A. DISCOVERY - CLOSED TO ROGUE, BACKDATED TO OCT 5TH
[Morph was in Archangel's winged form, on the search for the missing Peter by air, taking advantage of the good eyesight that came along with it to check out alleys and rooftops. That was when they first spotted it - something new just outside of Aldrip, a large building that looked achingly familiar the closer they came to it. It nagged at them, enough that once they finished checking that part of the city, Morph only briefly landed on a rooftop before winging it in that direction.

What they saw nearly made them forget to flap their wings. The mansion was unmistakable, looking for all the world like a someone had scooped it up and dropped it there. Morph circled around it once, then landed in the front yard, staring up at the building in sheer disbelief as they shifted back to their regular form. The last time they had seen the mansion, it was a demolished, scorched ruin. Morph had shared a beer with Logan right there on the lawn while waiting for the fires to die down. But this mansion wasn't damaged in the slightest - it could've come from the day before the Prime Sentinels attacked, or any of the more peaceful days before that point.

After a long moment, they finally fish out their tablet to write a quick text to Rogue.]


hey, leave the city and fly southeast, right now.
no one's dying but you NEED to see this.


B. OPEN HOUSE
[After the announcement made on the network, the mansion's been left open for the Chosen to wander into. For anyone interested a bright yellow sign has been posted with an arrow pointing towards the elevator, and another sign inside the elevator letting guests know which floor will leave them outside the Danger Room.

The rest of the mansion's doors are unlocked, left open for anyone to wander around as they wish. There's a few locations that might be of interest, including a pool and a basketball court outside. The first floor has a sizeable library and a living room with a big-screen CRT and a VCR, along with a shelf full of VHS tapes. The second basement, above the one containing the Danger Room, has its own gym and locker rooms, along with some laboratory space that's going unused.

The only places that are semi off-limits are the office on the first floor and the bedrooms on the second floor. Start rifling around in either area and chances are that one of the new residents will find you doing it, unless they're sufficiently distracted elsewhere. The mansion will also get locked back up around 10 PM each night, so no late night visits unless you ask about it!]



C. WILDCARD
[Morph can be found pretty much anywhere on the mansion grounds if you need to talk to them!]

I... Yeah, it's getting colder out, and I need to stay somewhere, so...

[... she's so confused. They don't hold a grudge???]

And I, uh. I'd trust this place more than whatever place this city wants to give us.

[... she... slowly starts following Morph up those stairs to check out those rooms after all.]

[She follows through, before just... looking through the rooms for an empty one.]

... Woah. I've never slept in a big Western bed like these before... They're kind of huge.

[Well, to be fair, anything's big when you compare it to a kid's futon.]

No worries there... It's not like I know how to cook anyway.

[She's trying to figure out if she could move any of this... well, of course she could, but still. It seems so big.]

I guess I'll just... grab whatever's easy or pre-made. There's a microwave, right? I can use that.

Got it... That'll be a welcome change.

[She's nodding... then looking at the decorations, and looking around.]

... You know, I could probably get out these windows to help hang stuff from here.
