[Rogue has her own losses to mourn and lanterns to release, but she's grateful that's not a task that she must complete alone. With her best friend now here, they were able to honor Charles and Logan (among others) together and amidst the clouds and floating memories, literally.
Their feet back on solid ground, the mutant caught sight of Thor releasing his lanterns and excuses herself from Remy. They'd catch up later, always did. In this moment, she understood exactly what the god of thunder was feeling, and not just because she too has experienced great loss. Touching him with her power threw her through the experiences of losing far too many of his people.
She gives him privacy enough, standing off to the side while he said his peace, his prayers. There have been too many funerals and memorials in her history. Too many loses and tears. This has almost become one of her elements.
Striding forward during what she thinks is the end of his respects, Rogue arrives and gently places a gloved hand on his shoulder as he speaks the last statement. Her heart's with him and his words, her own eyes damp from her and Remy's aerial memorial to their fallen friends, and when it's clear he's actually done, her hand gives his shoulder a firm, hopefully comforting squeeze..]

May they find their peace.
