[He doesn't usually go around blabbing about being a superhero to everyone but between this and Miles' universe, it's been a really weird few days.]
[He watched his own funeral, for crying out loud.]
[He looks at the roof as he works it all out in his head, the mental algebra of owning up to over twenty years of closely guarded secrets weighed against potentially helping other young people that are like he used to be.]
[His brain solves for X.]
Normally, I'm not so open about this but it's been a weird few days for me. Like, really weird. Like, indescribably weird.
[He suddenly feels awkward and exposed but continues with what he was going to say, as he starts laying out more tiles.]
I'm a superhero. I've been one of the only ones in my world since around your age. Started out when I was sixteen.
[He shakes his head.]
Which means meeting kids that are dealing with similar weirdness at that age is surreal. Like looking in a funhouse mirror. I don't whether to high five you or try and kick you back through a portal home.
