“ I’m sorry to have missed it. I’ve been very busy, as I’m sure you’ve heard. ”
THE JOKE WENT STRAIGHT OVER THE Queen’s head. Terran humour was something she was still getting used to, even with Johnny around. Still, Medusa smiled, shuffling in her uncomfortable seat to take a sip of her tea. While they had shared quite close quarters, Medusa couldn’t exactly say with certainty that she knew Darla well. Scott had taken quite the shining to her & she to him, deny it as they might, Medusa knew a thing or two about body language.
She moved her cup to her lips again, eyebrow raising quizzically.
Oh boy. There goes THAT can of worms.
“ ----Pssh, who cares? He’s Scott. Who ever actually knows? He has his daughter back and they’re off having superhero adventures together. I’m happy for him. He was my bodyguard for a little, but then I kind of sort of maybe got him arrested so... THAT fell flat. Among other things. ”
Okay, so maybe she’s not 100% over it, but no one said she had to be. Seriously, who the hell leaves his apartment in NEW YORK CITY to travel across the country to FLORIDA without a word to ANYONE???
Sure, she still cares about him and maybe even wishes him all the happiness in the world because if the years spent with him weren’t any indication he needed it than what was? But seriously--even Tony Stark is a little scorned. She’s allowed to be too.
