To travel hopefully is a better thing than to arrive

I've actually be contemplating writing something very much like that scene! It would be part of a longer fic where she tries to stop a gunman, nearly gets shot, and he pushes her out of the way, then yells at her a lot about how dumb that was, then says he's going to drag her to the firing range so she can see exactly what bullets can do to their targets. To which she would reply that, uh, she's an ME, she knows, and he'd respond that obviously she hasn't really gotten it into her head if she's still doing stupid stuff like that, and of course the whole thing would probably end up with her getting into it and him being like, "I have created a monster. At least she'll be well-armed when she does something like this again?"

Awesome.

I can see where she might be anti gun...Never was into guns myself, nothing against them, just not my thing. But, on my Birthday, to do something new, my fiancee took me to a range and it was pretty exhilerating to fire a gun. I'm not a bad shot, either :)
