I'd be surprised if they weren't. They were all rather close.
[ And it's different from Charles, or any of the other mutants here. The three of them came from the same reality, closer in time and with more memories together than the rest of them. ]
This will give them a purpose too. Something to pour their energy into. I'm sure it will go well.
I'm more concerned what they'll do after it's over and they no longer have a project keeping them close to her. But I've already learned that they're grown men, and there's nothing I can do to fix their feelings. I'll worry anyway.
It would be better if I knew they'd share, but I surround myself with people who don't like sharing feelings.
[ As opposed to Charles, who loves to share feelings.]
This can and should be a continuing project. It could be something good for them to focus on as a more permanent effort. I know you're only testing the waters for now, so to speak, but we've both met many people with abilities here. Some of them who need a community that welcomes them, where we look out for one another. I believe this could be it.
If nothing else, how about a newcomer initiative? Close to Ororo's community center, where you could provide new arrivals with goods and resources. Support those who need it until they've found their footing here.
And they have their own ways of expressing their emotions. It's just not as easy for us all to be as open about it.
Maybe so. But right now we were talking about giving Scott and Logan something to pour their energy into.
[ Scott might have been alright with Erik being part of that effort, but Logan is unlikely to share in that sentiment. So. ]
It's a little more complex than that, in our current circumstances. I've come to realise, powers or not, we are all outsiders here. We all know how hard it was to first acclimate to this place, and even more so to those who know no one else here. Those who have no one else to rely on.

I'll be there, as you know.

It will be harder without her. Scott and Logan are devastated.

Although I think all of you are of the mindset that we'd rather be helping someone like us than the average person.

[ They have their bond, after all. Might as well give it a purpose. ]
