Awkward Introductions
When they got home, Sylvie thanked Misha, but decided right out to introduce Fred to Dad. Dad wasn't exactly hard to find.

He takes the disc thoughtfully. "And there's the rub. On its own, the sound of your research has merit. I shall certainly endeavor to look into what you have developed so far, regardless. Despite that one factor - coming to Xaviers' because others won't back your research is only feasible if you are also willing to comport yourself in a manner befitting one of our students. Whatever your deeply held beliefs, a certain standard of behavior and recicitude in action is expected here. If you are willing to submit to those standards and follow a reasonable code of ethics, however, if there is nothing morally objectionable within the research, we may be able to achieve an accord."

Friedrich was silent for an uncomfortable period of time.

"Firstly, and I cannot emphasize this enough, I have no desire whatsoever to become one of Xavier's students. I do not believe in your cause, frankly I consider it naive, and I will not perpetuate it. I'm here to do something that will benefit our people. Secondly, and just what is 'unethical'? Because I believe I can safety say that's a debate that leave us both annoyed, angry, and dehydrated."

Hank takes that in, then nods. "Understood... which, makes things more difficult. Nonetheless, if your research might benefit mutantkind without doing harm to others - regardless of the genetic status of those others, I do feel it necessary to assist in the next steps - I will not prevent the greater good on philosophical differences. However, I also cannot allow those who, frankly, oppose the attempt to reconcile human and mutant relations, to go about unsupervised. If you are willing to allow a degree of security procedure, and for me to oversee aspects of the research to make sure what is being pursued is what you presented to me - I will assist you, regardless of our other differences in opinion."

Friedrich actually smiles a bit, fangs visible. "Very pragmatic of you, uncle. Alright, so long as my work is not mired in philosophical debate, then I ill concede to your terms." He pauses a moment. "For the record I don't oppose your efforts per se, I simply believe to be a waste of resources. I will do nothing to hinder your efforts, I simply believe them to be misdirected."

	"And you are welcome to your philosophy. So long as neither it, nor your research puts people, human or mutant, at risk, I will not oppose the former, and support the latter, without further pursuing philosophical debate that is not desired." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Excellent, then we have a deal," Fred declared, offering his own clawed hand. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He shakes hands from his upside down position without hesitation. "Indeed." (Reply to this)(Parent)
