4th Shot [video]

Alien planet or not, there's no way I'm spending another Thanksgiving alone. I know I'm not the only American trapped in this place. And I can't be the only person here with a thing or two to be thankful for.

[It had been one of her favorite holidays as a child. Her mother had reminded her every year just how much she had to be thankful for growing up in the Bishop family, never needing to want for anything. They'd spend the day in one of the soup kitchens her mother helped to run and serve meals to those in need. She never complained, even as a little girl.

By the time they came home at the end of the afternoon, it seemed like Christmas had come early. Food would be spread out on the dining room table and her father would actually be home from the office in time to spend a meal with the rest of them. Eleanor would insist they all eat dinner together, It hadn't been just the Bishop family that night, but their cook and nanny and housekeeper. Everyone together, one big family.

It had been one of the first traditions to go after her mother died. Thanksgiving had become a day to slave away in the soup kitchens, nothing more.

Kate takes a deep breath, looking pointedly at the camera. If a flicker of sadness and longing crosses her face, it's in your imagination. There's no regrets here. Not one whatsoever. Life is too short to let those emotions keep dictating your every action.]


So, guys, what do you say? I've never exactly prepared my own meal but it can't be that hard. Thursday, 5 pm, my place. Bring whatever you want. I'll provide the bird.

[Ahh the library. A place Wanda hasn't been back to since Luceti Valley went belly up.]

... Mmm. I'll... just ask a librarian, then, I suppose. ... We-- do have one? In Luceti? Right?

[He can't help but laugh a little.]

Oh my god, your face right now!

You both seem happy. That's cool.

[He shakes his head.]

It's just not the same. I hope you don't learn the hard way, my friend.

I wish to celebrate both. I have given my bff the great fist of Yule once, perhaps I can make it a great fist of Thanksgiving this time.

Throwing things at the bald guard with a temper and having a point system based around how red he got was probably not my smartest date idea. [ Lisa wasn't complaining, though. ] Long story short, crime dates are a bad idea. Follow my words of wisdom.

Yeah, I do.

[And teasing her is gonna be fun.]

You get your happiness where you can and hold onto it.

What was your first clue? [Journal stalking? That she ran the Item Shop? That she'd been working with Wolverine too? Billy and/or Teddy might have mentioned her? It could have been any number of things, but Rogue knew who Kate was as well for those same reasons and gave the girl a smile.] Kate, right?

Lucky hunch. Yeah, I'm an only kid. Had some cousins, that's about as close as I ever got to siblings.

I'll remember that.

And they weren't, not really. We got a long pretty well. But I didn't see 'em much.

It is! Shame people never realise that until the world goes to hell.

Ehh. [Simon shrugs dismissively.] My family was sort of complicated. It doesn't matter much. I was a bit of a loner anyway.

Yeah. I am. Shame I didn't realise until too late.
