[At that he snorts, a scant bit of tension broken.] You'll have a harder chore of it now. I'm the most wanted man in the world.

[Even so, he has no intention of being taken again. He'd take out anyone who tried.]

[athru]

I'm quite good at blending in.

[ And, she hesitates... ]

I'm not exactly 'unknown' either.

[grandstanding]

You're not. [He knows that, as well as he knows his own notoriety. All the papers, and the news, that had discussed Erik's actions had by the same hand discussed Mystique's. She was elevated into the hero role; he was painted as the villain. Typical of the American news, though he's certain similar tales were being spun all around the world, for those who cared to listen.]

Maybe I'll grow a beard, throw them off.

[athru]

[ It's obvious that Raven is stupidly uncomfortable with the idea of being a hero - they all knew the real reason she'd been there, and the fact the president had never been her target. She'd been there for Trask, and it'd been Charles that had saved that man's life, not her. If it wasn't for Charles... The world would be different.

Erik, though - she shakes her head and manages a laugh, biting the inside of her cheek to tame it. ]

I'm sure you'd look very dashing.

[grandstanding]

Try to contain your amusement.

[athru]

You'd look like a thin, angry Santa Claus.

[grandstanding]

I'm not sure which part of that offends me most.

[athru]

[ She's snorting, now, lifting a hand to cover her mouth as she turns away. ]

You can leave Charles lots of presents, and you look good in red...

[grandstanding]

Stop.

[athru]

You didn't ask me nicely.

[grandstanding]

And I'm not going to, after that display.

[athru]

You're not very jolly.

[ But she does stop, settling into the water and closing her eyes, head tilted back. ]

Have you been enjoying the planet, at least?

[grandstanding]

[He just huffs. His lack of jolliness is well noted.]

Very much so. Just being outside without a mask is wonderful.

[athru]

They were awful, weren't they? They bit into my skin all the time.

[ She crosses her arms, shaking her head. ]

It wasn't too bad inside, though.

[grandstanding]

[He doesn't think it surprising that Raven found the mask chafing. By this stage, she's probably fairly unused to anything being on her skin.]

That's damning it with faint praise.

[athru]

[ She's trying, at least, considering a new place and nakedness don't often go hand in hand - but most of the clothes she wears she makes herself, so she might as well be naked for how it can feel at times. ]

I wasn't going to sing songs about it, was I? My date was the only good part of that nonsense.

[grandstanding]

Ahh, yes. Hank mentioned that. [He lets that hang there, how much Hank told him being up to the imagination. It was essentially nothing.]

[athru]

Hank is such a gossip.

[ She huffs, crossing her arms. ]

He's told everyone.

[grandstanding]

[Now there's a title he never thought anyone would award Hank. He'll have to use it against the man later. Captain Gossip.]

I'm sure he's just... excited.

[athru]

[ And First Mate Mystique, of course. ]

I was, too. I suppose I just didn't have anyone to be excited at.

[grandstanding]

Other than Hank, I assume.

[athru]

Well, yeah, but I think he already knew how excited I was.

[grandstanding]

I don't quite see the importance of sharing the experience with others, personally. [His own enjoyment of his dates is private. Both he and Charles tend to agree on this; indeed, most people in Kyriakos never realised they were together, outside of their teams.]

[athru]

I get that. I think it's just... New. And it's fine, I don't really have anyone to share it with except Charles, and he seems to take it well enough. [ At least Raven knows - and she's already told Charles just how okay she is with it now. She might not have been, not at first, but now - now she's content. ]

[grandstanding]

You talk to him about it?
