[His eyes widen at first, before he eases into a more astonished smile, pleasantly and somewhat shyly surprised that she'd agreed. Explaining his powers (and the whole Young Avengers thing) had been difficult enough after they'd rescued Teddy from the Super Skrull, nevermind attempting to give the full experience.
Now? Now he gets the chance to fly with her, something he's only really done with Teddy so far. A chance to show off what he can do and- maybe she'll like it. It's not as if she's never praised him - the psychological studies had ever been on his side in that regard, and at the core Rebecca Kaplan really was a fantastic mother whether she was annoying about it or not - but this is his talent. Something naturally his, the way academic success never could be.
And it's exciting to share.]
It'll be the smoothest ride you've ever had, I promise.
[He offers his hand out to her, blue energy flaring between the fingers of the other, making him hover gently above the ground.]
