Summary
Shuri allows herself this, and just this, while her brother is gone.
She builds a thousand new innovative technologies, a thousand new ways to protect Wakanda borders and her people. When the Avengers ask for help, she builds what they need and serves in any way she can. She does her duty and sits in councils and sits in war meetings and sits in trials. She does not complain or whine or snark, for she knows responsibility.
There is trial by combat to make her Queen. She stands in the middle of the pooled waters at the edge of a cliff, and her head is high and her heart is pounding. She is not big nor strong, but she is smart and cunning and fast .
Still, she feels it would be easier to just leap across the waterfall’s great divide and run far, far away until not even the blue skies above can touch her.
But she doesn’t. She is proud and she knows responsibility, and she does not.
