[Life was good.

It'd been a month and ten days (Logan had counted) since he'd been brought back to the X-Mansion. A month and ten days since he'd left the Black Tide. And the best part? Aside from leaving that hell hole, that is? Talia was with him. Someone who knew and understood just what he'd gone through on that boat. Charles hadn't doubted him; he would've known right away if he was lying. That didn't make it any easier to believe. And that was just fine with him.

If he didn't have to think about that stupid boat again, it'd be too soon.

Settling into life at the mansion was easy enough. Getting an ID and papers for Talia was easy enough. And even better, she fit like a glove at the school. It was more than Logan could ask for.

It wasn't perfect. Nothing ever was. But it was good. And that was enough.]

[This would've been a lot easier to bear if Talia were coming along. But, Logan was a big boy and could tolerate an afternoon with the kidlets. At least he liked of them. That was always a plus.

For the moment anyway, Scott and the kids are forgotten and Talia's got his full attention. When they part, Logan manages something like a sincere smile and he nods.]

I know. But if you need me. [He tapped his temple. All she had to do was call and he'd come runnin'.]

All right, Boy Scout. Let's get goin' before the Professor takes your badges away.

o7 More than understandable!

[Talia doesn't much enjoy the thought of letting Logan out of her sight. She's lost more than she can put into words and the one that understands it best is the one that went through it with her.

Still, she knows that he has his duties just as she did... as she does now. She laughs softly as he taps his temple, tickling her emotions across his with a tender smile.]

I know... now get out of here.

[She steps back to clear the doorway for him, moving to gather what she'll need for class.]

[Just chilling over here by the door... He sees a few students headed towards the front down the hall. One of them really needed a belt, and with that thought, Scott turns back towards the room to get a look at Logan. Yup, just as he thought.]

We will be in public, so try to look presentable.

[He turns back around to leaning on the doorframe in the hall.]

If that's even possible.

[It wasn't exactly directed at Logan, but Scott definitely didn't say it quietly enough for it to be just to himself. Hopefully Talia doesn't take it poorly - surely they're both aware of the feral hobbit she's living with and his preferred wardrobe.]

[heybub]

I'll see ya, babe.

[Logan ignores Scott. He thinks he looks just fine. They want him to go on this stupid field trip, he'll go lookin' like mountain cave man that he is. He runs a hand through his hair and smooths it down a little. Just a little. Ain't no taming the rest of that mane.]

C'mon, Scott, before you get left behind. Can't kiss up to Professor standin' in the hallway.
