[ Steve isn't wrong, Erik does find it relatable. Well, to a certain degree. It seems that all of the people Steve mentions had their powers granted to them at some point in their lives, an external factor that caused those changes in them. In that point, mutants are different. But the mention of a team does get a glint of recognition in his eyes. ]

[ And in part, to work towards mutant acceptance, to show the world that they don't have to be feared. That they can be allies, rather than be made enemies. Erik may not agree with Charles's methods, mainly because time and again he has been proven otherwise, but he does respect him. His ideals, his goals. That at least will never change. ]

You said you were a team. Not anymore?
