i do bang my desk about the hair-width implications in scattered issues of kurt recognizing the vibes of magic that im gonna run fifty marathons with,, as he should, in fact!! raised since infancy by a once- sorcerer supreme & throughout his life close to a Number of magic users... he Should be attuned to magic; even before he got into that soul-pact with the bamfs — he's been surrounded by magic most of his life!!! i do in fact wanna argue that of the 2nd class prior to yana joining as magik he did have the (2nd?) best sense for magic shenans. ( i wanna put that 2nd best as a maybe technically there coz of sean coz i vaguely remember there bein stuff re cassidy keep, they could be tied for all i know ) . but i do feel this in my bones. kurt Should recognize the vibes of magic. i'm talkin can tell the difference between Magic(tm) & a slight of hand, feels a difference between being messed with via mutant ability n technology or via spell; hell, he already canonically can handle magical items to a degree it's implied other non-magic-users cannot (insert soul swords, soul daggers, & his own hope sword). it would figure that he can detect traces of magic just like he can detect the planar shift of someone teleporting in his rough vicinity.
