[As each punch gets blocked, he wonders just how bad it would be if Peter wasn't chill. Or if there's someone like this back home, someone just as strong or even more powerful, but actually want to hurt him or his friends? Destroy the fragile peace between humans and mutants. It doesn't feel impossible, honestly, it feels like an inevitability and something sour forms on his tongue.
He knows that he might become 'Cyclops' in the future and he's okay with that, maybe even ready, but it's still hard to think about.
Not to mention, what will he do if he can't fend off an opponent, like what's happening now? There's a moment where Scott's hits become quicker, maybe even vicious, but he pulls himself back because this is Peter and he likes him. His words help to bring the mutant out of his own headspace anyway, resuming his prior workout as Peter switches to blocking with his forearms.
Eventually though, Scott slows to a stop, breaths coming in quickly as he lets his arms rest by his sides. Time for a small break, especially since he wants to talk with Peter more about this.]
Yeah, guess this is all pretty different, huh? [...] And I learned from other Chosen, like Izuku, Kotone. But recently been training with the other X-Men as well-- they're mutants, like me. I... I figured it was about time I started practicing with them.
[Prepare himself here. Prepare for the possible future back home.] It's why it's good to train with people that are like you.
[Just lightly encouraging for him to train with Gwen and other Peter.]
