I know. When I first dreamed about being a teacher, both the dream me and the real me was like... "What? Me? Teach? REALLY? Are you insane?"
But you do a really good job with it, actually.
I mean... We both know what it's like to have a power that is devastatingly awful when not under control. To be deathly afraid of that power, to even contemplate doing some dark things to ourselves to escape it or that the world would be better off without us.
And I think when you know what that's like, you can get other mutants to realise that they aren't alone.
