"I'm not going to ask him about any of it."

Which was different than not wanting to. He wasn't as driven by a need to know everything the way some people were, tended to prioritize and recognize what he needed to know as opposed to didn't, but he wasn't incurious. He was probably closer to it now than he would have been before Jean's death, but he also had fewer resources now than he'd previously had, because he was stretched so damn thin with the school, the team, and ignoring his own grief.

"Sandy and I have a deal. We don't ask each other uncomfortable questions." Yeah, he'd break that deal if it was do or die, but satisfy his own interest? No way. It'd open the door for the reverse, amongst other things.

"And most of those changes develop and grow with time, even when they're naturally occurring. When Iceman showed up here he could just about cover himself in snow."
