Queen Bee
Sydney stared as her own reflection in the full length mirror. Gray skin, green hair, weird yellow eyes, wings, three-toed feet, overly jointed fingers, wings, tiny antenna... And there was more there too, she could tell, things waiting for her to figure out. Little trace of who she had been, physically, remained.

She wondered if she was even technically human anymore.

But for the moment, she could forgive it all.

Because she was walking. Without mechanical assistance of any kind.

	Things had settled down somewhat since they got back, but Anya was still worried about Sydney. So she went to check on her. She knocked lightly on Syd's door. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Sydney broke from her fixation at the sound of the knock. "Come on in. It's unlocked." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Anya opened the door and poked her head in. "Hey. I just wanted to see how you're doing." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Surprisingly well," Sydney admitted. "I mean... I feel like I should be panicking, only... I'm not." She considered her reflection again. "It's not that bad, really." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"That's good to hear." Anya opened the door wider and stepped into the doorway. "It's definitely different and a unique look. It works though. You're moving around quite well." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It's... yeah," Sydney admitted. "No pain, no numbness... nothing." She fluttered her wings. "Though I am in serious need of more low-backed shirts." She considered. "Should I be worried I'm not more worried about this?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"That's good." Anya smiled. "Shopping for clothes is not a problem. I happen to be an expert." Anya shrugged. "I don't think so. Everyone handles things in different ways. You just happen to be one of those that handles things well." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Maybe. Or it hasn't sunk in yet," Sydney replied. Or, of course, there was the more horrifying possibility that the changes had been more than physical. "...Just how badly did we piss off SHIELD?" she asked. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Point," Anya conceded. "Though if you find yourself needed to talk to a professional about this I can recommend someone. He helped me through the Lady Mandarin stuff."

Anya shrugged. "I think it's in the superhero contract to piss off SHIELD at some point. Double if you're a Stark. Let's just say I got a few very angry voicemails." There had been the one from her mother asking what happened, but Mom seemed more amused than anything.

	"Yeah, well... thanks," Sydney replied. She couldn't remember the last time anyone had really gone to bat for her that way. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Don't mention it. United we stand, divided we cause more chaos, or something like that." Anya grinned. (Reply to this)(Parent)
