::Pietro nodded a single time. The entire mansion was aware of his speed, for the obvious reasons that it was a mutant school and that he used them often for both security and more mundane tasks. Uncle had raised him and helped him train. As for the minor construction he had done, or the tasks in Europe...it became evident when he did his work, but generally, when it was a single task at hand, they did not care about the how, why, and wherefore.:: "Yes."

"Lucky you," Morph said, nodding slowly. "Wish I had that luxury." The only people who were ever, ever comfortable knowing about his mutation were mutants.

::Pietro could easily understand why others would be less trusting of a shapeshifting than they were of more practical, less potentially treacherous powers. He was labor; Kevin was...another matter entirely, had the potential to be an impostor. It wasn't a necessarily fair assessment, but it was true, understandable in some ways. On the other hand, it was an impressive ability, admirable.:: "Luck is relative."

Morph threw a quick glance around and morphed back into himself; he was getting tired of listening to a strange voice coming out of his throat with no purpose.
"In that case, everything is," he said, looking at Pietro.

::Pietro was not particularly surprised to see Kevin morph into the form he had met him in, both times prior; he had assumed that was his true form, and it would appear he was correct. With the other man's words, he would tend to agree, in all matters but morality. he had his strong code of honor, and to him, all such matters were black and white. With all else, his own perspective taught it was relative.:: "Most everything is."

What observations Kevin had had a chance to make during the first chat with Pietro, seemed to have been confirmed here - Pietro was very careful in what he said, even though he replied momentarily, it seemed he was still able to take his time to consider his answer well. Morph thought that, if he ever decided to get more serious with training his spying abilities, and if he had a chance of running into Pietro every now and then, the man could very well prove to be an excellent practice target. Just to get some information out of him could be a challenge. Maybe it was a bad idea to reveal his own identity that early in the conversation, after all, Kevin thought.
"Can I ask what your powers are?" he asked. He had some guesses, but nothing concrete.

::Pietro did not see his powers as something to be hidden, particularly not since he knew Kevin's abilities, or the category, if not the complete limitations. At the tavern the last time, he had been asked to demonstrate, and he had not been up to boasting, not so soon after his collapse. He had recovered from that. As such, he felt reciprocity was warranted.:: "Speed."

Morph chuckled. "That's a cool one. I would even trade if I could. For a few days."

::Pietro knew the practical side of his abilities and did not know the other man well enough to launch into a diatribe about the drawbacks. Instead, he focused the discussion on Kevin.:: "Do you dislike your own?"

"No," Kevin grinned. "I just... enjoy trying things on."

::With the other man's abilities in mind, that statement had more than one meaning. Pietro nodded slightly.:: "I don't doubt that."

Kevin glanced at his watch and stood up; his break seemed to be over. "Well, I guess I better go back to work," he said. "... See you around?"

::Pietro straightened from where he had begun to lean, inclining his head. This was the third time they had met unintentionally. Pietro believed in coincidence, but at this point, they seemed inclined to meet at random intervals.:: "I'm sure you will."

"Maybe," Morph smirked. He morphed into another random person, looking just nice enough to be able to do his job, and left the bench, returning to his car.

::Pietro watched as Kevin took another form and left. He reflected a moment on the meaning of it all, in light of the dangers they faced, and then he continued down the street in the opposite direction.::
