(considerably backdated) A Few Months Ago...:
Charles Xavier had only recently awakened from a temporary coma. It was not exactly a good day. And now, with security still heightened, one of the individuals involved in kidnapping one of his students -- shortly before the even worse attacks, lethal ones, scarring ones, happened -- was here, wanting to talk to him.

"I'm listening," he said.

Torn Ear did his best to stand tall, but his tail swished nervously behind his back.

"Chieftan Xavier, I am called Torn Ear. My people's leader, Elder Shadow, sent me to speak with you. Once again, we apologize VERY much for the confusion with the Pym-cat." He swallows hard.

"There is something we wish to ask your aid in now."

"Confusion is one way of putting it, Mr. Torn Ear. What exactly are you asking?"

He cocks his head. "'Mister'?" He then shakes his head sharply. No, mustn't get distracted. This is important.

"Elder Shadow and the other leaders have decided that if we are to ever live peacefully with humans, we need to learn more about them. They asked for someone to stay on the surface longer, and I volunteered."

He fidgets one of his heels. "Only.. it's a little much to just go right out in the middle of them. Our scout did not do well last time. The bad people caught them. You have machines that can make your... your not-normal humans look normal, yes? I thought maybe, if you could please help us, I could stay here, and maybe use the machine to study other places."

He manages a weak smile. "You have so many different humans here, and so much forest nearby, it seemed like a good place to start learning. This place is a school, yes?"

Xavier listens and is thoughtful for a moment.

"Those machines are called image inducers. And they are meant to be used very carefully."

He's thoughtful for another moment.
"We're open to a cultural exchange, certainly. You can stay here if you are prepared to follow the rules here, and you can be provided with an image inducer to go into town with others."

Torn Ear's tail stands up, a sign of happiness for cats, as he lowers his head and shuts his eyes.

"Thank you very much, Chieftan Xavier. I will cause no problems, and make sure your hut is free from pests, and that your crops are not touched by any either."

"To be clear from the start, the rules do include restrictions about killing animals on the grounds, and I think those handling the garden would appreciate being consulted before anything was interfered with."

The tail goes down again.

"Oh... who does the hunting then?"

"Logan's hunting is a of a very specific nature. The Hrimharisdottirs have occasionally made special arrangements elsewhere for their own interests. Food supplies are generally ordered from the grocery store in town."

Torn Ear's tail and ears droop as he tries to process all these new terms coming at him.

"...I'm going to have very much to learn."

"Indeed. Let me reiterate that you should pay attention to school personnel."

"Personnel..." He tries out the word, before it sinks in. "Leaders. Yes. I will do whatever they tell me."

"I suppose we will see you when you return, then."
