This time he's more certain and conscious of what he's saying when he says it. "I love you, Giovanna. I have for some time. I just wasn't very good at saying it when I should have."
That said, he looks back to the documents on the table. "Politics often isn't practical. The biggest problem we're dealing with is fear itself. People are afraid, and that's a hard thing to get around. Magneto casually destroyed some of the best defenses they could build with a wave of his hand at times. The Marauders killed... who knows how many people? That guy at the supermarket might not even need a gun or bomb to destroy the place. Same way we don't know who might be some fanatic out to kill everyone in our gene pool, who might back the sentinel program. Practical has nothing to do with anything - we need to be able to hand the nations some kind of reassurance. Something to convince them we're not always on different sides, and that sometimes the notion of a human side and a mutant side handicaps all of us. Intelligence on genuine threats is one of those things. If they can put names on the 'bad mutants', it makes it easier for us to wear the white hats."
