Of all the ways this conversation could have gone, Eddie hadn't been expecting Volt to say anything remotely like that.
For a few moments, all he could do was stare and try not to let his mouth hang open like an idiot. When at last he found some words, he still nearly stammered them when he gave them voice. "That doesn't bother you?"
Curious, Volt tilted his head. "What?"
"The idea of…" Eddie hesitated, grimacing. "Of answering to me?"
As if to contradict his sour expression, Volt smiled sweetly. "Why would it?" he asked, "You have the more experience between us. I think you've earned such deference, don't you?"
