[Evan was not the musician his cousin is, but that hadn't prevented him from soliciting guitar lessons from Jono between classes, when he could pin the elusive Professor Starsmore down for an hour. Today, he's attempting to put those lessons to use as he sits in the music room, an electric guitar in his lap, as he plays a song Jono taught him. He's a little flat, and his playing isn't as skillful as his teacher's, but it definitely sounds like he's trying his hardest.]

[Filtered to musicians in the castle]

Umm...does anyone know how to play the guitar? I was getting lessons from my cousin Jono back home, but we only got in a few before I came here. I'll pay you back however if I can, if anyone can teach me.

So...what the heck was all of that? People acting weird and stuff. Was that a loss?

[He can whistle? That counts right?]

I don't know how to play, but if you find someone that can I wouldn't mind joining to learn too.

[A brief pause before he writes.]

If that's okay of course.

[As far as Evan is concerned, it ttly does.]

Oh, that's perfectly fine by me. The more, the merrier I say!

...though I suppose that all depends on who we get to teach us. My cousin Jono probably wouldn't do it, I only just barely got him to start teaching me before I came here.

[Hey, it's pretty darn good whistle too.]

I suppose you're right. Well, here's hoping there's someone who wouldn't mind teaching in the first place.

If they don't want to teach us together, then I can always wait until after.

I'll let you know if I get a response, and I'll ask on your behalf too, if you want. What's your name?

I'd appreciate it.

I'm going by Break at the moment, and you are?

Hey, no problem! I'm Evan Sabahnur, but my friends back home call me Genesis.

Well it's nice to meet you Evan. Genesis eh? It has a nice ring to it.

It's nice to meet you too, Break. My Uncle Cluster first gave me the name Genesis, he said that it meant that I'm "a beginning, instead of an end", though I'm still not entirely sure what he meant. Still, the name stuck.

Well maybe one day you'll figure it out. Regardless, it doesn't seem like a bad name to be stuck with.

[A beginning, instead of an end huh? It kind of reminded him of how he had chosen his name when he decided to break away from the past.]

Yeah, there are definitely people with worse codenames, where I come from. Heh...there's a girl named Ellie who's codename is "Negasonic Teenage Warhead"

[He chuckles. He hadn't been entirely truthful with Break, knowing exactly why Fantomex had given him the name Genesis. It was because he wanted Evan to become a hero, the antithesis of his genetic predecessor, Apocalypse.]

"Green Biker Dude," enough said.

[That gets Evan laughing in earnest.]

There's really someone with that name where you come from? I feel kinda bad for them, heh.

Well, it's what I called him... It kind of stuck after that.

Ac-acting weird? What do you mean by that?

[Cue a rather upbeat British voice over the journal. He sounds a little tired, but more stunned than anything.]

Ehehe... ac-actually... it'd be great if you could... could maybe uh..Fill me in? I seemed to have lost 3 days completely.
Gone. New year and I didn't even realize it.

Well, I don't know a lot about it, but I guess a bunch of people in the castle like...had some kind of loss or something that made them act like the opposite of what they'd normally be like. Heroes acting like villains, lazy people wanting to do a lot of stuff, that sorta thing.
