[Now he looks uneasy at the mention of Anakin. He seemed like such an important person to Ahsoka...
but he knows how that story ends. And that's something else to eat at him.]
That's a tough one. [He hesitates but then he goes on, trying not to let the movies influence his thinking. How can he know for sure that they're the 'real' story, after all?]
I think I know how he felt, believe it or not. When something seems like a simple fix... and it looks like you can change things back to the way they were. Or even better! [For him and Rogue to restore Mystique together, as a family...]
When that kind of thing doesn't work out... It can be tough. A-and it's hard to understand the other side. [Rogue.
He's pulled back from the hug now, but he keeps his hands on her shoulders as he talks to her.]
But it's not impossible. I'd like to... believe in your hope. That- that the two of you can get along again. It just... takes time, and it takes faith.
