[1//ACTION//TEAMMATES AND CLOSE FRIENDS, EARLY AFTERNOON]
[Liir paces nervously, something unusual for someone generally low key. He clears his throat.]
I just wanted to tell you that...My name isn't Liir Ko. It's Liir Thropp. I'm the son of Elphaba Thropp, the so-called 'witch of the west'.
[2//VIDEO//EARLY EVENING//OPEN]
[Liir appears, looking a little nervous but somewhat calmer than he was earlier.]
Fellow students and staff of the Xavier Institute: there is something about myself that I've been hiding which I'd like to tell you...My name isn't Liir Ko. It's Liir Thropp. I'm the son of Elphaba Thropp, the so-called 'witch of the west'. I came here, not as a foreign exchange student, but under Proffesor Xavier's protection, which I'll always be grateful for. I've seen the very human side of one of our mutant leaders up close. And knowing that I'd like to ask you to please not judge Claudine Renko too harshly. Being a leader takes a terrible toll on you. It makes you grow around the pressure it places on you, like a...tree growing against a clifface. Someday I think she'll go back to being Renko, Leader of Mutants. And when she does I think she'll avoid repeating the mistakes Magneto and my mother made.
Thank you for your time and I'm sorry for the deception and the implied egotism of making such a big announcement.

[And he blocks her in order to peacefully sulk.]

I just hope she's ok. Are you?

So what's the problem, Liir?
[Action]
[He tries not to look it quite so much though. In their weird way, Gene Nation looks out for each other.]
[Action]
[...hm.
If so, even tangentially, that'd be the second person she knew who had...issues with their name.
Let alone herself.]
[Action]
[He's not sure what he's going to ask her. He was going to ask her how to be more like her, someone who was, if not all smiles and sunshine, completely self-possessed. But that, he realized, would be a stupid question.]
[Action]
[Beat.]
What?
[Action]
[Action]
Like me?
[Who wanted to be like her? She was aggressive, belligerent, angry, combative and--why would anyone want to be like that?
The only thing she was secure in anymore was in how frankly awful she was. He wasn't talking about that, was he?]

It doesn't really matter to me what your name is. You're still you. You still smell the same.
[voice]
...I hope it's a good smell?
Re: [voice]

It's probably because the birds keep coming by...And you've got such a sensitive nose. I'm sorry.
no subject
Why are you apologizing for having a smell? Everyone has a smell.
