Android's Dungeon, Wednesday, 1/7

[saveyoulater.livejournal.com]

Rain was bad enough. Cold rain was even worse. Cold rain combined with a walk to work and an umbrella that seemed determined to turn inside out every four steps? That was simply evil. Sarah took off her soaked sweater, stripping down to a tank top, and cranked the heat in the store up higher so she could dry out.

Once she was done cursing the weather, the island, and the entire East Coast, she started unpacking a box of action figures.Of course the box was full of toys depicting that Y-Man who controlled the weather.

Sarah was jealous as she went to make a pot of coffee.

"Holy shit, it feels like the seventh circle of Hell in here," Loki said as he pushed open the door. "How are you not dying of heatstroke?"

[saveyoulater.livejournal.com]

"Because it was cold and wet outside and I'm still drying out?" Sarah suggested, turning to look at him. "It's not that hot in here, anyhow."

[flipped-god-off.livejournal.com]

"It's hot," he said and peeled off his coat. "Yuck. It's not that cold outside and the rain's nice. Little colder and it'd be snow."

[saveyoulater.livejournal.com]

"At least snow is pretty. Rain is just ... wet," Sarah commented, but she was moving around to the thermostat again and fiddled it down a few degrees. You know. Just because she had dried out a little.

"This might be better."

"Rain means fucking puddles though." He'd always liked puddles. "You can jump in them, get yourself and everyone around you wet. Who doesn't think that's fucking awesome?"

Sarah didn't, actually, but the mental image made a smile twitch at the corners of her mouth. "You kind of sound like a really big six-year-old, there. Did you get new galoshes you have to try out?"

[flipped-god-off.livejournal.com]

"For Christmas?" He shook his head. "I got...an awesome hat from Biff, a painting, a tool belt, a bottle of alcohol, thank you for that, and a pink plant. Yeah, I know you're jealous."

[saveyoulater.livejournal.com]

"Totally. I got a book on feng shui and a bottle of vodka, so I guess the whole thing about getting back what you put out worked for me this year," Sarah said. "What's the painting of?"

[flipped-god-off.livejournal.com]

"Jesus and Elvis," he said and laughed. "Most hideous fucking thing ever. Lindsay gave it to me. It's going in the lobby."

[saveyoulater.livejournal.com]

"Afraid it would give you nightmares if it stayed in your place?" Sarah laughed. "That sounds like Lindsay. I can't wait to see it."

[flipped-god-off.livejournal.com]

"Lindsay's suggestion, actually," Loki said. "I stick in the lobby and if people fucking hate? They get tossed out and I refuse to rent to them."

Not that he could do that legally but well.

"As long as you don't do it retroactively and make me keep it in my apartment overnight as a test, that's ... an idea," Sarah said.

She didn't want to wake up with Elvis staring at her.

[flipped-god-off.livejournal.com]

"You're safe from the all seeing gaze of Elvis and Jesus," Loki said with a smirk. "I wouldn't throw you out, Sarah. Come on, we have too much fun together!"

Okay, that was mostly serious.

"You just hope I'll while to you about my boy problems again," Sarah joked. "But, I'm glad I'm free of Elvis. I'd hate to have to go back to the hotel."

Or to MCA, but that was a whole different kind of awkward.

[flipped-god-off.livejournal.com]

"Your boy problems weren't so bad. I've heard worse, believe me," he said and shrugged. "And I haven't seen you crawling around drunk lately so it seems the boy problems aren't too bad anymore."

Daisy was definitely not going on patrol now that the weather had shifted from lovely fog to not so lovely cold rain, but she was going to take a long lunch break for a visit.

"Hullo, Sarah; hungry?"

[saveyoulater.livejournal.com]

"I'm doing okay. I have a date tonight," Sarah shrugged. "What about you, anybody special?"

[saveyoulater.livejournal.com]

"Did you cook?" Sarah asked with a grin. "If you did, I could be. Hi!"

[justice-beat.livejournal.com]

And that would be when Daisy lifted up the plastic container in her hand and gave a faint grin. "Leftovers. Woke up this morning and knew it'd be a good soup day, and then I thought maybe I'd come over and see if you wanted any, or else I'll be eating it until the end of time. I always make too much."

[saveyoulater.livejournal.com]

"You made soup without a can first thing in the morning?" This was a godlike feat, and Sarah looked appropriately awed. "Wow. I'd love some, let me see if I can find a bowl back in my office."

[justice-beat.livejournal.com]

"No, no, I made it the other day," Daisy explained, waving a hand to wipe that awe right off Sarah's face. "And then put it in a container to take with me today. I'm not quite that good, although I have thought of doing that a few times."

[flipped-god-off.livejournal.com]

"Oooh, date. Drive in movie? Hands meeting in the popcorn bucket! And then a midnight stroll on the boardwalk. First kiss under the moonlight. Ah, bliss."

Stop watching so many movies, Loki.

"And me? Well, I mean, I do have kind of have a thing for Tino," he said, not even bothering to try and be serious about that statement.

[saveyoulater.livejournal.com]

"See, I totally would have believed you were that good," Sarah said. "I'll settle for leftovers, though, if I have to."

She was totally kidding, and she smiled as she moved toward the little kitchen area. "You can come back here if it needs to heat up."

[saveyoulater.livejournal.com]

"Tino's very attractive. I'm not surprised," Sarah deadpanned. "Except I thought he had a thing for the God of Biscuits."

[justice-beat.livejournal.com]

It was definitely not a cold soup day, so Daisy was striding after Sarah a second later. "I could have probably nuked it at the station, but it might have gotten cold again by the time I got here, in this weather."
