Work As Usual

[doctor-jeangrey.livejournal.com]

Jean Grey sat at what she considered her 'desk', looking over the notes she'd jotted down after her last session with Sam. Working as usual. Frowning, she reached up, pressing the fingers of her right hand against her temple. Her head was beginning to throb and she knew that it was because she hadn't ventured far from the med lab and honestly she'd been so wrapped up in taking care of Sam that she'd hardly given herself a thought.

It was better that way though. If she kept busy she wouldn't have to think of... Anything else. Of Scott, the Professor, the school and the students.... And not of Logan either. Busy was good.

Lowering her hand, her eyebrows raised slightly, sensing the presence of one of the crew behind her. "You know," she started, her voice soft - keeping her back to the person in question. "It's not really polite to not announce yourself." She's not scolding - it's more... Like a reminder.

Jono nodded. Don' surprise me. Might be 'cause I'm pretty well shielded, too. Otherwise, get a massive bloody headache offa Stacy. And while Brainy might be able to figure out a painkiller for him to take, it's just as easy to avoid needing it. An' yeah, she probably does. Reckons she's protectin' us or summat.

Jean frowned again. She knew her own blocks weren't up to where they were suppose to be, though... It could be contributed to her working a lot with Sam and just the general stress of finding out she was now on a space ship away from all the people she loved.

"I suppose that could be it...." She paused, feeling a bit self conscious. "Do you think... That maybe you could show me some of the things I taught you?"

Jono tilted his head, watching her for a moment. Well, ain't jus' you what taught me. Me main teacher fer a while was Emma Frost. You--my you--an' the Professor took over after I left fer the X-Men. He reached up, rubbing the back of his head. Suppose couldn' hurt to try, at least.

"Thank you," Jean smiled. She normally didn't like to admit she needed help with her powers, and well considering that Charles wasn't there to help her if and when she needed some extra help.... Any help was better than the help she was getting now, which was nothing.

The corners of his eyes turned upwards again. Don' thank me yet. I ain't done anythin'.

"I know," Jean chuckles, glad that Jono had wandered by. "But it's nice that you're willing to try... Sometime."
