Wow, mun. I can't say I'm the greatest hero just yet, but I'll try to live up to it!

Um. But do we really have to use this icon? It's embarrassing, and I think people might get the wrong idea.

I don't think American politics is about commanding people to be evil and vetoing anything you don't like.

[futureleader]

No? But who says I'm going to obey the constitution? I'm doing everything I can to get impeached.

[greatestheroever]

If you get impeached, I really will vote that you have to wear a shirt saying you love the school. And you won't be able to veto it then.

[futureleader]

Well shit, Evan. You truly are the evil mastermind here.

[greatestheroever]

[Here comes the sulk again.]

That's not true, and you know it. Don't you think Professor Xavier wanted you to be President for a reason? You shouldn't just throw it away.

[futureleader]

Don't guilt me with Chuck, Evan.

[greatestheroever]

It's not guilting. I don't know why he did it, but he must've thought it was a good idea. No one would've voted for you otherwise.

[futureleader]

He did it for his own dumb reasons. That and revenge for what I did at the last school. I'm almost certain of it.

[greatestheroever]

What reasons? [It's not like Evan knew Xavier.] Seems like an odd way to get revenge.

[futureleader]

Like I'd tell you guys. Shouldn't that be between me and him?

[greatestheroever]

I guess you're right. It just seems like you guys have all this history with the teachers that I don't really get. And considering what I do know about them ... I'm curious.

But it's your business.

[futureleader]

...I won't tell you what he told me but I'm pretty sure you can figure it out on your own. I was his last star student in the old school and if you don't know what I did at the last school then clearly they haven't put me in the text books yet.

[greatestheroever]

You were his star student?!

[People have called Quentin a lot of things in front of Evan, but star student isn't one of them.]

That doesn't sound like revenge, it sounds like he wanted you to be good again.

[futureleader]

Yeah and I was also Mister Do no Harm until I decided it was all a pointless waste of my time.

You apparently don't know the story, do you? I guess people really only remember the whole take-over on the United Nations.

[greatestheroever]

I am still kind of new, and I'm not sure I even understand the things I was involved with. None of it made sense at the time, and it still doesn't.

How is not doing harm a waste of time? I mean, you go out of your way to cause trouble. Isn't that more of a waste?

[futureleader]

You wouldn't understand, Evan. Not with you trying to be the opposite of your origin.

[greatestheroever]

You don't know me any better than I do you. Maybe I would understand.

[He doesn't think he would, but the whole idea of Quentin as star pupil is too weird to ignore.]

[futureleader]

I was tired of being promised a future that wasn't going to happen without action and when we should have been taught to take action we were taught to sit on our hands and act like nothing ever happened.

[greatestheroever]

But taking action doesn't mean turning bad. Heroes take action. They're action heroes!

[futureleader]

If only you lived in the world of yesterday, Evan.

[greatestheroever]

I might someday. We've got time travel.

[futureleader]

First stop on time travel with Doctor Evan, Quentin's bright past.

I bet your companion will be, like, Trevor or somebody lame.

[greatestheroever]

You mean Doctor Sabahnur? [Oh boy wow that sounds impressive.] I could teach a class on heroing. Your past self might even be a good role model for the students.

[He's actually not trying to needle Quentin with that comment. It just follows logically from the idea of him being a teacher and peeking in on past Quentin.]

That's a good idea. He can point out all the best sights.
