[ It's a few days before he's capable or willing to even look at his phone, let alone the network. He doesn't watch the video, but he makes himself read the comments on the post, lingering on the exchange between Tommy and Cy.
What do you even say about that? He's very tempted to just leave it and let the kid deal things himself, but he's also pretty aware of the fact that he's technically the most senior of the X-Men in the city, and maybe Scott's lectures are rubbing off on him because he feels a really annoying sense of responsibility. ]
hey
look, I'm sorry you had to see that

[ Wow this is not a text he wants to get. At least a few days later he's not entirely alone anymore. Billy's present which is something, and he and Josh had a bitch and vent about it. So he's fine. He's fine. He's handling it. Generally handling it means ignoring the problem, so getting this throws him. It's a very quick sequence of emotions--that same panicked nausea, anxiety, anger, annoyance, compartmentalization. It's fine. ]
yeah well
cant unsee it
its not a big deal
[ And then, not unlike Han Solo asking how the storm troopers are doing, Tommy's fingers type without his permisson--]
ur ok tho?

[ From what little he saw of Tommy's reaction on the network, it definitely seems like it was a big deal. But he'll let him live that lie if he needs to. God knows he can't speak to healthy coping mechanisms. ]
yeah sure [ Two can play the lying game. ]
where are you? in the Up?

where are you? in the Up?
just so I know where you are
look if you saw that [ And that's the closest he'll get to acknowledging it. ] you know they've got stuff here that can cancel out mutant powers
so stay the hell out of trouble

[ that? That is not helping. That's the opposite of helping! Now he's thinking about the possibility of having his powers nerfed, and that's somehow worse than everything else so far! Note to self: talking to Logan just makes things worse. ]
cool
Great
Idk who taught you how to make people feel better but they should get a 1 star review

[ And he hasn't even reached the part where he learned this in part because he's spent too much time fucking Tommy's uncle. ]
I'm not here to make you feel better kid

good for you
I figured you wanted to be treated like an adult and told what's going on here
guess I'll stop including you if you can't handle it

[ oh that is underhanded! What a tactic! If he tells Logan to get fucked then he's a child who can't handle it, if he doesn't tell Logan to get fucked, he's dependent. Great. ]
i am an adult whether u want to treat me like one or not
i just dont want to be part of the pity party of people whove given up

if you want me to treat you like an adult try acting like one
this place is more dangerous than you know
but if you want to go leaping into the middle of shit without looking that's fine by me bub
I'll keep an eye out for your scrawny ass on the next network broadcast
