Alex isn't exactly a doctor, but he's listened to his dad discuss his own treatment enough that he knows what to avoid and what's okay. He's pretty sure he can manage a day here or however long it takes for him to get back home. Fiddling with his scarf, he smiles a little at Connor.

"I noticed, yeah. It's so weird I didn't think they were really moving, but I guess what's weird back home is normal here." He snorts, rolling his eyes. "No, I'm the sidekick. The younger person is always the sidekick in superhero movies. That's just how it works." Still, he smile gets a little bigger, and he keeps close to Connor as they walk, careful not to get lost.

He sighs, nodding. "Sort of. My dad's not sure what it is, but I get chronic migraines, a lot of little headaches, and I have sleep problems. Caffeine makes all of it worse, and I'm doing better the more vitamins I have. But it's not anything specific enough to be a condition with a name. Or if it is, we haven't figured it out yet."
