Moving Options

Written by Nessa

Bobby and Hank

"I sometimes think about moving back," Bobby admitted, looking up from his homework.

Hank glanced up from his research. "Back... to the Mansion?"

"Yeah," the younger mutant nodded. "I've been thinking a lot about my last conversation with the Professor. And I don't know, maybe coming back for a semester as an X-Men might get me out of this rut."

"Do you feel you are in one, my friend?" Hank asked.

Bobby shrugged. "Sorta. I mean... maybe I'm just burnt out from school, but I feel like nothing has a point at the moment. Like... why study if I never get anywhere?"

Hank sighed and set his glasses down on the table in front of him. "You doubt yourself too much, Bobby. Indeed, I see many great results from your academic pursuits. But, if you wanted to take time off, I would not dissuade you. After all, I am selfishly thinking of myself."

Bobby smiled at him. "Thought you might."
