Re: RAGE

I ran off. Needed space to think. As nice as the team is, I get the looks, the questions. Got tired of it. So I ran, and didn't tell anyone where I went.

It felt like it was better that way, anyway, you know? I could calm down, no one had to look at me like some broken doll on a shelf in need of pity. Then I could come back and refocus on what was more important. I could be useful, like I should be. Not some sob story. Seemed like the best thing to do.

Hydra found out. Yelled at me. Broke my arm.

I... wouldn't be surprised if she cried that whole day.

It's... hard to see how we're dismissing the people we love until it's too late. We're telling them we can't trust them. It's one thing to do that to strangers, sure. But...

If we can tell someone "I love you", but can't tell them "I'm afraid", then maybe we have our priorities backwards.
