( but he obliges. it's not the clearest, since there's turbulence. but it's bob, with a big bulky headset on that's pushing unruly hair into his face. his eyes are wide and ... haunted, maybe? it looks like he tried for a smile but landed somewhere closer to a wince. )
[Hers is clearer, and she manages a smile, but did not manage, possibly did not try, to mask the concern. There's an important part she's realized she didn't ask about.]
Are you doing this because you want to or because you feel like you have to? Do you want us to meet you there or do you want something of your own?
No, it isn't that I don't want to come. I just made an assumption that you wanted to do it on your own, since you were already in the helicopter when you texted me, and I did not even really realize I was doing it. I'm sorry. I didn't want you to think I didn't have faith in you to handle it by yourself.
I will not lie to you and claim that I am not concerned about what could happen.
But if you are telling me that you feel capable, that you are having just a normal level good day, your eyes are not doing the concerning thing in either direction, and you are doing something that may not even require you to use your powers... it is not a bad test case, and I have faith in you.
It would be cool to meet the space raccoon and see whatever crash-landed here and I always enjoy spending time with you, so. That would never be the only reason I wanted to come.
[The thing she did not mention, which she felt a little guilty about, was that she had already started towards that general area. It's not because of a lack of trust, truly. She just wants to be there if he needs her.]

But I want to help.
I guess maybe I
just didn't expect you not to want to come?

all valid.

Yeah, maybe. Maybe it's not a bad test case
Thanks for trusting me a little bit
For real

Do you want all of us, or just me?
