Friends or Enemies, whichever lied between Athan and Mystique, wasn't the highlight of his objective.
All that he bore in mind was to prove himself to the current Mystique that he was capable and prove to her that he could do just as much as her achievements, bearing the same result through several adjustments of methods—or even better.
Maybe, just a chance that maybe Mystique would be on the same page as him without butting heads every now and then...
So far, Matthew reported that Mystique visited a couple of times, more so to appeal to such matters he had yet to know. Yet Athan believed in him; aside from being someone he could rely on, it almost seemed plausible it was the case.
But hearing Edmund dropped the news had his body deeply rooted against the cream and mint couch.
It was akin to cold feet, of what he possibly learned for the day.
