[ Funny thing is, Karen's right. Anybody else, any other time, he'd have brushed off the question. She's the first person he's said something to. In a way, it'sā€”there's him and Rogue. That's it. The others? Charles, Scott, they were never there. And he doesn't wanna get into it with them. Charles saw what he saw, but God knows the Professor doesn't need to hear about it more.
Karen's not from the same world. Or not the same timelineā€”however it works. It's not her war. Maybe that makes it feel okay to tell her about it. ]
I don't know. [ He sits back with his beer. ] I was sent on a last-ditch mission. Woke up here.
[ Let's just say it didn't pan out. Not the way he'd hoped, at least. Charles says Raven never took the shot, but what the hell good does that do if he's here? If they both are? What about the others? Storm? The kids?
He chews on the end of his toothpick. Fuck, it doesn't matter. He didn't mean to dredge this up the first damn time Karen showed up to talk. ] I did stack a lot of crates back in the day, though. Got pretty good at it.
