Editing Finale (section)

===Background===
Bella grew up as isolated child, often rejected by other people due to her lack of self-control and developmental issues. At some point, music and her drum-set became one of her sole passions.<ref name="series">Yeah.  Finale couldn’t help but agree.  Her entire life had been a long slew of accidents and fuckups that she hadn’t been able to see coming.  Her entire life, it felt like everyone else had the ability to put on the brakes or see the bad stuff coming and steer clear, while she stumbled into it.  She was getting better. - [https://www.parahumans.net/2019/11/05/interlude-17-x-sundown/ Excerpt] from [[Sundown 17.x]]</ref> She triggered after an important concert, where she was manipulated into going off-script after her part, and was admonished and faced with a possibility of losing her drum-set.<ref name="II17.x"/>

Bella had her trigger event a year later than [[Withdrawal]] and [[Caryatid]]. She eventually got in touch with her friends online.<ref name="8.8 1">We got in touch online.  All of us got our powers young- it was Caryatid and me at first.  Finale a year later.  We had different names then, obviously,” Withdrawal said.<br/><br/>“Yeah.”<br/><br/>“We were fine, got along great, she was a bit immature when we were ten, eleven, twelve, but we grew up and she… didn’t.  Not mentally.”<br/><br/>“Because of her power?”<br/><br/>He was startled by that, and the sudden shift in position forced one of his legs to take on additional strain.  It wobbled precariously, metal straining on each flex to the extent that I could hear it creak and pop.<br/><br/>“That’s a thing?” he asked, once he’d found his stability.<br/><br/>Geez.  These guys needed to take a powers 101 class.<br/><br/>“Could be,” I said.  “I guess it doesn’t make sense as a thing powers would do.  Powers tend to steer clear of the suicidal, the helpless, the invalid, or people who are limited.  I wouldn’t rule it out one hundred percent, but I wouldn’t blame the power either.” - [https://www.parahumans.net/2018/07/28/beacon-8-8/ Excerpt] from [[Beacon 8.8]]</ref> She dropped out of school to become a hero, and wandered the Midwest with her team for around four years before Gold Morning, though without much success.<ref name="8.8 3">A painfully slow search online brought up some images of kid heroes with terrible costumes.  They’d been small timers before Gold Morning, small town ‘heroes’ who’d rotated between three middle-of-nowhere towns in North Dakota looking for villains or criminals.  Four years of activity and they hadn’t found any.<br/><br/>It would have been easy to dismiss them, or to disparage them.  They had dropped out of school to be heroes and had no wins.  The lack of education was clear in the spelling errors.  It worried me a bit that their referral had come from ‘Super Magic Dream Parade’, the loopy team from Boston, who had apparently heard about what we were doing and passed on word. - [https://www.parahumans.net/2018/07/24/beacon-8-7/ Excerpt] from [[Beacon 8.8]]</ref>
