"To get warm," ::Odin replied immediately, as he was so compelled. Free of that, he could respond to her other statement.:: "I'll happily circulate that petition for you."

"Ah bet we'd get a lot of signatures at the Institute." Paige said cheerfully before she moved to take a seat in one of the chairs. It seemed rather busy today, but luckily no one was sitting down right now so they had that section to themselves.

::Odin followed her and sat in an armchair opposite where she sat. It was comfortable, and he'd be keen to spend the rest of the afternoon here.:: "I'm sure we would, but I wouldn't want to put all of you at risk for it."

Paige frowned slightly at his comment, "Why would ya think Ah'd be at risk?" She asked curiously.

::These were conversations Odin had kept largely to himself, in an attempt not to depress those around him. He needed to make a few calls, just to get his thoughts out, but Paige had beaten him to that.:: "Assuming a worst-case scenario, where the government shuts down mutant press, what would stop them from going after petitioners?"

Paige's brows furrowed before her stubborn side came out, "Ah could handle them." She said in a confident tone.

"That I don't doubt," ::Odin knew her powers and how much she trained. She could handle herself, but the other students...:: "I'm worried about everyone else."

Paige smiled gently when he said he didn't doubt there. However, her smile soon left her lips at her second comment. "That's true." She said softly, she couldn't protect them all.

::It was a depressing thought, and Odin's expression became serious. He withdrew for a moment, thinking about where they all might be in four weeks.::

Paige noticed the change of expression on Odin's face, and her brows furrowed in worry. "What's wrong?" She asked softly.

::Odin blinked, looked at Paige again. How easily he could fall into concentration elsewhere.:: "I'm just thinking about the next issue."

"That's it?" She asked cautiously, it seemed like something else was on his mind. Though she could be wrong.

::Keeping back information was no longer an option in the face of direct questioning. Odin gave a slight nod.:: "And whether or not it'll be our last. But that's it, trust me."

"Alright." Paige said wearily, still not completely sure that was all. However, she had pushed him enough for information on what was bothering him and decided to stop there. "Well, if you ever need my help...or someone to talk to. Ya know Ah'm always here for ya." Paige said in a sensitive and caring tone.

::Odin's expression lightened a tad, without becoming an actual smile.:: "Thanks for that, Paige, truly."
