"My parents were evil supervillains, too," she said, matter-of-fact but in a resigned way. She tried to pretend, usually, that it didn't bother her, but she did miss them... kind of a lot. They hadn't been awful to her at all until the kids ran away. "They never mind controlled me, but they'd make me sleep, sometimes. They were psychic."
