Who: Scott McCall notmymccalling and You
Where: Generally outside anywhere, he's roaming about.
When: Sunset on 9/9
Rating: Teen
Summary: Full Moon's out so Scott's prowling about outside to de-stress.
The Story:

Scott really wasn't entirely sure he knew why he felt like he was crawling out of his skin. It was the full moon, yes, but he'd redeveloped an anchor, so it shouldn't be as bad as it was. Maybe it had something to do with the fact that he had this sinking feeling that things have just been too easy lately. Whatever the case, he decided a stroll around the grounds would be a fairly decent idea. If he did start to lose control, he could dart into the woods and calm himself down or claw up a few trees in frustration.

The fresh air did wonders for his antsy, cooped up feeling. He could already feel the crawling under his skin lessen, despite being directly in the moon's glow. Maybe a trip to the training room was in order. If he wasn't afraid he'd break something, he might actually go for that idea.

[OOC: Scott can be found roaming around just about anywhere outside! Feel free to bump into him wherever you like. As always, prose is wonderful, but I don't mind bracketspam either. <3]

Billy grinned. It wasn't often that he found someone who thought his abilities weren't a threat. "Thanks, that's nice to hear, not everyone thinks like that. Back home there were some people who wanted me dead before I had the chance to destroy the world."

It's a common ground that they share. Not that Scott can alter reality or anything so drastic, but he was also considered a threat. "That's... drastic. Wow. Yeah, back home I almost found the same kind of hate just because of what I can do too. My girlfriend's entire family tried to kill me on separate occasions because of it, but now we work together to protect people." They had so many similarly shared experiences with eachother, it was incredible to him, even if Billy's were all on a much higher level than his own.

"People just like to react to what you are and what you can do instead of getting to know who you are and what you actually do." It resulted in a lot of unnecessary death, in Scott's opinion.

'They thought, or think, that because my mother snapped so would I." Billy frowned, it was still a sore subject. "People like to react without thinking, I've learned that. You have to prove yourself over and over when you have gifts like that. That's good, that they have come to accept you." He felt a bond with Scott, even if he didn't know entirely what Scott was, it sounded like he was in a similar situation to Billy at times. It was nice to find someone who could sort of relate.

"Over and over. And the second something goes wrong, you're the prime suspect." He agreed.

"Not everyone has, but some do. They're the people who count. All you can do is try not to let them capture or kill you, and keep trying to help people. Our best just won't be good enough to some." Oh, he understood, alright. But he also sensed the discomfort and decided to segue the subject away.

"So, um, is there anything you do to keep busy. Besides Teddy." he teased.

[actualwizard]

"Every time. It gets old really fast." The segue makes him laugh and he's grateful for it.

"Around here? I've been training with Natasha and my team when I can. Trying to get a video game console set up in the theater. What about you?" He asked with a grin. "Ya know besides your partners. Though I'm sure that could keep you pretty busy."
