Hyde-ing In The Park

Located on the River Thames, London has been a major settlement for two millennia. The low-income borough of Lambeth has been largely taken over by London's mutant population and is now known as Mutant Town.

Hyde-ing In The Park

Postby Wanda Johansson » Fri Jan 26, 2018 8:45 pm

After snatching their coats and some reassurance from Wanda, they'd flown to one of the wooded areas of Hyde Park to lay low for a bit. The snow didn't seem to bother her even though her shoes were scattered somewhere in the club. A quiet peacefulness settled on the immediate area as her feet touched the earth, though Isolde could sense that lingering scent of ozone in the back of her brain. "We'll stay here for a bit, let you collect yourself, then find some way home."

Isolde looks mostly human by now, though her eyes are still livid gold, and her teeth are noticeably sharp.

"That wasn't... right. That shouldn't have happened."

"So outbursts like that aren't typical?" Wanda asks, with just a bit of seeking reassurance in her voice.

"Well, they're not here now I'd wager, whoever they were. It doesn't sit well that someone would be pushing you like that in the middle of a crowded club though."

"You could be playing a long game," she says with a small shrug, "but that doesn't seem like your style." She steps closer to Isolde, obviously a gesture of some sort of trust.

Isolde reaches out her hand, but looks down at it. Her fingers are still tipped by wicked claws, her knuckles frosted with dark hair. She grits her teeth, and the more inhuman features withdraw.

Finally, she clasps Wanda's hand.

Wanda pulls Isolde closer, leaning into her and resting her head on Isolde's shoulder. It's an act of irrevocable trust and a desire to seek comfort for herself as much as to try to comfort Isolde. Oddly enough, despite the chill in the air, Wanda's warm.

"...why are you doing this?" She asks softly.

She seems to be asking herself as much as Wanda.

Wanda slides her arms around Isolde and just stays that way, allowing the silence to blanket them for a little while. She breaks the silence with a quiet "Happy you took the job?" There's a small smile on her face.

"What else have I had to do stuck at the school?" She laughs as they lift into the air and start towards the school.
