Malaney's Links
There are days that Lane can't imagine ever leaving this career, all thanks to Ti. Having an older friend with more experience is a real guiding light in this chaotic life. Ti keeps her grounded when Lane wants to explode a bit more. Those explosions have a time & place.
There aren't many xyns other than Ti that welcomed Malaney to the team, but July has never made her feel anything but belonging. Lane is almost jealous of July's family set up.... Well, she is. Happy for July, of course, but jealous since Lane is pretty sure she just isn't cut out for that life.
While she doesn't get why such a prissy lady wants to hang out, it has been refreshing. Sometimes it's a real blessing to be reminded that you don't HAVE to train constantly... just almost constantly to stay on top of it.
Sometimes you get cocky when you're a local celebrity.... but sometimes that cockiness gets you in the VIP area to meet your favorite badass. Lane is a hunk, but for right now she's just a friend.
