Snark was so afraid he was going to get berated for all that he said, especially after Logan was so supportive towards him. It was such a strange thing to experience, he had never had such concern given to him; however, he could only disappoint the man by claiming he had no idea whether he was a mutant or not. Almost waiting for those claws to pop out and the threat to leave, he gasped a little when one of the girls stepped towards him, offering him her hand despite how filthy his own were. He had somewhat hoped that by mentioning Xavier that he might have some excuse for being here; if he had just said he had wandered in here accidentally might had ended up making things a lot worse.

Alison was a fairly normal sounding name; she must have had some nice life going on with some loving parents to give her such a soft sounding and gentle name. Just why was someone with such a name even talking to him, anyway? Staring down at her hand, he slowly reached out for it before he halted, looking at his own filthy calloused fingers and comparing them to hers, “Uhhh…close? Is that…so”, he spoke, his hand hovering over hers in a slight nervous shake, “I, uhh, guess that’s your…power?” Maybe it was all the bread he consumed that was making him such a coward right now, but as her palm slowly lowered he realised he shouldn’t straight out grab her hand just because it was moving away from his.

As his own cowardice caused Alison’s hand to slip away from his, he got a mild fright as the strange man from before spoke to him, his eyes looking at him up and down curiously before his reached out hand immediately went to his chest, clearing his throat a little. Looking up at Kurt at the moment of hesitation to his name, the sudden appearance of that strange creature made him jump a little as his eyes shifted from the creature to Kurt respectively a few times. Why were those things completely naked, anyway? He had seen many strange things and hallucinated much before, but those things were definitely something new, “Uhh, friends?” he questioned him, finding it oddly unbelievable that anybody would regard an almost complete stranger as a friend, “Even if it turns out I’m not one of you? Why do those things have no clothes…?”

Just as the thought of dressing those creatures up like little monkeys came into mind, that thought was soon abandoned to make room for the arrival of the Xavier man and hopefully saving him from this awkward moment. The other man was there too, the Erik guy who could make coins float around. Watching as Charles approached him, Snark stared up at the man as he spoke about his certainties, that he was completely positive that Snark had abilities that all these other kids had too. Looking to Kurt before to Alison, their words of reassurance had him feeling a lot more confident than he had been before. As his eyes moved back to Charles, he nodded, rubbing his arm slowly as if to give himself some reassurance, “Okay…okay, I’ll talk to you”, he spoke, his eyes going to Logan just before he was set to leave with Erik, “And, uhh…thanks, thanks a lot. I’ll remember that”.
