“ please don’t start with me, okay? ” Scott !!!
nothing would ever feel natural about being in allegiance with the x-men and avengers or , anyone who might consider themselves their friends . afterall --- enemies could never betray you . there was one brightside to this at least , in that he didn’t have to surround himself with them at all times , and could live his life as he pleased ( knock on wood, pietro; don’t jinx it ) —— but there was still a subtle sense of anxiety that came with helping them , the knowledge and experience that they could do as much evil as good ever present in the back of his mind . pietro , though , being the astonishing and wonderful little soldier he was , sucked it up . beggers couldn’t be choosers , right ?
when he meets scott summers during one of those unfortunate instances where he finds himself at headquarters ( he’s not positive if that’s the word for it —— he just knows he’s there , and it’s way too expensive for his tastes ) , he doesn’t know what to think , other than something along the lines of not this asshole again . maybe one of these days he’ll actually say it out loud , but for now , pietro will settle for straightened posture and apathy , careful to lace his tone with disinterest just to put the cherry on top .
