Re: Marvel: Max & Ella
[Max still killed everything green that she touched, but she didn't handle being unchallenged well, and this was a challenge. It was a challenge and it was a fuck you at the childhood that had left so much emotional scar tissue in its wake. It was a deliberate choice, not something easy. She wasn't good with people either, crowds, employees that hadn't been through boot camp and knew the appeal of barked orders. It was a hard choice, and it was deliberate.]
You're welcome. [Her return grin was genuine too.]
McKendrick showed back up recently. Corvus never left. Brandon's here, though that's touchy. [She looked toward Amanda, and she hated the secrets, but they were necessary.] Luke and Wren are still around. Lin's here. [Fond.] So's his inebriated boyfriend, but you can't win every round. [She tipped her head.] Accounting? Did you give up the singing?
[She shrugged.] Sometimes interesting isn't what you expect it to be, kid.
