( And that is the only explanation she has for those mutant giant pizzas. Unless they are, in fact, mutant pizzas. That does not seem impossible in a world with actual superheroes. Radiation seems a common enough origin story. )
I'm sorry.
( She cannot be here. She cannot be around— a person. Speaking. Small talk and conversation. It doesn't feel safe, and it doesn't feel right, but if MK were entirely honest with herself she has never felt comfortable and safe around people save for Niki. Everything that has happened has simply taken her from a default of seven on the discomfort scale right up to an eleven. I am sorry, I need more time to adjust, this is simply part of how I work, enjoy your pizza. That is what she should say. Something like that. Instead she just stands, silent, trips over the first sound of a word and tugs at her hood before turning and setting off at an awkward, fast walk, head ducked down. )
