Early bird gets the bacon ((open))

[Colossus]

Colossus continued to furiously scrub his hands. Some of the paint had dried hours ago and was rather stubborn to get off at times. As he continued to work the soap and hot water across his large fingers he returned greetings to his classmates.

"Greetings Scott and Katya," he said with an exhausted smile, "Da comrade. I have been painting again, nothing special though really. Just something inspired by current events." With that he looked over his shoulder at the newest person for him to meeting.

"Hello Penny, I am Piotr Rasputin, I apologize but my hands are not shakeable at the moment."

[Cyclops]

He supposed it was good everyone was getting up but it made him wonder how long they'd been standing here talking. it bad been dark when they started...now? well he wasn't completly sure, it might have been light...but so far as only the four of them were up at the moment he was willing to bet that they were the only four who were willing to crawl out of bed at this hour...that is if pete did actually og ot bed last night.

Scott also noticed this would be a great oppituntity to extend the list of people who were coming out on their trip. It might be good to ask, after all he came out last time "Hey Pete...do you fancy coming out some time soon? we were just talking about it"
