Oh.

[ Why is everything about this so messed up? Everyone's falling all over themselves to apologize to each other - to him - and no one will buy his apologies. He can't even give them away.

And now Rich, who has nothing to do with any of the mess, is blaming himself, because god forbid anyone blame Robbie in public. This is supposed to Rich's second, better life - not an opportunity for him to blame himself for the hot minute he was actually on earth when everything was going down. ]

I wouldn't have gone along with it anyway. You saw me. I was invested. Reed Richards tried to talk me out of it. I think I ran into Namor once... Hell, Doc Samson tore through the entire Thunderbolts facility and practically begged me to leave with him. I didn't.

[ He's not proud of it, but Robbie won't pretend that he was completely deprived of a choice here. The Thunderbolts took no precautions with him or his powers. He could've broken out at any time. ]

It wouldn't have mattered what you did. I would've fought you to stay because I really thought it was better treatment than I deserved.
