She watched quietly as Bo addressed the ghost. It was not often she’d had the chance to observe the girl utilising her gift, and she gave an almost imperceptible nod of approval as the hovering book made no attempts to follow the flight path of the one which resided in Melinda’s hands. Whatever the other agents may say about her regarding her fighting ability, this was why Melinda was always so quick to shut them down. The girl was talented, able to do something no one else could.
Her lips twitched slightly at Bo’s reference to the ‘agent May thing’, the term amusing her a little. The smile never completely manifested though, wiped away before it had the chance to fully appear and replaced instead with the steely expression in question. Though she could not see the ghost, it was not hard to know where to direct her gaze; the nervous glances Bo kept darting across the room were a pretty good indication.
It felt strange to stare in such a way at seemingly nothing, even if she knew that it wasn’t nothing, and she held the look for only a few moments before she turned back to Bo, the expression fading away. “What’s up with this one?”
something akin to amazement alights over her features; the second may turns her chilling gaze towards the spirit ( and it hadn’t even occurred to bo that the agent herself couldn’t see the spectre ) , the girl retreats, eyes wide and head bowed the very picture of oh, shit.
bo isn’t one to gloat, yet there’s a modicum of satisfaction in the quirk of her lips as she addresses her ghostly informant. ❝ look, this is SERIOUS, okay? we need that information. ❞ gaze flickers pointedly to may, lips pressing into a thin line or we’ll all get in trouble. the air cools for a moment, the result of an INDIGNANT huff from the ghost-girl ( who isn’t even breathing, technically ) . ❝ i can’t let you stay here if you don’t help out. ❞
and with her temper cooled, that veiled threat ( or, as close to a threat as bo can ever come ) seems enough to spur the spirit to action. though her presence still elicits an uneasiness in bo, she can sympathize; the girl was LONELY. though the spirit cuts a mean glare in may’s direction, she responds still with a small if reluctant nod, and drifts through the wall, presumably to find what SHIELD needs to know.
❝ she’s uh, her parents are very rich. and she was very spoiled. ❞ a small shrug, sheepish expression on her face as she answers may. ❝ before she died ❞ not the most dignified death, either, and certainly not unexpected, considering such a lifestyle. ❝ she hung around some bad people...who might have interesting information. ❞ tone drops to something almost mournful. ❝ her parents...it felt like they doted on her. like really, really LOVED her. and she misses them. and people in general, i think. ❞
