@UNEARTHD ★ 'ANOTHER LONG TRIP'? i can tell, you got a whole beard going on, you know. it looks nice on you, actually, you show mom yet? [ara looks up at her father, a shiteating grin on her face. she's trying to make a joke out of this situation, she really is, but there's a firm emphasis on the /try/. it's tough standing here, in front of nolan-- having to sit across from him whenever she has to eat dinner with their family, it's all so tough to her, having to act like she /doesn't/ know he killed the guardians of the globe--- having to act like she /doesn't/ know why he's really on earth. but perhaps she /shouldn't/ feel like this, right? she's hated the world for too long, she's hated having to save the same lois-lane-wannabe civilians every week for /years/, she's hated it all. maybe she should be grateful for this opportunity her father's given her, to take the life she gives to all these people, to finally have a purpose-- a destiny. after all, it's rather rude to not appreciate a parent's gifts, right?]
