Any other follow-ups derail at the request: There's a glitch in his systems, and he stills. In all his time here, Fitz has avoided researching or analysing their powers. The last time he'd chipped in on the network, Daisy had swiftly reminded him how he'd forfeited his right to toy with that particular puzzle. A lifetime of expertise in the area, picking apart inhuman abilities and their carriers means his knowledge is tainted. Shouldn't be talking about his old friend, shouldn't be participating in any studies.

Only if Fitz means to make up for how he knows these things, he ought to apply the knowledge to help others, right? His fingers dig into the crooks of his elbows. Control can sometimes be an illusion, and he's only just wrested it back — risky, to put himself in the role of the scientist again. He might have said no to someone else. Hell, he has before, directing them to Daisy instead. ]
