[ Her last memories of Luceti had been of snow. Looking around the forest and sensing the patterns of weather upon waking, however, told her it was now early autumn. Either she'd been gone several months or at least a year this time, she figured. Ororo wondered idly if there was a reason that she came and went like this. Something to ask the veterans of Luceti, she thought. ]
[ When she felt well enough, Storm took to the skies of Luceti: she knew her abiliities were dampened here in the enclosure, but she needed some time to reacquaint herself with Luceti's nature before looking for the village. She needed to calm herself, too; less powers also meant less control, and it would probably be better if she kept her emotions from starting an off-season monsoon. The random flashes of thunder and lightning from her annoyance at finding herself back in Luceti might attract unwanted attention, and how embarrassing would it be if someone noticed... ]
[ As soon as she centered herself, she changed course and headed for where she knew the village was. She remembered where the little house she'd stayed in previously was located as well, and checking the journal's callbox had let her know just who was still around and who from her world had arrived while she was "back at home." She figured there would be no harm in dropping by the house unannounced. Hopefully there was someone in House 16 to greet her! ]
[ Storm's first order of business after moving back into her old room at House 16 was to visit the stores for some essentials: the clothes shop being her first stop. As soon as she'd changed into and picked up some familiar clothes, she stepped back outside - and when it was safe, Ororo called down a bolt of lightning from the sky to strike the damned New Feather dress into ash. Subtle? Not in the least, but she had to vent somehow, right? Right. ]
[ Her next stops include the Item Store, and the grocery (to re-stock the house's food supply with some vaguely nutritious food), but her final stop of the day, despite the groceries and other items in her arms, would be Cloud Nine. Some of her clearer memories of Luceti were of the quaint little club, and Ororo rather hoped it would jog a few more of her memories... ]
[ Anyone in town is free to recognize or even bump into her as she makes her way around the village! Storm will be all over the place in general, seeking to re-familiarize herself with the town again. ]

[She smiles lightly]
Do you have friends from your world waiting here?

Yes, I understand that. Ororo, perhaps I could help you in that regard.
no subject
Ah... could you, really? [No one's really helped her in that regard. She was mostly self-taught, other than some basic meditation techniques from her youth. And she was in full control by the time she met Charles. But this...]
no subject
In the short term, that will have to suffice. In the long term, I can teach you. Meditation and self-control were things I had to master centuries ago, and I'm willing to teach.
no subject
It was jarring, not to have sole grasp over the elements. She felt a little lost.]
... Ah. That's very kind of you, to offer.
no subject
Its the least I can do. Teaching is one role my kind fills, and I am sure you'll pick up on it quickly enough.
no subject
... It's odd. Normally I am the one in the role of the teacher.

Well, with power comes the need for control. A lesson everyone, even gods, need to learn.
no subject
That's right, which makes the existence of a school for young mutants to learn it all the more important. [She's definitely proud of what she does.]

Almost daily. That they are teenagers might factor into that, honestly. They are a handful and a half. [Despite her words, she's smiling pretty fondly.]
