( It might have come up but Charles himself had been the first one to mention it - Remus too in her initial conversation. If she'd wanted to know about any safeguards she'd have gone to Security, human or non-human safeguards. She'd asked about help - things that he did, his experience. How his work helped someone stay in control of themselves - personal control )
Being someone that understands the worst of humankind- ( From his statements she can understand his defensiveness. Shooting first and vivisection? At least she can say those are acts she's never ordered or taken part in. Shots only came when there was no reason, or they were under attack ) -you should know that the worst of it can come from humans themselves. Experiments - not solely on people with abilities but also to create them. People that would then use their subjects to cause more damage than they could.
( Thankfully for someone like Steve he was on their side - stopping the damage, but the Red Skull had wanted that for himself. He might not have gotten it but Hydra had ended up with Barnes. Humans controlling a super soldier - someone more than human. If it was just Barnes it would have been like Steve, but it was other humans giving those orders. Maria let her words hang for a few seconds, trying to get her point back )
We're all from different places - we've all had to do different things. Someone told me that this department helped people that had other needs. I was curious about what you knew - what experience you had with these things to do that.

Accepts intention as stated, now. ]
And when asked by someone who will never need my help in the ways we're discussing, I'm inclined to ask who's asking, and why.
[ His tone has loosened, and he offers the beginning of a crooked smile. ]
But I suppose it's better than never asking at all. I didn't mean any offence in hoping your organisation would be redundant, in this world or the next. I just believe in empowering people like me to help themselves, in some respects, rather than becoming a problem.

I might not need your help, but other people may. I'd like to know who to be able to send them to, that they could be helped.
( It wasn't just them here, and so far the external threats and the ship had proven more dangerous than anything on board. Minus the sleepwalking incident, but that was something out of control rather than malicious intent. If word was to be believed anyway )
And it would probably a nicer world if my job didn't exist. ( Didn't have to exist, but then it would be a nicer world if a lot of things weren't needed - military responses, spies. If things were safer a lot would be redundant. Science became as messy as biology ) You said you had a school. How long has it been running?

[ His smile goes crooked; a little sad. (Very sad, but it's not anyone's business but his own, so it remains suppressed.) ]
We had to shut down due to the draft taking effect. There was a war, in Vietnam.
[ It's not the entire truth, but truth enough without getting terribly person. ]
But I've been told that in the future, I'm able to open it up again, and it runs for decades on. I'd had some prior experience in training up young mutants, before the school came together. It was a small team, but effective. Memorable. A certain spirit of discovery, in those early days.
Here, there's a lot to relearn.
