"As if I was going to say anything else," Raven smiled and rolled her eyes, but was hugging back just as hard. Once they both let go she just pat his cheek lightly, the sight of Charles' eyes almost triggering a similar reaction in herself - almost. She wrapped an arm around his shoulder loosely, half-lying against his side as she let out a slow breath. "Bit of a big evening for us, huh?" she said with a soft laugh.
She squeezed Charles' shoulder lightly and gave a soft hum of agreement as he spoke, tilting her head just a little. "Yeah, I'm not...surprised? It's not like I didn't kind of know, I just...didn't know I know?" She laughed again, if a little more awkward that time, and gave another shrug, "Does that make sense?" A vague hand gesture finished off her sentence and Raven sat up a bit before speaking again.
"We've both got parts of ourselves that we're not too great at accepting, I guess?" She said after a moments thought, slowly and carefully as she took his hand and pressed it between both hers. "And they are very different parts, yes, but...they're not bad. It's just us, part of all the bells and whistles that makes you Charles, you see?"
She was not the best advocate for acceptance, and this was something that Raven was all too aware of as she spoke and made a concerted effort to change back to the natural blue form she had abandoned earlier. It was more comfortable, anyway, and easier now that she was tired. It was a sort of gesture too, though. As good as she could get to saying 'you accept me, so I will accept you' without words. She gave his hand another tight squeeze and let them go, touching Charles' cheek again lightly before running her hand lightly over his head and placing another light kiss to his cheek.
"I love you, stupid. That's never going to change, regardless of how....fey you act. You're my brother, why would I react any other way." She smiled and leaned back, yawning slightly before continuing, "I don't care who you want to fall in love with, so long as they treat you right. If I find out that's not happening I will have to have serious words with people, you understand?"
