Spark 03: Video:

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?

[Oh. Yeah, he can see how that could happen pretty damn easily. Just being known as a mutant had been bad enough, to be visibly seen as one every day... yeah.]

Seriously. It's been ... good to be able to open up 'bout everything here, y'know?

[...Most things, at least.]

[He's (unknowingly) preaching to the choir on the 'most things' bit. M'gann gives a small, agreeing "mmmm."]

"You'll figure out what to say, I think. You seem..." [Okay, she's not sure if he really DOES have a way with words, but M'gann still wants to say something encouraging.] "To care a lot, so that should help. And come through!"

[There! Not bad if she says so.]

"I'll leave you to it, too... though if you want help or something, I could... you know, lend a hand."

[But for now? She should probably end the call before she blurts out anything else.]
