Scene: Downstairs, late at night.  Or possibly early in the morning, depending on how you look at it.  Amelia is fooling around reading and writing; the Dude is playing through Ultimate Alliance, with all the Marvel superheroes, for the second time.

 

The Dude: Right, off to Mephisto’s realm to choose who lives and who dies.  It’s a choice between Jean Grey and Nightcrawler.

 

Amelia: You’re going to try to not kill Nightcrawler, aren’t you?

 

The Dude: Yeah, I killed him last time and broke the X-Men. This time I’m going to try it with Jean.

 

Amelia: (considers this) Well, Jean can take it.

 

The Dude: Exactly! I mean, she’s done this sort of thing before, after all, and it hasn’t had too many ill effects on her.

 

Also, upon hearing Loki for the first time, Amelia’s comment was: “You know, he sounds like the kind of guy who says ‘muahaha’ a lot.”
