Scott's expression turns almost comically perplexed, like he truly doesn't understand why she'd be laughing about such a suggestion. But then she elaborates and... is she implying that this Scott-- her Scott, doesn't train at all?? He doesn't have to lead the X-Men in numerous Danger Room sessions? He doesn't have the Professor to impress??
It feels so foreign that he doesn't even how know to respond for a moment.]
The... sandwich shop. [Scott slowly repeats. Okay, he's really getting the hint now that he and this other Scott share very different lives despite them both being Scott Summers. Except this Scott is the one that has a cute girlfriend, that gets to live a normal life and how is that even fair??
That ugly feeling rises in his chest again, suddenly feeling overwhelmed once more, but thanks to his X-Men training, he pushes it back. Actually, he wants to go back home again, so he doesn't have to be reminded how much things could be better for him.]
Lead the way. [He says after a moment, his voice just a little more clipped now.]
