[ Peter, too, is surprised how easily that came out. Plesantly surprised, that is. It's something he's happy to hear even if he won't say as such anytime soon. There's a lot he isn't about to say anytime soon like how he kind of enjoys the way that Kurt rests in his arms. The circumstances are shitty, sure, but if it had been other time he couldn't really say he would mind.

That's a thought that's tucked away for later (read: never) though because Nightcrawler is, in fact, bleeding. He's looking worse by the minute too with that foggy stare and - it might just be his imagination, honestly - getting colder under his grasp. They're on a time limit and the fastest kid alive isn't about to live up to his legacy of being just a little too late this time if he can help it. ]

Yeah, that's true. I guess he probably wouldn't without pretty good reason... Honestly, I think he's probably just as glad to stay out of our heads with some of the stuff that goes on in there.

[ He is only a young man, alright. There are some thoughts better to just be unknown, even to the professor. ]
