miss lily rose evergreen, are you saying you don't find me charming? I'm shocked and wounded.
oh trust me, there is no time I'm as humble as when my nephews force me to buy spider-man band-aids because he's the only cool superhero. my sister will disagree with them only to look me dead in the eye and say warmachine's also pretty dope.
don't worry, I have a plan. I'll just move on to other plant life. once I'm out of that, I'll go for the latin names of various flowers and plants.
ah but my sweet, darling lilypad. have you considered that perhaps what I'm doing is create you a bouquet of nicknames, and if you were to look up the language of flowers you'd find I'd created quite the romantic poetry around you?
I mean, I haven't, but just imagine. I could have.
no see, they are like their mother, which means they exist to vex me and for now other reason. can't believe my own sister had not one but two children just to sic them on me.
God, I hope I'm off this station before that happens.
No. I definitely haven't, big bird.
[Okay, fine, he's Captain America now, but how can she pass up the opportunity to make a nickname for the Falcon? Okay, fine, he's better at this than she is.]

How old are your nephews?

I've let them play with the shield, at any rate. means something, y'know, to see little black kids see themselves in this symbol.
7 and 10. perfect age to make you feel uncool as an adult, even when you're a literal superhero.

I'm sure they're very proud of you
They just know to keep you humble. Even though it's clearly not working.

[And it can't come soon enough.]
I mean, you're making it pretty difficult to find you charming right now...
🙃
[She does find him charming in reality.]
I mean, if they're anything like their uncle...
I can imagine they'd just do it to annoy you.
