It feels like a bunch of "no pain, no gain" and "life's not meant to be easy," turning Rebecca's lips into a near scowl right up until the last thing Steve says. Then she just laughs, a harsh and tired sound.

"Funny. Last week I was told my soul was black." She pauses, considering him. "Did you know I almost killed one of my friends that same night." Not on purpose, of course, and there's still pain in her voice when she says it.

"Do you believe your soul is black?"

He doesn't comment on the friend incident though. He suspecting that is a deflection to shock him or revolt him.

Of course Steve's right. His question sticks, though, and she looks down, lost in thought for several moments before shaking her head slowly.

"Maybe not quite black."

A smile tugs at his lips.

"I think if you take the time to look deep into yourself that you will find a good person. None of us are without sin. And when it comes to dealing with powers beyond the scope of normal men, even the best of us make mistakes we will carry to our graves."

He would know.

"Do not let yourself be defined by your fears and your regrets. You have the potential to be so much more than that."

He wasn't the first person to talk to her about fearing her power. Rebecca's arms fold over her chest, shifting her weight to one foot until he's done. She really would love to believe that.

"Thanks, Director Harris." The words are softer this time, but also more genuine.

"So do I." She nods and gives a small wave. "It was nice meeting you."

"It was a pleasure to meet you as well Miss Jefferson." He said warmly, with a smile to match.
