I don\u2019t know what\u2019s different here. Actually I know nearly nothing about you either even though I have stayed here for a few days already. You don\u2019t have to give a life story or anything but I would like to get to know you.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;Mine\u2019s probably a more simple story than most anyway,&#8221; she confesses. Comparatively, her life\u2019s been quite easy. &#8220;The first thing you should know is that I\u2019m an empath. I was born that way. I\u2019m not like, oh, Professor X, but neither am I just weak. There\u2019s more to it \u2014 it\u2019s not so simple as that, but it\u2019s \u2014 &#8221; She twists a hand in the air, failing at words. &#8220;I was born in the south, and I came up here after 9\/11, to help. I do work with SHIELD, as a search-and-rescue contractor. Um \u2026 what else? I\u2019ve a twin sister, though we don\u2019t look alike.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Clint listens attentively and lifts his brow in surprise when learning about you being an empath. You working with SHIELD does not surprise him as he heard that before and he does not have anything against it either. He stays quiet until you\u2019re done. \u201cWell it\u2019s nice get to know you Summer. You\u2019re the first empath I\u2019ve met, hopefully I don\u2019t give you trouble. Sometimes I might be hard to be around with for someone with your ability I guess.\u201d he warns you in friendly manner knowing that he\u2019s not the most stable person.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>She gives him a sceptical look. &#8220;Sweetheart, I live with Tony Stark and Loki, who are in love with me and each other. You are not going to be a problem.&#8221; Summer shrugs. &#8220;So that&#8217;s me. There&#8217;s just not much to me.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>nestinghawk: iamthefirechild: nestinghawk: iamthefirechild: &#8220;Oh yeah? Were there specifics?
