I&#8217;m not like, oh, Professor X, but neither am I just weak. There&#8217;s more to it &#8212; it&#8217;s not so simple as that, but it&#8217;s &#8212; &#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 &#8230; what else? I&#8217;ve a twin sister, though we don&#8217;t look alike.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>nestinghawk: iamthefirechild: nestinghawk: iamthefirechild: &#8220;Oh yeah?
