There's things I wish I could do, too.

[Do magic like Billy. Shoot a bow and arrow properly like Kate. Have an internal library like Vision. But Teddy knows what can come out of getting what you wish for, for people to like you not for who you are, but for what they want you to be. All those little things you'd want - a slimmer nose, smoother hair, growing taller, he could do all that.

But in the process, he lost who he himself was. Until he joined a group who loved him for just being who he was, and rather than use his power to shape himself into what people wanted, he'd do so to be what people needed. A hero.

And he's never been happier to be a Young Avenger, despite all that's happened.]


But I think I'm just happy with what I can do. [Teddy offers another smile as he leans forward and rests his arm against his knees.] So what can you do? I'd like to see it.
