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.

Afternoon
... Time to poke at Superhero City again.
Re: Afternoon
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
goddamnPhoenix.Re: Afternoon
Jean, Jean, Jean, you shouldn't pick men like that up. You don't know where they've been.
//Bloody hell.//
It was the goddamn Phoenix.
Re: Afternoon
"Hello, Jonothon."
Re: Afternoon
Definitely Jean. Possibly a touch more terrifying than Jean, and slightly more likely to eat suns. But still Jean. Absolutely.
//To what do I owe th'pleasure of yer company?//
Because holy hell, it was the Phoenix.

Re: Afternoon
And not just because of that outfit.
//How are yer liking it, thus far?//

Re: Afternoon
His brain was going to be kind of barely squeaking along throughout this conversation, he was fairly certain.
//A bit of a trend with yer around here, I'm afraid.// He had never had the express pleasure of having met Tybalt, but he had ears and a radio. He was allowed to judge. //I mean that in th'nicest way.//
Re: Afternoon
"He kept calling himself the 'Goddamn Batman' the entire time."
Re: Afternoon
Chamber was a far better codename.
Re: Afternoon
"And he kept making these odd leaps in reasoning. Which were right, but still unsettling."
Oh god, Batman was also Layla Miller.
Re: Afternoon
//He's not from th'future, is he? That'd explain it.//
People clearly sucked at coming up with codenames in the future.
Ergo, Decibel. Yes.
Re: Afternoon
"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.
Re: Afternoon
... Okay, Jono wasn't a super mutant or anything. But someday. Maybe. If they ever figured out what they were going to do with that Apocalypse blood transfusion mojo.
Anyhow.
//That's probably a relief, gel,// Jono decided with a small, knowing sort of nod. //I might have t'laugh at him if he was.//
Re: Afternoon
Everything, Jono. He even mentioned fucking in the list.

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."
Re: Afternoon
Pardon Jono for needing a moment to kind of gape, here.
//Uh... Hullo, miss...?//
Her name was sitting on the tip of his proverbial tongue. He was certain of it. He was also not entirely sure he wanted to remember it in the first place, because of the potential for his head hurting.
Re: Afternoon
"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.
Re: Afternoon
... Jono's brain just did that thing where it kind of stopped working for a moment. If he'd been a computer, he'd be seeing the world in a solid shade of blue with a blinking white square in the top corner.
Huh.
//Purple's a good colour for yer, luv.//
Yes.
Re: Afternoon
"What were you doing today?"
Re: Afternoon
Especially when you were dealing with your Death, instead of the one that you liked to call yours but with a 'Didi' tacked on, instead.
This place hurt his brain.
//... Working?//
Farmville.
Re: Afternoon
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."
Re: Afternoon
Save that chill down your spine for after she's gone, Jono. You can do it.
//Have a... Good afternoon off, then. Lovely weather we're having. I-- Mm. Yes.//
Re: Afternoon
The chill down Jono's spine could start anytime.
