If it's weird to think anyone could miss the old Kate Freelander, girl solo, it's even weirder to see Magnus doubting herself. Even a little.
"If you sat on your ass and ate Alfredo's every day for the rest of your life, you'd matter." That's so solid and certain there's no room to doubt it. But Kate only gets fiercer the longer she talks. "If the millions of lives you've touched, changed, saved don't do it for you, well. There's Jimmy. He'd have blown up a subway if not for you. And there's me. Maybe someday I would've turned my life around without you, but I doubt it. So don't ever say that again. Don't even think it."
