[They wouldn't be interested in their son gaining powers? That's...such a weird concept for Elliot to grasp, and for a moment there's clear confusion his face as he tries to wrap his brain around it. Sure, his relationship with his aunt and uncle was strained and distant, but what he remembered of his own parents was completely different. They took a full-hearted interest in everything Elliot did, just like his brother. Part of him just figured that's simply what parents are like. You know, crazy levels of doting.
But he won't press. Not when there's pancakes to eat. Which he'll start doing the same- dang they are]
Haha, yeah they are! And really cute! You did a great job.
