The Park, Thursday Late Afternoon

[mouthy-merc.livejournal.com]

Deadpool had a puppy with him still, a wriggling, yappy little ball of energy. So, really, the only difference from normal was that Zack now had better hair.

And... oh for the love of GOD. Not another musical number.

Show me how to lie
You’re getting better all the time
And turning all against the one
Is an art that’s hard to teach
Another clever word
Sets off an unsuspecting herd
And as you step back into line
A mob jumps to their feet

Now dance fucker dance
Man he never had a chance
And no one even knew
It was really only you

And now you steal away
Take him out today
Nice work you did
You’re gonna go far, kid

With a thousand lies
And a good disguise
Hit ‘em right between the eyes
Hit ‘em right between the eyes
When you walk away
Nothing more to say
See the lightning in your eyes
See ‘em running for their lives

Slowly out of line
And drifting closer in your sights
So play it out I’m wide awake
It’s a scene about me
There’s something in your way
And now someone is gonna pay
And if you can’t get what you want
Well it’s all because of me

Now dance, fucker, dance
Man, I never had a chance
And no one even knew
It was really only you

And now you’ll lead the way
Show the light of day
Nice work you did
You’re gonna go far, kid
Trust, deceived!

With a thousand lies
And a good disguise
Hit ‘em right between the eyes
Hit ‘em right between the eyes
When you walk away
Nothing more to say
See the lightning in your eyes
See ‘em running for their lives

Now dance, fucker, dance
He never had a chance
And no one even knew
It was really only you

So dance, fucker, dance
I never had a chance
It was really only you

With a thousand lies
And a good disguise
Hit ‘em right between the eyes
Hit ‘em right between the eyes
When you walk away
Nothing more to say
See the lightning in your eyes
See ‘em running for their lives

Clever alibis
Lord of the flies
Hit ‘em right between the eyes
Hit ‘em right between the eyes
When you walk away
Nothing more to say
See the lightning in your eyes
See ‘em running for their lives

Deadpool glared at the puppy. "You'll never speak of this, got it?"

"He might not, but I probably will," Veronica said, giggling as she walked up the path towards Deadpool and the puppy.

She had simply been on her way to the Perk for a cup of coffee.

[mouthy-merc.livejournal.com]

"Then Zack and I have to kill you," Deadpool informed her sadly.

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

Veronica pouted. "But I'm your tiny blonde friend!"

[mouthy-merc.livejournal.com]

"Who knows too much!" ...but there was that sinking feeling again. "God damn it all. I hate this day--You know, V, we should have teamed up years ago."

A beat.

"...which woulda been creepy."

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

"We're two of a kind, all right," Veronica replied.

Except for the part where she wasn't a mercenary. Details.

[mouthy-merc.livejournal.com]

BAH. They meant nothing in music.

"Partners!"

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

"Through thick and thin!"

Kinda like her and her teaching buddy, huh.

[mouthy-merc.livejournal.com]

"Night and day!" A beat. "Dibs on night."

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

"Right or wrong!"

Pause.

"Probably mostly wrong."

[mouthy-merc.livejournal.com]

"Probably?" That got her an eyebrow raised. Not that she could see it, though. "If you're ever in a jam, here I am."

A beat.

"Like moving bodies!"

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

That made her laugh.

"If you ever need a pal, I'm your gal."

She thought about that for a moment. "Unless it involves porn."

[mouthy-merc.livejournal.com]

"...but I like porn," Deadpool whined. "If you ever feel so happy you land in jail, I'm your bail."

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

Veronica gave him a look. "No you're not."

Oh but then there was singing together. And dancing!

"It's friendship, friendship,
Just a perfect blendship,
When other friendships have been forgot
Ours will still be hot!
Lahdle-ahdle-ahdle-dig-dig-dig."

Glinda was having the best day ever! The only thing that could make it better would have to be a duet.

"Hello Mr. Deadpool!" she called, spotting him when rounding a bend. And then, there was music!
She sang, "We are what we're supposed to be
Illusions of your fantasy
All dots and lines that speak and say
What we do is what you wish to do!"

[mouthy-merc.livejournal.com]

"Well, of course I am--" Deadpool squinted at her. "I hate you. We are the color symphony. We do the things you wanna see. Frame by frame, to the extreme."

[veryverypopular.livejournal.com]

"Why would you say something like that?" she managed to say before singing, "Our friends are so unreasonable
They do the unpredictable
All dots lines that speak and say
What we do is what you wish to do"

[mouthy-merc.livejournal.com]

"Because we're singing," Deadpool started. "It's all an orchestra of strings. Doin' unbelievable things. Frame by frame, to the extreme. One by one, we're makin' it fun--I'm not from a musical where people randomly burst into song and dance at important plot points, damn it."

[veryverypopular.livejournal.com]

"But it's fun," she said. Time to harmonize! "We are the Cartoon Heroes - oh-oh-oh! We are the ones who're gonna last forever!"

[mouthy-merc.livejournal.com]

He was sulky about it, but Deadpool joined in the damn chorus. "-We came out of a crazy mind - oh-oh-oh. And walked out on a piece of paper."

"FABIAN, WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU NOW?"

[veryverypopular.livejournal.com]

But wait, there was more. "Here comes Spiderman, arachnophobian- Welcome to the toon town party!"

[mouthy-merc.livejournal.com]

She was cruel.

"Here comes Superman, from never-neverland. Welcome to the toon town party."

[veryverypopular.livejournal.com]

"We learned to run at speed of light
And to fall down from any height
It's true, but just remember that
What we do is what you just can't do!"

She was dancing now. God help them all.

[mouthy-merc.livejournal.com]

"And all the worlds of craziness. A bunch of stars that's chasing us. Frame by frame, to the extreme. One by one, we're makin' it fun," Deadpool sang back, tapping his foot.

Zack howled something like an attempt at the lyrics with him. It wasn't helping.

[veryverypopular.livejournal.com]

"Here comes the chorus again," Glinda said, still as cheerful as always. "We are the Cartoon Heroes - oh-oh-oh! We are the ones who're gonna last forever!"

[mouthy-merc.livejournal.com]

"I hate your face." He did! "We came out of a crazy mind - oh-oh-oh
And walked out on a piece of paper"
