Ali glances over at Gabriel, but seems to be talking more to the baby she's carrying. "People question everything because that's how they get answers, and with answers come understanding."
"Not everything needs to be questioned and knowing the answer rarely changes anything. For example in Jubilee's world the government knows and understands mutants but does that change their fear?"
"If things go unquestioned, power will run unchecked. Power unchecked will be abused." She nuzzles the top of her son's head, looking up at Gabriel again. "And it does, sometimes. It will someday. Change takes time."
"The first time, when he said he was leaving, yeah. But today I was the one shooting him because he was being an idiot." She shrugs, not overly concerned with her seemingly shifting loyalties. "Such is the way of mortal things."

Gabriel looks up for an instant at the child and looks as though she wants to cry.
