Manny's Psych Eval.
Manny sat in the massive chair, nervously twiddling his thumbs, taking frequent glances at the door. He took several breaths in an ateempt to settle his nerves, but it wasn't really helping.

	"None taken, it's understandable. All the moreso considering you don't exactly need a case of Great Man's Son Syndrome to feel like you're living in your father's shadow a bit. No offense meant there, either." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	soft_inside 2012-11-26 02:06 am UTC (link)

	nextgen_parent 2012-11-26 02:28 am UTC (link)
	Leonard listens and nods. "Have your views on your parents' history changed any since hten?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	soft_inside 2012-11-26 02:33 am UTC (link)
	"Not really," Manny answered. Even when they were badguys they weren't really that..bad. I like to think of them as I've known them." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Well, it beats the celebrity bodyguard gig, definitely. I mean I'm actually helping people, and getting paid at the same time. On the other hand..there are things happening outside my comfort zone," Manny admitted. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nextgen_parent 2012-11-26 08:48 pm UTC (link)
	"Such as?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	soft_inside 2012-11-26 09:18 pm UTC (link)
	"Well.." Manny rubs the back of his head. "um..it can get a little.. unique sometimes. I mean..you've met some of my teammates. No offense to them, I like them a lot, it's just..different." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nextgen_parent 2012-11-27 08:40 am UTC (link)
	"I'm not offended on their behalf, or judging them personally by what you say, let's just get that clear. How well do you feel that you're adjusting to the weirdness?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	soft_inside 2012-11-27 10:40 am UTC (link)
	"Okay..it's had it's ups and downs. Jack's a pain in the culo..but I get why. Still not sure what to make of Adrienne. Martin's like the kid brother I never had..but his magic makes me uneasy..I'm a simple man, Doctor, and magic is far from simple in my mind." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nextgen_parent 2012-11-27 10:59 am UTC (link)
	"I can understand that. Magic types are almost inherently complicated to those of us who don't have the knack. What about the ladies?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	soft_inside 2012-11-27 12:25 pm UTC (link)
	"Anya's my boss. She has her..eccentricities, but who the heck doesn't? Kelly's..let's be honest, crazy, but she's fun to hang around with. Bea..Bea brought me into the Thunderbolts," Manny explained. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nextgen_parent 2012-11-27 12:29 pm UTC (link)

	soft_inside 2012-11-27 12:40 pm UTC (link)
	"Oh, well.." Manny gives a few light scrapes with his claws against his plating. "Bea's kind of the second-in-command here. Smart, tough..pretty..and a nice person." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nextgen_parent 2012-11-27 12:42 pm UTC (link)

	soft_inside 2012-11-27 12:49 pm UTC (link)
	"Huh? Oh, no, no sir." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nextgen_parent 2012-11-27 01:55 pm UTC (link)
	"You're reasonably comfortable and on top of things when it comes to pretty people?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	soft_inside 2012-11-27 02:23 pm UTC (link)
	And Manny will just blanch and gape for a moment before partially regaining his bearings. "N-no..just..I'm not exactly the kind of guy most women would want to settle down with." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nextgen_parent 2012-11-27 03:12 pm UTC (link)
	"Oh? Maintained pretty steady work most of your adult life, straightforward personality, but polite to authority figures. Aside from the physical issues, you seem like the Take Home To Mother Type." Pause. "Granted, Mrs. Dayspring isn't most mothers, but the general point stands." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	soft_inside 2012-11-27 03:16 pm UTC (link)
	Manny seemed a little dumbfounded by how much he really had going for him. Still.. "Gracias sir, but those 'physical issues' are pretty significant." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nextgen_parent 2012-11-27 03:18 pm UTC (link)
	"That they are," Leonard admits. "How do you feel about that?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	soft_inside 2012-11-27 03:21 pm UTC (link)
	"My body has given me a lot: money, fame, an opportunity to travel, and to help people, but," he looks at his hands. Even sheathed his claws stuck far out. "it's been depressing sometimes too." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nextgen_parent 2012-11-27 03:24 pm UTC (link)
	Leonard just listens and nods. "Do you find yourself thinking about that a lot, or do you try to ignore it?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	soft_inside 2012-11-27 03:25 pm UTC (link)
	"I try not to, but it creeps in there more often than I'd like," Manny confesses. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nextgen_parent 2012-11-27 03:34 pm UTC (link)
	"How much do you think those concerns affect your everyday life?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	soft_inside 2012-11-27 03:35 pm UTC (link)
	"Not much, really. I mean I have a job to do, can't let little things keep me from doing it." (Reply to this)(Parent)
