Those long, cold November evenings...

Victor snagged his coat and stormed down the halls of the heli-fortress. He'd never tell anyone, but he really hated living up in the air. Having his feet off the ground made him edgy all the time...

Misery had come by to 'see' him before leaving for the SHIELD summit. They were held once a year, all the leaders and their team captains had to attend. Two weeks alone, from Thanksgiving to mid-December. And she always made sure that he knew what he'd be missing. Damn, it been years now and he still shook with need every time she touched him.

So here it was, down time again, and he'd be alone...

...well, mostly alone. "Yo, Runt!" he snarled when he made it to the team housing hall. "Wakey wakey, I need a buddy else I don't get to leave!"

Confusion crossed Logan's features as he watched them. He glanced at Vic then back to the people, clearly wanting an explanation.

Victor's face broke out into an honest, open smile as he shifted towards the voices "No, right on time baby." he called out. "I got someone here you need to meet. Logan."

The girl (http://www.icemanx.nl/Marvel/Blink/Blink.jpg) stepped into the clearing first. No more than fourteen with skin a pale lavender and a strange quiver of crystals on her back. The older man (http://media.comicvine.com/uploads/0/77/147317-98506-graydon-creed_large.jpg) was well in his thirties, but followed her easily. "Hey pop. Uncle Logan."

He looked between the arrivals and Victor, still waiting for an explanation.

"Uncle?"

"Umm, yeah, about that..." Vic lifted a hand to rub his head. "You weren't remembering anything, so I didn't bring them to visit or anything, but I made sure to tell them lots about you." and he'd kinda made Logan their legal guardian...if anything happened to him.

"We knew each other a long way back."
