"It's been a hot minute since we had this much fun!" Julian said as he stepped out of the portal behind Rockslide and Dark Red.. He then saw an old friend that he had not seen in a long time..
"Kubart is that your crazy mohawk that I see down there!" Spouted Hellion as he floated on down to Kid Gladiator..

"It's so good to see your ugly mutant face!" Kubark spouted back as both of them gave each other a brotherly hug..
"Seriously you look good.. I miss all of you guys at the school.. I always hope for X-Men business in the Shi'ar galaxy just so I can see my friends again.. I mean my mutant family." Kubark Said once they broke from the hug..

"Victor is talking to a new kid at the school while Pixie and her cousin Everly just performed with Dazzler and will be joining us soon." Sooraya said as she looked up at Roackslide and Dark Red and motioned for them to come down and join them..

"It's strange being out in space when we are not on a mission.." Cessily said to Bling when they both stepped out of the portal holding hands.. She gazed out the huge wall like window out into space..
"Our lives are never boring." She said as they both took a moment looking out at the stars and all the ships that were flying around..

As soon as they arrived into space, Ray immediately ran over to the nearest window and stared out of it. He couldn't even remember the last time he'd been off Earth, but he was sure that the X-Men had been back here since the last time he was with the team. Being in Shi'ar space was kind of uncomfortable since they were probably fighting the Shi'ar the last time he went on such an adventure, and he ne never went into space when he helped the Avengers with a few missions. But from memory, it was just as beautiful as he remembered. "This is still amazing," he muttered before he turned around to take in all of the lights and sounds that would make Las Vegas jealous. Ray was really glad he wasn't about to spend his own money, because he was going to have some fun here.

"Yes the Avengers know and it was apart of Iron Man's and Roberto's plan to bring more resources to The Avengers and S.H.I.E.L.D. in space to collect intel and more.. So this casino is also a hidden base for both groups.. Roberto and I are still Avengers and both in charge of intel for Toney and Fury." Sam jumped in as he put his arm around Keelie.. Smasher and Kubart quickly left as both being apart of the Shi'ar Imperial Guard that this was information that they did not want to hear.. “So You and Roberto are both working for the Avengers still and X-Men?” Dani asked as she overheard the conversation when she stepped out of the portal with a lot of mutants that were now filtering in from the club.
“I don’t know if that is very wise.” Dani said as she was not happy hearing that information. The relationship between X-Men and Avengers was a very complicated one. For Dani it was clear her loyalty was for the X-Men and her people.
She then walked over to Ray Madison, "I am so glad you're here an that you look very well." She greeted him.

“Yee agrees with Dani.” Rahne also jumped in as she gave Sam, Keelie and everyone a hug. She missed them so much.
“Seriously Sam and I am talking to you Roberto! This can get very messy for all Yee. The Avengers do not always treat us very good.”

Jordan had been talking with Roberto during their portal trip, and she was so happy that he had enjoyed the show. She knew all too well that she was still a bit rusty, but Berto's love and Alison's encouraging words about starting a record company made her feel warm and fuzzy inside.
The thing that didn't make her feel fuzzy or warm was talk about the relationship between the X-Men and the Avengers. She mentally tallied how many X-Men had been or were still Avengers, and it was at least five now, maybe six? She'd missed a bit while she had been in that mental hospital. She also knew she didn't want anyone questioning Berto or Sam's loyalty to the team.
She went up to Berto's side and held his hand. "Guys, maybe Sam and Berto are the guys to help bridge that gap? Between the X-Men and the Avengers, I mean? I know how bad things were before. I remember all the battles...just like you all do...no one wants that anymore."
Jordan reached up and kissed Berto. "If anyone can make it work, Berto and Sam can. Now, guys, can't we just set all that stuff aside for tonight? We have some happy couples to celebrate with here in the deep beauty of space. We can talk about this big stuff after the weddings. There always seems to be time for that, but not enough time for this..." she said as she started to twirl around. "Fun!"

"Thank Hisako for your kind words." Everly responded to Armor as Pixie grabbed both her and Hisako's hand and pulled them both through the portal..
"This is my first time at a space casino but not in space." Everly said as she walked over and looked out the window into space and smiled..
"My mutant ability has me connected to space in a way that I am still trying to understand. I can feel it inside of me."

“Well never mind it looks like we will be heading to a space casino. And yes I have been to many over the years and I am getting us some serious money tonight!” Bobby said to Duncan as he found himself very excited as they headed to down stairs to join the others. They were directly behind Emma and Cuckoos as they headed to the floor level.
"This is the best night Bobby! I am having so much fun and I am looking forward to going to a casino in space and I hope your a high roller!" They both laughed as they walked through the portal together..

"Well let me put another view to this.. Sam and I have full access to the Avengers and the trust of both Cap and Stark.. We are an intelligence asset to the Avengers but it does not go one way.. Whatever intel we gather is not just the Avengers but the X-Men as well..
"Also if we are going to heal the rift this is how we do it." Roberto said to everyone and then he then focused his attention on his wife Jordan..
"So I want to show you this!" Sunspot hands Jordan his phone opened up to pictures.. "These pictures is our home that I bought on Chandelier for us.. It's next door to Sam and Keelie. Look through and tell me what you think.. We can change and decorated anyway you like.."

"Exactly what Roberto said!" Sam added as he wanted the riff between the two groups to heal.. But he knew the Phoenix stuff was still too raw.. But Roberto and him were determan to move some sort of healing forward.. Sam was about to say something and he saw a face that he had not seen in many years..
"Ray is that really you?!" Sam was excited as he also heard Dani address him as well.. As he stood with his arm around Keelie..

"As bad as things were when I left, I'm glad to be back," Ray said to Dani with a smile. Though she wasn't his mentor was he grew through the ranks of the X-Men, he did recognize her for her advice through the years. Ray usually rolled with one of the rougher X-Men teams thanks to his connection to Weapon Plus so it wasn't often that they did end up working directly with each other. But when he did, Ray had no complaints. She'd probably saved his life in some way more times than he could count. "Especially glad that everyone seems to be fine"
Ray smiled again when he spotted Cannonball out of the crowd and waved. "Yeah it's me, not a Skrull or anything!" He said with a laugh. Out of all of the X-Men, Sam was the one Ray heard about the most since he helped the Avengers once in awhile before he fully retired and stopped with the heroics, though he hadn't seen or talked to him since he quit the X-Men after they rescued Hope. "What the hell are you doing in space?" As he joked with everyone, Ray noticed a fairly tall figure through the crowd dressed in all black that looked familiar, but since they were in space, Ray thought nothing of it.

Though he'd been all over the galaxy and the universe by this point, D very rarely spent time in Shi'ar space. Given that the Guardians of The Galaxy weren't quite all that welcome in Shi'ar space, probably because Shi'ar galaxy wasn't theirs to guard, D hadn't really come here since he joined the team. Recent events with the team gave him some downtime, and after hearing information on some leads for his search, he decided to check one corner of the universe he hadn't bothered to visit. As he moved through the casino, D looked over all of the various games, a lot of which had similarities with games found on Earth. With how big the universe was, it was always amazing to him how different cultures and species would end up coming up with the same exact thing. As passed by a blacklack booth, he looked up at the dealer and spotted a wall of prizes that people would be able to use some of their winnings for. It reminded him a lot like how casinos back home were trying to blend gambling with arcades to attract younger people. They were probably trying to do the same here. Normally, D wouldn't care and would've moved on, but one of the prizes that you could earn caught his attention. What money he had on him, he immediately slapped on to the table for the dealer. "Deal me in."
Whatever he saw, it was important enough to gamble all of his money away to get it.
