[A gentle teasing jab at Teddy's usual response; he shouldn't be pointing fingers, after all, considering how much he loves to mumble. It was mostly understandable, though, and after a moment of quiet cuddling he lowers his hands to Teddy's shoulders again, urging him back a bit.]
I want you to be yourself, whatever you want to be, whatever feels the most natural to you. If you'd told me that day that you thought that form was who you were meant to be, and you really believed it, I'd have been okay with that. If you decided that Hulkling should be your real form, I'd still accept you. So no, I don't want you to turn into Tommy - that really is gross, by the way - and I don't want you to be anyone else, either. Just you. Just Teddy. That's more than enough for me.
