"Unfortunately, that's still something we're learning to deal with, step by step. It's never the same for each child. There's no formula we can follow to try and help their anger. All we can try and do is work with each of them." And, one day, perhaps bring them into another fold if their anger can be redirected, tamed into something that would be safe to have on the X-Men, but that was still very... uncertain. The deaths still hung over Charles' head too much to attempt it again, but one day it would come.
Then Aurus decided to drop a bombshell.
Charles' expression fell in such an immediate way as to suggest that no, Hank hadn't come to talk to him about anything or hadn't mentioned certain parts of this. For him, all he could think was that it suddenly made sense that he hadn't see Hank for the rest of the day, but it wasn't so uncommon as to be hugely noteworthy. Still, what had happened between these two that Hank would have even guessed at such a thing!?
A hand came up, gesturing in the classic 'one moment' before he said flatly, "...what. happened?" What had Aurus told? Why was this even being discussed between those two at all!?
