There was a lot Gwen was dealing with and it was actually kind of exhausting. Unpredictable glitching and the minor injuries sustained therein, for starters, but that wasn't the worst of it at all.
The worst of it was the memories she'd gotten, of moments she had no right seeing, she's sure of it. And some of them, she didn't even know what to do with. Like the one of Hawk and Demetri and that awful moment when...
Oh, she knew about that. She knew because Hawk told her about that fight and how he'd hurt his friend so badly. But having that memory shoved into her head when she and her boyfriend had both glitched at the same time earlier this evening while cleaning up after dinner.
That wasn't fair at all, universe. Not to Hawk. It felt sort of shitty, and she'd kind of been quiet after. Processing.
She wasn't judging her boyfriend at all for it, and it didn't change how she felt about him. Not negatively, at least. She'd felt how bad he felt after, all that pressure from the other Cobras around him, and that need to fit in, however it happened.
But him not knowing she'd seen it, that felt dishonest. So after he gets out of the shower and crawls into bed, Gwen curls up against him and speaks.
"Do me a favor, and don't hate me. But...I got one of your memories today." She's not to happy about that, Hawk.
