It still didn’t quite feel real. To just wake up one day and before the sun sets again, you’re told you’re dripping in super powers and, oh, you also have a genocidal super bureau wanting to kill your ass because you’re a threat to humanity. It was a lot to get used to. It was just ironic that he thought he had a mental illness before hearing all this, and now he actually felt the most sane he had in a long time.
As much as he wished he could have all the answers and be some sort of rapid cure-all for the problems of both humans and the Tomorrow People, he was fast getting a wake-up call that there were way bigger fish to fry than just him and his AWOL father. He should have known it was too good to be true that he could just... fit. Fit into all this, fit into something, stop feeling like he was going crazy. He managed the latter, but in doing so, it had opened up a can of giant worms that Anaconda itself could have spawned.
Somewhere along the way, he had stopped being just Stephen Jameson, the weird kid with a mental illness who went to therapy, took anti-psychotic meds, and woke up in his neighbours’ bed. But what had he become in place of that? Well, that was what he was still trying to figure the hell out.
