He says it at about the same time Isaac does, but he puts a cap on it quickly, forcing himself to go quiet. Either out of respect to Peter or an effort to look more in control - possibly both. That doesn't mean there's any hiding the shock on his face and the way Scott jumps back slightly and grabs Isaac by the arm when Peter's eyes change (except they don't change; they're right there, on the ground, and this is-)
The urge to rush forward and do something to help hits quickly, but Scott holds his ground. Let him come to them. That was the only rule. And by the time a snout starts fighting its way free of Peter's mouth, there's the numbing realization that there's absolutely nothing they could do to stop this even if they tried.
Scott doesn't look away. Not for a surprisingly long time, anyway, but after a few seconds that feel more like hours he finally turns away entirely, expression pained; in sympathy, of course, but also probably because he's feeling sick to his stomach.
my dreams come true also sorry about the icon
