[ May knows what it means to have close calls. She's had more than a few over the years, and some of them were almost too close for comfort. But the thing is, every time she had one, she was too stubborn to just lie down and die. She still is that stubborn, and if death comes calling for her, she knows she'll fight tooth and nail before giving up and going off into whatever comes after death.
Now, though, things have changed. Coulson's gone, but there's still his Life Model Decoy, but to May, it's not the same. How could it be, after she was there with him in his last days? She woke up one morning to find him gone, and however real that LMD appears, it's not him. It's not the same.
So, when she lay on the ground with Daisy next to her, she couldn't help but think that she would be seeing him again soon. Except life and fate or whatever had different plans for her, and with Simmons' help and the help of a healing pod, she's still alive and kicking.
But being alive doesn't fix everything; she thought for awhile that she was going to die, and so did the team. She's glad she's alive, but what she's not glad for is the pointed looks she gets whenever she walks into a room, or passes someone in a hallway. She's fine; she's alive and uninjured, but they all keep looking at her as if she's crazy for walking around. Truthfully, if she has to stay one more minute in that pod, she really will go crazy.
Today, though, she has a purpose and a point to her walking. There's someone she has to see, someone she has to talk to. But thus far, that someone has been a hard person to pin down. If May didn't know better, she'd guess that that person has been avoiding her, but that can't possibly be it, can it? She has her suspicions, but the only way to confirm them is to find that person and make sure she can't get away.
It's still early yet, and the team is still in varying stages of getting ready for the day, which means that Daisy must still be in her quarters. That's where May goes, and once there, she knocks on the door. ]
