Yes. Oh. You must be .... one of my future students.
[ Charles did not expect this. He knows Logan and his own students or former students, but he has yet to meet the ones from the future, and it is a startling reality now that it's come to him. He has ever been what one would call insecure, but considering the boots of his future self, it is quite the thing to try and fit into. He is all too aware of how unkempt and messy he must look right then, compared to what she's used to. A half-baked Charles Xavier, decades before the one she knows. ]
Are you from the future Logan came from? The most unfortunate one we were trying to stop from happening?
[ Charles knows there are technically a variety of possibilities here. They have many decades of potential time that people could be from, now that he's aware of the full spread of time between now and then. She could be from any decade for all he knows, and for a moment, he truly hope that she is not from the future in question. He knows from Logan and Charles's mind what a terrible existence that was, and not one he would want for anyone else. ]
I apologize, I am from 1973. Before I knew most of you, but I am still me, if it matters.
[ Only not. Entirely. It's difficult and his head is going to hurt the closer they get to the city, so for now at least it is only aching from the confusion they have over timelines. Not telepathy problems. ]
