Maria Hill is the Assistant Director of SHIELD, a high-flying member of a high-flying covert agency, whose friends and colleagues could, and often
did take off, into flight. But while most of them come from similar, if exceptional, military backgrounds, not all of them have the same story.
This story is about Maria Hill, her history, and the price you have to pay for finding acceptance, when you belong to a high-flying, high-risk
super secret organisation like SHIELD.
Tony Stark's not wrong, entirely. You do have to be a certain type of messed up, to find a home in SHIELD, or any similar intelligence agency.
Normal people did not thrive in places where sex-change forms were a normal thing and re-writing Wills was a monthly business. Maria Hill
always thought she was the exception. She always thought she was pretty normal, compared to the rest of the lot. She wasn't. But while
Stark wasn't wrong, he wasn't exactly right, either. SHIELD is like the ocean; what it taketh away, it often giveth back, with upgrades. - screencaps from Cinema Squid and cobiesmuldersfan.com.
