[oom: The state of affairs cannot go on much longer. Sooner or later, the winner takes all.]

Guppy is by the fire, watching his sandwich.

It's not doing much.

"I'm more likely to have people chasing me, than the opposite.I sometimes think X-Gene should have 'trouble magnet' as part of the definition," She remembers what she originally wondered. "You're not eating? You looked as if you thought YOU might get bitten," waving at the sandwich.

"Actually I know several X-gene positive people here, and they don't seem to have as much problem as they do at home." Guppy says reassuringly.

Glancing down at his sandwich. "Oh yeah, I sort of forgot. I was just thinking."

He picks up the sandwich and takes a bite.

Sooraya's relieved to see that the sandwich doesn't attempt to retaliate. With all the weirdness of the past few days, she's not sure she'd be surprised.
And Guppy passed a sort of test, though he doesn't know it, by not reacting badly to the mention of X-genes(i.e., being afraid or oh, trying to SHOOT her.). Sooraya's polite, but not always the most trusting of people.
"Rachel Grey, you mean. Are there others?" wistfully.

"Actually I didn't know Rachel was, I've only met her once or twice. Yes, there are others."

Putting down the sandwich.

"But since being X-gene positive seems to attract such degrees of racial hatred back home, I treat the information under medical confidentiality rules. Which means I'm afraid you'll have to find them yourself, unless they give me permission to disclose it to you. I can however assure you that you are certainly not alone here. And as I said, there isn't as much trouble anyway. So many different people from different backgrounds."

Sooraya mutters something, annoyed at her own indiscretion. He's right, and she isn't about to argue the point.

"It'd be almost easier if it was race, maybe..." she trails off, shakes her head. "Don't ask them, even if you can.
We'll find each other if that's what's meant to happen."

He nods, smiling.

"Okay. Good luck."
