MABEL
Mabel very rarely said anything funny, and deigned to furrow and pinch her features together in a distinct frown as the round of laughter pierced through. She’d meant what she said, and couldn’t fathom why it had orchestrated chuckles and mirth. Did he not think she was capable?
Because she was. Or, would be, given enough time and training. Given enough weapons and opportunities. Would take down her sister’s killer. Would make them pay.

And when the opportunity came, then she’d strike – to and through the heart.
She continued to scrutinize him in her queenly pose, however, on the finishing statements. Because she hadn’t thought about thereafter. “Oh.” She leaned back a little, cocking her head, arms folding over her chest. “I could just take more of them out.” Them – enemies, adversaries, those who didn’t follow the call of the Voice.
