well at least you're pretty far forward and know most things

meanwhile i'm sitting here wondering why i'm going to have a midlife crisis in the future!

[gammas]

Are you kidding me? I'm like, the furthest ahead out of everyone and I still don't know anything because no one tells me anything!!! Aarrgh!

And you don't get a midlife crisis. You get a costume change and you cut your hair and it's a silly haircut.

[trickshot]

well when i get back i'll tell you things

i don't know what, but there will be things.

and i am definitely going to have a midlife crisis. pietro said they rope me into teaching! and i like this costume. i just got it back.

[gammas]

Yeah, well, you haven't told me anything yet so I'm not holding my breath. No offense.

What???? See what I'm saying about no one tells me anything?? Why would you even teach? You're the last person I'd imagine as a teacher.

[trickshot]

well maybe if you were easier to get a hold of i could tell you things!

and i don't even know. i was already splitting my time at home. maybe i get the superpower of being everywhere at once.

[gammas]

I am the easiest person to get a hold of! How do you think they get me on all these teams? They just ring me up and go, "Hey, Shulkie! Mind joining Nighthawk and Krang to fight whatever?" And I'm like, "Yeah, sure! I don't have anything better to do!" You're just not trying hard enough.

If you keep that up, you're going to be the next Wolverine.

[trickshot]

well i'm sorry i was busy trying to rescue steve and then stop osborn from tearing down asgard and then going to spain to track a dirty bomb! and, oh yeah? as soon as i get to catch my breath i'm here! you could have called me.

i don't want to be the next wolverine. i'm way cooler than him, anyway.

[gammas]

I don't even get invited to these things!!! I mean, I know I'm not an Avenger anymore, but it's not like I can't be included too! Like, what about that thing with the hammers, huh? No one asked me to help except for Howard the Duck! And I'm just as busy as you are and it's like, we barely talk anymore -- I'd end up calling you in the middle of like, some huge Avenger-y thing or something!

You're so going to be the next Wolverine. You're going to be EVERYWHERE.

[trickshot]

well you could just come drop in. whatever avenger-y thing was going on, you could help. and then we could talk.

well i can't blame everyone if they want my help but they really need to form a line, or something.

[gammas]

Or you can just come visit me. You should do that instead.

I bet it's the new haircut that attracts everyone. I hate the new haircut.

[trickshot]

yeah but if you came and saw me you could visit everyone else, too.

it's a haircut. how bad could it be?

[gammas]

But that's so super, duper awkward.

Sometimes it makes me think that you just shaved your head and then that just hurts me deeply in the heart.

[trickshot]

it's only awkward if you make it awkward. come on, we've all been friends for years.

i don't shave my head! i'd never do that.

[gammas]

Uuuugh. Okay, I'll try. I'm seeing him after he's done with his thing with Pietro. So I can try. I guess.

But that's what it feels like! You just cut off all of your long, pretty hair and get a buzzcut and it looks stupid.

[trickshot]

good luck.

and, seriously, "long pretty hair?" i'm not rapunzel, here.

[gammas]

Thanks. I'll need it.

And that doesn't make your hair any less long or pretty. It's also golden like the sun.

[trickshot]

i think you're mixing up me and thor

[gammas]

you're both my golden-haired heroes?

[trickshot]

oh

well i guess i can live with that

[gammas]

Don't worry though; Goldilocks doesn't compare to you. You don't have competition.

[trickshot]

thanks for that

i was starting to worry

[gammas]

And now you can put your worries at ease, big guy.

[trickshot]

guess i can always count on you for that
