There is an open Brotherhood thread for Flak, Toad.

Here

Why don't you contact Flak's player and start something up?

I think that'd be the perfect thread for Toad. Flak's a deaf-mute, so I can definitely see Toad giving him grief.

Jet walked down into Madison’s basement. He told her that her exoskeleton would be ready by then. The blonde peered down, not seeing any Madison but remembering he had left to go help out some friends in Canada. But she did see Ilsa, the best robotic dog ever. Smiling warmly as she patted the metallic head.

She looked to see where her exoskeleton would be. Then she saw a huge robot lying about, and thought it looked a lot like Madison’s Box robot. Jet knew where ever Mr. Jefferies went there was his robot, either on his back or taking it with him wherever he went. Well maybe not everywhere but surely he wouldn’t leave it behind. The blonde thought for a moment.

Wondering if the robot lying in front of her was her’s? Jet tilted her head, wondering how it worked. Looking down at Ilsa she said, “Is that mine Ilsa? Do I gotta lug that HUGE thing around?” Ilsa tilted her head. Maybe there was a ‘sleek’ setting she could change it to. Make the weight easier to bear on the back. The blonde, even though puzzled by the robot and wondered if there were directions, was ecstatic.

She tapped her foot and wanted to poke at it. And after looking side to side she reached over and poked at it, holding a grin on her face.

Alister was wondering where he could find a screwdriver. The batteries in his watch had died. The power null seemed unaffected by it which was a blessing as always. He figured Madison had outfitted that function with some kind of never ending power supply but maybe forgot to do that with the normal watch function. He wanted to ask Jeffries about it but he was of course away. He never figured Madison would leave but in hind site it left him alone with Wanda which always made him smile extensively internally as well as externally. He had rummaged around his room, the living room, and finally the kitchen for a screwdriver but nothing.

"Where the hell dose one find a screwdriver in this nut house?"

It was getting a bit ridiculous now as there was just no tools around where you'd think to normally find one. He knew where he could find one but didn't like going into other peoples rooms without there ok. Especially when they weren't there but he needed that damn screwdriver and after it eluded him for so long he wasn't about to give the little monster the satisfaction of outsmarting him. He knew it wasn't alive but since his little mental escapade a few things in his head were still just a tad bit off normal and this was just one of them. He was growling in frustration as he made his way to Madison's door finding it open when he knew Madison always kept it closed for there own safety was a bit odd.

"Did he return and not tell anyone? Oh wait maybe it was just Ilsa."

He walked down into the basement just to make sure. After all he would want someone to check out his room if someone was there that shouldn't be, and if by chance he simply found a screwdriver then well all the better for everyone because he was making somewhat a mess of things up there which he knew was going to be trouble if he didn't get it cleaned up. When he reached the bottom of the stairs he saw Jet and Ilsa there and she looked deep in thought.

"Now I'm all for sneaking into Madison's basement and rearranging everything to screw with his mind but you should have told me. It'd be more fun if we were both in on it."

It's true that it would be fun to do that but he knew Madison would give them both an hour long lecture on how this was all delicate machinery and not toys and how you should be careful, and if not Madison than most likely Alex would feel obligated to but with Alex he'd get the fact that it was a joke and just tell them not to do it again. Which actually made it a bit more tempting to do it but he only wanted the screwdriver. For now.

Despite the sound of Alister’s foot steps coming down the stairs it wasn’t until he talked that she turned to look at him. She smiled and spoke, “Hey Ali.” The red haired mutant hadn’t been with them for quite some time, she didn’t know how much he knew about her ordeal with the Scrambler. Whatever he knew or didn’t know the blonde wasn’t sure if she was even ready to talk about it.

Only a few of the other members even saw her when she was at her worst. And some others saw Jet when she was recovering in the X-Men’s infirmary. She gave a small chuckle at his statement, X-Factor members were known for their jokes and pranks but the blonde was down in the basement on business. She folded her arms and kept looking at the robot.

“Naw, not rearranging. Pondering. Madison said he was going to make me a robot and he told me it was gonna be ready by today. I’m just not sure cause he had to leave and didn’t get the chance to leave me any instructions. I think this one is mine… but I don’t even know how to put it on.” Jet scratched the side of her head, wondering how to even turn it on or if it needed charging. The blonde started to look for an AC plug in for the robot.

"Really? He made you a robot? All I got was a watch that turns me from awesome to controllable."

