Scott wonders if he should be alarmed that this random stranger is the first person to actually recognize him to some degree (or maybe others have recognized him, just didn't say anything). She doesn't seem threatening, not to mention that she's young, but he's unable to let his guard down all that much, not when he's in a new city and away from his teammates. Even if Magneto has taken charge of the X-Men, he still puts himself responsible for all of them. They're his family, his friends, even if it's sometimes hard to say it out loud. He cares so much for them, but at the same time, he has to make sure they're always ready for mutant threats. It doesn't give him much room to relax.
But get a grip, Summers, you have a mystery to focus on right now, so he looks down at Guinaifen with a mostly neutral expression, his visor gazing at her eyes.]
Yeah, I've been known to do that every so often. [...] So, you might have the right guy.
[He wonders if he should admit that he doesn't know her at all.] I hear that I sometimes look older on TV.
