Re: quicklog: max/jack
[Max didn't particularly like the Helen hallucination. She never had, and she wasn't going to start today. Truth was, she just wanted all the hallucinations to go away. Corvus, the kid, Wren, and even Evie, who talked about her dead ex like he was alive and abandoned in a door somewhere; she wanted it all to stop. She was sure therapy would help, but with the Valentine's wishes going around like measles in California, there wasn't time for much of anything.
He asked his question about why Sharon would fake her death, and she couldn't help but lift one narrow shoulder.] She's involved in a mess. She wanted to do it at the shop, but I can't risk that. It's my income, and with all three kids living there. [She left it there, because he would understand; Max knew Corvus would do anything for any of those kids. He would understand why putting them in danger was simply not an option.]
I shouldn't be involved either. Not with Brandon out of the picture and Wren and Luke crazy, but Sharon helped me get out of SHIELD when I wanted out, and I owe her. [She paid her debts.] HYDRA is after her. Do you know what they are?
[If there was one thing that Max had disliked from GO in this door, it was SHIELD. The place was dirty, corrupt, and she'd felt worse working for them than she had the government back home; that was saying something.
She turned, back to the window and hips against the sill as she looked at the man with the demons on his back.] She wants to get executed here. The rest still sounds like it's in flux. Either way, it brings trouble here. So, if you're uncomfortable, tell me.
