Hey, I'm adorable. [He grins as though to accentuate that point.]

And sure he does, he's growing.

[doubled_speed]

You're really not adorable. Sorry. Aunt Lorna? Adorable but deadly. But you? You look like you need to shave and maybe get yourself some hair gel.

[Well of course he's growing. Tommy moves to lift Speedy back onto his climbing rig.]

The book says they can live more than forty years in captivity. I'm hoping when I leave here, the Sphere sends him with me. So I can take care of him.

[brightboy]

Thanks. Maybe the Underground can raid a Rite Aid. [He scoffs.] We had more important things to worry about than showers. I hate it, but it's the truth.

[He frowns.]

Right. I'll make sure we set the pets to transfer.

[Because that's his biggest concern right now.]

Hey Marcos, bet you didn't know your girlfriend dated an x-man back in tommy's world

[doubled_speed]

Nah man, you've gotta go with Walgreens. Better 'fight the system' color choice there.

[Marcos, stop harshing his chill here, okay? Your'e cramping his style.]

Geez, you're Aunt Lorna's type? I mean, yeah, you're a step up from dating Havoc or Iceman, but wow.

[brightboy]

My family's at risk. [And he's dead serious. Marcos doesn't smile much in general, but...this is deeply personal.] ...Dawn isn't going to have the same dad I did. She just...won't.

[doubled_speed]

Yeah, and she clearly won't have the same dead-beat Lorna had, because Gramps is a shit parent. But at the moment? You need to take care of you and Lorna. So stop being here, judging my little buddy, and go see her? Would probably good for Aunt Lorna to see you.

[Right? That makes sense, right?]

[brightboy]

[Marcos couldn't help but smile at that, and he nodded.]

For the record, I'm not judging Speedy, okay? But...yeah. I'll be back. Maybe.

[doubled_speed]

Maybe works for me. I like having a large bed all to myself.
