*ponders the abrupt appearance of anons* Any more of you out there? The night before con starts is boring. Except for flirting with Tony.

Nooo, mostly just perplexed. And I shall endeavor to make a note of your not-a-normal-girl status.
Would I get a straight answer if I asked you the same as I was asked?

Summer laughed. “I’ll keep your secrets, never fear, little sister. You’ve given me so few, it won’t be hard.” She kept stroking, running random locks through her fingers. ”Are you truly Loki’s daughter?”
She shivered slightly. ”Ha technically no, I was adopted,” She said opening her eyes for a moment before closing them again.
“I can’t even think how that works. He is so far from being a good heart … ” Summer mused. “You must have earned a favour from him, or some such.”
She laughed slightly, ”I joined him at first, wanting a purpose in life I join him to help him gain his army, somewhere along the line he became a father to me.”
“I hate all these shadows on your heart, luv,” she whispered. “Does the killing give you a purpose now? Does it make you safe?”

*snorts* In fairness, I’ve only had one actual relationship. You can’t expect me to be a master at recognizing the signs.
I expected you never to know. I had you figured for the type to run in terror if the word ‘love’ was ever mentioned in a serious context.
Still not a normal girl, though.

…Well, that’s how it usually goes. That’s pretty much my definition of ‘normal’ at this point.
I think I might actually be hurt! You think I’m /normal/? *laughing* Where has your attention been, Tony Stark?

The arrogance? The ego the size of a large country? The lack of tact? The inability to figure out how other people work? The fact that I’m just generally obnoxious? I could go on.
Hard to hate the things I share, Tony. Maybe for other people, it’s that simple, but you’re more than those things. *blows him a kiss* Did you think I kept coming back just for the kisses, darlin’? Really?

Well I’ve never really been particularly easy to love.
Love isn’t about easy. *shrugs* You’re funny, interesting, sexy, intelligent, good with your hands … what’s not to love?

“Making holes in peoples’ memories is usually more trouble than it’s worth,” Summer commented dryly. “You’ve gotta find him a reason to live. Or at least a reason not to go chasing those shadows.” She shoved herself up to her feet, watching Lex. “Having been down that far myself, I assure you it is not going to be easy.”
Thinking back to her own past, she added, “Sometimes you have to hammer at them for years before things change. Do … you want my help?”
“I know, but… I could fill his head with, let’s say… ‘fake’ memories, he wouldn’t even know that they didn’t really happen. He’d live his life just like he did before everything went down. I won’t do it if he doesn’t agree, and I don’t like that option either, because I’d probably have to stay away from him… but…” Lex buried her face in her arms for a moment, before looking up to Summer again when she heard her words.
“A reason to live? How? I cannot… I don’t have the time! He said four days!” Lex’s eyes were swimming in tears again. “How would you help me?”
“If he agreed to put it off even once, it’s that much easier to coax him to do it again. But I … ” Summer hesitated. It was, always, one thing to listen to someone’s heart passively, even to go into it and listen. Active alteration … active alteration was risky.
Suicide was final.
” … I can go in, with his knowledge, and lock up his emotions, block out what he’s feeling that’s driving the suicidal impulse, long enough for you to speak sense with him.”

“You have better control of the display,” Summer corrected. “Doesn’t stop you from feeling it, let me assure you. You could have the best poker face in the world, and be bubbling like a fucking volcano inside where nobody but me would know. And it’s not like I have to go fishing around for it; I’d have to work to keep it /out/, in fact.” Brushing at Deva’s hair, she added, “Thank you for apologising. I’m sorry I pushed you so hard.”
She shrugged, closing her eyes and leaning into Summer’s hand. Being petted being a large weakness, ”I told you it’s fine, just don’t tell anyone you have seen me this relaxed, I have a reputation to keep intact.”
Summer laughed. “I’ll keep your secrets, never fear, little sister. You’ve given me so few, it won’t be hard.” She kept stroking, running random locks through her fingers. ”Are you truly Loki’s daughter?”
She shivered slightly. ”Ha technically no, I was adopted,” She said opening her eyes for a moment before closing them again.

gadgeteerphilanthropist replied to your post: So what are your feelings towards Tony anyway?
…I don’t think I saw that coming.
Thought I was just playing with you, hm?
