Also, we're seeing her after an addition six years of self-training (via rather direct copying of the training Shang-Chi and other members of the 10 Rings were doing) and four years out in the world fighting folks.
    Hmm. Yeah, pretty good points. Yeah, I might have misinterpret some things.

    Oh come on, the kick in the balls from his sister was 100% unnecessary.

    And yes, Awkwafina and Aquafina are absolutely not related, and pure coincidence. On my defense - I never saw their names in writing, only heard in talk.
