    Summary

    -

    What have the X-Men become, leaving behind their own like that? When did they get so damn righteous about where people came from and what was in their pasts? And why did that only seem to apply to people like Gambit?

    It’s de eyes, mon ami, Remy had said to him once. Dey make people uncomfortable when dey can’t see demselves reflected back. Even mutants.

    Especially mutants. Gambit was a cast off from a group of cast offs. Logan was already morbidly familiar with how lonely that felt. How cold that can be.

     

    [Gambit returns to the X-Men, post Antarctica.]

    Summary

    “Mebbe you do dis for Cyclops, he stop givin’ ya such an ‘ard time,” Remy manages to say even as he feels the pull of sleep.
    Logan pauses at his doorway, his figure lit by the soft glow of a candle in the hallway.

    “Nah,” he replies quietly. “It’s special treatment. Can’t have ‘im getting big-headed about it.”

    Summary

    Frankie Stein is new to this whole being alive thing. At fifteen days old, they hardly know themself, but they certainly don't know social conventions. Starting at a new school in the middle of first quarter is proving to be a challenge.

    Jackson Jekyll has had sixteen years of life, and he still feels just as new to it. When it comes to him or Holt, he knows who the students of Monster High prefer to spend their time with. He still feels new at figuring out how to get along with Holt, and after being diagnosed with dissociative identity disorder over the summer, he feels like he's drowning.

    They find themselves through finding each other.

    Summary

    Zak expects for his reflection to sneer at him, or reach through the mirror and choke him, but nothing happens. It's just his reflection — the same that it is every single day.

    He's still Zak.

    (Isn't he?)
