(https://i.ibb.co/DKYJ4H5/Songbird-Marvel-Comics-Thunderbolts-Melissa-Gold-a.jpg)<br/><br/>Following Carol into the kitchen was Melissa AKA Songbird. Her white and red hair was unkempt and she wore glasses, boxers, and a Metallica “Master of Puppets” t-shirt. Normally, Melissa slept in as much as she could, but for some reason, she woke up early this morning, and sleep would not return. Perhaps it was the prospect of seeing Lila Cheney tonight in concert at Madison Square Garden.<br/><br/>So, when she heard Carol get out of bed, Melissa gave up, and decided to join her in the kitchen. Misery loves company and all that. And if she couldn’t get back to sleep, then coffee was very much required to get her brain jump-started for the day ahead.<br/><br/>“‘Morning Carol,” Melissa said as brightly as she could (which wasn’t very) as she shuffled in. Spying Bobby and Wanda in the kitchen looking much less worse for wear than her, she quickly added “Bobby, Wanda,” followed by muttering to herself “damn morning people.” She also poured herself a cup of coffee, but then drowned it in milk and sugar. She took a gulp, sat down at the kitchen’s center island, and yawned before propping her head up on one hand. Melissa didn’t respond to Carol’s question about pancakes. Normally she didn’t eat breakfast, usually subsisting on just coffee.<br/><br/>If there was one person on the team not outwardly judgmental of her new teammates, it was Melissa. She was one of the newer members of the Avengers and with a very different background than most of them, save perhaps Wanda. Melissa was a reformed criminal who had helped the Avengers stop her former Thunderbolt teammates from taking over the world. Cap had put his trust in her and offered her a spot on the team after it was all over. Since then, Melissa had proven herself on several missions, which should have put any doubts to rest. But Melissa was still worried about what her teammates thought about her, though she did a good job hiding it.
