Dose anyone know if we can get delivery here?

I mean, I know there's food and kitchens and everything, but I'm not sure I trust what the heavily veiled creepy people are going to be making in there. I'd kinda feel better if I could order a pizza. Or a twenty pizzas.

Also some coffee would hit the spot too.

Oh, sorry, was I talking to fast for you? The energy thing, man. [He doesn't look sorry at all. Quicksilver's kind of a dick.]

At least I might actually get some here, without the Blob hogging all the food.

Nah, not much is too fast for me. They don't call me the fastest man alive for nothing, you know.

[He shrugs amiably at the needling, since it's... not like he knows who this kid is or that he's actually trying to be a dick about their respective speeds.]

Hey, I can't help it if I have a hyper-accelerated metabolism, can I? It goes with the whole speed deal.

Fastest man alive? HAH! That's rich. Sounds like a challenge, if you ask me. [Pietro knew the costume had gotten his attention for a reason. Another speedster? He couldn't pass up the opportunity to prove himself better. The possibility he might lose... hadn't occurred to him yet.]

Only guy I know with a metabolism like that is easily ten times your size.

Hey, I'm always up for a race, but just so you know, I've never actually lost one.

Well, not without something like a supervillain trying something anyway. [Because it happens far too often sometimes.]

I mean, they've even got a part of the Flash museum set up about my races! How cool is that?

Waitwaitwait. You're telling me that you've got superspeed... so people built a museum for you? That's either complete bullshit, or you're way older than you look, pops.

Either way, I assure you, I've never lost a race, either. [He's ignoring the supervillain comment. He can't tell if the guy's serious or not.]

Not just because I have superspeed. I'm a hero! You save a city and, you know, the rest of the world enough times and it's kinda understandable that they'd want to thank you somehow.

I mean, yeah, a museum is a lot more than I ever expected but it's still totally awesome! You should visit some time.

Anyway, you said you're fast too?

...nah, I tried the do-gooder thing. It's for chumps. [It probably wouldn't have been such a bad experience if the Brotherhood hadn't been deliberately setting up disasters for the sole purpose of stopping them and basking in the attention.]

But yeah, fast doesn't even begin to cover it. They don't call me Quicksilver for nothing.

Dude, that kinda sounds like something a bad guy would say, no offense. Besides, being a hero isn't about getting rewards or anything. Yeah, the museum is nice, but it wouldn't matter if I had it or not. I'm happy protecting my city.

[Yeah, he's starting to get the feeling that this kid might not be so great at the helping people thing. But maybe he just needs a mentor???]

And I'm guessing it's also the hair, right? Not going grey early, are you?

The only difference between good guys and bad guys is that the "good guys" won, and got to write the history books. [Yes, he does use air quotes.] And besides, I'm not risking my neck for a bunch of humans who'd be perfectly happy to see me lynched.

[Quicksilver, Magneto's son, bad at helping people? Nonsense. He's great at helping... himself.]

It's white, thanks. And it's always been this color. And yes, I have always made it look this good.
