Bad News Travels Fast
Cindy answered a telephone call from her dad.

"Cindy, I don't want you working on superhero things for a while. Especially not visiting the JSA."

"Daddy! Is this about --"

"It's nothing to do with your little girlfriend. It's to do with the fact that the Rayner girl was just murdered. Coming right after what happened to Superman, this is just not happening, Cindy."

The Rayner girl... Oh god. Nic. "Okay Dad I hear what you're saying see you later love you bye!" she mutters as quickly as possible and hangs up.

And calls Avia for a quick favor. And then she's in New York rushing to the brownstone.

"Okay, all right, not now." Cindy mutters in the best Masri she's managed in her autodidactic attempts so far.

Nic's making herself sick. Cindy would normally never, ever, ever do this to someone she cared about, but Nic's making herself sick.

"Nic, please, relax, please?"

"I don't wanna relax!"

And yet her fist stops striking the floor, her shoulders soften, and the molting stops.

"...your Masri is better."

Cindy kneels on the floor. "Thanks. Did they get the bastard?"

"I...I don't know. I wasn't looking. I didn't care. I just saw hole, blood, Steven."

Cindy strokes her hand. "If he's been stopped, good, if not, we'll do something eventually, I swear." A pause, and in Masri again. "I love you." A breath. "I know she did, too."

Nic shook her head again before burying her face against Cindy's shoulder, crying.

And Cindy shuts up and lets her cry.

Which she does for a long, long time, to the point of hyperventilating, but at least the molting has stopped.

And Cindy will just be there.
