Jaime smiled at Rogue for a moment before addressing the other two.

"I'm good as well, it was an accident. No harm, no foul. It's nice to meet the both of you."

"Wait... so you all know each other?" she looked around at the three.

"Okie dokie, Rosemary." the Joker said, saluting him. "Whatever your... Kingping... fellow say. And it's ten million. Not ten thousand. No backsies!"

"Well, Mr. Ryder and me encountered each other earlier today while he was on one of his news stories," Rogue replied to Dodds, about to lie again. "He never met Jaime, though."

Rogue decided that it was best not to mention that said news story involved a talking space raccoon for fear of too many questions. Not that she would lie about it with backup, but she knew the story was rather unbelievable. Instead, Rogue decided to hold Jaime's hand. As she was wearing gloves, this would not hurt him, but Rogue wanted to hold his hand.

Jaime enjoyed the feeling of Rogue's hand in his own and gave a large bright smile.

"The only person I know here is Rogue."

"It's 'The Rose'," said the Rose, not that it made any difference.

The gang leaders took a moment to huddle together and further discuss. Some mobsters simply got up and left in a huff, taking their goons with them. The Big Man was among these people. The rest got out their checkbooks and wallets, and between them all scraped together the princely sum of five million, which Silvermane personally handed to the Joker.

"Here's to privatised war," said the Kingpin's agent.

"Oh, do shut up, Rose," said Silvermane.

"Whatever you say, Rosebud." the Joker said, picking up the checks and placing them inside the suits. "Well, if all of you don't mind, I have a few people to manipulate in order to start a war. HARLEY! Go fetch the car!"

The mallet-holding girl walked to the door and blew a kiss to the other mob bosses. "See ya later, boys!" was all she said before exiting the room. The Joker smiled, picking up his hat. "Is there anything else you gentlemen want to say? Perhaps a certain masked super you want to see in a body bag?"

Wesleigh nodded. She glanced over to the table her mother was sat at. Unfortunately at that moment their eyes met. Her mother smiled and enthusiastically beckoned her over. She was still sat with some family friends as well as a younger man. Looked about Wesleigh's age in all honesty.
She sighed and rolled her eyes.

"Well that's my mother over there, I'd better go. It was nice meeting you all."

"Thus far," said Silvermane, "The Big Man is the only one who's had vigilante trouble. I doubt he wants to talk with you."

"If they get in our way," hissed the Owl, "You'll be the first to know."

"So," Jack asked, "Do you two live here. You don't look..." he paused, not quite aure how to continue without being offensive, "like most of the residents."

"See ya," Rogue waved Ms. Dodd off... And then decided to add since she had noticed her eyes. "Do get some more sleep, though."

Rogue was not meaning to be rude as she did not know of the nightmares that plagued Ms. Dodd and she was just trying to give her advice, but it would probably seem rude to Ms. Dodd to just point that out.

"Many mutants look just like humans, ya know," Rogue frowned as she played with the white part of her hair, as if trying to point that out to Mr. Ryder. "Though even human-looking mutants could suffer from harsh treatment because of what they can do."

Jaime glanced over at the table she indicated to before he turned back to her to say goodbye.

"Hasta luego."

Jaime paused for a second before responding to Jacks question.

"No, i'm not a resident here."

Jaime turned to look at Rogue with a soft smile.

"I came here because I saw that the most beautiful, amazing woman on the planet was coming here, and I will take any excuse I can get to be near her."

Wesleigh smirked as she replied to Rogue.
"Oh believe me, I can but try. You kids have yourselves a good night. Mr. Ryder."
She turned and started taking the longest route possible to her mother's table.

Wow, he has it bad. Not that I blame him, thought Jack. Although far to young for him to be interested, she was very attractive and the white streak in her hair gave her a slightly exotic looked Aloud he said, "Sorry, I didn't mean to offend."

Rogue sunk in her chair and blushed profusely, somewhat embarrassed as well. After all, while he is kind of cute, she was still betting this relationship was only going to last a month at the most. She did smile at Jaime for the complement, though.

"I-It's alright," Rogue replied to Mr. Ryder.

