"More people should be named Lightning." Don't give him that kind of dare look or he just won't be able to help himself. In this case though, he really did like the name. She wore the name so much better than that dillhole Flash at Peter's school. It was like naming Al Gore 'Gangsta'. But, no, she looks like she could pull off the name just fine.
It was strange to be anywhere where people didn't automatically know his name. It had forever been branded on his forehead simply because of who his father was. He'd managed to make enough of a name for himself independently to add a footnote to that sign, but to have someone really not know.. It was refreshing- like that honey energy.
"Tony." The answer comes a few moments later than would properly fit the flow of conversation, but he wasn't having the easiest time keeping up with reality vs what was going on in his mind. He also gets distracted noticing her hoodie and his own. He frowns as he looks from one to the other and then he glances around at the other passengers. He finally has enough mental space to be aware of people outside of Peter and himself. "Why... what's with the colored hoodies?"
