video UN: Polaris

[ Tired. That's the best way to describe how Lorna currently looks. Tired and out of it. The video feed comes on to show her sitting with her legs dangling off the edge of her bed. For a few seconds she doesn't say anything, she just kicks her boots against the back of the bed as she tries to resist the compulsion. After the seconds drag on to a frustrating degree she pulls out one of the military knives she's so keen to play with and starts to toss it up. Green mist swirls around her hands as she causes it to stop just before it'd have landed into her own thigh. It's a game. Toss it up, let it fall down, stop it with her powers just before it's too late.

Or maybe don't.

She really doesn't want to say what this compulsion is pushing her towards. Not at all. ]


I brought down a plane with innocent people on it just to kill one person. I ripped it apart while it was in the sky and I bet nobody on board even knew what was happening. [ She looks at the camera directly. ] The entire world caught on fire after that. It all went to hell but I don't know if I'd take that back if I could. That's the messed up part. He needed to die and there wasn't another way. Nobody else was going to step up and do it. [ Is that a hint of bitterness in her tone? You bet it is. There's a lot of feelings about that she's never discussed or even brought up and that builds up. ]

He had to be taken out for my people to be safe. [ And she cuts the feed off there just as her knife comes back down to her thigh. ]

Yeah, I know. But... I believe in Mom.

Yeah. It's... what happened is a really complex thing. But they blame her for a really bad thing that happened.

I know that's a lie.

No one is better alone.

I won’t. I mean I can’t. We’ve all done things we’ve regretted and that we’re not proud of, Lorna. I think this proves that.

Really? Are you sure, Lorna? Because you don't seem like it.

Uh... well, the fact that the original Tommy Maximoff died totally has shit to do with it.

Like it still eats at you, that's how. Like you have to keep saying you didn't have a choice over and over again, because you don't quite believe it.

What happened?

[personal profile] 11calls 2020-04-05 01:43 am (UTC)(link)
People used it as a rallying point against mutants?

Was there...

[There's a small pause.]

You said that you chose the wrong side to back. Was there someone else pulling those strings?

You know his death didn't change anything. It gave them more reason to hate us. Don't-

[He takes a deep breath.]

...I know why you did it, I know who put the idea in your head, and I know they took advantage of you when you were vulnerable, and I abandoned you to that. I'm sorry, okay? And I...Lorna. I love you. That never stopped.

We're mutants. We tend to get blamed for shit like that.

I'm guessing that she didn't want the war because she wanted there to be peace between the two of them?