Jaime, still holding Rogue's hand, raises her hand to his lips and lays a soft, gentle kiss on it as he stares into Rogue's eyes.

Rogue stared back into Jaime's eyes, still blushing and smiling.

"I-I'm glad ya came with me," Rogue eventually said to Jaime, unsure of what she could say. "Umm... err..."

As Rogue looked back at him while smiling it felt like Jaime's heart was going to leap out of his chest.

"As long as, as long as I can see your smile, I can't imagine being anywhere else."

"Umm... Could we talk in private for a bit?" Rogue was starting to get a little uncomfortable in her chair. After all, she did just meet Jaime today. While she was willing to have a relationship with him, things were going way too fast for her tastes. She had to discuss this with Jaime, but did not want to embarrass him.

Outside of the function, despite all evidence to the idea that it wasn't the greatest plan, a black limo was cruising it's way through the streets to the function, coming to a halt just outside of the building. The driver, an eager fellow, well-built but not terribly fit, stepped out of the driver's seat, running back to open the rear door, at which point, Tony stepped out, dressed down just a bit in black slacks and a plain white dress shirt, which he was still buttoning up...apparently he'd gotten dressed in the car itself. A faint blue glow was apparent in the middle of his chest just before the shirt was completely closed up, though unless people were actively staring, they might not have seen it. He also had a phone jammed to his ear and an exasperated look on his face as he nodded to his driver and started walking towards the event, fussing at rolling up his sleeves.

"Yes...yes...Pepper, yes, I'm at the thing, aren't I? No, I'm not going to-no...no...well I didn't agree to come to this, this is Wayne's event, not...yes, it is for a good cause, and I do want to donate to it, but...I don't care. I was in the middle of something very important...well, you're the CEO, why aren't you...right, right, whatever, face of the company, sure, whatever spin you want to put on it."

Tony finally finished rolling the sleeves of the shirt up to his elbows, ignoring the tie that his driver was chasing him with, sort of waving a hand to shoo the man away. "I did not promise to be on my best behavior. All you said was that I had to make an appearance. ...well maybe you should get it in writing next time for God's sakes Happy, I'm not putting that on!" The driver just sort of shrugged this off, returning to the limo without even a flinch, as Tony resumed his phone argument. "Yes, I yelled at him, I'm not...I don't care. I'm not going inside, if you want me to mingle, I'm going to mingle with the people. Pepper...Pepper...Pepper, you are not having a heart attack, believe me, I would know. Look, just go buy yourself some very expensive shoes on me, okay, I will not cause a PR nightmare by mingling with the crowd, and I'm confident I will not be murdered. Just trust me on that one, okay? ...and I will at least not say anything inappropriate to Bruce Wayne." He abruptly hung up the phone, tucking it into his pocket. "So long as he doesn't speak to me first."

Jaime nodded in response to her question.

"Of course. Do you want to step outside or is there somewhere else you have in mind?"

Storm nodded thoughtfully, considering.

"That's certainly a cause worthy of attention," she agreed. "Would you like me to connect you to the Academy? They might be able to help..."

She slipped a card out of her pocket, given to her when she was cleared to come to the event. It would be easier than writing down phone numbers, as she had for Rogue and the Beetle. She gave the older man a small smile.

"I hope your awareness campaign goes well," Storm said quietly, before moving off slightly.

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Tony Stark coming through the crowd. The girl wondered if Rogue had gotten into contact with him.

"We can step outside," Rogue left her chair, and went outside away from the crowds. Rogue sighed as she waited for Jaime to follow her. Once he did, she turned to him, with a serious expression on her face.

"I know ya want the best for me, and I kind of like ya," Rogue began to explain her issues with the relationship right now. "But things are going way too fast between the two of us... We just met each other today, and I think we ought to take things slower."

"If we are to be in a relationship, we need to tone things down some," Rogue concluded to Jaime. "Understand?"

Tony simply wandered through the crowd outside, smiling and nodding, shaking a hand here or there, though he was clearly distracted, not paying attention much, just exchanging the most simple of pleasantries, occasionally signing an autograph if paper got thrust at him or winking and grinning at any female that squealed at him, apparently just being the rich playboy everyone ascribed him to be.
