Susan looks over his shoulder at his pathetic wings, giving them another flap before turning back with a huff. If only he'd gotten something cooler, he'd thought wings were cool enough but they couldn't even fly. At least his eyes looked like his cat's now, that was pretty cool.
He nods vaguely at Strange's agreement to stopping, but then the man continues with a question about how he's been and it only makes him look very interested in his feet while he tries to think of an answer to that. Normally answers are easy, but when it's about how he feels or how he's been... That's another story. It would be easy if he really knew exactly how he'd been, but that wasn't the case, now, and an honest answer is nearly impossible to give. He knew he was mad, mostly at the Ringmaster, mad about being attacked when he'd thought they were safe, mad that his brother was taken from him (even if he was still there), mad that he wasn't even able to defeat the Ringmaster to try and solve this. He couldn't help but blame himself though, too, for getting himself and Lauren trapped here in a contract...
And if that hadn't been bad enough... Now he didn't have his magic. Not that he would admit it if he could help it, even to himself, but it was still true. How she could just take it away that easily he had no idea, but he felt empty without it and it was an uncomfortable and unfamiliar feeling.
In the end he only gives a little shrug and a small smile.
"I'm okay. Especially now that we have a lake, I missed the stream we had in our forest."
