My finals are due on Monday!!!!!! Help me, St. Jude!!!!
Pop Quiz! If anyone can tell me what St. Jude is the patron of, I'll give you special mention points!
I don't own X-men, Walmart, or anything else of monetary value, except the lovely pics of---Dammit, Rogue, bring those baaaaaaccccckkkk!!!
Nothing but love to my kick ass beta, red_angel_wings, and my sigma, Tokyobabe2040.
Oh, and here's another quote from Ivan Alias's archive:
"I'd guess I'd feel hostile too, if I had two X chromosomes." Calvin, from Calvin and Hobbes
Chap: Working like a Dog
"You know, I always thought that if I was handcuffed to a chick, I'd be having a good time."
"Oh please, spare me," Tabby groaned. She straightened up from her bent position, wincing at the kink in her back. "The last time I was handcuffed to a chic"---she stopped, and actually blushed.
Sam was staring at her in consternation. "Oh hell, no. You cannot just leave it like that. What happened?!"
"Wouldn't you like to know," she huffed. "And can't you scrub any faster?"
"I'm scrubbing as fast as I can!" Both the disgruntled teens were working outside the mansion in the fountain, trying to clean out the gunk that had baked onto it from the broohah two nights ago.
But the really fun part? The professor had decided that the fastest way to end the hostilities was to make them all spend time together, so they could talk. And what better way to make people who had done despicable things to each other stay together than handcuffing them to a person of the opposite sex?
The pairings were Sam and Tabby, Rahne and Roberto, Jean and Scott, Ray and Jubilee, Amara and Bobby. All of them were on outside repair for the major damages done to the house and grounds. Kitty, and Rogue had no partners at that particular moment in time, and so were working on rebuilding Scott's room. (Cyclops had the awful suspicion that he'd be sleeping in a bright pink room by the end of the day. 'Damn girls,' he thought. Jean just glared at him, catching the thought. He shuddered. 'Brrrr.')
Boom Boom was half tempted just to blow the damn waterworks sky-high. She turned from the fountain pool they were both scrubbing out and shouted to the house, "Charles Xavier, you s.o.b! I don't even live here!! Why'd you tie me up with a frickin' turtle!?"
"Tabitha!!! Watch your language! Or would you rather pay for the damages done?!" Storm shouted. She was still furious about the damage done to her rosebushes.
"Yeah, yeah," Tabby muttered. "You get out here in the hot sun, scrub the same damn spot for four frickin' hours, then we'll"---
KRRAAAC—KOOOMMM!!!
Rain clouds formed and began pouring out all over Tabby and Sam. "Hey, hey, hey!! Watch where you're raining!!" Sam shouted. Suddenly he noticed what the rain was doing to Tabby's white t-shirt. With a happy grin, he called out, "Never mind!!!"

(Somewhere in Tia-Ping, China)
Spyke glared at the man across from him. Both of them were sitting in a seedy hotel on the outskirts of the city, playing poker. Evan was trying to win back the school's mini-copter. Apparently someone, (not naming names, mind you,) had stolen his only ride home and sold it on the black market.
He sighed. That was the last time he's trust those fortune cookie 'Learn Chinese' translations.

(somewhere in New Jersey)
The corrections officer rolled his eyes as he entered the cell room. Those damn kids......"Okay boys, you still have your one phone call. Here's your quarter."
Remy snorted from the other side of the prison bars, deftly catching the coin in midair. He and Kurt had been caught by the Jersey police and taken to their station for reckless driving. (not to mention a whopping speed ticket for going eighty miles over the 35 mph speed limit in a Wal-Mart parking lot.) The boys had spent the last two days hiding out in the retaining cell. Kurt's idea, not Remy's.
Kurt had been telling jokes to pass the time, driving everyone in the cells nuts. Needless to say, the prisoners were eager for him to go.
"For god's sake, call your parents! Whatever the hell you guys were running from, it can't have been that bad," Hairy Joe said pleadingly. He was seconded by Crazy Larry, the Russian roulette champion, and "Buggs" Molly. (don't ask.) "You boys really need to go home."
"Yeah," said Buggs. "Your lady, she'll forgive you."
"Yeah, and then you can go home," Crazy nodded frantically.
"You don't know Kitty," Kurt replied.
"You shouldn't worry so much," Gambit said, shrugging. "Rogue'll take it fine, she'll help calm Kitty down."
"Yeah, after she drains you dry for a month," Kurt answered sweetly.
Remy frowned. "Maybe we should wait another day or two."
"Oh, good! Then I can tell these guys about that guy from Nantucket," said Kurt.
Hairy, Crazy and Buggs all shouted out, "NNNOOOOOO!!!!!!"

Sorry, sorry, sorry that its so short, but I have to go study!!!!!! Wish me luck on my finals, y'all! (Oddly enough, I'm not from the south, that y'all just came out on its own.)
Review response time!!!! Yay!!
Dark Jaded Rose: yahoo!! You came to review me!! I'm so happy that you liked it. Hope this one's good for you too!
KittKatt001: you saw Johnny Dep--- no wait, you said you were kidding. Daggonit, girl, don't do that sort of thing to me!!! I love Johnny Depp! Sorry its not a long chap, but the next one will be twice as long to make up for it!!
Dragonic Soul: really? Why'd you change it, Millenium Mutant sounded so cool. But this name rocks too, so I guess its all good. And by all means, tell your friend. I love spreading Bobby torture too.
SickmindedSucker: man, I'm so glad to hear from you. I thought you didn't like my stuff anymore. I almost cried. (sniffle) but hey, I like the body toupee idea. I might do a little something with it. (wink!) and poor you! Weeks without a fic or computer! I'd go nuts if it was me. Glad you're back online.
Anon: as for what happened to me, well, I'm in tae kwon do. I was breaking four boards to practice for my 2nd degree black belt when I jammed all three joints of my right leg. Ankle, knee and hip, really screwing up my cyotic nerve. But I've mostly recovered now, no crutches needed anymore!! Thanks for asking about me, I appreciate it.
Ivan Alias: that was perfect, I looked it up. I have everything bill waterson ever put out for calvin and hobbes, and you nailed it right on. I'm kind of mad I didn't think of it first.
Aqueous: thanks for reviewing me, man, it makes my day. And hey! I told everybody beforehand that I so cannot do sound fx. But thanks for the correction, I'll go fix it soon.
The Uncanny R-man: thank you so much for your offer! I might take you up on it.
Thanks to everyone who reviewed!
