[ but she's right. he's not even sure he'll ever be able to get himself home, let alone bring someone else along for the ride, and it hurts. it hurts more than he knew he could hurt. if they stay here -- that would be one thing. but what would he do if one day he'll wake up and she'll be gone - and he'll have no way of knowing if it's to some other arena of whatever sick experiment they're on -- or if she's gone? he's never been a hero, he's never had powers, and he's never hated his ordinary-ness more than at this moment. what kind of a man is he, if he can't even save her?
no. he can't give up. so long as they're both still here - there's still hope. and while there's hope - he's going to keep fighting, keep trying, keep working. there has to be a way. if he can't create a portal back to his earth himself, he just has to find the one atroma used. one way or another, he's taking kitty home with him.
but he can't say that, because hope is powerful, but a crushed hope is just as strong and as much as he wants to believe that he won't fail - a part of him isn't wholly on board. so he'll work alone. he'll figure it out. this is his super power, this is what he does, this is what he's good at. he'll figure it out.
it's all he can do not to fall apart in her arms; she's being strong for him again, when she's the one who's hurting. he can't make this about himself, as painful as it is. ]

I'm so sorry, Kitty.
