It doesn't sound like much, I know, but it comes in handy every once in a while." It also wound her up in a lab for experimentation, but that wasn't anything she was in a rush to share. "There's ... a bunch of us. All very hated because we're weird and different and some of us have blue skin or can ... you know. Blow things up with our minds. Not me, personally, but ..." She shrugged again. "Anyway. If you could keep that under your hat, I'd appreciate it." She winked at him before patting the base of the snowman.
"What's a soldier program? Like ... boot camp or something?" Well, in fairness to her, the only connotation of soldier she was familiar with was military.

I was born up near Boston, and ... wound my way to Westchester a few years ago." Wound her way on a very convoluted path, but wound her way all the same. "It's better now, where I am."
