She is, but she's also an idiot sometimes. [ pointblank. ] She's...obviously really strong and really smart and can take care of herself just fine, but she's kind of the worst at remembering she doesn't have to do everything herself just because she's able to. Half the time I'm pretty sure she doesn't even notice what I'm trying to do here.
