[you're giving him another migraine, O'Brien. you are some sort of magnificent expert in this field.]
Might I inquire as to why? The boy you're speaking of is under my protection, and I'd rather head any potential [delicately, Charles--] unpleasantness off at the pass, if you will.

[Charles sort of laughs a little at that. Civilian. Really.]
Well, yes.
[as much as someone who worked for a time on a government payroll could be a civilian, he supposes. Not that he's planning on clarifying that, uh, ever, because he's a diiiiiiiiiiiiiick.]
But Kurt is from the particular Earth of my recollection and moreover, is a member of my household there.
[in the future, at any rate.]
Might I ask what difficulties you two may have had?

Oh don't start on that crap. They make kid shows about mutants, alright? And there's no way that the same shit that gives people extra fingers can make them blue and furry. And, that hologram thing he's got? Even the tech in my time can't do that.

That's awfully close-minded of you, don't you think? With the technological means and the proper application of sciences, there's very little that the human mind can't accomplish.

I happen to be something of an expert on the matter of genetic mutation, and let me assure you it is entirely possible. Nor is Kurt the only individual I've met with a physical mutation of that particular nature.

[Oh hell. Charles just. HHHH MIGRAINE OBRIEN Y U DO.]
O'Brien, why does it matter to you whether or not there are more people like Kurt? He's a child, and he's completely harmless, I assure you. He wants nothing more than to be normal and accepted by society. A society that has, through ignorance, denied him the very thing that any child craves.

Yeah, and I've lived this long by trusting other peoples' assurances that so and so is completely harmless.
If he's so completely un-threatening and shit, then it shouldn't be a problem if I find out where he is, right? If I wanted to have a little chat with him, and decide things for myself?
[The question is light, almost jovial. As if you don't sound like you want to hunt Kurt down or anything ridiculously hostile like that.]

What do you mean, under your protection? You're a civilian.

Entirely sure, believe me.

Uh huh. And I suppose you know all about what he really looks like.
