( the touch to his arm gets him to look down to scott's hand and he's silent as he stares to it; he still feels cold. like his mere presence is that to impose. only after a moment does he look up and offers the other mutant the faintest smile he can manage. )
You're the Summers here between us. I'm just some guy who fell from one universe into another by accident.
( at that, he gently pulls back some. )
If you need my help, I'll come. Just try to stay out of trouble.
[He's not just some guy!! Scott will just think that thought loudly in Nate's general direction, just because.
Also, eyebrow arching at that comment.]
You realize that between the two of us, you've been the one that's gotten into trouble more.
[LOOK he's just saying!! He hasn't fallen into a coma or died so he thinks his track record is a bit better right now. Maybe a low blow but Scott never said he was above such things.]
But I will. And same goes for you, okay? I still can't fully control my powers, but guess I'm more used to them now.
Well it matters to me. I don't want our next conversation to be about you getting hurt again from something stupid.
[He'll make it an order or something!! Yeah!! Even though he's not really in any sort of leadership position here-- he's definitely not Cyclops yet. Or ever. Who fucking knows. Still, he wants to make it known to Nate that he won't be happy about that.]
Guess it helps to know that even the other me still has to wear sunglasses all the time. I mean, it sucks too, but. [Face scrunch, as if he has a hard time really explaining it all. He waves his hand dismissively instead.]
Yeah, I'll keep practicing or whatever. It's what I have.
( he’s not really sure what else to say to that, so.
a sigh soft in the way it leaves his lips, he slides his hands into his pockets and stands there staring to the other mutant for a little longer. it’s funny to think this is more or less all he has left for family when they’re also so very far from being anything close to that.
with that in mind, he glances down for a moment. )

dadscott. )I'm running on borrowed time so it doesn't matter much.
( he's only got a few years left to live before his body shuts down on him because he's Too Powerful. thanks, sinister. )
as for your powers, you'll figure them out.
( just like he's had to figure out his own. )
