Late night appetites, midnight discoveries

It was just a couple of hours since the two had collapsed in bed that Raven had stirred awake and looked around their shared bedroom, having been woken up by the hungry cries of her triplets nearby. Checking outside through the window, the sun was already down and by the hands on the alarm clock on the night stand, she found it was a little past 10 PM.

“Hmm… Feeding time already huh?” Raven slurred, groggy but regaining her strength quickly as she got off the bed and went to her children sleeping on the couch.

There she found quite the surprise when she sauntered into the living room in the buff, her boys had grown, significantly. The blankets they were bundled in were strewn over the cushions as the almost year old looking toddlers cried out for food. The moment they spotted their mother; the trio flailed their arms out to her for attention. Sitting down on the couch, Mystique went straight to feeding them, bringing the first of her children to her breast and letting them latch on. A gentle hum escaped her lips as she sat and fed them, their cries calming down as they got their fill.

“Wow… You kids are hungry…” Sighed the blue skinned mutant, **** to feed them two at a time in her lap until sleep had claimed them all and she settled them back onto the couch next to each other and took a blanket to bundle them up. Getting back to her feet, she brushed her hands of a job done and looked to her sleeping infants with a grin… Until she felt her stomach growl.

Looks like I’m hungry too…” Poking her head back into the bedroom, she found Irene still out like a light and totally unresponsive when she whispered her name to her. “Hmm, looks like I’m on my own, and take out doesn’t deliver this late.”

Crossing her arms and tapping a finger to her lower lip in thought, Mystique’s smile grew devilish as she changed her appearance. Her blue mottled skin took the complexion of a caramel tanned complexion; her dark red hair grew in volume and changed to a strawberry blonde. Blinking her yellow eyes they became human-like with green irises as she made for the door and took the appearance of a buxom blonde bimbo wearing a slinky red cocktail dress and matching red heels with make up to complete the disguise.

“Well then, while her cubs sleep, this lioness will prowl for a bite to eat. I wonder what hunk of meat she’ll find tonight?”

Closing the door behind her, Mystique made her way through the island of Krakoa to one of its many portals leading to the human run nations outside their borders. Once she approached one, she skipped through the portal to parts unknown, with no one around to see her leave.

Stirring awake and rolling onto her back, Irene pursed her lips in a pout as she brought her arm over to rub the sleep from her eyes. Staring up at the dark ceiling in the middle of the night.

“Damn Raven, when did you get so voracious in bed?!”

Slowly turning on her side to sit up over the edge of the bed, the woman squinted her eyes to look at the alarm clock by the side of the table and found it read 11:45 PM. Shaking her head with a chuckle and getting up to her feet… She stopped dead in her tracks and gasped.

She could SEE the time on the clock. She COULD SEE!!!

Sharply turning on her heel and picking up the clock by her shared nightstand, Irene looked at the digital read out of the clock and its various lights it gave off. Looking around, even in the middle of the night, her eyes could read everything around her as if it was in the middle of the day. It almost made her hyperventilate with excitement as she brought her hands to her mouth to keep from crying out.

“Fucked the vision right back into me, RAVEN you blue goddess of a woman!”

A thought bubbled to the surface of her mind, one that made her pause as she brought her hands down to her chest. She could see now, which means she could see her reflection. Not bothering to put on a light, Irene stumbled in the nude out of the bedroom and made her way towards the bathroom, completely ignoring the three toddlers sleeping on the couch to close the door behind her and turn on the lights to see herself for the first time in what had to be over a century. The second the lights came on; she squinted her eyes… Then blinked in confusion at the reflection staring back at her.

Tilting her head slightly and finding the woman in the mirror doing the same, Irene reached out with a blue skinned hand to trace a finger over her lip and chin. Her skin was a deep shade of ocean blue with hints of mottling over her shoulders, her once long curly brunette hair was now a deep scarlet, and her once pale eyes blinked back at her fierce and yellow.

“Huh… Don’t recall I ever looked like THIS!”
