Four days in jail. It's not a hardship to Erik. In fact, the room is much better than his current one at Charles' home given the current state of the walls. He's whiled the time away by sitting against the wall and scratching lightly at the bandages on his arm, nudging an old coin along his knuckles before he does it again. He carves his thoughts into a singular minded path and the days pass with ease.
He has been in so many cages before. This is simply one more.
When the gates of this particular hell open on the fourth day, Erik gathers his things and steps past the bars, not expecting anyone to have come to greet him. Charles has visited, but Erik had requested that he be permitted to be released on his own. Clad in the simple white t-shirt and sweatpants he's been permitted, he feels like a lab rat who has now had all his tests completed. It's why, when he is standing outside of the prison, that he feels utter disappointment ravage him when he sees who has come to collect him.
"Billy," he greets evenly.
