PETER! So, Josh was... really, really not looking forward to the counseling event because Josh has some trust issues where adults are concerned. So he avoided all of the counselors but obviously, he could only do that for so long and then Peter found him and was... actually kind of cool

Lol the mutants world. Okay, first Peter is actually familiar with the classic X-men comics, he knows Magneto is Eric and that Charles is psychic and he recognized Wolverine. He also knew the first movie! So he was familiar with how they explained the mutations and well, he's met mind-readers, mind-controllers, telekinetics and pyrokinetics back home, so the idea of people having special powers is very easy for him to accept. However the whole separatist MUST DESTROY EVERY MUTANT thing that is going on in Josh's world makes no sense to him.
Like, okay. He can understand the discrimination, but having people with special powers on your side is an asset, so the MUST DESTROY makes no sense to him. And magic is not something he can understand easily either, so MUTANTS LOST THEIR POWERS WITH MAGIC sounds like a cop-out answer to him

HAHA, YEAH IT IS all just... really, really messed up. And the actual cause for the reason why 98% of the mutant population woke up without their powers one day actually is sort of due to magic, it's just that none of the kids know about what really went down. But what happened is that a mutant named the Scarlet Witch (who is Magneto's daughter) one day had a total breakdown and was convinced by her brother to use her reality warping powers to change things in their world so that the mutants rule supreme. It... doesn't go over well! But ultimately what ended up happening is that the Scarlet Witch got pissed at her dad and to get back at him for being a shitty parent, she used her powers to get rid of all the mutants. Once again proving that the Lensherr-Maximoff family is the most messed up family in all of the Marvel universe

HELLO M'GANN! Josh thinks she's really super sweet, but also kind of... naive a bit? Like he's pretty side-eyeing her being buddies with Magneto because HE'S MAGNETO and can be kind of a creeper (though Josh is aware Magneto is working with the X-Men now back home, he's never actually interacted with him on Utopia, so he's still pretty leery of him). But he also knows she's got a ton of awesome powers and is therefore a badass, and firmly believes she can take care of herself but he's still gonna keep an eye on Magnetdad, just in case he tries anything
