"I am chill. I'm completely chill," Sam lied with a shift of his eyes away from Jubilee's look. He knew he was freaking out over nothing. He couldn't help it, though. Because all he was thinking about was how he didn't want to deal with government goons again. It was bad enough when they were taken in by Sector Seven. Dealing with Simmons and his buddies was not high on his list of best memories ever. At least Bee wasn't around, because he'd have to explain why his car was able to drive itself, and he knew that wouldn't really help with the not getting taken in by the government. He was trying something to keep his mind from running a mile a minute, and that was counting in his head to ten. Maybe it would somehow calm him a little, that way then he would look less like a psych case to this new person. He didn't want that Witwicky curse thing to end up actually being true. He wasn't about to join the ranks of people in a padded cell.
"You haven't been chased by freaky alien robots wanting to kill you or anything, have you?," he asked, deciding it was best to see if maybe she'd dealt with the kind of freaky stuff that he and Mikaela had dealt with recently. He raised his eyebrows a little whenever she mentioned being an atom bomb when she wanted to be, because he still hadn't put it together that the words mutant and point and paff had some meaning when it came to her. Like, she happened to be a mutant, who had special abilities and stuff. Sam was just a normal teenage boy, who happened to know about the existence of alien robots. He didn't know that strange things went past that, so he wasn't leaning toward thoughts of Jubilee being a mutant with special abilities.
"An atom bomb?," he asked after a moment, "You're not like, an anger management case or something, are you?" What, that was the first thing he could think of, because he wasn't thinking about special abilities or super powers. And, he needed that as a warning maybe, so he would remember not to piss her off. He was good with words and running away from giant alien robots. Not.. dealing with the physical of not ending up all killed by a psycho.
