[ Erik's presence wasn't unwelcome or unwanted, but it was -- definitely, a surprise. Charles had searched, and searched, and he was inside of his home, and even though he sees Erik there, he can't feel him or sense him. There was disconnect where Charles had usually felt so close to everyone, and so close to Erik. Their different paths hadn't changed his thought that Erik was his closest friend, though. It was so lonely, and Charles - despite his optimism, had wanted to give up. Stop searching.

The others had wanted him to stop. And continuing on like everything was alright was getting harder and harder. He didn't like the helpless feeling he had been overwhelmed with. And his legs, he could learn. ]

Erik.

[ That as all Charles could think to say, without thinking over it. Moving towards the chessboard. The chair he had normally sat in was gone, and he replaced it with his wheelchair. It feels odd just answering, saying yes as if nothing has happened. He didn't know that it would be as difficult seeing him again as it was

You need to not be angry. You went back to your rage.

[ He closes his eyes, and inhales. He's quiet for several moments. ]

People are inspired when they have something to believe in.

[ Charles lets his hand rest on Erik's, it is not a brush anymore. He thinks on the question for several minutes. He wanted to be angry, for everything. The way that Erik said it -- it seemed, to him, Erik was just wanting him to be angry. He understood that anger so well, but Charles was only mourning his losses. ]

I am hurt, Erik. But I can't do what I do if I'm angry. If all I think about is what I lost rather than what I have, I won't ever be what these kids need me to be.

[ He pauses. ]

You are strong, Erik. Stronger than I am, and we both know it. But if you don't find that place I showed you again, you will always struggle.

[helpmeguideit]

[ Charles shakes his head, but lets his fingers remained curled around Erik's. It was a small, familiar touch between them. He was trying to reassure him. ]

You know that I can not. We want only some of the same things. I'm afraid our dreams may be different, my friend.

[ And it wasn't as though -- saying that, was easy. ]

[helpmeguideit]

My desire is to exist peacefully with others. I do not want the same thing you do, Erik. I still have hope, and I will have hope.

[ He grips Erik's hand in his, turning his hand so that he is able to hold onto it tightly. ]

That day at the beach would be for nothing. I am like this for nothing if I were to follow you.

[helpmeguideit]

And Erik, you will always have a place here. Always. I don't want to be called a hero.

[ Charles doesn't want to let go, and he reaches his other and and grips Erik's wrist. It is his attempt to reassure him without having to say anything. He wasn't sure how to reassure him other than to say things that he had already told him in the past. ]

This place is safe for any like us. I will always welcome you back, but I can't say the others will think the same.

[helpmeguideit]

I am going to fight, but my fight is nothing like yours. When we find that peace that you are searching so desperately for, I will be glad to stand by your side.

[ Charles wanted to always fight for unity. Being superior and acting superior was never going to create peace for them. He felt that Erik would always be fighting and there would always be struggle if he didn't attempt to find peace. ]

And I hope, Erik, my dear friend, that you find peace. For yourself, above all for who we are. I wouldn't want another to help me guide it.

[helpmeguideit]

You won't succeed, Erik.

[ And Charles loosens his grip on Erik's hand. His fingers were still brushing against Erik's, but it wasn't the hold that he had. ]

Unless you can find your own peace first. A man can't lead unless he is satisfied with himself and his goals.

[helpmeguideit]

I'm adjusting, leaning how to gain my peace again.

[ Charles looked towards their hands and then looked towards Erik again. ]

Did revenge bring you any peace?
