Tabitha couldn't help but rub her eyes a bit as they threatened to well up. She shook her head and spoke to Tally, " I don't think they're gonna let you do that one. With the exception of maybe your mom," she turned and glared at Ronan," none of them give a damn what you want. And you won't be a cast out. You've got family right here with us, even if we are a little dysfunctional." She grinned slightly towards Cap, hoping she wasn't overstepping her role.

Medusa is about to speak, when Crystal interupts. "Perhaps...with time, we will return, and...talk." Medusa scowls, but Crystal refuses to back down.
Ronan nods. "Fine, let us leave this pathetic excuse for a planet." as he turns away from Quicksilver.
Karnak and Gorgon approach Wolverine and Daredevil. "We will take care of Maximus. Return him to us."
Hawkeye whistles. "I think we won."

Tally turns still torn between her Earthborne family and her genetic family. She was actually prepared to go with them to spend some time, even if it meant risking the mists just so she got some form of contact with her mother. She knows full well her father does not view her as a daughter, but her mother, that has potential and hope. Tears start welling in her eyes, "But, but, but...." as she starts into the air but slowly as if not sure of what to do!

" It's okay Tally." Tabitha said softly, offering her her arms to comfort her friend. She knew what Tally was feeling, she had gone through the same thing in the Arctic. That thought hurt, but she tried to keep it to herself. even as she waited for Tally to react, she shot Ronan a look," Don't let the screen door hit you in the butt on the way out."

DD now back beside Wolverine looks at the Inhuman and says, "what do you plan to do with Pie Guy here," he says motioning to Maximus.

"Hornhead has a good question. What's to happen to Maximus?"

Tally in her tears turns to Tabitha and walks into her arms putting her head down and crying.

Ronan huffs as he leaves.
Crystal and Lockjaw come forward. "We'll bring you back to the mansion."
Karnak raises his hand. "He will be taken care of - by his own people. Would you do any less for yours?"
Captain America looks at Wolverine and DD. "He's their problem; they're welcome to have him."

" We'll be all right, and you aren't the only one." Tabitha said, putting on a brave face as she comforted Tally. With Crystal's offer, she had to bite her tongue on her first thought, but the second still slipped out under her breath, " How nice," she mocked," No I don't want anything to do with the child I just discovered I have, but I'll be nice enough to send her away. You're all heart lady, should have been an X-men." She swallowed painfully at the last part as it came out as a cheap shot at her own parents. she purposely turned her head so she couldn't make eye contact with Logan or Crystal.

DD shrugs and pushes Maximus towards Karnak, "he is all yours."
He then says as he looks at Medusa and the other InHumans, "so we done here? Because it feels like we're done. If not, I guess we can go another round," he says as he twirls one half of his billy club.

Tally stays close to Tabitha still very much upset at the entire situation. She finally voices aloud, "What if you came with me to the inhumans land till they are done with me. Then maybe they will let me come back. Maybe then they will get what they want and I will get at least a bit of what I want. Maybe...." She looks at Tabitha with hope and those eyes.

tabitha thought for a moment, then finally answered," I don't think it's a good idea, but if Captain America and your family allow it, I'll go with you." The thought made her a little nervous," But if my big mouth gets me killed, I'm going to come back and haunt you."

Quicksilver looks at Tabitha. "Do not be so quick to judge, Avenger. To be born a mutant is to already have your notion of family changed in unexpected ways. To learn of a new family member that you never knew was yours is not something easily accepted in an instant...even by the swiftest of minds and hearts. Take it from personal experience."
He puts a firm hand on Tally's shoulder. "Give them time. They will come."
Captain America mulls over Tabitha's question. "Freedom of choice is an important thing to me. It is up to you how you use it." He gives a soft smile. "I'll understand if you want to go."
The Avengers gather around Lockjaw and Crystal, who teleports them back to the mansion.

Once in the manor, despite the comfort from Tabitha and words from Pietro, Tally is still too upset to care. As soon as they portal in, still noticing that Crystal wants nothing to do with her she flies away to her room to be alone and shuts the door behind her.

Tab wanted to say something as Tally bolted, but held her tongue on the advice of Quicksilver and Cap. she said lowly," I'll check on her in a bit. She needs some space for now. On the plus side, I don't need to go to medical this time, I must be getting better at this." She didn't acknowledge Crystal as she too headed to her room, pausing outside Tally's long enough to listen for her inside before going to change.
