"I can always change my mind," Gambit replied, just to tease her. He studied the guy - Kevin, according to the phone number, was his name - skeptically. So he revealed his phone number... He actually wrote it down... He accompanied it with his name... He trusted Gambit on his side of the deal... Apparently, he also displayed his real appearance.
Gambit had been comparing him to Mystique all along - what better reference sample could there ever be for a mutant with abilities like that? - and came to a sad conclusion that the guy was either an unthinking beginner or a daring amateur. Either way, he wouldn't last long by being so careless. Even considering Gambit's ability to persuade people... For the guy's sake, Gambit was hoping that the name, the number and the appearance were all fake.

Brady's brow furrowed slightly, she didn't like being teased. She then took a sip from her water and glanced back over to where John was, still drinking.

John, who like Brady has observed, was still drinking, feeling more and more relaxed. He looked over at where Brady was standing with Gambit, and the blonde who was now a guy, a curious look on his face.

"So can I," Morph said, gathering the remains of his dignity. "Thanks," he smirked, then looked at Brady, who was looking at John, and frowned again.

Gambit followed their glances and saw John again. Evidently, now everybody was looking at John. Gambit gave him a short nonchalant wave to acknowledge his presence, then grabbed the piece of paper with the number. He leaned towards Brady and told her quietly, "Divertissez-vous, poussins."

Seeing everyone looking at him, John gave a short wave in response to Gambit's, before his gaze dropped to the counter of the bar.

Brady looked to Gambit with a quirked brow, "Vraiment?"

Morph couldn't really say he liked weird Cajuns whispering things in French to his girlfriend. It made him feel he was uninformed and not in control of the situation. He put some dollar bills on the counter to pay for the drinks. "Don't mind me," he told Brady and Gambit sarcastically, then threw another long look at John to memorize his appearance. He might need it later, he decided.

Gambit winked at Brady and took the money, then raised his hand to pinch Kevin's cheek. "If ya been as cautious as you are possessive, mon cher, ya might've accomplished somethin' in life," he smirked, then left the bar.

Seeing Gambit leave, John slowly stood up, swaying slightly as the room spun. Once his eyesight returned to normal, he walked towards Brady. "Y'done with your business sh*t?"

Brady smirked and then kissed Kevins cheek softly, as John walked up she laughed, "I think so." She nodded.

Morph went speechless for a second, then got off his chair. "Wow, everybody just gotta love me," he remarked, still sarcastic, then stared at John. "Yeah, and we're leaving," he said, taking Brady's hand.

John raised an eyebrow, his glass raised to his lips as he took a sip from it. "Leaving sounds f*cking good." He mumbled.

Brady gave Kevin a look and then looked to John and laughed. Taking the glass away from him with her free hand she set it on the bar, "Come on, then."

Morph headed towards the door, pulling Brady after him. He had no idea about John planning to join them, and that could only mean he was in for a surprise in a few seconds.
