"Mostly sports and multiplayer shooters with my... friends," he answered, the last word full of a sad bitterness.

"And they seem like uh... super good friends." She takes a couple of steps down the bar to where Steve is, and puts a hand on his. "You okay?"

On contact she would catch a flash of several football players blocking any escape, just like the dream astronauts had.

Mercy doesn't really know what to say to that, so she extends one wing and lightly rests it on Steve's back in a sort of hug.

"Don't be sorry." Mercy squeezes Steve's hand, then pulls back a little. "I'm sorry that happened to you. People are assholes."

She winks. "But look at you now. You're an important businessman, own your own night club."

"Yeah, I'm totally awesome," he chuckled ironically. At least she wasn't pitying him.

"Oh sure, it's just in the Danger Room now, but we can set this up pretty easily back home. All we have to do is repeal the Mutant Registration Act, get the government to ban liquor again, and we're basically there!"

Mercy nods sagely. "And you know where you stand with them. No tricks, just pay or give up your kneecaps."

Mercy giggles. "This was fun. We should come in here again sometime. Maybe with a better idea of what we want to make the danger room do."
