<<Stop calling me that,>> he grumbles, choosing to focus on that rather than the almost compliment. Easier this way. He side-eyes her when she asks him to trust her; that doesn’t really com easily with him, especially being a mutant around an Avenger, but he doesn’t immediately bolt for the door. That’s progress.
The first few spoken lines start up, and his side-eye turns into an incredulous stare at Kate’s phone. Had he been able to, he would have let his mouth drop open just for extra effect.
<<This is…this is so much worse than anything I could have imagined. Jesus Christ. Thanks for dredging up nightmares from my childhood.>>

Turning off the super catchy tune she turns back to the mutant. She eyes him over, taking in the fact that her friends is hot despite the fact that half of his body is a gaping hole of fire. Or whatever.
“ What are you gonna do? Rick Roll me? That’s the softest meme there is in this day and age. ”
