Avery takes a sip of his drink and nods.
"I admit, I had doubts about us being able to get along as well, Sydney. I was..angry at first about not knowing about Zoey.
But I realized that you did everything you could do short of conjuring me out of thin air. You've done an amazing job with her. I'm glad she's had you all her life, Sydney, and that she has the Defenders looking after her as well." he says.
"I just hope she'll consider me as awesome as the the rest of them someday." he says.
Suddenly, Avery puts a hand to his forehead as if he's in pain, and he's silent for a long moment, barely managing to put his drink down before dropping it.
The moment passes, but Sydney will see a thin rivulet of blood coming from Avery's nose.
