TO: HYPERION, CARPENTER FROM: COLOSSUS
Hyperion, I have included Carpenter on this e-mail to fully explain myself, my ideology and where I am coming from. I have also included your last e-mail to me in this message. I hope I am not coming off as abrasive, as this is not my intention. I mean to include no threats or warnings and do not mean to be offensive, if I come off this way I deeply apologize. Mister 'Carpenter' I regret that I have yet to meet you. I wish to speak with you on other matters soon if possible. In this e-mail I will describe my actions, my rationale behind them, and my problems with the most recent e-mail I have received.
My codename is Colossus. My mutation is turning into a nearly eight foot tall piece of metal. This was not my choice, and I apologize that I do not have a more discrete and stealthy mutation. As it is, I stand out. I was put in a position where I felt civilians were under possible threat. I maintained my mutation in order to protect them from the infected we had confirmed were in the building. As we know little about this virus, I would do everything in my power to ensure their safety and that they would -not- be effected by the virus. My mutation takes a moment to take effect. I was not willing to risk the few seconds it may take that a civilian or a member of our team to get infected that I could have prevented. Hyperion states we are not to be heroes or save the lives of five people in order to maintain our secrecy. While I understand this line of thinking, I believe it to be inherently flawed.
Perhaps I am mistaken we are here to solve this problem, and to solve this problem we need to prevent the virus from spreading. Were my team or the doctors we rescued infected due to me maintaining our discretion, our organization would be close to destroyed. Hyperion asks the question, what if there had been more? I deem this a question asked out of frustration rather than logical thinking. There -were- no more. If there were more this would be a different e-mail as I would have either changed my course of action, or would have not should we have been under infection invasion.
The fact remains that I will not sacrifice innocent lives rather than -not- use my mutation. If this is a problem, I ask that you inform me immediately and you can expect my letter of resignation in return. Hyperion also suggests shotguns and grenades to use on the infected. These are people who suffer from a disease, not people who have committed crimes and have been committed to death row. This calloused statement gives me pause. The infected should be sedated and restrained rather than sentenced to death for their unfortunate geographical placement.
I will take every precaution I can to maintain discretion, but I was not the one who volunteered for this project. I was brought here. The purpose is to as Hyperion said, save 600,000 lives. Lives generally aren't saved by grenades.
I also feel that a lone mutant does not expose the entire organization of X-Force. But that is neither here nor there, thank you for your time. |

New Piotr, I am probably the coolest and most humble one so far. Due to me hating LJ and wanting to pull my own head off when I try to figure out how to delete crap just assume everything behind me is meaningless drivel. :D if you want to know what I've kept from old Piotr's ask me so I can tell you 'idk'. :) Anyways byyee |

Pete meets one of the new students and his hedgehog.
( 'You're home!' [Kitty] )
Backdated to 9/1, shortly after Piotr's arrival back to the school. A happy reunion. |

( 'I believe Madam Vargas will be heartbroken if I don't bring one of her best eaters by to be stuffed before bed.' [Jean] )
Seeing a time of need, Piotr returns home to resume his old job and of course, to catch up with his second family, beginning with big sister Jean. |

There is a new Piotr on the grid, as people will be noticing in the next few days. I am a new player to the character, though not a new player to the game. I am sorry to disappoint anyone who saw this character and hoped for his last player to have returned. I hope to hold a candle to the last Pete.
Here is a little ficlet which I wrote, not only to find him as a character, but to show the catalyst for his return to the grid.

Chaos is in the offing. Piotr attempts to moderate it.
A fun little DR scenario.

Cheating is very very bad. But occasionally useful.
Pirates are so passé.

In contrast with Sophie, even Piotr cannot help but seem cheerful. In fact, he really is cheerful. WTF with that?
In which the cheerfulness is explained.

I was given a rabbit and a chicken by a very strange lady in the city today, and I admit I am not certain what to do with either. The rabbit is quite docile and would probably make a good pet, but the chicken is a little more of a problem. If anyone has an idea of what to do with them, then I would appreciate it.
Piotr is having a bad day, and then he meets Yuriko. The day shifts from being bad to completely unclassifiable.

Jubilee is miserable. Piotr tries to cheer her up. At least this time he doesn't make her any more miserable.

Requested scenelet. Prompt: And Piotr talking to the rest of his family now that Illy is back. How much do they know of/what do they think of everything that's been going on? All done!

Cassy brings Piotr and Kitty a present. Piotr is not particularly appreciative, though it does make him talk to Kitty again.

Piotr finds Bobby. Bobby has a present from Magneto. He is evasive as to its origins.
Westchester County is in peril. Two valiant superheroes go to save the day in glamour and style, cracking wise and looking stunning throughout.

Piotr has a problem. He does not share it. Jean very carefully does not pry.

Cut for length(ish), adult(ish) subject matter handled in the tamest way possible, and possibly a few more things containing (ish). It is ICly very locked and very much in Russian.
Piotr tries to comfort Jubilee, and makes a horrible mess of it. (Backdated)
Piotr finds an unexpected Cassy, and they speak for a surprisingly long time before she manages to break his brain again.
Kitty attempts to talk Important Things with Piotr, but her computer has other ideas.
