KURT. :(((
Manny had already left the institute by the time Kurt disappeared but was definitely upset and shaken when he learned about what happened. He returned home to the institute to check in with everyone, but probably just the once unless he was called back. There wasn't anything he could do (unless people wanted to shut off their bad feelings for a while), being there was difficult, and he wasn't keen to be associated with Xavier's with all the MRA shit starting up. So. He kept physical distance but stayed in contact. I think he probably went to the location where it happened if it was accessible to him, just to see if he could glean anything, but obviously could not.
When Kurt was finally home again, I think he maybe started driving up on the weekends so they could go to Mass/post-Mass breakfast together like they used to. Not because he's worried about Kurt or anything. He just prefers this church, obviously. Catholic Friend Hangout Time is just a bonus~

Manny :(((
I think the location Kurt vanished from was upsettingly mundane. Which is extra terrible because there were no good leads.
But once Kurt came back he was a little more mellow for a while and appreciated Manny being there. Company was important to him. He was a lot less inclined to argue with Manny for a few months. But don't worry, he's recovered and being annoying to Manny again these days. :) (With residual appreciation that Manny was there for him in his own way.)
