Hearing her mention his mother, his face closed off a little. He still wasn't at the forgiving point future him was at. But it wasn't as bad a reaction as it would have been had Steve not seen that episode of their show.

It stung and made his heart break.
"I think at the very least this has me on my way to earning my Doctor Phil mustache." He rubbed at his face though. "Are you sure I have the face for facial hair though? I don't want to look like a creeper after all."
