Hello. From what I've gathered, I've awoken on an alien world. [a moment's pause; she's accepted it, it would be counterproductive to dig in her heels, but it's still an absurd thing to say] What I can't seem to discern is how and why.

I have my suspicions, but I suspect they're narrow in focus. I must admit, this is all a bit outside my expertise. [a sudden, wry smile] I suppose I do like to broaden my horizons.

[the smile fades as she leans forward] I'm asking for any information you've gained, and what you intend to do with it. If you don't believe this to be a safe venue, I'm more than happy to meet in person.

I thought so.

You can easily disguise your ability as superior strength. God knows you have the physique for it. Furthermore, I'm going out to meet her, and unless you'd like to put me at risk of an unknown possible mutant -- don't tell me you didn't see the collar -- you'll come along.

You've made it perfectly clear that you're more than capable of defending yourself.

I'll come.

[Though not because of anything Charles has said. This time, it's because he's now curious to meet this telepath who happens to be named Xavier.]
