There's one in EVERY crowd… You see, the thing is, MM isn't a typical superhero(ine). She's not in it just for altruism's sake. Otherwise, she would spend all her time inventing cures for cancer and AIDS and deposing dictators and eventually end up ruling the world, with people eventually resenting her and trying to rebel against her… She's more like you and I—she gets involved when she's curious, or when it threatens her directly, or whatnot. Ringo already has a huge assortment of superhumans to choose from. If it weren't for the fact that the Smiling Man has recruited her old foes, the Sisters, who have a hate-on for her personally, MM would go, “Thanks but no thanks” and be off. She's not egotistical enough to think she alone will make the difference in a multiversal war…. But she's managed to hide her own particular reality from the Sisters. If Smiley reveals its location to them, she is VERY much in danger. Especially in her other identity. Still, speaking frankly is not going to win MM any popularity contests with the others. Next time, Ringo and MM have more words, and yet another webcomic gets involved…retroactively.–Al

The thing you have to keep in mind about Mindmistress is that, the sort of reasoning that would take the average person a minute or two to process, she could do almost instantly.
My interpretation is that she resents being coerced into saving the multiverse. This guardian of realities contacts her out of nowhere and is like, "The multiverse is in trouble, I'm partially to blame, and by the way, you have no choice but to assist." I'm sure if any of us thought about it long enough, we'd resent having our hands forced in the matter.
...even if we agreed that it was the right thing to do.

Yeah, I kinda side with MM on this one, if she's thinking what I think she's thinking.

She's right.

Just because someone admits they scewed up doesn't mean you have to forgive them...

More like MM hates being highjacked to clean up someone else's mess.

MM needs to cheer up a bit. Someone tickle her under the arms!
