"Do you like pumpkin pie? Tony gave me one and it's the size of a *table* and I don't know what to do with it."

For a moment the emerald haired mutant just stares at the monstrosity that’s being offered out to her. Personally, she hated the stuff with a passion – actually, she hated almost every pie with a passion. There wasn’t enough of the crust to them and it’s just…it’s a whole different ball game from the sweets that she does find happiness and comfort in. So she takes a deep breath and is prepared to say no, to tell the red head that she can’t stand it and to take it somewhere else. But then she thinks of the Underground, of how much they’re in need of food, and she lets out a slow breath. This is a blessing in disguise, and she can practically already see everyone lighting up over it.
“Personally? I can’t stand it. But the Underground would love it. We’ve been a bit low on food and supplies lately, and I think they’re still sour about having to eat mac and cheese for Thanksgiving. So I’d love to take it off your hands for you.”
Low on food and supplies is one thing, mac and cheese for Thanksgiving is another. Natasha’s eyes narrow slightly, and she nods. “I’m definitely going to need to bring it in a car. I don’t know where your crew is roosting these days, though.” And I don’t expect you to tell me, she thinks wryly, though I’d like to meet them. You’re young, you’re capable, and you need help. I’m not a mutant-- maybe that could be an advantage, but I would understand if you didn’t trust me.
“If you can drive, I’ll just load up my car and let you have the keys if that would make you and your friends more comfortable. You’ll have to give me a day, though, I’ll need a vehicle for the evening.”
To get you kids some more food, because clearly one pie isn’t going to cut it here.
