( he is definitely having a life. becoming an avenger was a dream, but the events before and after it were... messy, to say the least. finding out he's wanda's reincarnated child and that he had a brother who was in juvie, who then moved in with his family for a bit because his parents are overly supportive, but left because billy is, well, billy. then the whole, teddy's parentage thing, watching teddy being dissected, cassie die, a lot of the mess in between--if billy hadn't already struggled with depression and anxiety, everything he's been through would have been enough to trigger it.
but they don't need to get into that. rook doesn't need to hear billy's whole life story, or every incident that's broken him or nearly broken him down. he doesn't need to know about his time-traveling friend who turned his life upside down but also jump-started everything.
instead, billy offers him a smile. )
Stick around long enough, and I'm sure I'll end up falling through the sky again at some point. Or being knocked over by something else. Or anything else equally embarrassing for someone who's supposed to be a reality warper.
