[At this point, people who were not previously familiar with her might start to realize that any time Emma Frost showed up somewhere, trouble was sure to follow. And this time, she seemed dressed to a more formal kind of trouble...]

Hello, darlings. I know you've all been working very hard, stepping up your training. I am especially proud of my Hellions. All those new X-Teams forming, keeping your chins up in the face of an uncertain future, it's all very inspiring...

... But doesn't it get a bit dull after awhile? Have we forgotten lately where we are? These are supposed to be your best years. It's spring, darlings. That means the most important event of your young lives is coming up.

I'm talking about Prom, darlings.

Don't you worry your pretty heads about the event itself. I've got it all planned out. We'll be having it on the last Saturday of April. And as for formal attire, I've covered that as well. The local tailors in Salem Center, as well as my good friend Feliks, will be more than happy to help you all.

So, I hope that announcement gives you something to look forward to besides getting all sweaty in the Danger Room... Ciao, darlings~

[See what we mean? Trouble. Nothin but trouble.]

[G-gorgeous... Predictably, her cheeks flush.]

W-well, I thought... I always wear red. If prom is really that big a deal, maybe I should wear something else instead.

[diamonds_forever]

That, too. Honestly, I think you'll rock whatever it is.

[Rin heaves a loud, exasperated sigh, but she's still blushing.]

I was looking to you for help, you know... But I guess I'll see what calls to me when it's time to pick something out.

[diamonds_forever]

Oh?

Are you offering to let me design your look for the evening? Completely?

[mouflon]

C-completely?

[Suddenly, she feels like she's made a huge mistake.]

I, I mean, I'm sure you have great taste, but asking for input isn't the same thing as giving up veto power...!

[diamonds_forever]

Fine. You'll have veto power. But I doubt you will use it.

[mouflon]

Jeez... If you're that confident, I guess I have to agree.

[diamonds_forever]

Fortune always favors the bold, darling.
