"Huh...you really know a lot about how mutant powers work, Lorna," he remarked. "I bet you're good at science."

He managed to stop himself before he called it 'all that geek stuff', since she was attractive and nice, and apparently smart too. In spite of all that, she was still eagerly chatting with him. This was clearly a sign to give the Xavier Institute a chance. He made a mental note to himself that if he signed up for science class, that he should make sure to copy Lorna's notes. Or maybe he could ask her to tutor him. It was a good excuse to spend more time with her.

"Yeah...that'd be great. We could hang out while flying around together."

Hopefully he'd be able to stay in the air at least as long as she could.
