"I was a Wednesday Addams goth, Stephen," she gently chides. His given name, not his surname, sounds very strange coming from her. It's in Wong's presence that she sometimes opts for "Stephen" over "Strange". It feels entirely informal and very friendly to call him a name that she thinks belongs to his friends.

"I had the black makeup around the eyes," she continues and gestures to her eyes with a flutter of her fingers, "and the very dark hair. It was very dark. I only started to go light in the States."

In an attempt to blend in, in a way to shed who she used to be. She tried to be someone she wasn't and only managed to go lighter and lighter until she set herself on figurative fire. Now, her hair is a strawberry red that separates her drastically from the dark woman who used to haunt Sokovia. Now, she brightens up New York City.

"But I set the bar very high." She raises her arm above her head and lifts slightly off her chair. "Taller than you. It would have been embarrassing if you had tried to be a goth like me," she laughs.
