"I think we're superhero clones," Jaime jokingly declared. "Oh man, do I know that feeling." A pause. "All of those feelings."
He paused and looked very reflective.
"You should definitely make sure you keep focusing on that. On school. That is important. Trust me, you don't wanna be like me." He still kicked his feet lightly as he sat there. "I'm, like, sort of a base level of really powerful even if I'm still learning, so in terms of 'someone has to do it' there's a lot I can do. So I quit school to superhero full time since I get a stipend with the Defenders, which... I know is going to bite me in the butt later. I'm still amazed my mom didn't murder me."
He was rambling wasn't he. She was kind of easy to ramble at.
"What I mean is you're right to put that as a priority." He pointed at her the way a superhero might in a public service announcement. "Don't do drugs and stay in school. It's just if you ever have the time on the side..."
It was good to be prepared for what superheroing tossed your way.
He reached back to the backpack section of his armor.
"In any case, here."
He always carried an extra comm around. Just in case his suit ever went on the fritz in a fight so he couldn't use it to buzz people. He held it out to her.
