After blurting out everything on his mind in one breath, Erik even ignored his daughter's displeasure and snatched the parrot from her arms.
He hurriedly examined every part of the parrot, not even overlooking its sex!
It was female.
After checking, Erik stared blankly at Heisenberg.
"Are you... God?!!"

"Sorry, I was a little too nervous. Here you go, sweetheart."
As he explained himself, Erik returned the bird to Nina.

Otherwise, your smile and friendliness will only make me more uneasy!"
After speaking, Erik shook his head with difficulty.
"I really retired. Really!
I don't want to do anything that could make people connect me with mutants anymore!

Aren't you supposed to treat your kind well? So you can't even grant me such a simple request?"
"It isn't a matter of whether I can grant your request to retire
