9. ...desperately
fifty reasons to touch someone.
God she hated crowds. She's already out the door, absolutely mortified at having had to stand up and sing of all things in front of an audience. Fighting in front of others was one thing— but actively performing her heart out... she just couldn't do it.
The sheer anxiety she felt from all those expectant faces, waiting for... something to come from her was just too much to bear in the heat of the moment. Publicly speaking to a group of people all focused on herself was already difficult enough, and so being forced to do something like that was just...
She needed air.
There was little she actually found herself afraid of, but standing there just then, and running off like she did made her feel... weak. Embarrassed. Pathetic, even. Such an overreaction, over that? Besides, she'd told her no, so why did she have to be so damn insisting on her going up and—
Tug, tug.
Feeling her vest being pulled from behind, Mao turned, unaware of just how intense a face she was making until she saw herself in Sue's eyes.
Her own shut, for a moment; taking a deep breath of air, the woman takes a moment to calm herself. "..."
"I didn't... mean to run. But never make me do something like that again."
A heavy sigh heaves it's way past her lips.
"... I... I'm sorry."

Rolan: You know, if you ever get tired of adventuring, you could always come work at Sorcerous Sundries.
Durge: I don't think retail is the right career for me. My rancid blood desires nothing more than to reap death on this world. I am a vile soul, broken beyond repair.
Rolan: Sounds like an average Tuesday around here... We do have an annual employee picnic, though.
Durge: Does that help to soothe the unyielding rage within?
Rolan: *Sad sigh.* No.

"Hey constantine, who's that?" Someone asks and Connie looks down at Danny, blue eyes staring back at him.
"My coworker."
"He's my dad."
"What?"
"What."
—
Who knew John Constantine would gain a ward, one being such a little mischievous bastard with bright eyes and good heart.
He certainly didn't.
Nor did he expect the stabby Robin to get into a heated argument with his ward, gesturing to his form next to Batman and spit venom.
"But‐ Damian! Look at him! I can fix him!" Danny argues back and Robin, so done with this, rips his mask off and—
Oh.
They have the same face.
Connie looks at Batman, nervous what the reveal will change.
("I don't care if you can 'fix' him, danyal! Return to Father, to me!")
Batman stares back.
("Connie is dad shaped! I chose him myself, damian! Leave me and my choice alone!")
The day will only get longer, it seems.
