Second Floor common room

After the Into the Black meeting, Rogue drops into the second floor common room couch. She sighs and starts flipping through channels; the disappearance and rumored murder of Kitty has her very down.

She looks like she wouldn't mind company.

[[Come play with me! And if anyone wants to interrogate Rogue about the bit in the paper ~~damn you Beka and Pheebs!~~ well, she can't really stop you, now can she?]]

Veronica frowns.

"What do you mean?" she asks, genuinely confused.

[ooc: that is fine]

Rogue takes a deep breath. "I--" She closes her eyes. "I'm a mutant. My skin, it hurts people. It's not somethin' I like to talk about, but you seem like the type that wouldn't care." She sighs.

Veronica smiles.

"Of course I don't care. I mean, I care if it causes you a problem, but it doesn't make a difference to me. We don't have to talk about it if you don't want to. And I'll keep it to myself."

"Thanks. I appreciate that. It kinda sucks when everyone's afraid you're gonna kill 'em with a touch." She gives V a small smile. "So now you understand the gloves, huh? Though I think they make me look mysterious."

Veronica glances at Rogue's hands.

"You know? I have to admit, I never really paid attention. Some detective I'm going to be."

She smiles.

"I'm not afraid of much ~~just Bel & his fireballs~~. I trust you."

"I guess that's comfortin'. It's usually the first think people notice, it being so different and all." Rogue raises a brow, a very Logan-like movement, if V catches it. "I think you'll be a fine detective. Rumor has it you already are."

Veronica shrugs.

"So," she says, lowering her voice. "What exactly is the deal with you and that Logan guy?"

Rogue looks almost like a deer in the headlights for a moment, then recovers quickly. She shrugs non-commitally. "You read the paper." She looks away, biting her lip. Clearly there's something she's not telling.

Veronica smiles and tilts her head.

"Yeah. I also have eyes and ears," she teases.

"Oh, yeah, those." She looks down at her hands. "I'm not going to be able to get away with lyin' here, am I?" Rogue looks back up at Veronica.

Veronica chuckles.

"I'm not going to force you to tell me anything. I'm just teasing you a little."

[ooc: going to bed - finally!]

"Well, I'll admit, he's a little more than a guardian. He and I are ... close," she says with a smile.

[[OOC: night!]]

"Well, good," Veronica says.

"Listen, I need to get going. If you need to talk at all about the Kitty thing, I'm around, okay? I went through that a few years ago."
