"Dipper, be careful--" Nita steps forward in alarm, a hand out to stop him trying to use his powers. She relaxes once he fails; like she told Parker, magical loopholes are useful, but if you guess wrong...well, that never ends happily.
"Kubo, if you don't want to risk it, I'll do it." While she sure doesn't like the idea, Kubo is still just a kid, and shouldn't be faced with a choice like this when there's another way. Nita looks around at the group, solemn, with a quiet confidence quite different from her normal cockiness.
"Hitler was bad, yeah, but he lost, and he died knowing he'd lost. There were enough good people--ordinary, scared people with no powers or preparation--who stepped up to stop him. They held out for years against the Nazis without any idea when or if it would end. I can last ten seconds." Nita's closer to World War II than anyone else here, she's sure of it, and over the years of war stories and offhand comments, she's learned from Namor and Cap and all the other Invaders that the Nazi leaders were all petty, craven cowards. She is anything but.
