[ The way he's so focused on the problem, coming at it from a purely practical perspective — it reminds her so much of Simmons that it makes her chest ache with a longing to see her sister again. It's only been a few weeks but after so many years together, those weeks feel like lifetimes. But Simmons isn't here and neither is Fitz, so she has to face this problem on her own. ]
I honestly couldn't tell you all the specifics of what the gauntlets do, the people on my team who made them for me tried explaining it to me a bunch of times but it got technical really fast. [ She's less with the knowing the science behind her gauntlets and more about the thorough testing of each new version. ]
They're like arm braces — tight, because compression helps, and armored because I usually only wore them when I was on missions. But I had others for when I was healing after an injury; they'd help speed up the healing process and keep me from making it worse with minor uses of my power. Which... happens a lot here. [ Her voice goes a bit quiet at that last part. Without her gear or any of SHIELD's fancy medical resources, she's been playing a constant game of one step forward, two steps back. ]
When I'm doing something like that [ a vague gesture toward the book ] it starts inside me. It's kind of like a seismic wave like you said, but it's focused on my arms because that's how I project it. The shaking in my arms increases but it's always there. All of me is shaking all the time, like a thousand bees trapped inside me.
