𝗶𝗻 𝘄𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗵 ━ a woman, always painted
as the villain, tries her hardest to
show a cruel world her good intention...
THERE WAS A THEORY IN QUANTUM PHYSICS THAT TIME IS IMMUTABLE. IT'S LIKE A RIVER. YOU CAN THROW A PEBBLE INTO IT AND CREATE A RIPPLE, BUT THE currant always corrects itself. No matter what you do, the river just keeps flowing in the same direction. Time is inevitable, actions long predestined and written in the stars will always prevail to happen.
Maggie wonders if it's true. If she was always meant to suffer ━to fall in love with a man who will always make himself a villain, even if his reasons had once been of good nature. If Charles was always meant to become paralysed, in a physical and even in a emotional sense. If Raven was always meant to embrace the hatred that was thrown her way, and bend it until she became what they feared.
Maggie wonders if all this, all these changes they tried to make in the world, even matter at all. If there is truly any hope for them. For mutant kind and humankind.
She can't shake the feeling of dread that is twisted in her heart, but for now, she tries to forget. Forget that maybe their fate is already sealed to this blood wrenching war. Forget that humankind and mutantkind will always mistrust one another. Forget that the world thinks her a villain. Forget she will always be alone even if she is surrounded by people.
She focuses on other things instead. On hope and promises. She focuses on Henry Spectre ━on his carefree human smile and the way he plays with the mutant children at their safehouse. How he makes sure they feel accepted and loved. She thinks about Peter and how he doesn't think his mutation is a curse ━how he embraces it so fully. She thinks about Jubilee and the promises she made to the girl. To all the unspoken promises she made to all the children that passed through her house.
Maybe war is inevitable, maybe it doesn't matter. But she has to try.
Maggie stands nervously, between Hank and Logan, the events of earlier rushing through her head like a tidal wave. Charles' first time using Cerebro, the explosion and finally his success with locating Raven.
Just because someone stumbles, loses their way, doesn't mean they're lost forever.
She feels like his words ring true. Maggie likes to think she turned herself around pretty well after everything that led up to their fight at Cuba. She had found a bit of closure during it. And in turn was able to open herself in a different way. To be a person she had needed when she was younger.
