Library, Sunday

[genesishero]

Evan was at least a little bit concerned about the machines that were popping up through the town, and the fact that nobody seemed to be doing anything about the fact that there was a machine selling guns in the lobby of the dorms. Who did he have to talk to about that? Even the Jean Grey School didn't condone weapons amongst the student body, after all.

But for now, he had a library shift to attend to, and he was going to spend it trying to be productive, pulling out books on things like self-defense and gun safety. If people were going to have easy, cheap access to weapons like those, he figured he could at least make certain they knew what they were doing so that they could keep them responsibly.

Some of the books were kind of powdery, though. There were some puffy balls of sugar that had decided that they wanted to help out. And if they wanted to be helpful, Evan was hardly going to turn them away.

Evan took note of that hesitation, and then nodded a little, smiling down at her hand. It was a nice gesture. Comforting, really. Not many people were comfortable with that sort of thing.

It reminded him a little bit of home.

"I'll happily listen," he replied. "The number of people who offer me wisdom for my own sake is... kind of small."

Fantomex and Logan weren't great for that sort of thing, not helped along by the fact that Fantomex had been kind of brutally killed, and all. Yeul was good for it, though, and Wade, even if he was a little crazy. Evan would he happy to add Gert to that list, too.

Gert smiled faintly. "Good, because so's the list of people who'll put up with it from me," she said. Other people would tolerate it, but few people would really listen, instead of just tuning her out. "Deal."
