Most of my heroines can't boast a song named for them-except Candy Girl, who I partially named after the Four Seasons hit.

I have to admit, being avenged sounds really, really cool.

...

Mind you, I'd rather not be in that position to begin with seeing as I'd have to be in dire peril or not around anymore to be avenged (as Tony Stark mentioned, the avenging happens after the fact), but even so...

I imagine it's like this:

Falling in battle defending your family: duty done, legacy secured, A+

Falling in battle defending your family AND they go back and avenge you: the only possible superior outcome, I mean, this is epic poetry stuff, the kind of thing that starts history-shaping wars. *That's* love, right?

<3 I'm so proud of them for NOT taking an additional six months to figure it out this time. Thanks, Baby Sparky.

I mean, if Marissa was still in denial at that point then I REALLY would have believed something was wrong with her.

I would be 100% fine with reading all the happy/semi-happy/bat guano crazy Baz and Marissa stories across all the multiverses.

At this rate, the first thing I actually publish will be an anthology of Baz and Marissa across the multiverse. 😂 but it’s fun!
