Summary
"You know, sometimes I wonder what my life would've been like if you hadn't found me here that night."
Raven has spent all of her life in hiding because of what she looks like, what she really is. Charles has spent his whole life trying to protect Raven, but he's done it by making her hide herself. Well, she's done hiding, and she intends to make this brutally clear to Charles, in the sharpest way possible - after all, they're way overdue for a huge fight, and the day before they go to try to stop World War 3 seems like the best time to do it.
(Rewrite of the pre-Cuba kitchen fight)

Summary
There isn't much to do in her little cell at the CIA, so Emma does what she always does when she's bored and wanders to the edge of her telepathic perception, probing the minds of anyone she can reach. She's rather surprised to find Shaw. She's even more surprised to sense the other telepath, Charles. He's apparently gotten a bit more powerful, and luckily for her, he's so distracted he barely notices her entry into his mind.
