...I need them to keep my powers contained.

[His smirk vanishes and while Scott isn't bothered or upset, he's definitely a little more serious. Like this matter is personal and important to him, which, it is. He's gotten a lot better accepting his lack of control and he's made some progress despite of that after months of training, but it doesn't erase the main thing holding back him.]

I can't control my powers, not really. If I didn't have these glasses, I'd have to walk around with my eyes closed the entire time.

< ...Oh. >

[It seemed like an innocent question, but now they regret bringing it up. For all Scott was proud of his powers just a moment ago, they seem just as much a curse as they are a gift.]

< Even good things come with a catch, huh? >

Yeah, something like that. But really, I'm glad that I'm a mutant and everything. [He can't really imagine not having his powers anymore.] Besides, it gave me a reason to get out of that crappy school in Ohio.

[And now he's going to some fancy institute in New York. From the sound of things, it's likely he's going to be staying there for a while, but he'll figure more of that when he actually gets back.

Besides, the waiter's finally back to take their orders, even if he looks extremely reluctant, maybe even unpleasant. Scott just barrels on ahead, ordering the dish that Dante requested him to get.]
