[Voice. Toshiko's tone is more cordial than friendly now - noticeably cooler than her first post.]

Well. I understand I've - lost - six months since I was last here. I'm aware I've spent the last two weeks giving the impression that I'm a new arrival on the ship, however, the amnesia has resolved itself now. I've actually spent two years here, albeit non-consecutively.

I'd like to thank everyone who welcomed me and gave me advice and information, and I apologise for asking the same questions I'm sure you've all fielded a thousand times before.

[A long pause. There's a lot of people she'd like to ask about, but the words don't come and eventually she just switches filters. Work to be done.]

[Private to the Admiral]

Please restore Erik's abilities in their entirety.

Would it be possible for me to nominate another Warden to make a request on my behalf for his abilities to be nullified, if I'm killed or incapacitated?

[Private to Erik; text]

Hello, Erik. I'm sure you heard the Admiral's announcement.

I also expect you've noticed by now that you have your abilities back. I want to explain my position on this.

You're not here because you're a mutant. We both know that. Why you are here is something we're both going to need a long time to explore. But your mutation is not in and of itself a weapon or a corrupting influence, and that's not a viewpoint I'm prepared to endorse by holding your own DNA over your head.

I also understand the Barge is a dangerous environment and if you have to use your abilities to restrain someone in proportionate self-defence, then once I'm satisfied that was actually the case I won't have much else to say about it.

But I have to consider the safety of our crewmates as well. If you use your abilities to hurt or kill someone without unambiguously needing to - again, your mutation is not the issue. If you strangled someone I wouldn't ask the Admiral to take your hands off. But if the entire ship is placed at risk because of how you choose to use your mutation, if I have no other choice, then I will ask the Admiral to take your abilities. Temporarily, until we can agree that the cause of that specific incident has been resolved and won't be repeated. And I want to make clear that I'm stating this as an outside contingency and not planning for something I expect to happen.

Ms. Sato? Charles Xavier. I have a few matters I'd appreciate being able to discuss with you. [Namely ERIK NEEDS HIS POWERS BACK.]

[Whatever, STILL GETTING THE DESIRED OUTCOME.]

Toshiko. [There's a very brief pause while he decides exactly how he wants to put this, because he doesn't want to look like he's ordering you to do it or demanding it.]

Several weeks ago, I petitioned the Admiral to restore Erik's full abilities because he's getting progressively worse without them. I completely understand other warden's reluctance to giving inmates their abilities back in fear they'll abuse them, but with Erik, the issue is the longer he's kept from them and told he can't control them or himself, the more he feels he's justified in saying humans will never understand us, which has only been further reinforced by the attitudes of several wardens on board who simply don't understand the situation. He isn't here because he's a mutant.

I'm not trying to tell you how to do your job, but I'm very concerned for his well being, as well as everyone else on board. And I'd urge you to take this into consideration moving forward.

[... Well. That is not at all what he was expecting, and he's letting out some very, very relieved laughter. This is literally the best thing he's heard ever.]

Thank you. You have no idea how much this means.

[It's a long while before he replies - partially because oh God, his powers are back in full, he can feel every scrap of metal in his room, outside his room, on the floors above and below him, and it's the first time he's actually felt like himself since he first opened his eyes here.

He has no intention of letting her know how relieved he is, of course. He still doesn't trust her, and this could easily be a ploy. It wouldn't be a bad one - earn his trust, convince him he's dead and that he needs to change, because, see, humans aren't inherantly worthless. It's a very good ploy. And all he's taking from her speech is that - and the possible loophole that if he strangles Stark with his bare hands, then maybe Ms. Sato won't take his abilities again.]


How many times have you been here? [Maybe they can build to a thank you, who knows. :c]

[Neither human, and he isn't sure if that's a point in her favor or not, because they weren't mutants either. :v]

That's two deals you've had filled then. Bit greedy, isn't it? Seeking a third.
