Raven notices. Her eyes stay forward, but she sees the double-takes, wants to run to the lift, but she manages not to. Maybe if eole saw her in her real skin with no trace of shame, they'd realize she... had nothing to be ashamed of. Yes. Right. Erik's words start to float around in her mind, but she shoves them away just as soon as they came because she misses him too and she nearly can't stand it.

Jim's question snaps her out of it, as well as the arrival of the lift.

"Mutant, technically. I'm human, but my genes are different. I don't... know any of the science behind it, that's Charles thing, but I can show you what exactly makes me different besides the ..blue." She grins before stepping inside, waiting for the doors to shut behind them and for the lift to start moving before she continues.

"I can shape-shift. It's how I've been hiding. But my mutation isn't just meant to hide my true form, that's how I've always thought of it. It's so more than that."

With a flutter she slowly shifts, which takes a great deal of effort, into the girl she spoke as on the network before the jump.

"It's not just my face, my skin. It's everything. I only hide because I'm not... sure how people will handle knowing that."
