MHA Lobby, Tuesday

When Loki came out for his weekly shift, he immediately switched on the Christmas mood lights because he fucking liked them and he wasn't afraid to admit that. Which was odd. But, whatever. The lights were on and lighting up the lobby like the inside of some high college kid's room. All he needed now was a black light to complete the effect.

Once the lights were done, he propped himself up behind the desk, feet on the counter and magazine on his lap. Not that he was reading the magazine but he thought more people would stop and talk to him if he looked fucking busy rather than bored as hell.

...what? He didn't know where that thought had come from.

Anyway. He paged through the magazine, reading a line here and there and trying not to just toss the fucking piece of shit away. The only thing that stopped him was an article on easy recipes for the beginner. He stopped and read that one.

[MHA is oooooopen!]

Sarah paused at his desk on the way to the gym. "You put the lights back on," she observed. "And good morning!"

"I wish, I would call Tony again if that wasn't sort of a business relationship," Sarah said, and blinked. A lot. "That .... wasn't where I thought that sentence was going."

"True, and it works as long as you don't get emotionally involved," Sarah commented. "Which was always my problem. Also? When you say that you're almost hot."

She definitely hadn't meant to say that.

"I don't want to talk about Br - my boy problems or about how you aren't my type but sometimes ...." she shook it off. "What's wrong with me today?"

Sarah took a long moment to process that. Intellectually, she supposed she could have slapped him down, but what came out was, "Thank you, I guess."

What? It wasn't like she was shocked to hear she was hot.

"Because I wanted to tell you something, and because it's the best time to get to the gym before there's a line for the weights," Sarah answered. "Is everything about sex to you?"

"No, are you?" she threw back. "And I wanted to tell you I talked to Daisy and tonight's good with her for karaoke, if it's good for you. And then we wondered if you could sing Britney Spears."

"I'm surprised the school hasn't recruited you to teach sex ed," Sarah commented dryly. "But yeah, with the right person it's amazing. I still sometimes miss how it was with my ex, and I might never see him again. But I'm such a relationship person, flings are just ... flings. Daisy says I'm 12 about it."

Speaking of spiels.

"... and that was about ten times as much information about my sex life as you probably ever wanted. This is weird, Loki."

"Yeah, I just haven't found someone I really clicked with yet," Sarah said, not sounding too worried about the whole thing. "Plus, I'm still hung up on Chuck. And I didn't just say that name."

She was frowning.

"I'm good at resisting truth serum. This is weird."

"Ex cover boyfriend who I spent Christmas Eve whining at you about," Sarah clarified, cheeks going red as she concentrated very, very hard on not saying the word Intersect.

She managed. Barely.

"He runs the Nerd Herd desk at a Buy More. I worked with him for a little over a year before I came here."

"Is he -- Depends on your taste. You're totally, completely different types," Sarah said, wondering why she was still having this conversation, why she couldn't seem to walk away. "He's really tall with dark curly hair. I'd say he's cuter and you're more handsome."

And, if he was playing that way, she had to add, "Are you hung up on anybody?"
