Charles-once so effervescent, lighting up every room-has suddenly expressed a sharp dislike for interacting with more than one person at a time. He is a bat with its ears clipped off, tripping over sentences, stumbling blindly into sore subjects left and right. With one person he stands half a chance, though Erik keeps catching him casting resentful glares at the helmet when Charles thinks he isn’t looking. With the children-the students, Erik automatically corrects himself-Charles dislikes appearing less than perfect.
And yet his…interest in Erik, for lack of a better word, seems wholly undiminished. He has always watched Erik like this, wide-eyed and searching, as if Erik is fascinating, or something unique.
“Well,” Erik tries to smile, “you’ll be happy to know it’s not constipation. Your instincts are good, if underdeveloped.”
