It was Friday evening and Scott was busy...well doing nothing really, he'd had a rather intense training session on last period and he'd decided to rest a little bit before he did anything, it seemed fairly quiet for the moment with the other students doing their own thing and for the moment the mutant was alone. He wore a pair of comfortable grey sweat pants with a black shirt that had a red X logo with a circle around it, his feet were bare which made him glad that the mansion was clean and finally he topped it off with the red glasses that he had to use, it made everything in the room have a red hue but he had been getting better recently at deciphering which colours were what but some he wasn't able to tell just yet, for instance blue and green or red and orange.
On the tv was...well he was only half paying attention to it, it was some sort of low budget reality show which was more or less just a copy of big brother with a few twists thrown in. Letting out a sigh he officially decided he was bored and scratched his head, what was there to do?

Kitten runs in in all fours looking around the rec room and spotted Scott and then ran up to him then stared up to him with grin on her face. she had this habit of acting just like the cats she had lived but other wises she was pretty friendly sometimes. The girl at moment was wearing a a white dress " hello me is Kathy who are you " she didn't know many of the students here that well even though she has been here five months she forgets names very easily.

Scott raised an eyebrow as a small person...who appeared to have a physical mutation but due to the fact that they were running he couldn't tell extactly what it was except it was some sort of animal...when she stopped and ran towards him with a smile the first thing that hit him was how small she was...it made it hard to tell how young she was but he assumed like most of the students she was in her teens. As if you didn't have enough to deal with your body going wacko on you was just another to add to the list.
He'd never met her before so her question of who he was....whilst expected also caught him off guard a bit. He was still new at the whole...meeting new people thing. It was better if he met then during training...then he could get to know them on a more professional basis first, but that option was taken away from him, he smiled at the girl nervously and said Um...hi, I'm Scott...Scott Summers." He then paused for a moment before realising he should really ask something else....he didn't want to seem rude and the only thing worse then awkward small talk was awkward no-talk "Did....you want to join me? I don't think we've met before, are you new here?"

A Friday night in? Jean hadn't really planned on one, but she didn't even make plans to prevent it from happening either. It wasn't that late and the night could still be saved. There was always the options of going to the movies or just going out to get a bite to eat. Anything to get out the house. Until then, Jean decided to kill a little time with some tv until she could come up with a plan for the evening.
After a shower, Jean slipped into some lounging clothes. A spaghetti strapped white shirt with a green X logo on her chest, green short shorts and some green socks and her red strands tied back with a green hair scrunchy. Making her down to the Rec Room, Jean was glad that there was already a couple people in there. Company was always a good thing and just who was in there? Well her fellow X-man, the cute 'ole boyscout Scott Summers, who she had known since she was at the mansion. The other person, who she knew as Kitten had only been at the school for a few months now and although Jean didn't know that much about her personally, she found the catgirl to be very adorable and sweet.
"I'm not interrupting anything am I? I mean, really Scott, the Rec Room is not really the best place to bring your dates" Jean teased giving the young man a grin as she walked over to the couch, taking a seat next to him. "Relax, I'm just kidding. How you doing tonight, Slim? Looking cute as always" she asked giving him a light nudge in the arm and then turned to Kitten with a smile. "And how are you doing, Kathy? "

The sits there in front of Scott and tinted her head little bit. The girl usually hardly spoke to anyone. She saw that he was pretty nervous when he spoke ther. She then looked up towards his question and the smiled little " yes Kitten does want to join and yes sir me is " She looked towards Jean and then smiled little and giggled at her joke being her being Scott's date " me is good Ms. Gray .." she knew Jean because she did meet her. She didn't know her that well because of the short them of being here.

When Jean walked in Scott blinked and was about to smile and offer a greeting when she started to talk and he suddenly became flustered, turning a bright shade of red as he begun to splutter "Oh...no...this isn't a...uh..." then he suddenly realised she was teasing him and itched the back of his head. When she said he looked cute strangely enough he surprised himself by feeling a tiny bit annoyed, not by the fact that what she said was out of line, in fact he was unbelievably flattered...he just didn't know if it was meant any way or if it was just one of those things people said. What he needed was another subject...a change so that he could keep himself focused. Then he suddenly remembered, the pair had been chosen to train the new X-men team. "Yeah...good one Jean...so I hear you're co-training the new team with me...that's good. I could use some help I'm sure..." he looked to the cat girl, she was new...or at least he'd not seen her, perhaps she would be put on the team...or already had. "Say...are you on our team? I've not properly looked at who is yet...The New Mutants?"

"Yes, you heard right. I stepped down from the X-men to help you with the new recruits and to help the Professor and Mr. Lehnsherr here at the school. I think I'm better here at the school than out on the field. And I know you could use my help. We always get better results when we do things together," Jean smiled back. There was a subtle hint in her response...then again she had been dropping hints to Scott that she was interested in him since she had arrived at the institute, but it was like he was oblivious to them or something. Though she could easily read his mind and get an answer about how he felt about her, she like the professor made it a rule to never enter a person's mind unless it was necessary.
"Yes, if I can recall, I believe she is one of our new recruits, am I correct Kathy?

Gambit walked into the room munching on an apple and looked between the two ladies and the shade wearing man. Gambit was dressed like any normal teen or young adult and was just enjoying the day. "Bonjour mes amies! Wha' ya be doin' inside on such a magnifique nigh' wit' two lovely ladies?" Gambit grinned in his devilishly teasing way. He took a bite out of the apple his eyes twinkling with amusement.

Cyclops smiled when Jean said they worked well, it was true they worked well together and she could correct him if he made an illadvised or risky decision. For some reason he took her advice in to consideration on a lot of decisions. He did spot a subtle tone in the way she talked..but his main problem was working out how serious she was, would he be inerested? well...it wasn't as if it mattered, after all he was the Cyclops...the dude who couldn't look at anyone. Even had to put these stupid glasses on when he slept. He was about to respond when another guy entered the room. He seemed normal enough, munching on an apple...but one thing that Scott noticed was the eyes...and he wandered what power the guy had, maybe he had the same power Scott did...maybe he could teach him control. When he spoke Scott was surprised...was he French or something? shrugging he said "Nothing to do really man, not like I've got much cash anyhow. Not exactly handing part time jobs out to people like us"

Jean's attention turned to the new arrival in the room and smiled widely. "Hi there Remy" she smiled giving him a small wave. Yes, she knew he was...she just about everyone that enrolled at the mansion, even if they didn't know her. One of the perks of being the Professor's assistant. Gosh, Remy Lebeau. There was no denying the guy had looks and that accent and his charm was a heart melter.
"Oh come on, Scott. You don't need cash to still have fun. Sometimes you have to make your own entertainment. Am I right, Mr. Cajun? Jean smiled back as she playfully poked Scott in his shoulder.

Ok, well he supposed she was right...he didn't really need much cash, esspecially living here...but he'd occasionally want to go in to town and go shopping or something, for that he really did need a part time job, working in a shop or something like that...but not many people were fans of the sun glasses look but at least he didn't have it as bad as people who had physical mutations...looking like a rock monster was sure to lower job getting prospects.
He glanced back to Remy and suddenly realised the room was slowly filling, perhaps this would be the conversation hub of the house for tonight with random students wondering in for a chit chat with the others. Nodding to Remy he said "Well come on in...there's always plenty of room for more in here
