"Huh? You're like a kid tochuckle "Don't touch that game of yours until we're cruisin' unless ya wanna see it tuain"

When Aldrich saw Clint lecture Fisk, he could tell that once, Clint had been a father According to Diahter to the Dark Six

It made Aldrich that er of losing her He would have sht now, he was not in the mood

Perhaps it was because Aldrich was linked to Chrysa, but he felt now more so than ever a deep sense of uncertainty

Uncertainty about the future About the world that was so inally envisioned At the end of the day, he was still new to this power and the responsibilities and risks it carried

No matter how much he prepared himself, there would always be risk

Valera sensed Aldrich's thoughts, the worry that plagued him, the loneliness and fear he felt reflected back at him from Chrysa She reached out and held Aldrich's hand

Aldrich saw that look in her eyes and it was then that he felt close to her Oddly, he had never felt like this during the ether
