"This will absolutely be my new symbol." It won't. That's a lie, and not a secret.
It's worth pausing right here in the narration to note an interesting perception of what secrets are. Deadpool seems to be conflating "secret" with "truth". Ruminate on what that means for a moment. To this man, the truth must be secret. How fucked up is that?
"You know, I've always secretly loved suits." A pause. "WAIT NO, NOT A SECRET. I was quite open about loving my suits." He fidgets with the mask. It's still firmly attached. Good, good. Even if that was a secret, it apparently wasn't juicy enough to cost him his new face.
He pauses in his own self absorption to notice that Jen isn't quite as disgusted with him as she usually is. Normally, this would be his dream come true. He's always had the biggest crush on Jen, even if it's only been referenced once in the very very beginning of Gerry Duggan's run. Why did that never come to fruition as a plot point? He'd never know. But...she seemed not herself. And the crush was definitely not something he'd go near referencing because something told him it was just the kind of secret the mask wanted to come off and leave him with exactly the face someone like Jen would never, ever want.
A secret worth sharing to break the mask's power that he didn't want to break. Ironic.
"You okay, Jolly G? You seem like you've been sipping the kool-aid around here. Did you try to smash a Guardian too? Whatever they hit you with for trying that is good stuff. It made me dance like Zemo." It didn't make him dance like Zemo. He did that all on his own.
