"Th-thank you...." Rogue blinked rapidly, reminding herself that it wasn't acceptable to cry in public, especially in front of new acquaintances. But still.... Still, she couldn't help but be touched by the kindness a near-total stranger was offering her. Her, a runaway and a dangerous mutant.... Even if they were kin of a sort, it still seemed surreal, too good to be true. To find such a kind, knowledgeable new friend, with the resources to help her with what she needed, and the patience to stick with her....

She wanted to be someone people could be proud of knowing again. She wanted to find and earn her place, and prove that she was still a good person. "I'll do whatever it takes." She smiled at her benefactor, small but genuine as she felt a metaphorical weight lift from her shoulders.
