I'm glad you're doing okay, though, Hank.

[he huffs a little bit] I have to be.

[She rolls her eyes up to look at him.] Well that's a fucking stupid thing to say when we're talking shit like this about Charles. Come on, Hank.

[he glances down at her, blinking a bit widely] What?

It's neither of those.

It's . . . I know I'm not entirely okay, and I know I won't be for a while, but when it comes to Charles, Erik and Raven - I can put my problems aside to be okay for them.
It isn't - I don't want to make it sound like it's some sort of competition of who had it worst. But when these things happen - they're the ones in the middle of it all. Sure, I'm there, and I'm involved, but - not like they are.

Charles is great when it comes to giving advice he doesn't take himself. [but he nods, softening] They do it too, but I'm sure their reasons are different. If you can even get them to speak about it.

[Sigh.]
So what happened that's got everyone so shook?
no subject
[he reaches up to rub at the side of his neck, sighing] Did Charles tell you anything?

A powerful mutant, yes. En Sabah Nur - or Apocalypse. He - mm, he manipulated Erik at a difficult time. [which is oversimplifying it, but doesn't really feel like he can speak of the details. It was Erik's part to tell] And he kidnapped Charles to - essentially possess him. He wanted his power.
You have to understand, though - it's more difficult, because a lot of - what we spoke about here, it didn't go home with us. Things we had planned out or promised to do. Before all of this, Charles and I hadn't seen Erik or Raven in ten years. So all of this happening was sudden, and then - coming back here sort of made it even more complicated.

Beat that into his head if you have to. You have my blessing.

I'm pretty worried about him. But I'm still figuring out the best morale strategy. He's kind of difficult to understand sometimes.
no subject
That's an understatement. I've known him going on twenty years and I still don't understand him at times.
But I think . . . at least with Erik, showing him that you're there for him helps a lot. What you told him helps, too.

All I can really do is let him know I'll listen if he needs it. Otherwise? [he shrugs a shoulder] I'm good for distractions.
