He catches her in his arms before she collapses. ]
I met him. You.. found him. In Berlin. You brought him to Westchester. He's alive and well and good. Beautiful and earnest. Kind and brave. You will be so proud when you meet him.
[ His heart rends in his chest. You should have met her. Nina isn't dead yet for Raven. She hasn't been born yet. Erik's heart hadn't stopped shattering yet when Raven left Earth. He hadn't found Magda, hadn't healed in peace and quiet and love.
Hadn't had that turn to blood and ashes in his hands. Just like everything else.
That's not a fate Raven shares. That's not a grief she has to carry. ]
