"Even if you don't wish to attend our school" he looked up at Megan "than at least allow me to offer you the use of our training facilities to focus your powers."

"You know, there's always Howl's apprentice Michael- he's about 15, and he's way better than me-"

"There are more like you?" Charles ears perked up.

"I told you, I got it from a book. Howl's really good at it."

He rubbed his chin "And you are sure that anyone, at all, could learn what you and these other two that you speak of, know?"

"It's likely."

"Could you, if you'd like, learn other elements?"

She shrugged.
"Probably."
Plus that'd mean I had Avatar-power or something, and then I could REALLY pwn Azula.

"Astonishing, truly" he looked up at her "you probably think I'm a little crazy for being so interested in this. But the truth is, before Erik told me about you, I was lead to believe that only mutants, could have powers, of any kind."

"Well, uh, I guess Schoolhouse Rocky was right. Knowledge is power."

Charles chuckled recalling the cartoon "I agree."

"I appreciate your interest in me, but honestly," Megan added, a little more hesitantly, "I... well, look. I know I've got powers, apparently, but wouldn't it kind of take away from, well, you know, actual mutants if you focused on me?"

"I wouldn't have to" he smiled that kind of comforting smile those movie grandfathers give "all I'm offering is my school to you, you'd be treated just like everyone else, other than a couple tests I might want to run on you and anyone else like you that you could agree to take these tests. Megan-" Charles stopped to take a breath "-even though you are not a mutant, I'd rather not know that there are people out there with powers practicing them in alleys. It's... dangerous. You could be mistaken for one of us as we almost mistook you."

Megan almost laughed.
"I don't know if you've looked around here lately, sir, but... well, nor- I mean, non-muta- I mean, people who don't have superpowers or some kind of magic or something... they're the minority around here. On my way here- and this was all just today- I passed a protest by a bunch of zombies who were pissed off they couldn't own property. I've been asked by a princess and an enchanter from two worlds over to help keep an eye out for world edges going all woogly. My best friend here recently teleported a whole crowd out of the way of a speeding car- and before you get any ideas about trying to recruit her, she's already been snatched up by a man with an IQ of at least 180 who wears purple all the damn time and according to her has a genetically altered lynx for a pet. She lives with said princess, a genius inventor, a sorceress, some other people I haven't met yet, and ducks with turtle shells. I live with a pink-haired wizard, his assistant, and a talking ball of fire in a house that opens onto five different locations, I had to bribe a sorceror with my iPod, and I swear to God I have seen the same cabbage merchant lose his entire inventory three times since I arrived in Paris. If anything, I think we'd need to start worrying if we find someone with no powers robbing a liquor store, because THAT would be weird around here."

Charles stared for a moment "As you seem to know far more about this dimension I seem to have pulled my students in to" he chuckled "then allow me to ask you to stay as my adviser on this world."
