I just didn't expect to be in Attilan as long as I was. This has been set up largely over email when I've been on the island. Charles directed Gabrielle to Elpis in relation to a DDR program being run out of Derbent, in Dagestan. She and I are going to head over this weekend and get an up-close look.
Feel like coming?

. . . I've been hanging around the kids too often. When I read "DDR" my brain gave me "Dance Dance Revolution."
As for going, um . . . well, that's kind of . . . um. You know what, I'll go. It's in my area, and we need to stop dodging her. I'm about at the limit of 'Sorry, recovering from insanity' as an excuse. Anyway, it can't get too awkward with you there, right?

Can you think of anyone less likely to urge you to reconnect with parental figures than me? Okay, Pietro and Wanda, most likely, but I digress.
I really am not trying to set up some awkward situation here. It is your specialty, and I could use your viewpoint on how good the program is for the kids in it. Their latest intake involved half a dozen mutant kids from Chechnya, hence Charles thinking Elpis might be interested. It's apparently the tip of a much larger iceberg.
