"You want something that will separate you," ::Odin clarified. He operated in the abstract so often these days...::

"No, I want something that will let me belong somewhere." The admission was out before Lorna could stop her tongue. "Even if surprise isn't a part of it."

::That appealed to a part of Odin that he had worked to suppress over the past few years, to limited success. He was not in this business any longer, particularly since her genes *would* manifest.:: "I suppose if I said you need to be patient and I can promise that you are a late-bloomer, you wouldn't listen?"

Kitty made her way through the crowd toward Lorna and the man she was talking to. She was still stumbling and bumping into people. Once back at the bar, Kitty seemed surprised to see her coat over the bar stool and picked it up. She then brashly interrupted the ongoing conversation. "Hey, Lorna?" She said loudly, tapping the girl on the shoulder.

Lorna jumped at the tap on her shoulder, involved in the conversation. "What's up?"

Kitty steadied herself on an empty barstool. "Hey, I'm not feeling so great." She slurred. "My friend Julian..." She pointed to Julian, near the door, "He lives at the mansion, he's going to take me home."

Lorna had never met Julian, but if he lived at the Mansion and Kitty knew him he was ok in her book. "OK. I'll take a taxi."

Kitty looked concerned, "Are you sure?" She asked.

Lorna chuckled. "I'm fine, not quite so scared. Go home if you need to."

Kitty smiled and quirked an eyebrow as she eyed the man Lorna was talking to. Nodding, Kitty moved away from the bar, bumping into people on her way to meet Julian at the door.

Lorna turned back to Odin. "Sorry."

::Odin had remained silent during the exchange, although he had assessed how drunk the other girl had been; he would not have let her leave with someone, friend or not, without verification. But this was not his friend. To Polaris, he lifted his hand in a gesture as to say "no matter."::

Lorna had been going over her reply to him before Kitty had come up. "How do you know I'll come into powers anyways?" she said, answering his question with hers. The bartender swung by, and this time she did order another drink, although it was one of those virgin type of mixed drinks with Red Bull instead of alcohol.

::Odin did not have nearly enough alcohol in his system to dodge the question, although he had ingested enough for a bit of proverbial wiggle room. He managed not to sigh.:: "I know a great deal about mutation."

"How?" she asked, curious.
