Library [03/07]

It was just another day in the library, damn it.

Jono had heard the radio last night, yes, and he was well aware that the entire island had gone absolutely barking mad, but, come hell or high water, he was going to do his best to make certain that today was just another day in the library, damn it.

... Mostly, this involved playing Farmville.

Which was somehow the cue for Jean to show up.

Yes, in a damned blaze of glory and psychokinetic fire. Because she was just that dramatic.

Or it was how things worked when you were the goddamn Phoenix.

Well at least she wasn't a whore. A goddamn whore.

"Hello, Jonothon."

"I'm here for the weekend, like so many others, it seems," Jean replied, walking over to the nearest row of books to touch the spines.

"I spoke with Nathan," Jean replied with a smile. Because that was clearly the best part. "I--appear to be dating a madman."

She was the goddamn Phoenix, okay? She could do what she wanted.

Or Decibel!

"And he kept making these odd leaps in reasoning. Which were right, but still unsettling."

Oh god, Batman was also Layla Miller.

Ah, ah... Marvel Girl.

"He's not from any of our timelines, no." Hey, her kinda kid was from the future. She could tell these things.

...plus she had godlike powers that were poorly defined.

"I think he'd start in on being the Goddamn Batman and how he trained to be the best at everything."

Everything, Jono. He even mentioned fucking in the list.

She might have been in earlier, but Death had places to be, things to, do ... people to creep out.

She walked up to the counter and leaned there, impassively watching Jono for a moment. She had a vague feeling of some connection to him.

"Hello, Jonothon."

Gaping was perfectly acceptable to Death.

"Death," she supplied. "You forgot me?"

She made a noise that would be tongue-clucking, except it wasn't entirely clear that she had a tongue.

That seemed to please Death, as she preened and smoothed her robes over those unusually ample breasts. "I am fond of it, thank you."

"What were you doing today?"

"Working," Death echoed. "And I am ... not working."

She hung there significantly, even though what she said should have been a weight off his mind. She wasn't his Death, or even his little-d death.

"Don't let me keep you from it."

"I shall," Death said, and glided away as silently as she'd come.

The chill down Jono's spine could start anytime.