He looked at his wrist now remembering he was down here for a screwdriver too but right now a robot was more interesting. He looked over the robot with Jet but instead of looking for a AC plug or outlet of sorts he was just wondering what the robot was for.

"If you're going to have a robot help you with your housework that's still cheating you know. So why did Madison make you a robot anyway? I mean, I may be an old fashioned kind of guy but if a guy likes a girl he usually gives flowers, chocolates, and or jewelry. But damn a Robot. You must have really gotten his attention."

He was almost certain that Jeffries intentions were still aimed in the exact same direction that his own were but you never knew with people. That and he had been gone for some time and you can't really say something is impossible especially when the impossible happened on a seemingly endless basis around them every day.

"You know if he made this anything like the one he has it may be voice operated and set to only listen to you. I mean hay my watch batteries may be dead but the null thingy part of it is still going strong. It's not like him to make something that needs to charge. At least not all that much. As for putting it on if I know Mr. Tinkertoy he probably would make it as simple as possible for ease of use."

While looking around the robot he actually saw his main objective and snagged the screwdriver, twirled it in his hand, and then stuffed it into his front pocket in a show of triumph. Now he was more able to focus on the problem at hand. The machine.

"Try telling it to turn on or something. Maybe you have go say a password like on that cartoon show were everyone was a duck and didn't wear pants. Blathering something? With any luck it'll be just that easy and you'll be wearing the latest fashions in armor in no time. If not then we get the can opener and threaten it till it submits."

Alister was surprised that Madison made her a robot. Which meant he didn’t know about anything that happened. And while Jet wasn’t fully ready to talk about it she had to tell him. It was hard to find the words at first but then once she found something to begin with the news made it a little easier to come out. If he wanted for information he could ask her later or ask someone else.

“Ali… a lot of things happened while you were gone,” her tone was somber and low. “A little over a month ago… Well…” The blonde sighed to gather herself then continued, “There was a man… he… He kidnapped Warren and me; he was very angry and blamed us. He… He hurt us, very badly. For me my heart stopped. And he took away our powers.”

Jet took a moment to breathe it out, talking about it made her heart race and pound so hard in her chest. Happy that it was still beating, all thanks to the lovely Wanda, it was difficult to talk about it. “Long story short, the guy took away my powers, I asked Madison if he could build a machine so I can stay on the team.” The blonde sighed heavily and wiped the side of her face with her hand, not much of a tear came out but a tiny one manage to leak from her eyes and roll steadily down her face.

Alister mentioned that the robot could be voice activated and Jet lowered her eyebrows. Why didn’t she think of that? Taking a few steps forward she replied to him, “I never even thought of that.” She leaned in and said, “Activate.”

[ooc: I’ll have my next post be the robot working or not, I need to go and you need to react, so leave that up to me, unless you wanna do it I have no objectons. Which ever is fine with me.]

Needless to say he was dumbfounded by the new information. He could have guessed that things would have changed slightly in the time he was gone but this wasn't something he was ready for. It wasn't any kind of change it was an outright dilemma, a travesty against nature. He stood there for a minute trying to figure out something to say but the only words that poped into his head was WHAT!?

"Oh. I. I. Don't know what to say." He new from personal experience that saying sorry or telling them you understand what they are going threw didn't really help. He did understand the powerless feeling though. He had to turn his own powers off from time to time after all but the difference was he could always turn them back on when he wanted. "I hope that bastard is dead then." His normally happy go lucky face was somewhat gone now. He didn't like to think that because he was gone that something bad had happened that he may have been able to prevent, let alone that it could have been his own fault for having Jet join X-Factor.

He let it pass as letting himself become affected by it would only bring Jet down too. She was no doubt having a hard time dealing with this and she needed people around her who could help her threw it. "Jet powers or no powers you are not going to be kicked out of here. Once X-Factor always X-Factor. Whether you like it not you're going to be stuck with us for a long time." It was true was it not. He was told something similar when he first awoke rather weak, dazed, and more than a little confused some time ago. That even if he didn't join X-Factor that he was more than welcome to stay and he knew they would extend the same courtesy to Jet. If not he'd extend it himself. It was after all only fair and only right.

"Well that was very considerate of Jeffries to make you this so you could still participate in combat. But are you sure your powers are gone gone and not just dormant for some time? I don't know of any mutant who can just remove ones powers permanently and believe me I'd remember that kind of power." His attention was then drawn back to the robot as she went to try and activate it as both of there curiosity was aimed at it.

