.
He watched her thoughtfully, then cocked his head to the side. "Is that useful in battle?" It was supposed to be more of a joke, but the girl looked kind of offended and he ended up sounding more sarcastic than not.
Jubilee surprised Logan then, when she turned the look of offense around and smiled at him. "It can be...Those weren't even my powerful ones." She winked.
Logan nodded, then turned around when he heard someone coming from behind him. He already knew it was Jean, by the fragrance of her soap.
Jean smiled at Logan, standing beside him with a hand on his shoulder. She looked at Jubilee. "Are you pestering Logan Jubes?" She laughed.
Jubilee rolled her eyes. "No!" She defended herself.
Logan smiled, taking Jean's hand. "Naw, she ain't buggin' me. Jubes was jus' demonstratin' her powers." He winked at the girl.
Jubilee nodded, grabbing the rest of her apple off the table. "I'm goin' ta see if Gambit wants ta play cards or somethin'. 'Sides, he already owes me some cash!" She waved, and took off out the door.
Jean started picking some good out of the refrigerator and turned back, glancing at Logan. "Hey, you want something to eat?"
He just shook his head.
Jean put her hands on her hips and glared at him sternly. "Logan, you haven't been eating much and you need to keep your strength up." She took out a couple of eggs. "I'm making some eggs, and you *will* eat." Jean walked past him, patting him on the head playfully as she grabbed a frying pan.

Remy casually walked into the rec room, where he spotted Rogue flopped down on the couch, flipping through the channels on t.v. He grinned slyly and sneakily sat beside her on the couch, draping an arm over her shoulder. "What you watchin' chere?"
Rogue took Remy's arm, teasing him, and pulling it away from her shoulder. "Keep yer hands tah yo'self Swamp-Rat."
Remy pulled away, a look of mock sadness on his face. "You no like Remy chere?" He pouted.
Rogue laughed. "I'd like yah alot better if yah gimme that remote you snatched." She winked at him.
Remy looked surprised. She had caught him in his own game. He jumped over the couch, with one swift movement, the remote still in hand. "You'll have to catch me first non?" He smiled widely and took off.
Rogue hopped off the couch and took chase after the Cajun. "Get'cher ass back here!" She squeeled through laughter, taking off out of the rec room.
---------------
Logan finally agreed to eat so that Jean would stop bugging him, but once the plate was set infront of him he mainly just pushed the food around, once in a while taking a bite when Jean looked his way.
Scott walked into the kitchen right past Jean and Logan and grabbed a cup from the cupboard, getting himself a glass of water. He didn't like Logan much, although he barely knew the guy. They hadn't really interacted at all, and the most Scott saw him since his arrival was when Professor Xavier introduced him to the team. Scott leaned against the counter as he downed his water. "Hey Logan, you up for a round in the Danger Room?"
Jean mentally sighed. 'Oh great, he's going to pull the macho guy stuff.' she thought dryly, turning to Scott once the offer was out.
Logan just grunted, giving Scott a look like he didn't know who he was messing with. Which was true...Scott had absolutely no clue, he'd never seen Logan in action. Not that Logan had seen Scott in action either, he was unconscious...but still. The playing field was pretty even since neither men had a clue about the other. "Sure, why not. I could use some exercise." He smirked.
Jean gave Logan a dissaproving look. She picked up both their breakfast plates, dropping them off in the sink carelessly. Moving back towards Logan, she put a hand on his shoulder. "This isn't a good idea Logan."
Scott moved in. "Don't worry about it Jean, I'll make it an easy session." he tried to assure her. This was his way of measuring up the new guy, he had to see him at it. Right now Logan was more of a threat to Scott than ever, since he didn't know what the stranger was capable of.
Jean sighed. "Atleast let me monitor you guys through the control tower."
Logan smiled now that Jean had given in. During his little tour after he met the team, he was a bit anxious to be able to use the infamous Danger Room.
Scott smiled. "Sure." He looked from Logan to Jean. "You better get him a uniform."
Logan stood carefully, trying not to show any weakness though he was still in some pain from the wounds on his sides. Right now his middle was wrapped in bandages to help the wounds close even more, but he hoped Jean might've forgotten about that. Logan looked at Jean questioningly. "Uniform?"
She smiled, grabbing Logan's arm. "Come on." She dragged him out of the kitchen, calling back to Scott. "We'll meet you in the Danger Room."
