Because. It's like your only qualification is beautiful mutations. You're so shallow. And they're so... so... empty. They don't even like you for you. They like the stuff that you spout at them about being different, and pretty, and... evolved sea creatures.
[ A heavy sigh as he leans back a bit, studying her expression. ] My only qualification is attraction-- it isn't as if I'm looking to pick up a girl to get married; [ He can't really believe he's discussing his one night stands with Raven. He rubs the bridge of his nose, ] Just for the night. I doubt they like me for me, Raven, I'm aware-- but I also don't have time for that sort of relationship-- I have enough trouble trying to make time to spend with you.
[ He rubs his thumb and index finger against the bridge of his nose, sighing. ] That's not what I meant at all. I make time for you because I want to, but that doesn't mean it's easy.
You act like I took her on a date or something, we had nice conversations, am I not allowed that? Besides, you were awfully busy doing the same with Hank and Erik so I hardly feel that you've got any right to complain.
Hank. [scoffs a little, remembering the sting of his rejection] Heh, right...
Well, I guess I just don't understand your need for one-night-stands when you have me. [blushes, realizing the insinuation of her statement, and hurriedly tries to fix it]
I mean-- not that we--- I just... we're always together. Aren't I enough to keep you entertained? [heavy sigh] I used to be.
[ Awkward hedging. ] Because, you're my sister and while I love you more than I'll probably ever love anyone-- I've not got... those kinds of desires when it comes to you, and I'm still a man-- I know you think me an old fart but I'm not quite there yet.
I hate that you lied to me, Charles, and I really don't want to trust you again but... [ He shakes his head. ] I do. I do trust you, and it makes me very angry that I do.

Okay. [clears her throat] So we're... clear... I didn't mean that you and I... you know. I just...
