You should come show me your coat. I'll try on that shirt for you.
I tried, back in April, that is what SHIELD was allowing me to do after my research was stolen by a man who has turned out to be an agent of HYDRA, we've learned. And I thought it might work, but I wasn't able to get enough anti-sera. even with all the blood I drew.
I mean, Victoria Hand knows my concerns, but she's the one in SHIELD who sponsored my attempts to reverse my cure. She's also the one who handcuffed me to a wall. But I trust her more than she can trust me apparently and I've worked on cures with some people here, so, they're in the know. But equally as invested as I am, I think.
And then Raven knows, kind of. I don't know what Charles knows. But most of the mutants here are unaware of anything more than that I have been attempting to reverse my own mutation. And that's a divisive enough conversation to have.
I can't go to them with the confession that my attempts may have endangered them all. Perhaps I'm afraid and self-flagellation's easier or I need something to first show that it's not the problem I fear it is before I can address it.
But If I'm unwilling to take these risks, can I even pretend to belong on this team?
