Disclaimer: I only own Erika. Frankie belongs to 100smartass (I think), Max belongs to Dark Angel66, Elle belongs to InuKasumiCaptor, Trent belongs to …someone, and the rest belong to Marvel (duh!).
Some people have hidden (and rarely useful) talents. Erika was one of these. She was a cook, an oddly efficient cook. Before they left after a meal they left their orders with her. Sometimes they offended her, accident or no. Then she made mealtime interesting.
It was usually Pietro who started it. On this particular day, he had taken it into his head to give her surprise hugs at random times. So he was quite astonished to find that she did not object.
Of course, when you take into account the fact that she was presently flipping pancakes for Frankie, Trent and herself, she was obviously too distracted to shoo him away.
"Did you know tha' the boss's brat is huggin' ya 'round th' waist, Sheila?" Pyro queried as he ambled in and sat down to devour his (burnt) Lucky Charms soaked in (boiled) chocolate, strawberry and banana milk (If you question this choice of breakfast, then you do not know the extent of St. John Allerdyce's insanity).
"Do you want no smoochies from Frankie because of burnt pancakes?" Erika replied. Pyro blinked.
"Good point."
Erika turned off the stove and grabbed Pietro's ear. Still tugging his ear ("Owwie! Leggoleggoleggo! Please!"), she dished out the pancakes and then…
"I call his cereal!" Erika claimed, grabbing the bowl. Then she said in a spooky voice, "Let the free-for-all… begin." Having said that, she sat down and released Pietro's ear, whose owner immediately dove into the struggle to reclaim his breakfast.
Magneto stumbled in, groggily blinking his bleary eyes at the co-leaders of his Acolytes sitting calmly and eating and the others in a scuffle over god-knows-whose morning meal.
"Why?" he began banging his head against the wall. "Why couldn't they have matured already?" Frankie handed him a cup of coffee. Erika passed him a small bottle of her sake (rice wine). "Thank you." He poured the sake into the coffee and drank. Then he settled down to his own breakfast.
Yesh, Erika drinks, she can hold her liquor pretty well, actually. I hope you guys don't mind my borrowing your characters '^_^
