Notes: it's just a bit of a character piece for me to explore jubes' character a bit. 's why
its so short. didn't get the last ten or so comics of genx. i'm pretty sure i've got all the info correct, but if anything is not right please tell me so i don't keep it up.

Warnings: well looke here. no warnings whatsoever. shock of all shocks.

Disclaimer: generation x and it's characters do not belong to me. i make no money from this at all. they belong to the almighty marvel. who decided to cancel it...bastards.

Not So Bad

"Welcome to Burger World. Would you like to try something off our Gigantic Menu?"

She was living the worst nightmare any parent had for their children. A 17 year old high
school dropout flipping burgers, and living in her parent's basement with her twenty year
old boyfriend.

Ok. So maybe it wasn't quite that bad. She had graduated from highschool, sorta. She was
just a 17 and a half year old just taking a break from school, and while not actually on the
track to collegedom she knew more than your average collegiate dropout.

She could speak English, a bit of French, some Spanish, and fluent(almost) Shi'ar. She
knew more about medical science and biology than anyone should have to know. Ok, so
maybe her understanding of math wasn't all that great. But really, who needs to know the
quantum weight squared times pi of a circle's watchamacallit in a matrix format? Aside
from Beast. So she knows shes got at least a pretty solid understanding of a lot of college
course classes.

Her parents are dead. So she really wasn't living in their basement. Just her legal
guardian's basement. And that had been back in Weschester with Ange and Jono. Now
she just lives in an apartment provided by Emma. And as...charming as Angelo can
be(very rarely), he isn't exactly what Jubilee would call boyfriend material. Yep, just best
bud material.

"Ok. So ya want a Double Decker with tomatoes only, a Giant Chicken Nugget Meal with
barbecue and garlic dipping sauce, a Grease Ball loaded with onions, four Gigantic Fries,
two jumbo cokes, a Chunky Choco shake, and a Plucky Pecan Pie Piece? That'll be twelve
dollars and sixty-seven cents. Please pull up to the window."

Ok. So there wasn't anyway she could pretend that she wasn't a burger flipper. But hey,
she got to spend more time with Ange the fry guy, and it beat the hell outta being called
Sailor June.
