A Place for Everything

frankly if I'M mike wheeler and i know that MY supernatural archenemy loves using his mind control powers on little children in the first week of november and MY baby sister starts talking to an imaginary friend... well I'D do a little more than cognitive behavioural therapy with her. and maybe tell someone a little more supernaturally inclined other than my wine mom.

When Max wakes up her sight has been severely damaged, she needs special glasses that have quite thick frames. She hates them. None of her friends wear glasses and she's in high school which is just a breeding ground for bullies. So she doesn't want to wear them. Steve has had so many hits to the head over the years that his hearing and sight is a bit fucked. He hates his glasses too, he made fun of kids in high school with glasses. Steve thinks all he's got to offer is his face and body so he doesn't want glasses to ruin that. He wants his kids to be happy though and wants them to be healthy and capable. So he wears his glasses for Max, she's ecstatic when he visits her wearing them, it's one of the first smiles she's made since waking up. Max feels better knowing she's not alone, and Steve finds he doesn't mind his glasses as much now.
