I know. ( A beat, he faintly smiles some. ) Maybe Cable will have better luck.

( Being the old and grumpy guy that he is. Patience or not, he knows the other mutantโ€” his half-brother is protective of both himself and Scott. He's felt it. So he knows he'll do whatever he can to not only keep them safe, but to be there for them in whatever capacity that might be. Maybe it's the father in him. Not like he can relate there, just go off what he feels and picks up on. )

He just needs to figure his place out here. I can relate. But I mean... at least it's not as if I know Scott Summers at all in any capacity, so. Not much to compare him to. It might help a little. Maybe. We'll see.

( At the suggestion, the sound he makes is a soft one of amusement and he ducks his head for a moment. )

Yeah. Jean's here, too, so. You know.

( His mother who would definitely know Scott Summers best. Shrug of his shoulders, he looks back up, flicking his hair out of his face as he does. )

I don't know. Conversations I haven't had yet. Not sure when I will. ( Glancing off, he drags his teeth over his bottom lip for a moment. ) I just hope it works out for him.

( For Scott here. )

( It's certainly... a thing.

He gives it a second or two after she pats the space beside her there on the ledge before he goes and takes a seat there, hands still in his pockets and a leg stretched out some. Looking ahead, he mulls that over. About how, for the most part, the mutants here are from relatively different points in time, if not a completely different Earth. )


Just a bit, yeah. Especially when you feel like the outsider around everyone else.

( He's mostly thinking of Scott there, but. He has the same feeling at times, too. )

I don't really see how something as stupid as camp could be considered a mission to prove your world is worth saving. But I'm also guessing it's not anything we're supposed to really understand just yet.

( Or maybe ever. Hell if he knows. )

( He hums at her guess concerning their recent camping expedition and looks back ahead. Itโ€™s definitely something to consider and something to keep an eye out for going forward, he thinks. All the trouble theyโ€™d gone to in order to assist and even retrieve Auroraโ€™sโ€ฆ brother. Strange to think artificial intelligence can have family like that, but. Seems to be a thing. Here he is hoping their efforts wonโ€™t have been in vain. )

Guess weโ€™ll just have to keep all eyes open.

( Looking back to her with those blue eyes of his, he lets his gaze linger for a little before he offers her a quiet smile, just barely there. )

How are things with you besides having all this responsibility on you now?

( Both with Scott and this building she has for herself. )

( He canโ€™t help the blink he gives when she goes and says what she does there, gaze trailing off some, bemused for only a moment before that smile is gently touching his lips again. Leaning over a touch, he bumps his shoulder to hers, gently. )

Feel like this is a trick question.

( What woman doesnโ€™t want to put a man in their place? Still, his words are playfully soft and heโ€™s looking ahead again, letting go of a sigh there on his lips. )

Iโ€™m good. Figuring things out, like I said. But I get the feeling a lot of us are here to some degree.

( Mutants, he means. )

( When her head touches his shoulder, he looks to her with a gentleness that's almost hidden before he lets his gaze drift off across the room, quiet there as he sits with her on the ledge. A glance down, hair falls in front of his face. )

Feels like it.

( More so back on Earth than here, but. Who knows. Maybe thatโ€™ll change with the missions or everything else. Either way, he tips his head back โ€” flicks those bangs out of his face โ€” and looks up as he sits there, hands coming out of his pockets to curl fingers under the lip of the ledge. )

Guess all we can do is take it one day at a time, right?

( Out of the corner of his eye he looks to her โ€” picks up on something without meaning to. Sometimes he hates that. Feeling everything around him. Always a gentle brush across his own feelings and mind, like a cool breeze on a summer day. Itโ€™s easy enough to ignore it, just as itโ€™s easy enough to take in a deep breath and slip into everything that comes with that breeze.

Gentle, fingers reach over to take hers, a squeeze given as he looks to her. Pensive. )


I wonโ€™t let anything happen to youโ€ฆ and Iโ€™m not saying that because I donโ€™t think you can handle yourself. I just mean Iโ€™ll look out for you and if you need me, Iโ€™ll be there.

( A beat, he looks down to their fingers, hand holding hers. )

You got me.

( The brush of her thumb has his eyes fall shut for just a moment and he opens them again with that softness there in the bright blue shade he wears. Sheโ€™s always wanting to know about him โ€” where heโ€™s from and what heโ€™s thinking or feeling without prying it out of him. She feels guarded sometimes with her own things, like Quentin, but. Maybe they all are to an extent. Maybe theyโ€™re all carrying their own traumas, guilts, mistakes, and anger that theyโ€™d rather just not talk about. Itโ€™s easy enough to feel it there on the surface of oneโ€™s mind, another thing entirely to force open the door and take a look with or without consent.

So he leans again โ€” presses his brow to hers and looks to her, hand still holding hers. )


Noโ€ฆ but if you want to, you can. Or you can show me, if thatโ€™s easier.

( Telepaths and all. )

( He's not offended that she chooses to tell rather than show. It's whatever easiest for her, he'd simply given her the option for either; letting her know he was open to both.

When she speaks, he listens โ€” keeps his brow there to hers, but will let her pull back if she needs to. He... more or less gets the gist of it โ€” some things he might not fully understand, but. For the most part, he seems to get what she's saying. Julian had mentioned Krakoa and how it was no more, apparently. Something the other seemed upset about despite his not going into it all that much. Again, things they all seem to rather not want to talk about, or is just easier not to.

Dropping his gaze down to their hands, it's his turn to brush the pad of his thumb over the back of her hand and he licks over his lips before he lifts his gaze back up to meet hers. )


It'd be easier, wouldn't it? ( He smiles a little, though it's more bittersweet. ) To just fix it all with the things we can do. Shut someone up if they get on our nerves.

( He's had those thoughts himselfโ€” he's done similar here and there. So he drops his gaze again โ€” focuses on the way her hand looks in his. Soft and delicate compares to his own. )

I think we've all been there at one point or another. ( Telepaths especially. ) So I know it's hard but... I don't know. I think you're doing pretty good so far?

( Sitting there with her on the ledge, hand still in hers, he gives her words another thought or two and offers her a bit of a smile for reassurance. )

Yeah. Trying to fix it but making it worse... seems like our calling.

( The calling of telepaths, that is. )

But trying's better than not. I mean... even if we mess up when trying, as long as we strive to do better or realize our mistakes... I don't know. I think it's better than not caring.

( At that he sighs โ€” looks off around them. )

I've been around enough people who don't care or only care about themselves.

( Maybe he does have too much faith in her or those that he knows and cares for, but. He has to have something to hope for, doesn't he? Since it seems like there isn't any hope for himself, so. Might as well direct it somewhere else.

At that, he smiles โ€” looks down again and brings her hand close to him. Drops a kiss down to the back of it, soft and sweet. )


That's all I'll ever ask. Is that you try.

( The kiss to his cheek gets an arm to wrap around her waist, holding her there close against him while simultaneously leaning into her, head ducked and smile faint on his lips. )

Think Iโ€™m good. For now anyways.

( Because who's to say how heโ€™ll feel tomorrow or if a nightmare will grab hold of him tightly tonight or some other night. Always up in the air, just as navigating through this life he has for himself here seems to be as well. Something heโ€™s still getting the hang of in various ways. )

What about you?

Julian's shown me a bit.

( They'd played some together, too. He can see why it's something people mindlessly do? Just as he can see the appeal of television and the various shows that air on it. Letting his gaze linger on her, his smile is both soft and warm. )

But you're free from any questions.
