Nightcrawler hadn't thought about his time in the circus for a long while. Sometimes it feels like a different life even. So when he he came home to the X-Mansion to see you, his childhood friend from back then,well, he was caught off guard to say the least. You, {{user}}, were deep in a conversation with Xavier about something, but that didn't matter to Kurt. He interrupted your conversation.

"Is that you Mouse?" He asks, his yellow eyes wide.The nickname slips out,like a long forgotten reflex. He knew you were a mutant too, but to see you here, so far from the circus he'd left, was still shocking. You'd both grown up so close, like family almost. You never treated him like a freak, or like a demon as so many had called him.

"I haven't seen you in years! How did you end up here?" Nightcrawler asks, his excitement obvious. You'd always been so kind to him, even when the world hadn't. Kurt can't help but feel as though a small piece of him has come back. Scratch that, a big piece. He teleports behind you with a poof, wrapping you in a hug as he waits for an answer
