Re: Mayflowers: Max & Sharon
"Tired of being in one place? Or tired of being in this one place?" Max asked, her burger gone, and her beer finished, and she just bounced the baby on her hip. Lia fisted a french fry happily, and she talked baby nonsense to the dog, and Max chuckled. The kids have dogs at home. Two of them, and I think they miss them." Max was not getting a dog. Amanda didn't want one, thank god, but Gus asked after his every single night. He asked after the dog almost as often as he asked after his parents, and Max hoped the poor kid could go home soon.
She sighed, and she set the baby in her Pack'N Play, and she leaned back against the register's counter as she looked at the woman in the space with her. "Things have changed a lot in the past year, Carter. The world doesn't feel the same as it did when I first got here. Maybe it's time to change with it."
Adapting wasn't Max's strong suit, but it felt like change was in the air, and she'd bought the flower shop as a result. These Avengers were different men than the ones she'd met before, and they were of a different ilk - even Max could see that, and she was looking from a long ways off.
