[Oh good, he's not putting up much of a fuss at the thought. Scott likes it when that happens, makes his life easier. Or maybe he's just distracted by the whole idea that he just told him that he's a superhero. Which, fair. Honestly it feels kind of weird to describe himself in that way, after spending so long thinking that he was just a mutant that might be part of normal society for years.

And now he's Cyclops, future leader of the X-Men. Hopefully he's living up to that legacy somewhat right now. It's just more walking-- guiding Ferran closer and closer to the medcenter.]


Yeah, pretty much. Explains the costume at least. [He adds, almost wryly.] There's other people with powers in this world and they're not superheroes-- though they're still good. There's a lot of people you can trust here, okay? That's the most important thing to know.

[Even if their numbers have dwindled a lot lately, there's still friends here that he could trust with his life.]

[The reply brings a slight frown to his face, though it's more out of uncertainty than anything. The idea that he can trust people...

... he should have been considering that a long time ago. He'd thought it was too late on that, but—what has he gotten himself into now? It feels like an improvement, but is it really?]


R-right... [He remembers to keep his eyes on the path ahead, but his mind starts wandering again, especially when he realizes Scott just said this world—which...]

—I probably shouldn't try to think too hard about this, huh...

[And for all he knows, it could be some kind of messed up bizarre dream not even worth trying to puzzle out. But hey, the little building Aldrip calls a clinic is coming into view, even if Ferran can't recognize it as one himself.]
