Getting the band together
DJ has is set up where he does all his best thinking - playing a few new guitar riffs in his house studio. Among his composition notes sits the legal documents his mother helped go over with him. Right now its just a theoretical, but apparently someone really wants to do this X-Factor thing. Its interesting, kind of a combination of government agent and 'Real World goes Mutant', but he's not yet sure quite what to make of it.

He glances up on hearing her voice, fingers still idly toying over the strings. "I dunno. I mean, its a huge opportunity, and the papers check out. But you know we only got this 'cause of the band. And I don't want to get you in any trouble, y'know?"

And this could spell all sorts of trouble. They'd almost certainly end up fighting other mutants. And who knows when her mom might come up from somewhere to try and use against them? And, of course, he worries about her in general, even if he's never quite sorted out whether she's dating material, friend material, or his sister, sort of.

	She smiles. "I know you don't. To tell the truth, scary stuff going down isn't the part I'm worried about." It shifts to more of a smirk. "I can just hide behind you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Ok, so there is that. And you could help me communicate. I take it you like the idea?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yeah, there might not always be time for you to switch, but we can cover it." "I like it okay, but if they're serious about the positive image thing -- and they'd better be -- well, you know what part I am worried about." A mentally ill mom with one fatal accident to her credit was hardly a supervillainess by New York standards, but on television... (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He nods, curiously. The guitar gets set aside. "Of course. What's up?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Once he's clear, she'll hug him, just 'cause. "Thanks. Just... In General." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He returns the hug after a moment of hesitation. "Yeah, sure Pauline. Any time." (Reply to this)(Parent)
