Plot drop under the cut !!
Claire was in Micah’s (whom she knows as Aaron) apartment, probably cuddling and watching something on the TV while being rudely adorable. When news broke out that an on-going shootout was happening at Snake Eyes Casino, Claire immediately knew where she had to be. Micah practically begged her not to go, and after many (of his) tears, she left while his back was to the door.
When Claire arrived at the Casino, she did her best to stay on the outskirts of all the action. She had something to live for now, after all. With her gun in hand, her only goal was to watch someone’s back. The only lives she took were the ones that were about to kill Cobras. She saved the lives of her friends and family.
It would be impossible for Claire to save all of them. She’s only one woman, after all. So she saw lives being taken that shook her to her core, each gunshot that lodged into the body of a Cobra, thundering in her ears. However, she is a leader now. She is a leader of capable soldiers, so she isn’t wasting anyone’s time by being outwardly anxious. She’s trying her best to be a comforter, a listener, and a motivator.
So now that the war has started up again, it kinda means good things and bad things for her. The good thing is that she can now outwardly hate Savages again. Woo! The bad thing is that she’s in love with a Savage now and it’s only a matter of time before something tears them apart... and one of those things could be death.
