After a brief pit stop at the other island off the coast of San Francisco (look, Alcatraz loomed large in Karla's recollections; there was a lot of trauma associated there), Karla and the others made their way to Utopia--which, truth be told, probably should have been their first stop, consider how utterly ridiculous it looked. Was there some kind of side effect of the X-gene that drove them towards horrific ostentation?
...Okay, someone was feeling a little bitchy right now. Short of sleep and long on worry did not make for a particularly charming Karla.
But hey! No one here would be surprised when Karla stormed in and threatened to rip everyone and everything apart until they brought her to Jono. They'd dealt with her before. That was okay, though. She wasn't here to make friends.
The doors to the base slammed open and Karla strolled inside, totally not spoiling for a fight at all, thank you. She collared the first mutant she could see, a pink-haired girl with wings, and pleasantly snarling, "Where is Jono? Now, please."
That was a friendly smile, Pixie. Really.
[NFB, for folks who wanted in on the yelling!]

"How long has it been? Do I have to make an appearance?"

"... Relatively smoothly. He's okay?"

And then tripping over the coat as she tried to step away, landing on her backside. "Ow!"

"--very, very, very long time."

Date: 2013-12-27 07:00 am (UTC)"Ah! Is that my phone?" She patted her pockets and then froze: "Ohnonononono! What time is it? I gotta call Jaime!" She finally located her phone and headed off to a quiet corner to call home...
