Teddy has spent most of his life trying to make himself into what fits best, and though training to be a Young Avenger put him in pretty good shape, it's now something he has to maintain on his own. He could probably ask Cap- either Cap- for help, but the idea of it embarrasses him, so he works out on his own schedule. He's showered and changed into fresh board shorts and a tee, toed on his sandals instead of the hideous lime green sneakers he found in the basement, and started out of the Compound for the boardwalk when he runs into Magneto.

"Uh," he says, lifting a hand in greeting, "hi."

The last time they really spoke it was at Christmas, about their dead moms. His track record for non-horrifying conversations with either Professor X or Magneto is not so awesome at this point.
