[It's good Peter feels better hearing it. It lifts something heavy in Leo's heart, but he wasn't sure what exactly it was that had been weighing him down this last hour... few months? Year. The idea that Peter feels safe doing something to him.
But the question has him pause, rubbing at his chin in thought.]
I ...think I remember her? Like, I remember a nice lady who fed me dinner a couple times, but never really thought about it since I haven't seen her in a while come to think of it.
[Leo stops what he's doing to watch Peter as he explains.
That.. Oh. So he really, truly had no one he could talk to for the last year like this. Something cracks in Leo's heart, only to be put back together with his own determination.]
He still misses May, he always will but he just wanted to understand.]
I just- wanted to know if you remembered her. I mean, this whole memory thing is crazy and- I don't know how Doctor Strange's magic even works to be honest. I'm more used to the ninpo since- that's what we share.
...Yeah, it's - I dunno how magic and all that stuff works. [Illusions and stage magic is one thing. Sign him up to watch someone create illusions to manipulate and trick people in low stakes. But real magic? Magic with no explanation? A mystery he isn't all that interested in.]
Still. [He leans to nudge Peter's shoulder with his own.] If we start getting our memories back, we'll remember her.
