"So you're re-really a mutant?"

"Yes," Raven replied patiently.

"And your mutation makes you blue?"

She nodded, yellow eyes never leaving her niece's face.

"And that's why I'm t-turning gr-green?"

"Yes, it appears your mutation is plant-based: I would suggest a codename like 'Gaea' or 'Ceres.'"

"What's your codename?"

The blue-skinned woman drew herself up proudly, "I am Mystique."

Xander couldn't take it anymore, he began to shake with silent, semi-hysterical giggles.

"Wh-what's so f-funny Xander?" Tara didn't appreciate his levity, she was turning GREEN here!

"You have an Auntie M!"
