[He's an idiot if he really thinks that's the only sort of comfort he can offer. There's...other ways and OH GOD now he can hear her trying not to think of...dirtier things and she's sort of failing at it and this is exactly why they shouldn't be able to read each other's minds. The more she gets herself worked up about this, the more she wants more cuddles which only serves to knock down another domino and start a new twisty path in the awkward rube goldberg machine that is Bennett's thought processes.

She pulls herself away from him and frowns because her brain is going off on a tangent about how jeeze, Bennett. You're being super clingy and all you can think about is being even more clingy so stop clinging because now is not the time to be hanging all over Topher and he probably doesn't want to be clung to anyway because no one likes a cling so it's best to just move away and...he can hear all of this nonsense too.

With a brain like this, it's really no wonder why she's completely bonkers.]

You're not, you're not a bald professor in a, you have lots of hair and aren't in any way paralyzed and I-I'm not a red head.

[It's probably a miracle she remembers that much about the X-Men.]
