Scott passed the menu over to Sandy to look at, so he wasn't stuck reading over Scott's shoulder. "I have no idea why you're here." He was content to believe that the JSA had a reason to be involved in this, but. "I haven't been sent out on this kind of mission in years. If they needed an X-man with you, I can think of a dozen who would have been equally or better suited." Based on mutation and powers, not based on tactics.

And when it came down to it tactics, strategy, leadership, and making shitty decisions was what Scott was really good at. He was far from the most powerful among them, when it came down to the nature of his mutation. Add in brain damage leading to that mutation being haywire, and well.

"They wanted me out of the house and moving. This was an excuse." Not self-pitying, just - really bluntly stated. Aware.
