The Young Defenders all gained powers and formed a group as teenagers, they’re now all thirty-somethings. She’s matured in that time.

That seems more up existentialism's alley to me, though I think going there makes sense as a "next step" for someone who arrived at nihilism and feels the need to "move forward" from that point.

(Sorry, Thorp. I promise I won't start posting definitions or scholarly articles haha)

Nihilism is a pretty broad area of philosophical thought with a lot of subdivisions. However, generally when people talk about nihilism without some form of qualifier their referring to existential nihilism, the most common school of nihilist philosophy, which argues that life is without objective meaning, purpose, or intrinsic value.

However, in this case, it was just an angsty teenager trying to be edgy and intimidating. It was the Nineties, she probably listened to too much Marilyn Manson and Nine Inch Nails, she wasn’t reading Nietzsche.

Background:
Antony Castor is the fourth and final member of the Young Defenders, his exposure to the uncanny energies of the Terminus did not mutate him like the rest of his friends, instead it seemed to "unlock" a knowledge inside himself that Castor has described as "that feeling you get when you suddenly remember the lyrics to a song, but two days after you were trying to remember it." Castor gained a broad and intuitive understanding of magic, with a special knack for protective abjurations and healing arts.

Happy Mother's Day, BGIII! 8-)

I would have gotten to it sooner, but I've been busy spoiling the Mrs. Thorpocalyspe, which I didn't think was possible since I spoil her all the time as it is. ;)
