Yo. So I've kinda got a question for people who've done this whole [waving a hand] "hero thing" before, or gotten involved in these sorta fights. What do you tell your family 'n all that about - this whole mess? Do ya tell them anything? 'Cause ma came to the big city for New Year's, an' we were talkin' about things... I just wasn't sure what to say.

I don't wanna go scarin' her, or get her involved in this mess. But I don't wanna lie.

Any thoughts?

[Locked to his team:]

And by the way, ma brought a hamper of stuff to share with friends. Shit, you'd think she was trying to make me explode: I've got enough here to keep me goin' for weeks. So... I wanna split this with you guys. You up for it?

.. You're that worried about it?

[ Sorry, worrying about parental figures is not something he can understand as easily.. ]

[realmenknitplushies]

Yeah, I'm worried. [A bit of a shrug-] That 'n I don't wanna get hell every time I call home over somethin' unrelated.

[deceases]

I can understand that last part. [ At least that.. not that his parents often give him hell, but.. well, it happens. Sometimes.

Although suddenly he realises the easiest way to figure this out-- ]

Well, she knows you're a mutant, right?

[realmenknitplushies]

[Okay, what's that got to do with... he shrugs.]

Sure. Known since I was somethin' like ten. Basically came here so I could try 'n not get into trouble with my powers.

If she accepts that, then she'll probably accept this. [ Especially if she found out when he was so young.. ]

I've heard stories of people who didn't even accept it with their own kids. [ .. or grandkids, in his case.. ] So I guess they've got to be accepting people to even do that much.
