[Voice / Action]
[Okay, so. Several things need to be dealt with here, one way or another. First being the fact that he has a facetwin hanging around who is pretty damn hard to explain, though Tommy being more or less okay with the "brother" title helps with that. Second is that he knows the truth about his heritage now, which is, in short, a huge weight off his shoulders. Third is that his strength is mostly back in his arm as long as he doesn't bend or twist it in a way that stresses his brace too much, which admittedly doesn't mean much, but it does mean that he's able to finish the sketches he'd promised to Pepper's art gallery.
Thus, since it's so warm and dry today, he'll be heading out to deliver a set of hefty-sized rolled sheets of drawing paper to Pepper's art gallery, and then to swing by Tony's house to catch up on some work and maybe fill his... sort-of employer in on the recent developments. Mainly the kid with Billy's face who is probably going to hate him for a while. Tommy's not as keen to forgive as some people.
His last stop will be the plaza, armed with a miniature sketchbook, and props himself up against the side of the fountain to draw whatever comes his way. Occasionally he might have to stop and give his hand a frustrated shake, but hey, there's no physiotherapy like a good work-out, right?
At some point while he's out, though, he'll be doing what he told himself he'd get done: a journal entry that is better late than never.]
[Voice, locked from Tommy]
Hey, it's Billy. Just wanted to get it out there that if you see anybody with my face - or hear my voice, I guess - that's Tommy, my... brother. Kind of. It's complicated. He might be a bit tough to deal with sometimes, but he's not a bad guy, so just try to put up with him, if you can. He could use some friends.
[....]
Just don't let this get back to him, I'd never hear the end of it.

[Voice]
Is Pietro a ladies man too?
[Is it a speedster thing? Should he worry about Tommy's romantic endeavors?]
[Voice]
[She laughs dryly]</small Really though, Tommy seems like a pretty fun guy.
[Voice]
Ah... he can be, yeah. As long as you don't mind his kind of fun.
[Voice]
[Voice]
[Voice]
But hey, you're a good kid. You remind me a lot of Kitty when she was younger. Except the whole being a wizard and a boy thing.
[Voice]
[His correction is made with a slight smirk, though- no offense taken or intended, he's just a little picky. There's a difference, okay?]
Thanks, though. It's a huge honour to have even a little bit of respect from the adult supers here- I know we have a lot to learn, but we've got a lot of people helping us, too.
[Voice]
[She laughs]
Hey, from what I know? You're doing better than the X-Men when they first started out. Kang...that guy's weird. And you've handled things here very well. This is a messed up situation, but you guys have a good handle on it.
But whats the deal with Tommy anyway? Just...super-speed?
[Voice]
He can also destabilize atomic matter, apparently. Shake things up until they explode. There could be more, but that's all I know about.
[Voice]
That sounds like it could be useful. Though, maybe a little difficult to control.
[Voice]
[Voice]
[Voice]
[And in school, too... it would be eerie if it was the same day.]
He's from a few months ahead of me, apparently, so maybe a year would be my guess.
[Voice]
[She pauses]
Its good to know everything turns out alright, with the war and stuff. Teddy told me a bit.

[A merry laugh]
Not fond of the experiments, or the missions, or the drafts, but you've gotta admit, at least there aren't a lot of bad people here.
[Voice]
[Voice] Hope this isn't too hammy an ending, I gotta close out some threads though =O
[She pauses, and there's something of a gasp as she realizes just how late the time was]
Hey, I've got some boxing lessons to get to with Mac. I'll see you later kiddo.
[Voice] nope, fine by me :|b
[Boxing lessons with Mac? Teddy's going to be so jealous when he hears.]
