"I also brought some of Mr. Gambit's beignets," Becca smiled warmly, holding the plate out proudly, as if she'd made them herself.
"Satu rahmat!"
He hopped up, as if the warmth of the mug and the smell brought her to life.
"From a Goddess!" She flushed a bit, before taking a few careful sips.

Coincidental, Calico had already been bringing it up, but the timing made it seem prophetic, at least!

"Someone..."
A low moan from under the covers.
"Anyone... Coffee..."
A hand grabs out at the air and falls limp dramatically.

Mama always said Sunday's meant for something else. Something not ... seductive. At all.

Mama always said Sunday's meant for something else. Something not ... seductive. At all.
The words always made Becca smile. It was a layered expression, full of pride and happiness and genuine joy, but with a smattering of shameful guilt she could never quite get rid of.
"Maybe ... breakfast. I think I got enough sleep." And nightmares. Enough of those, too.
"Maybe ... breakfast. I think I got enough sleep." And nightmares. Enough of those, too.
"I...!"
Sophia's face flustered immensely. There was nothing in Becca's voice that felt like a lie or doubt. "I... Lo-love you too..."
She felt like her heart was going to lurch from her chest.
"Do you ... Want to try and get a little more sleep? Or should we head downstairs for breakfast...?"

"Do you ... Want to try and get a little more sleep? Or should we head downstairs for breakfast...?"
The kiss on her hand made Becca blush as well. But on top of that, her lip quivered for a moment. Maybe it was the words.
"I love you," she said softly, a smile wrenching its way through whatever struggle happened on her face in those breaths. "We are amazing." Not a lot of confidence, but still.

"Maybe being a mutant is both knowing we're amazing, and understanding our limits. Or... It's about pu-pushing them. How about this..."
He brought one of Becca's hands up and kissed her hand softly, he cheeks turning a dark red.
"I'll keep being amazing, and you keep being amazing too."

"I don't hate her!" she responded too quickly. "I don't know how to feel about ... about her, I guess. I don't hate her, but to think of all the things she kept from me. She loved me, so she kept them from me for a reason. I just don't know what that reason is."
"I'm sure she did what she thought was the best for you. Sadly, our own beliefs can cloud our true intentions. Don't fret, child. You don't have to hate her but acknowledge what she did."
That was a lesson Calico was still struggling with.
"Mama just wanted the best for me. She taught me everything ..."

"That was Ember. He kicked Mr. Logan. And I've already said sorry a lot for that!" Becca protested, sitting up as if she had to defend herself against a point that flew right over her head in that moment.
Her expression immediately softened as she looked at the other.

Her and Ember could beat anyone. The sleepiness of the morning was catching up to her as weary eyes counted stripes in the wallpaper.
"Definitely not anyone." The tales she'd heard since she joined the X-Men, the things they've fought. It terrified her.

"I know," Becca said quietly, staring at the foot of the bed from where she rested. Sofia's hand felt good through her hair. It helped a lot.
"Do you think I could be as strong as Miss Rogue one day? And chase off goblins like she did?"

Likely the last for a little while, as autumn was coming fast.

"No," Becca said pitifully. She shifted along with Sofia, though instead of a shoulder she rested her head on Sofia's lap.
"It was that awful woman, the Hag, that chased us," she explained in spite of herself. "Only this time she wasn't chasing us. She was breathing fire all over the place."
"It was that awful woman, the Hag, that chased us," she explained in spite of herself. "Only this time she wasn't chasing us. She was breathing fire all over the place."
"Do you wa-want to talk about it?"
She hid herself less, climbing up and sitting with her back to the headboard. Still hugging the pillow, but now more sharing the blanket than using it as a divider.
"You can... Put your head on my shoulder if you want..."

They weren't exactly subtle about their relationship around others. Because why would they need to be? It was still hard for Becca to grasp that.
"I think ... I think I was having a bad dream," she murmured, explaining why she'd been sleepwalking again. Why she sought comfort.

"That they might think... That you're my g...girlfriend? You did call me that..."
She closed her eyes and leaned into Becca's hand. Just a little. Not fully closed. She was just sleepy.
"Or, that I like that you're here?"

It was hard to part now that they were here. Sure, there were alarms going off all through Becca's head. She should leave. But ... the bed was soft, Sofia was looking at her and they /were/ just talking.
So Becca stayed.

"Yeah but ..." Becca lowered her voice scandalously, cheeks on fire. "We're in bed. The same bed."
Of course they were both fully clothed and Becca was barely under the covers with Sofia, but still! Unbecoming! Not suitable!
Still, Becca reached out and brushed back a strand of Sofia's hair.

Her reaction to the bite had been, perhaps, an overreaction. Mere moments later and the pain was a dull memory in her shin. Or maybe Becca just had other things on her mind to distract her.
Like being close. In bed.
"Shhhh. What if someone hears us? I shouldn't be here, Sofia."

"And that teaches us something, don't you think? Not all sources of knowledge are reliable or one hundred percent trustworthy."
"So it's still there?" She couldn't hide the expression of relief. "They only taught us eight planets in class, I was afraid to ask what had happened to it."

"It is simply due to its small mass and his erratic orbit, but Neptune keeps steadily tugging at him. It's now considered a dwarf planet but a planet nevertheless."
"Did you know that Pluto isn't a planet anymore? Mama always taught me that there were nine planets. That Pluto was the last one. Did something take it? Or destroy it?!"

Well that all backfired. No stealthy escape for her!
Biting her lip to stifle herself, Becca rolled over and offered Sofia the best smile she could muster. It came out extremely awkwardly.
"Hey," she said, as if everything was alright.

Eyes went wide.
As soon as her leg was released, Becca yanked it back and held onto it, burying her face into an actual pillow with a muffled sound of pain!

The blonde needed to make a hasty exit. Sure they were ... but then if they ... and this was ...
It was not suitable!
Yet with Sofia's head on her foot--long enough to numb it, too--it seemed an impossible task to slip free.
Gingerly she started to pull her foot away, holding her breath.

She's face down sideways by her feet, dozing softly while only three quarters even on the bed.
She's using one of Becca's ankles as a pillow somehow.
It looks deeply uncomfortable.

At some point during the night she had sleepwalked again.
Waking up now, she realizes she had ended up in @outlierjitter.bsky.social 's bed. She blinks the sleep from her eyes and the burn of her cheeks helps bring her into the world.
