Re: Osborn Estate: Jason/Gwen/Bruce + Harry
Gwen wanted to stay in that hug for as long as feasibly possible, excluding required breaks for functional life necessities, like eating and maybe sleeping. But she could still picture Harry's expression, and Emily's screams echoed all the way up the stairs, and she knew she wasn't going to leave.
She took a step back, and then she jumped off the couch on her own. "I won't be leaving," she told Jason. "I'm not a prisoner here. I can come and go whenever I want. I can meet you for lunch tomorrow if it makes you feel better, but you need to go." She turned to Doctor Banner, who was being absolutely logical in the face of everything that had happened; it was kind of sweet. "I think they want to understand what happened, and I think they want to figure out a way to use it to their advantage. Curing it would monetize this disaster, and it would help Mr. Osborn's public image. Either way, no one can hurt me. Didn't we just see that? If I get scared, things go crazy. I'm safe here. I can't go."
She nudged at him. "But you need to, sir. And you need to make Jason go too," she said quietly, because she knew Jason wouldn't go easily. "Please test that thing for me?"
