"<strong>Who could be uncomfortable around you? You're very friendly and open. You made me feel welcome right away. It was very heart warming compared to some of the yelling and screaming and ..well there were more negative responses too.</strong>" he said.<br/><br/>Ben turned around when the door opened and Scott immediately went into his tirade. "<strong>Oh we..</strong>" he indicated himself and Scott. "<strong>..wouldn't be discussing why you are the Private Prude of the XMen. Don't worry about that.</strong>" he explained since Scott had clearly misunderstood it was going to be him and Kenna that were to be discussing the topic.<br/><br/>Watching Scott's entire reaction to hearing one sentence was astonishing. It was like he was fighting himself from going into battle mode. The rigid military manner, authoritarian stance and clipped words from Scott had Kenna all but hiding. This brought out every protective impulse in him. He reached back to soothe her. He was bred to be a warrior but he was a protector by his nature.<br/><br/>He had absolutely no fear of Cyclops. He was a mutant trying to assert control over everyone by making them uncomfortable with a few pointed questions. It wasn't like bad ratings on this weeks program or Mojo telling you he was thinking of a new look for you and it would require removing your arms and legs.<br/><br/>Ben tried to unpack the last four sentences but there was a lot going on there. Oversensitive to feeling disrespected. Asking what they were doing in the hallway when they had clearly just knocked on his door in order to speak to he and Jean and then some backhanded snipe that they weren't being useful because they weren't here to do slave labor. He was sounding a whole lot like Mojo.<br/><br/>Ben felt he had to tackle each sentence individually. "<strong>Mr. Summers, there was no disrespect to you. I merely whispered a question about something I didn't understand and you managed to overhear it.</strong>" he pointed out. It wasn't like he was doodling pictures of Scott yelling at everyone with an over sized head like he found in Logan's room. "<strong>I do expect you to be civil, you are one of the leaders of the XMen and as such you have a lot more scrutiny than most others. So yes, I don't think you should be so easily offended.</strong>"<br/><br/>He was counting down on one hand and got to three. "<strong>This is an easy one. We are in the hallway because we wished to speak to you and Jean.</strong>" he turns to Kenna. "<strong>I can call her Jean right, she's not offended with me.</strong>" he turns back to Scott. "<strong>Rogue asked us to help a mutant lady who was in trouble and left a voice mail. She suggested you may be interested in that.</strong>" his tone now sounds doubtful. Scott was not really sending out any wanting to help vibes.<br/><br/>Then he gets to his fourth finger. "<strong>No, we didn't come here to help you unpack. I figured since you can packed everything in the first place--it is something completely within your ability to unpack by yourself. Unless you consider us secondary XMen and this is the level of competence we have. And last time I saw Jean's frilly underwear you got all mad. I thought I'd avoid that this time.</strong>" Why were things so hard about just answering a knock at the door? Logan was right. Scott was a dick.<br/><br/>"<strong>So? Are you interested in helping or should Kenna and I handle this on our own?</strong>" There, a perfectly reasonable question that should diffuse Mr. Summer's anger.
