Hello. My name is Charles Xavier, though, so as not to confuse those who know my counterpart in this city, I'll be going by 'Professor X ( Read more... )

Mystique? I think I met her at the beach party. She seemed like a very nice girl.

Are you all right? I mean apart from...

Look, I'm sorry about the other day. I mean, that that happened to you. Are you feeling better?

[locked] xprofessor August 17 2011, 19:05:04 UTC

She's my best friend.

Of course. I'm quite recovered; it wasn't even the most dramatic even that happened to me this week.

[Awkward pause.]

But the kiss, ah.... Well. I don't -- yes.

[locked] goldn_boy August 17 2011, 20:53:15 UTC

I'm sorry to hear that, Charles. And glad you came through it all right. And as for the kiss, there's nothing to be ashamed of. You wouldn't believe what some people do in the throes of intense experiences like that. And drugs. I understand.

[He knows it was just adrenaline, gratitude... it doesn't have to be awkward, as far as he's concerned.]

Good, good. I don't have any romantic intent, just wanted to make that absolutely clear. And if I did, nothing could happen regardless, as I haven't much faith in my ability to be intimate without negative mental consequences for the other person.

[locked] goldn_boy August 17 2011, 23:01:50 UTC

Understood. And I'm avoiding romantic intent these days myself. But mostly because I haven't much faith in my ability to actually know what's going on. Which I think is the opposite problem.

[He pauses, but no, he really wants to ask this.]

I'm sorry, tell me I'm being too personal, but... really? Negative mental consequences?

[locked] xprofessor August 17 2011, 23:06:11 UTC

When I lose control, it can be very bad.

[locked] goldn_boy August 17 2011, 23:14:09 UTC

Ah.

I'm sorry, Charles. [He hopes, for Charles' sake, that he is wrong. If Charles is picking anything up, it's empathy, not pity.]

I think potential lovers could deal without the lobotomy.

I've always kept myself at arm's length, because of that.

[locked] goldn_boy August 17 2011, 23:21:13 UTC

So you've never...? At least I have no one to blame but myself. I hope that changes for you, Charles.

[locked] xprofessor August 17 2011, 23:22:33 UTC

I have, yes, but -- carefully, and absolutely never with someone I loved.

[locked] goldn_boy August 17 2011, 23:26:35 UTC

I actually wasn't asking if you were a virgin. I do hope you get to, one day. I think everyone should experience romance, at least once. Who wants it, that is.

[locked] xprofessor August 17 2011, 23:28:06 UTC

It's just -- not an option.

[locked] goldn_boy August 17 2011, 23:29:19 UTC

Okay. I didn't mean to pry, I... guess I'm taking some things a little personally these days.

I guess we all have our reasons.

[locked] xprofessor August 18 2011, 00:59:28 UTC

We do.

[locked] goldn_boy August 18 2011, 04:29:00 UTC

Well I'm... I'm always here to talk, prying questions aside.
