"Why does everybody here look like supermodels?"
"I think it was a hidden requirement on the application."
Maira and Meredith were born to be twisted sisters- literally. Twins in every sense of the word, they take Seattle Grace by storm.
Season 2...
"After careful consideration and many sleepless nights, here's what I've decided. There's no such thing as a grown-up. We move on, we move out, we move away from our families and form our own. But the basic insecurities, the basic fearsandall those old wounds just grow up with us. And just when we think thatlife and circumstance have forced us to truly, once and for all become an adult, your mothersays something like that. Or worse, somethinglike that. We get bigger, we gettaller, we get older. But, for the most part, we're stilla bunch of kids, running around the playground, trying to desperatelyto fit in. I've heardthat it'spossible to grow up, I'vejust never metanyone who's actually doneit. Without parents to defy, we break the rules we make for ourselves. We throw tantrums when things don't go our way. We whisper secretswith our best friend, in the dark. We look for comfort where we can findit. And we hope against all logic, against all experience. Like children, we never give up hope."

The weeks after the bomb went by in a flash. Dylan, the bomb squad captain, died that day.
Maira was far enough away that went it exploded, the worst she got were some bruises and scratches. But she saw everything- and could now confirm the rumors of pink mist.
Webber wanted the woman to take a break after that. Something about the traumatic experience effecting her work. She fought teeth and nail against him, and ended with a one week mandatory break. She spent most of it in bed, sleeping while she had the opportunity. It was incredibly boring and once it was over she was excited to get back to work.
By the 2 week mark people had finally stopped staring and whispering. It was frustrating being known as 'the bomb girl.' It was safe to say she was glad it was finally in the past and everything was returning to normal.
The Grey sisters were strolling down the hall, stretching their legs after standing in on a long surgery. They'd been interning for a while now, but every time Maira stepped into an OR felt like the first time all over again. It was so exhilarating. She shared her feelings with Mer and she just laughed.
"Sometimes I think you love the OR more than me."
Maira gave her an innocent side look, and Mer shoved her as she laughed.
"But seriously, I'm glad you're feeling better."
She smiled, looping her arm with Mer's. It'd taken a bit of time to recover from the incident, but Maira was feeling good and excited and optimistic again.
