[ Wtf, COMPASS. Of course it'd be crap like that. He's not going to ask about home because if she didn't want to go back obviously it isn't that fun. And that's her business, not his.
Lol training. A long suffering sigh, but there's almost a laugh in it. Literal pain in the ass as it is, Magik is basically the best kind of trainer here for him, and ngl, he likes not sucking at everything. ] My schedule's pretty packed. [ the sarcasm ] When's good for you?
I am a teacher. [ Let that sink in before she explains further. ]
No one gets used to death. [ Look, in her world people die and come back all the time. And even they're not okay with it. ] That is why you will not do it a fourth time.
You are going to be the next Jean Grey at this rate.
[ Blink. Stare. He knows she's from the same place Erik is but not how closely they're involved with each other. ] Does Erik have a legit school of weird people he just processes into soldiers? Is that seriously what that is? Like a commune or cult or something? I knew it was a cult...
[ judging a little. Not Satan because Satan is perfect, but judging Erik 5ever. He swallows at 'no one gets used to death' because it's true. its the most goddamn terrifying thing ever and each time is all that much more so because he's just thinking is this the time i'm not going to wake up. So the tone is a little more vacant, but still nonchalant as he can make it. ]
The school is meant to be a place of learning. But things for mutants are not so stable. Myself and others, including an older version of Erik that you know, are wanted criminals. And anyone who supports us is targeted as well.
[ In her world Erik and her are like... friends it's pretty weird tbh.
But she's been down the death road before. It's still a sensitive topic for her. ]
She was a person in our world who would die and return to life. A lot. And it was not her mutant ability, but I am beginning to question that.
Mutants. You seriously call yourselves mutants? [ He'd been joking when he kept calling Erik's meetings Freak Club but wow. ] Wanted for what?
[ Not that that'll really change his opinion on her much, given, if anyone knew what Jackson had gone through, not only would he be in a cell, he'd be in a government lab probably.
A snort for that. ] I'm good not sharing that one. [ a beat ] I almost grew wings after one time. Not sure if that's a pro or con.
