For a moment the spider remained silent, his hand leaving her shoulder as she turned to face him. The sight didn't surprise him. He'd seen stranger things in his days, like a vampire rescuing him from his imprisonment from Weapon X. He remained silent not because he was shocked at the sight, but because he was confused.
Rogue's sudden need to conceal herself and then her transformed and mixed appearance obviously meant that the girl had some trouble controlling her powers. What bothered him was why such difficulties would cause her to almost break down crying. True, the Rogue he knew never did that kind of waredrobe change, or had trouble keeping her powers under control, and he could see why such things would be frustrating at times. Suddenly becoming rock form in public surely caused problems. But it wasn't as if they were going to persecute her for it. Why would that trouble her so?
"Why are you crying? I understand that such changes could be troublesome, but why would it cause you to be this distraught?"
His voice had maintained its previous tone. He knew it wasn't the most comforting thing to say, but he wanted to better understand her situation, hoping that once he had, it would allow him to help her.
