The Debate
Disclaimer: I don't own Generation X or any of the characters in the Marvel Universe, I also don't own anything of value, so don't sue me. I would like to write for Marvel, I'll work for $30000 a year.
The 4-1-1: The boys of Generation X debate Angelo's chances of getting with Jubilee.
Because of all the dialogue I wrote this in a script format.
Dedication: The Varsity wrestling team at Woodlawn High School 1990 to 1993, 'member me?

SCENE
Jubilee runs downstairs in a white tank top, tight ripped jeans, and a oversized white cotton shirt. She has a hip pack and small duffle bag. Angelo, Everett (he's coming back, you know that, this is Marvel for crying out loud), and Jonothon are sitting in the living room playing Tekken Tag on the Playstation 2.
ANGELO
Looking good chica!
JUBILEE [waving]
Thanks...cya guys.
ANGELO
Where is the Chica going?
EVERETT [smirking]
Where do you think?
JONO
Again?!? Didn't she go with him last week?
EVERETT
Yeeeep.
ANGELO
Go where, with who?
JONO & EVERETT [rolling their eyes]
WOOLVEEEEEEEE!
ANGELO
Oh, cool, that'll give me time.
JONO
Time to do what?
ANGELO [blushing]
uhg...uh..ah
EVERETT [in disbelief]
Oh man not you, you tryin' to get with Jae?
ANGELO [angrily]
YEAH and what of it? It ain't like I'm breaking a law here?
EVERETT [snickering]
Logan's Law....AHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!
JONO
AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ANGELO [sighing]
You two are dorks.
EVERETT
Ah come off it, you know dang well Jubilee will never get with you.
JONO
DANG, you said dang.
ANGELO
That so? Why cause I am grey, I got Latino heat man, the Ladies love me. Beside Logan don't scare me.
JONO
Yeah but Logan has Canadian Chill, no competion? And you should be, especially when it comes to that Gel.
ANGELO [disgusted]
Ahg...man y'all is sick. She's like his kid or somethin'
JONO
How many Dads, that you know of, walk past their little gels buck naked?
EVERETT [Slapping five with Jono]
Amen, bro.
ANGELO
That never happened.
JONO
Yep, it did, when the gel was on the Blackbird comin' from that 12 thing with Apocolypse. He was meditating and she made some comment about him not having on clothes and from what I heard, he got up and walked right by her. Even stopped to look at her.
ANGELO [whisper]
really?
EVERETT
Plaese man, that ain't the half. What about him walking three days in the woods, no the wudz...W-U-D-Z. With bears, and crazy gun toting red necks and and and...well what ever else lives in the woods. Dude just just broke out and walked, WHY, WHY? Cause she ASKED him too. C'mon.
JONO
And what about when he went feral and was living in the forest near the Xavier's. Nobody, not even the all powerful X-Men would go after him...she just walked out there like she was going to the store and hugged him.
EVERETT
And what about all the hugs and stuff, I ain't never seen any Dad hug his girl like that. And what about the time he popped a claw in ol' Sabertooth's head for threatening her?
ANGELO
SABERTOOTH, threatened everyone he loved that night.
EVERETT
Maybe, but I saw the security video from that night, Logan was 'cool' until Sabertooth said Jubilee's name. And when Sabertooth was healing, Boomer...Meltdown, was taking care of him. Once, she bounced up and took his hand; Logan turned around and said "In all the years I have known her, when has Jubilee ever held my hand like that." SHHESSH.
ANGELO
Naw, y'all reading to much into this... he's the same way with Kitty Pride.
JONO & EVERETT
NOPE!!!! WRONG!!!!
EVERETT
During that whole 12 thing when Logan became Death, Kitty got her Ninja untangable ass handed to her on a silver platter. Enter Jubilee, she basically slaps him and tells him to be his old adorable self and BAMF, one whipped Logan as ordered. And when did he every go to England to visit Kitty when she was with Excalibre? Or what other X-Men did he run through the desert for in the middle of the night cause he caught a whiff if them ten miles away?
JONO
And let's not forget Gateway; everytime Logan and the gel get within ten feet of each other he takes them God knows where.
EVERETT
Like that time Logan came up here to drop off some software, Gateway takes them Switzerland and left them there.
ANGELO
Yeah but weren't there some bad guys there?
EVERETT
There are bad guys two blocks away, their called the FOH, fine, they got into a fight, so why did it take them two weeks to get back?
ANGELO
They didn't have any money....
EVERETT
Oh so that's why she came back with a new wardrobe from Paris.
JONO
Oh, what about the time he left, before we got together, Hank told me that Logan left everyone a letter but Jubes's letter as the deepest thing he'd ever read.
EVERETT
Hank reads some deep stuff, I can only imagine what was in the letter.
ANGELO
It was deep...opps.
JONO
You read it?
EVERETT
Angelo save yourself the heartache, this stuff just happened in the last year or so. We didn't even talk about Jubilee being the only one able to comfort him when Mariko died or him always dragging her to Asia on one dim witted adventure after another or the him always calling her Darlin' and saying it 'that' way.
ANGELO
....EWW, you guys are gross...Logan's like a thousand years old....
JONO
So what, if he was to date my eighty year old Grandmama, he would still have years on her. That don't mean he wants to be alone or that he should be. No matter who he ends up with he's going to be much older than them, it might as well be the Gel.
EVERETT
Look, Angelo I ain't saying nothing is going on now but, knowing Jubilee and him it's only a matter of time.
ANGELO
Nope...Logan would never stand for it.
JONO
Jubilee is no push over, she's a cute gel, getting better everyday. If you think she's going to let Logan get away without one hell of a fight you are a fool.
EVERETT
Why do you think I left her alone?
JONO & ANGELO
WE THOUGHT YOU LOVED MONET!!!!
EVERETT
I do...now.
ANGELO
Wait a second, what if Logan does reject her successfully?
EVERETT
I'm moving out.
JONO
Me too, she'll go thermonuclear.
ANGELO
Whatever, you guys are nutz.
SCENE
Enter Paige.
PAIGE [smiling]
What y'all talking about? I keep hearing Jubes and Logan's names, something happen to them?
JONO
Well, Love, Angelo thinks he has a chance with Jubilee.
PAIGE [whincing]
OH....Ange, there are alot of nice girls in town maybe...
ANGELO
YOU TOO CHICA?!?
PAIGE
Look, they are made for one another, I promise by Jubilee's 25th birthday they'll be together.
JONO
Why 25?
PAIGE
Logan's head is harder than a rock, it'll take Jubilee time to wear him down. She'll start around 18,he'll say no, runaway, comeback. On her 21st she'll try again and on and on until...
ANGELO
RIGHT, whatever.
PAIGE
He'll run, but I promise you something will bring him back or get her to him. It always does. SABERTOOTH, or some other psycho. [putting a dreaminess in her voice] She'll get hurt and then he'll gut the dogs, then he'll see how much he loves her and then they'll get married and then they'll have seven or...
ANGELO
OKAY OKAY....
JONO
Trust me, leave it bee.
EMMA [coming in from nowhere]
Besides, if she and Logan don't work out she'll just end up with Gambit.
JONO,ANGELO, EVERETT, & PAIGE
GAMBIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
