[ there's a lot of unsteadiness and out of focus visuals when this feed starts. it's a big indication that whoever is doing this recording is extremely unskilled with this phone device, and they're trying to get it to work right. but the individual gets it eventually (without breathing out a few swears), and it's a grown woman with red hair with white streaks and in a full bodysuit.

it seems strange for a woman to be in this attire, given the heat (on her side of the town), but maybe that's not important. the lady beams at the camera as she holds the phone out so the viewer can get a full look at her. ]

Lil' late, but Daddy used to say, "Better late than piddin' around." But howdy, folks...! My name's Rogue and I'm a mutant and new around these parts.

[ she feels a little awkward introducing herself given the events last month, but she trucks on through. ]

Couldn't introduce myself earlier 'cuz all the ruckus, but with everything simmering down, I done figured now it'd be good to say hello. But the real reason for me hollerin' is that I put myself into a bit of a tissy.

[ the feed jitters around for a few seconds, and she shows a display of food laid out on the table. rogue chuckles sheepishly as she pans over each meal, so the viewer can get a better look. ]

Every first week of the month, it'd be my turn to cook for everyone in the mansion. Been doin' it for years, and I plumb forgot I ain't at home. — When ya feedin' the X-Men, you gotta cook enough to feed a herd of buffalos. Especially durin' the holidays, but this ain't nothin' compared to Jean's. She'll spend night and day in the kitchen if ya don't tell her to quit.

[ she turns the recording back on herself, and continues to smile from ear to ear. ]

So how about you lovely folks help a gal out with some eatin'? I bet them bellies ain't full like a tick, neither. I'm —

[ before she could even finish her sentence, a chair by the table glitches out of existence, and then a creature phases in its place. the wharf rat looks around, genuinely confused at its new surroundings, and rogue too blinks over at the monster that's now behind her. ]

What in tarnation?

[ the monster spots the food and her, then immediately lunges forward, which causes the mutant to abandon the phone — leaving the viewer to only see the ceiling, and a lot of commotion of a scuffle. ]

Now hold your horses, Sugah...! — Thems people food!

[ there's a one big slam and a rumble heavy enough that the phone staggers where it lies. after that, the room is filled with silence except maybe a casual whimper from the creature. rogue hovers (yes, she can fly) in view and lowers down to grab a hold of her phone. ]

I'mma take a wild guess that ain't normal.

[ the video feed pans over to the monster lying on its back, now quiet and unconscious, with her sighing in exasperation. ]

Dammit, he might've got my cake all lopsided...

[OOC: EDIT: action log of giving out food is UP. ]

[She met the flying woman briefly at the beach, but it's the name dropping that catches her attention. "X-Men" and "mutants" in particular. Isn't that what Scott said the superpowered people in his world were called? Interesting.]

[sorry not sorry]

but yeah
the glitches keep getting worse and worse around here
good thing it looks like you can handle yourself

[A part of him is surprised to see Rogue offering food to well, everyone. Not just mutants, but anyone that's watching this video. But... but he knows by now that she's not a fully bad person, maybe just someone that's been through a lot. Morph still believes in her. And she helped him cure Kurt.

All that counts for something, right?

Of course, Scott's not feeling his best still. But he picks up whatever energy he has to respond to her, especially after beating up that monster.]

I was hoping that the glitching would've stopped after last month, but it doesn't seem like it.

[So, he still has to worry about that...]
