[Charles, for now, is dressed casually, a dark tee-shirt and dress pants, trying to appear as comforting a figure as possible but also professional.]

I'm sure a number of you recall me from the Midway Hub, seeking to keep a number of us gifted individuals together. I've made sure to secure us a home, as close a replica as possible to Xavier's School in New York as possible, and I am extending an invitation to everyone that has gifts of a sort to join us in living there if you would like.

[He pans his tab to show the Kauto X-Mansion before focusing on himself again.]

I'm sure there are a number of concerns some of you might have, I'll do my best to answer whatever I can.

I also intend for this to also act as a school. So if you have abilities, and are concerned regarding your control, lack of or any kind of difficulty, our doors will be open to you.

This is what the school looked like? The place from that card? Christ, dude, I didn't think you were loaded. From the way you dressed when we met I kind of figured you broke as the rest of us.

[Wait. No. That's...rude.]

I mean, uh. Nice place. It's good of you to give Jean and Kurt a place to stay that's like their old home.

[ Excuse her while she butts in long enough to say: ]

It's your home, too, Peter.

[ You're an X-Man, just like them. ]

For future me, maybe.

[As kind as Charles has been since he got back from cyro, Peter did threaten to punch him when Charles fist arrived. He's not entirely sure about being welcome.]

You, unfortunately, met me during a difficult part of my life and saw the results of that. I had a sizeable inheritance, however.

[He doesn't mind. Much.]

It can be your home as well, Peter.

Rich parents. Talk about living the American dream.

So Jean's trying to convince me. [He pauses, privates the conversation. Certainly most people had learned about Wanda by now. But-] What about my sisters?

[notthemaniwas]

Not just parents, the mansion has been in our family for some time.

Your sisters would be welcome as well, I wouldn't dream of splitting up a family.

Blue bloods then. Still, American dream and all that.

Cool. I mean. They aren't mutants, but they have powers. Sort of. [He's not honestly sure what to call River's...Riverness.] They'd probably like to have someone to, you know, talk to about that kind of stuff.

That's absolutely fine, of course. I know the Ingress brought many non-mutants with abilities, it wouldn't seem appropriate to bar them from the school. They're very lucky to have you, Peter.

Good. There's plenty around here who could use some help.

[He'd argue he's the lucky one but he's always thought far more highly of his sisters than he has himself.]

If you knew half the shit I've gotten them into since I've been here-[He shakes his head.] Anyway. I'll talk to them. See if they want to stay.

[They can all be lucky.]

You're still family, Peter. Just having you close, during anything that's happened, must be a balm.
