"Oooh, mingling," Hannibal after wandering over and grabbing a drink. "Now all I need is a monocle and a pretentious name like...Harold. Vincenzo. Yeah, that one's better. Vincenzo the millionaire playboy Lego mogul who mingles and wines and dines. I'm awesome."

"Why would you need a monocle?" Viki asked curiously, if rather vaguely. "Are your eyes bothering you? Or one of them, I suppose..."

"Nope," Hannibal said, shaking his head. "You don't think one would make me look smarter? Or do I already look as intelligent as humanly possible?"

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

[blinkandsneeze.livejournal.com]

"I surely wouldn't know," Viki said, tilting her head at him. "How would I know how intelligent a human can look?"

"It was a joke," he admitted, half smiling. "I was just teasing you. And that's what the monocle stuff was too. Me joking around."

"Oh, well. That's alright then." She offered him a smile. "Are you here by design? It wasn't in my plans, however vague they were, but there's nothing I can do now..."

A considering pause.

"I'm Viki, if you please."

"Hannibal," he said, nodding. "And it was a mutual decision for me to come here. That's what my dad said anyway and he sounded smart. Or drunk. I couldn't tell."

"We can always use awesome people here," Seregil said, having come up in time to hear at least the last bit of what he was saying.

"Then, you've just added another to the mix," Hannibal said, giving a little bow to punctuate that. "Awesome plus one."

"Confidence can be very attractive," Seregil observed with a small smile. He bowed back. "Seregil i Korit Solun Meringill Bokthersa."

"That's...the longest name I've ever heard," Hannibal said. "I can't beat it. Hannibal King."

"It's a culture thing," Seregil explained. "You can just call me Seregil. Welcome to Fandom."

"Seregil," Hannibal repeated. "And thanks. The icebergs are a little weird. Second ice age when I was asleep or something?"

There was a clone of him there.

Why was there a clone of him there?

"Why are you here?" Deadpool asked, eying the kid warily. "If this is some attempt by Way to make me edgier with a X-23ish clone, I will stab my editor."

He missed having an editor...

"Global warming," Hannibal said, straightfaced. "That's why I'm here. Nasty business."

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

[mouthy-merc.livejournal.com]

Which was as good of an answer as any.

"...huh. Well. This is awkward."

"Because you're wearing pajamas and feel overdressed?" Hannibal asked.

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

[mouthy-merc.livejournal.com]

"One, they're not pajamas. Two... it's like talking into a mirror. A weetiny mirror."

It made sense to him.

"And three, I'm pretty sure we're played by the same person. I blame the shout out to him in the first few issues."

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

"They're pajamas," Hannibal insisted. "They even have footies. Hey! Do they have the buttons in ass area? I bet that's fun."

Rikku was trying not to stare at Hannibal. And she was failing, miserably.

Finally, she bounced over to him, lowering her voice conspiratorially.

"Deadpool?" she asked.

"Is that some cute nickname people give new kids here?" Hannibal asked.

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

[the_merriest]

"Um." Blink. Blink. Blink. "No. You're ... new?"

And ... kinda younger than Deadpool had been, when he had looked all Not-Deadpool for a couple of weeks.

"Do you have a dad? And is he, um. Completely insane?"

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

"I do and kind of," Hannibal answered. "Why? Are you friends with him?"

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

[the_merriest]

"I don't know," Rikku said, blinking a few more times. "This is either a weird Fandom-double thing or you're some kinda past-version of ... Deadpool. Or Deadpool has kids and never told me. Um. Wow. Sorry, my head's all hurty now, and I'm probably confusing the crap out of you. Hi. I'm Rikku. Is your last name Wilson?"

Unless Deadpool changed his name some time? Wow. Ow.

"I'm a King, not a Wilson," he said. "I stop short of saying I'm The King though."
