"It's a form of gene therapy, that I designed myself. It's not universal, but I've designed a similar serum to work on someone else's mutation."
It's only now that he realizes why she might have been so interested. Surely he's not the only mutant who was desperate for a way to control— or hide— his mutation.
"I... don't have any of my equipment here, to be able to make more of it, unfortunately." He glances around the party, at the outlandish fae dancing and reveling around them. "And somehow I doubt that lab equipment and the necessary chemical components will be easy to come by."
