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!]

Could get to Fandom in a day or two my time. Be in Glacia about the same, Portalocity willing. Raven would be faster, though.
Is the telepathy back as well?

I don't want any of this.
That much probably went without saying.
Re: Meanwhile, Back at the Estate...
Date: 2013-12-27 07:19 am (UTC)I know. It's never fair. We love you. We'll be here no matter what.
Would it help to know that at all?
I will be there soon. Swear. I'll tell Karla.
Re: Meanwhile, Back at the Estate...
Date: 2013-12-27 07:23 am (UTC)He wanted to tell her that he would cope. Wanted to yell it for everyone who was worrying to hear.
thank you
Wanted to.
Re: Meanwhile, Back at the Estate...
Date: 2013-12-27 07:27 am (UTC)He could handle all that. By himself, even. He'd had to, right?
But nobody who knew Jono was going to just let that happen again when they could at least try to make a difference.
