The past few days have been busy, but also relaxing. It's so easy to forget that the 'real world' exists while we are here in a little bubble at the Mansion. While with my family, they exclude me from outings purely from habit, because I could never go anywhere with them before. Despite Dr. McCoy's image inducer, they still had a hard time remembering. I am blessed to be here with you all.

It was also nice to be back at the church here, I have missed it, have missed having my own church. The readings for the past month have been on the Eucharist, with recurring themes of Christ fulfilling humanity. I wonder sometimes, however, how Christ is supposed to be filling all of us. Even before I came here, I believe He filled me with peace to accept who and what I am. But I see so many people both here and in the rest of the world who are not filled with anything good. They are full, but perhaps of anger, or hatred, or greed.

While I'm discussing religion, I see that a few of you are doing a project about the Catholic perspective of mutants. If you would like, I could take you to the church and you could talk to the priest, if that would help you.

Ororo, we still haven't had time to garden together! Maybe I should take you to dinner instead, just tell me when I can see you.

Sorry I didn't reply sooner--I'm still trying to get ahold of Terry--but thanks very much for the offer, that would be a huge help. Would it be easiest if I just came to Mass with you on Sunday and we stayed after?

Yeah, that sounds like a good idea. We'll go to the last mass of the morning. I mentioned it to the priest this morning, so he knew you might be coming sometime.

You know, it's very reassuring that you think of the Church here as yours. I know how important that is.

Dinner -- I'd love to, but I don't know if I should be going out around people. Yet. Screaming kids are... suddenly a lot harder to deal with.

Maybe somewhere quiet.

Would you like to have dinner on the roof sometime? I set up a bit of an area up there, but we could eat there.

That is, if you want to.
