[He doesn't have a decent response to that bit about his power- he hasn't had it for very long, comparatively - barely a year now - but it still feels like he's always had it- like he'd only started to be the person he is now once he got it. He'd always been invisible without it, and now it's like he's falling back into bad habits. His confidence is shot.]

...Mm. Supplies- I can help with that. Maybe I could go dig around, see what's out there to find.

[Yesterday had been pretty difficult for Ororo. Losing access to her powers was a bit like going deaf. Her powers have always been an extension of her, and though she's just told Billy that he shouldn't define himself by his mutation, she had to remind herself of that a lot. She can only imagine how it is for Billy, someone as young and seemingly eager to grow into his powers as he is.]

Take Teddy with you, all right? It's not safe to out there alone. [But then her face turns serious.] And please, do not wander too far, if they are serious about the bomb it wouldn't be wise to be too far from the teleporters in case we need to evacuate immediately.

With Teddy hurt the way he is, I wouldn't really want to go that far out, anyway. Honestly, I'd go out on my own or with somebody else, but he'd probably yell at me if I tried.

[calmbeforethe]

Teddy, hurt? [This is news to Ororo, and that makes her feel bad; she should be keeping closer tabs on Billy and Teddy.] How badly is he hurt? Has no one seen to him, yet?

[selfhelp]

No, it's... not bad. He was flying when we lost our powers, so he ended up falling... he landed on his wrist, so it's pretty badly sprained. It just needed a wrap, so he's okay.

[He offers up the faintest smile.]

He's just not used to having injuries. Healing factor and all.

[calmbeforethe]

[Ororo mirrors that smile with a sympathetic one of her own, though it doesn't last long. She sighs a little, looks in the direction of the hospital.]

It takes some adjusting, being without powers. Please, be careful. Without a healing factor, the virus is even more of a threat. [She doesn't want to see more end up like Logan, after all.]

[selfhelp]

Well, there's nothing wrong with our legs, so I think we can manage an escape if we get into trouble. We'll definitely be careful, though... neither of us want to get bitten.

[It's a pretty major concern right now, especially when neither of them have any real way of defending themselves if they get attacked. But neither of them want to up and run away, either.]

[calmbeforethe]

[Ororo nods.]

That's all I need to hear. Hopefully this will all wind down soon, with research for the cure underway. Until then, perhaps you should look into keeping a radio on your person? [It's the only reliable means of communication, after all.]

[selfhelp]

Wouldn't the journal work just as well? I mean, I don't think we have that many radios to spare.
