"First off. I'm not gonna sugar coat this." Tristan began. "I know you've been doing good, but just doing good doesn't make you a hero. You need to face the facts that who you were... What you did. Nobody will ever simply forget about all of it. You did terrible things. You KILLED people." He emphasized the word kill. "Seriously Rad Girl. I don't know why you're so surprised that you're still seen as a villain. It's only been a little over 2 months." He was being pretty blunt about this. Sure he would have loved to spare her feelings, but if he did she wouldn't really listen to what he had to say. "And then you throw a tantrum over two people who barely know anything about you. Do you know that every hero who isn't affiliated with S.H.I.E.L.D. or has proved themselves is seen as a threat? A menace. My father... Even me... Have you seen a newspaper with me in it? 'The menace returns', 'A new masked menace for a new generation'." He wasn't letting her get a word in. not until he finished. Still he wasn't sure she could tell whether or not he was really serious. So he removed the mask. "So what? Are you gonna quit being a hero? Quit trying to prove yourself? Go back to what you were? Let me know right now because if that's the case then I'll know I was wrong when I stuck up for you and put my trust in you." He stared at her with a serious expression waiting for her to same something. Anything.
