1K comments, first impressions/relationship meme, where the hell did all of those comments come from so quickly, etc.. Be warned that I will be asking for reverses. Also, that this might take me a while, since yesterday's internet blackout left me quite behind.

Erik, you don't count, you're getting your own essay or something.

UNCLE CHARLES LOVES YOU VERY MUCH KURT no seriously, Charles finds Kurt to be a joy to be around, most of the time. He really appreciates Kurt's happy-derpy-puppy-ness because it lets Charles indulge in that side of himself as well. The "most of the time" caveat is that sometimes Charles is really just Not In The Mood but doesn't want that to show through, particularly to someone as nice as Kurt, which turns being around Kurt into a rather draining exercise. (Though that's not something particularly specific to Kurt -- it can be a strain to be around just about anyone at some point or another -- Charles does feel a little more walking on eggshells with the Evo kids, since their future seems less horrible than everyone else's and Charles doesn't want to, like, break that or whatever.)

AS FOR MYSTIQUE Charles will not be telling Kurt the details of that anytime soon. But he does feel even more responsible for Kurt now, though it remains to be seen if that will manifest itself in any noticeable ways. Even though there's the whole alternate realities thing going on, Charles still feels a little guilty, because whatever happened to Kurt because of Mystique (and, with your OOC permission, Charles will be checking that out at some point without telling Kurt) somehow links back to Raven becoming Mystique in the first place, which, if Charles hadn't failed her and lost her, would not have happened in the first place.

Also, Charles just doesn't want to think about his little sister getting knocked up. >.<;;

REVERSE ME, NEPHEW

OOC Permission granted! Kurt was thinking about his relationship with Mystique during their entire conversation, so Uncle Charles would have picked up on that anyways. And he can dig a little more without Kurt noticing, too.

KURT LIKES THE PROFESSOR is the bottom line. Even though it's a little weird that he's younger and has hair, he's still The Professor. Kurt's said as much. And even if he isn't Evo Professor, he is by association a man that Kurt deeply respects and loves like family. But! He also gets that this Professor is different, which is honestly why he's maybe even a little bit more excited to get to know him. The Professor he knows is old and wise and stuff, and while he can be a bit of a jokester he is still The Professor (it's like Dumbledore or something). But Uncle Charles is closer in age to Kurt and has his own struggles with being a mutant--or that's how Kurt sees it, at least. And struggles with the not walking thing (sorry, Uncle Charles, this much is obvious). The Professor has everything together! Uncle Charles is still figuring things out. And while Kurt knows The Professor isn't infallible, Uncle Charles isn't on as high of a pedestal. So it's like he gets all the respect and love that comes with being The Professor, but he also gets all of the badgering that Kurt would otherwise NOT do to Evo Professor.

ONE DAY, WHEN KURT IS NOT DUMB, HE MIGHT NOTICE THAT UNCLE CHARLES IS UNCLE CHARLES. Then he will never get away, because that means he's family. You are doomed to be stuck with him forever, Uncle Charles. Accept it.
