canon reviewing has been a little painful.

It's amazing how so many things can go wrong in an instant.  My powers have always had to do with probability....  Perhaps much of this was the consequence of it.  Of tampering with reality, challenging probability.

There's a lot I have to atone for, more than I ever did when I was with the Brotherhood.  Even if I can't fix things, I still have to try.  And I have to do it alone.  I was never an X-man and I no longer have the right to call myself an Avenger.  This battle isn't something I can run from, we both know that.  If the Avengers and the X-men don't destroy each other, the Phoenix will destroy us all.  I can't allow either.

If anything, I'll stand with Hope.

It takes a lot of strength to stand up for what you believe in, especially when it's an unpopular stance.

[Dick sighs, remembering his own issues with Bruce, and then a sudden pang of longing for his own father.]

So I heard... but, take it from me... don't let things get in between you two. Regardless of what he's done, or what he believes, he's still your dad and he won't be around forever.

Not a day goes by that I don't miss my dad.

We've fought so much. And perhaps we'll fight again in the upcoming battles... I don't know if blood is strong enough to overcome that..

I'm sorry.

Blood isn't what makes you family. You may not see eye-to-eye, but you love each other. That's all that counts.

I'll try to remember that. Thank you, really.
