"Well I like helping people. I don't mind putting what I can do to good use, really. I figure I can help people if I work with others."
That takes her a moment. "Mom went into hysterics. She can be a bit of a drama queen.. Dad handled it much better. He just recommended I don't out myself. It's still dangerous to be out as a mutant.... I used to be okay at school if I weren't a senior, a Sterling, and well-liked I'd be in trouble. A few girls have tried to give me trouble but.... It's Alpha-Female crap."
She sighs a touch. "Mom was nit-picking over the Avengers thing. She doesn't believe I'm serious about it and that I'm doing it for attention from her which isn't the case. I told her her ego had gotten pretty big if she thought it was all about her. I mean seriously. I'd never do this for her."
