[She snorts out a little laugh.] No, I can completely control it. I have to actively work someone for that to happen.

So, why be all Rogue about it if you're not gonna accidentally drop anyone?

[bittersweeter]

Eighteen years of habit and some people don't exactly trust me? Like, I'm pretty sure Eric and Zero are the only people who wouldn't give a shit. And Zero has a charm against me, so.

[uncurse]

They think you're gonna do it on purpose and they won't know. [ yeah emma had ... not considered that at all. maybe this is why she continuously gets screwed by people ... ] Shouldn't the Knights, more than anybody, be willing to cut you some slack and trust you on that?

[bittersweeter]

Probably. Though it might hurt that that's exactly what I do. [She shrugs.] Ask Faye.

[At least she is honest, right?]

[uncurse]

To your own teammates?

[bittersweeter]

[She hasn't actually worked anyone since that time (besides Zero but that was for reasons other than vindictiveness) but she doesn't mention that, looking at Emma calmly.]

If the occasion calls for it.

[uncurse]

The occasion never calls for it. I can guarantee you any time that looks like an option, there's another, better way.

[bittersweeter]

[You know who doesn't believe that for a second? Lila.] Okay.

[uncurse]

[ there's a hesitating look, and emma's expression strains as she tries to figure out what to say to that, but there's really nothing. she presses her tongue against the inside of her teeth and just nods, moving forward in the plane back to her seat. ]
