  Summary

  A fanfiction for Shoot From The Hip's newest sketch "The Office Affair" (09/21/25), following the aftermath of Joe Mama's terror and how it continues to affect the people involved.

  Darcy Maggliano has been several bad days away from a catalyst for collateral damage. Being the daughter of a notorious mafia leader, she finds herself between mourning her mother and balancing her new chapter of life as well as she can even after her mother's influence still continues to haunt her, leading to the civil war of the mind.

  Surely, she wouldn't let herself fold like origami, will she? Forced to prepare for an anticipating face-off between her internal conflict along with help of old colleagues, taking with her only a pack of gum, a gun and a purse.
