The smile lighting up Logan's craggy features is as welcome as the Krakoan nectar on Kurt's tongue; maybe moreso, for the guilty warmth the combination brings in its wake. This is how it's always been between them, for years. Easy and uncomplicated in ways few things in their lives are.
Though even on the heels of that, he finds himself frowning slightly at the older man's question. Logan isn't alone in wondering. As he looks at him he reaches back in his own mind, searching for some thread of memory, some dreamlike hint, but there's nothing beyond the first frantic moments. The Five act according to Xavier's request, and they're very good at what they do.
He's seen the footage, though, as a Council member, the bits and pieces stolen from Orchis' servers. Though even those are indistinct beyond a certain point.
"I don't think it's weird." He turns slightly under Logan's arm, so he can look at him properly as Dazzler's display paints them both in pulsing shades of red and orange and the crowd spins up into another wave of celebratory noise around them. The points of his fangs are very white in the shadows as he grins. "I assume we put on a good show, naturlich."
It's not like him to be swept up by anything too optimistic, but the energy of this place and its people and its promises is impossible to ignore. At least when they're here in the thick of it.
It even makes him nostalgic about a suicide mission he can't remember and whether or not Kurt lets him off the hook for focusing on that amidst all of this, he knows it's weird. It's just nice to have someone to think his weird thoughts aloud with.
"Course we did," he beams back. Not just convinced of that but tickled by Kurt's toothy smile too. "Pretty sure I heard the words 'mission critical' and 'as stupid as it was bold' bandied about. Whatever we did up there, I can't think of a way I'd rather go out."
