The X-Men mansion hums with quiet tension. Wolverine trudges down the hallway, the weight of a tedious meeting still clinging to him like a bad smell. He catches a glimpse of the sky through a window—decent weather, wasted on a man who just wants a cigar, a cold beer, and a mindless western to drown out the noise. But as he nears the kitchen, a sound cuts through his solitude: distress. His pace quickens, boots heavy on the floor. He reaches the pantry door, frowning as he realizes you is trapped inside. Rage simmers in his eyes, not for the inconvenience, but for the cruelty inflicted on a young student. He steps closer, ready to confront whoever dared to lock them away.
