I’m SHIELD SAR. If I have your mental id, when you’re buried under six floors of collapsed building I can pass on that it’s you and your current state. *her eyes crinkle with her smile* You don’t seem to have any dark, horrible secrets hiding under that calm mask; I wouldn’t worry.

I…see. Luckily, I don’t see myself being buried under a collapsed building – I have my own escape route in sticky situations like those. *huffs in amusement and smiles serenely* I would think the nature of a mask is to hide something that you don’t wish to be found. So…forgive my bluntness, but in that sense, you’d be wrong.

You must be like my sister, then. You two would probably get along like a house afire. *rolls eyes and makes a wry face* Whatever it is you don’t talk about, it’s no more horrible than anyone else’s I’ve ever seen. Everyone wants to think their secrets are the worst, the most awful, the deepest cutting. Truly, *shrugs* pain is pain, and equally awful in all persons.

Mm, I don’t believe I know your sister – what could make you say that? *looks vaguely amused* I never claimed that my past was any worse than the ones of others and I don’t pretend to compare what I’ve been through to the experiences any other person has had. I just know I paid some very high prices for the life I have now and only now in hindsight can I say the pain and loss was…I suppose worth it but I have a hard time accepting that. 

She’s got a similar skill. *eyes flick down, then up* I’m prying a little. I’m sorry. I shouldn’t do that. It’s odd to me that so many … misfits find their way here.

And what kind of skill would that be, Summer? Because to my knowledge, I’m the only person with my skillset and that’s the reason I stick around and SHIELD thinks me usable. *raises an eyebrow at her* Prying is part of the job – it all depends on how and to who that’s applied to. *shrugs* Everyone has their own experiences in the past that make them who they are today and if it happens to be something negative…well. It’s my opinion that agents here are either already damaged or become damaged, but SHIELD is someplace that provides us with support and purpose – to help those who can’t help themselves and to keep them safe. 

*laughs, bitterly* I suppose that’s true for Winter, though not for me. I won’t join SHIELD entirely; I have to have that freedom to turn down assignments and apply my skills in ways I deem fit. Winter manipulates shadows. She can move through them and do other things. *musingly* I’m not sure what her codename is anymore. It used to be Twilight.