Alister didn’t know what to say. She couldn’t blame him. It was a difficult situation for her to even talk about. He hoped he died but Jet didn’t respond to his comment. She didn’t know what she wished on the Scrambler. Thinking death might be too good for him and life imprisoned wasn’t enough. As long as he couldn’t get to her, the blonde was happy enough for that.

Jet looked at her hand and replied to his question on whether or not her powers were simply doormat or gone, “Well either way, if my powers are gone or not I still need something to fight with.” She believed her powers were gone. Stolen from her by Kim. It was hard to bear but if it was something she had to live with forever, then she might as well get used to not having them. It broke her heart to have to admit that. But the blonde had to look forward.

After she called out to activate the robot at first there was nothing. Jet put her hands on her hips and sighed. “I guess it didn’t work.” As soon as the word ‘work’ flowed out of her lips and into the air, the robot began to move. The blonde took her hands off of her hips and took a step back at the robot automatically stood. It opened up to allow someone to get in.

Jet’s jaw dropped as she stared in amazement to the machine. All she could say was, “Whoa.”

"Yea I can understand needing something to fight with. Sometimes I wish I could climb inside one of my creatures since I can't do what they can. One well placed... anything and I'm done for if my creatures
or someone else doesn't help out."

Then Jet spoke the apparent activation word 'work' for the robot and it began to operate and opened up. Almost in sink with Jet also said "Whoa."

He giggled a bit even though it was just a few moments ago a rather serious and somewhat dark moment. As the machine moved at the simple command it almost seemed too simple for something Jeffries would have done. Though he did like to make things as simple as possible if it wasn't something specifically for himself. Alister guessed it was because Jeffries either thought too highly of his own intelligence or that he thought everyone wasn't smart enough to understand complex commands and such. Either way he was glad that Jet's new toy was up and running for her. It would hopefully make her at least feel better for a bit, and get her mind on something else more productive. Like figuring out how to work the thing.

"So if he didn't leave any kind of instruction book. How are you going to test this thing? I mean it's bound to have weapons and things like that and I have a feeling that Alex as well as just about anyone living here wouldn't feel comfortable with anyone testing something like that in the house. I know I always felt on edge when Jeffries was testing
out something down here."

Then again Jet was most likely going to ransack the entire basement just trying to get the thing up the stares so if she tried anything this basement was most likely going to be toasted to a crisp.

"On second thought this is probably the safest place you could test it out at, he has tested out things here before so I'm sure it'd be ok if you tried out a few things as long as they weren't major. Besides if he wanted you to not test it here then he would have at least left you some kind of info on how to operate it."

Alister asked if Madison had left any instructions on how to use the robot. She shrugged at his question. After he was finished speaking she turned to him and had a nervous look on her face. An idea brewed into her head but she wasn't sure if she was ready to make the suggestion. She knew her suggestion had to happen sometime. One way or another, and what better way to start in something that's suppose to keep her safe and continue to fight.

“Well...” Jet took in a deep breathe, “I could always test it outside. I mean, ya know... it in open spaces and I wouldn't make HQ crumble to the ground outside...” She was nervous and unsure about her own suggestion. The blonde had taken baby steps to get back into the game but she wasn't sure she felt safe enough.

Her hands shook, and Jet tried clenching her fists to make it stop. After taking in a deep breathe once again. Maybe it was too soon to venture out. Or maybe if Alister went with her. Watched her back, it wouldn't be too bad. And if it got back she was right in front of X-Factor... what could go wrong?

"Hey you're the one with the new spiffy threads I'm just the idea man so wherever you want to test out your new toy is fine by me as long as you realize I'm going too. Robo-Jet 2.0 has peicket my curiosity and I've got to see this thing in action."

Robot battle suit, town full of mutants, and himself. Oh yea. Nothing at all could go wrong with this picture. It was almost a recipe for fun all in of itself and it was sure to be entertaining. At most it would be fun to watch peoples reactions to the new and improved Jet. "Just make sure not to launch any missiles and I'm sure everything will be fine. So are you going to call yourself the Jettenator? Ooh maybe RoboJet?"

It was dumb but he couldn't resist the temptation. Besides it was a sure fire way to try and get Jet to laugh. That and he could never turn down a good joke or funny saying without at least attempting to make humor of it. "So how are we going to do this? I may be able to get some of my knights to help carry it but I don't think they are going to fit threw the doorway... Think Jeffries has a elevator or something installed in here?"
