Author’s Notes: Many thanks to
second_batgirl for beta and hand-holding, and to
likeadeuce and
mississippienne for encouragement and feedback along the way. Title and section headers are from Bruce Springsteen’s “Growin’ Up.” Also, I haven’t taken a real science class since high school, so forgive me if my scientific mumbo-jumbo is a little less than plausible. It’s comic books, right?
