On the way, she leans over and whispers in his ear "I've been meaning to talk to you about something... if things would just calm down for a bit... Can we...? When we're back at the mansion?"

She wanders over to where Porsche is waiting for the winged guy, and gets there right as he comes back out. She waves at him. "Hi! I'm Kat. Or... Spades, if you like. You probably heard, if you want, you can come with us. It was cool how you helped us, so... We have a plane, and there's classes and teachers and stuff. It beats being alone." That wasn't rambly or awkward at all. Having her true form be seen, even for a moment, with a purpose, was kinda messing with her confidence.

[OoC: Everyone can finish up what their characters are doing and then post you're returning to the Blackbird.  Or in Johnny's case, he is following someone to the Blackbird.  When Johnny leaves, James will be returning to his original thread for his conversation with Professor X..]

Johnny holds his hands up and to the sides to ward off the rapid-fire questions.  Well, at least this kid came from a loving fam.  Good for him.

"Whoa, whoa!  It's okay!  Everything's alright.  James is safe, no problems occurred.  Whatever happened out there is over.  I'm Johnny.  I just tried to make sure your husband and son were safe.  I'm bringing them back to you now, so you don't have to worry about me doing anything to them."  Anymore at least...  "I have no idea if the broom and trashcan lid did anything, but I think it would be much safer next time to just stay in the house where it's safe and call the cops.  Yes, those are wings, and yes I can fly.  I'd love a cup, but I'm afraid I have to get going.  I'm being told that I need to go somewhere else and I'm inclined to agree.  Stay safe guys."

With that, Johnny nods and waves and walks out of the house towards the aforementioned hot redhead, noting that she was, indeed, hot.  But she was also considerably older than he.  He guessed that was okay for some people, he just preferred people closer to his age. That's when he notices how hot all of the girls he just spent that battle with were.  Wow!  This is all one school?  The smokey girl who he helped deflect James back into his house with...she's muy caliente now that she isn't covered in smoke.

"Okay.  Situation's secure, I think.  My work will wear off in a few minutes.  I have no idea how they'll react, but it's better than any of them getting involved in that.  By the way, did you know that that kid can literally blow the ceiling up?"
