Nothing Hurts Like Love
Dec. 23rd, 2011 10:02 pmIt was understandable, Hanna supposed, as she walked home.
After all, she was both more and less than an average human; stronger and faster, more capable... But also less emotional. It made sense, logically, that Sasha would think she seemed distant and odd and unsuitable as a girlfriend.
Understandable... But disappointing.
Yes, disappointing. That had to be what was making her chest clench more and more with every step she took away from Sasha. Disappointment that was making tears gather in her eyes and causing her shoulders to slump in something that, to an outsider, might look very much like defeat.
It was unreasonable that it should be any more. She ought to think of it as Megamind would; an experiment attempted, a negative outcome gained, evidence that this venture ends in failure and should, in future, be left well alone. Hanna had more than enough with her 'fathers' and her studies and all the interesting things she was exposed to.
Reasoning, however, didn't stop what she called disappointment growing ever stronger, so that when she finally arrived back at Evil Lair, she was cried out and exhausted.
