i've suspected many are from a similar world as mine, but i have avoided in engaging with most. i do not know of any x-men, though somebody here told me of an x gene so i suspect it is related. there are avengers, but i do not associate with them. i was working for shield when they were assembled, but i was overlooked as an option for the roster. part of me is bitter about this fact despite me wanting nothing to do with them. they do not even know i exist.

no, none of us can help what we are. my abilities have been used against me most of my life, and as dangerous as they are i do not blame others for finding me terrifying or not trusting me. but just as you're concerned with your safety, my sense of control over my own life has been highly compromised and therefore my instinct to protect my fragile sense of security has little to do with you and more with my own paranoia. so i do hope you don't take it personally.

actually it means a lot. thank you.

oh if it's a popular self pity retreat then i'll avoid it. makes me feel more pathetic.
