Seth wants to become a hero. He has the power for it, though maybe a bit too much for some. He has the know how, can't help but run off to watch when the sirens go off. He's got the skill, he'd better anyway. Can't quite get the little voices in his head to give him a break. But... But he can't show those powers, not in full. Because those voices, the reason he even has powers in the first place, still trust him too much to undo all that they both hoped to achieve. To atone for.  For destroying lives inumerable. In the unwitting spread of those powers, devastating and hungry. In the fires that ensued. The war that was waged to contain what his town became. In spilling the blood of too many of this world's greatest not to leave scars. Not to leave Seth... holding the bag. But he's ready. He's prepared. He's built a suit to stave off their scrutiny and resolved... no... promised to be a hero no matter what it took. No matter how much it hurt. They will support him, and he will heal those scars. So that they both can live to atone for what they have done. Though his powers may not see it that way.
