The Perk- Wednesday evening

After yesterday's constant duct-taping of zombies, Kitty really didn't feel like hanging around the bar today. For some strange reason. So tonight she was hanging out at the Perk, hugging a cup of something nice and hot like it was her best friend... metaphorically, anyway, and trying to people watch through the window.

Which was a little bit easier in anything other than a small town, really.


[Expecting one, but open, with the disclaimer that I'm on SP after 6 pm CST.]

At least there was that, yeah.

"I don't think I've seen you outside that bar before now," Guy informed her, nodding in greeting before ordering some tea. Shut your damn mouth about it.

Tora and Kyle both insisted it was soothing or some crap like that.
throughaphase: (little smile)

"I could say the same about you," Kitty pointed out, giving him a smile.

"I'm not that bad." Yes, yes he was. "I teach. Taught."
throughaphase: (neutral listening)

"Obviously I should have been crashing your classes," she said. Believe it or not, that was not the first time she'd said that to anyone. "You're not doing it anymore?"

[identity profile] onepunchguy.livejournal.com 2011-12-29 02:57 am (UTC)(link)
"Only if you were in need of sensitivity," Guy replied. "Takin' a break from it for a while. Work back home has picked up a little more."

Crayola Corps. Seriously.
throughaphase: (head turned profile)

"Does that mean you're going?" Which Kitty frowned upon, seeing as how he was one of the people she'd talked to several times and liked that.

[identity profile] onepunchguy.livejournal.com 2011-12-29 03:10 am (UTC)(link)
Back to Oa? Hell no!

He shook his head, taking a sip of the tea. Ugh. "I guess I'm unemployed at the moment. Unless you got an opening at that bar of yours. Since I spend enough time there it seems."
throughaphase: (i approve)

[personal profile] throughaphase 2011-12-29 03:15 am (UTC)(link)
"Are you serious?" she asked. "Because we have a couple open shifts. I could be talked into hiring you, I think."

[identity profile] onepunchguy.livejournal.com 2011-12-29 03:17 am (UTC)(link)
"Really?" Don't hire a ginger, Kitty! It can only end in crossover events!
throughaphase: (about to speak)

[personal profile] throughaphase 2011-12-29 03:21 am (UTC)(link)
What doesn't end in crossover events? "Really. Saturday and Sunday are open, and I am the boss..."

[identity profile] onepunchguy.livejournal.com 2011-12-29 03:23 am (UTC)(link)
...quietly talking out your issues in a rational manner?

"I could manage Sundays..." Dealing with the zombies would be like practice for the Black Lanterns!
throughaphase: (hearing what you're saying)

[personal profile] throughaphase 2011-12-29 03:32 am (UTC)(link)
"And no leveling the bar." After their last conversation, she felt this was very important.

[identity profile] onepunchguy.livejournal.com 2011-12-29 03:33 am (UTC)(link)
"I didn't do any of that. But I can't speak for people who try attacking it."

You know. Like Superboy Prime.

[personal profile] throughaphase 2011-12-29 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
"Tell everyone you piss off that you work somewhere else?" she decided. She was probably kidding.

[identity profile] onepunchguy.livejournal.com 2011-12-29 03:39 am (UTC)(link)
Considering their lives...

"I'll try to convince 'em I work in Metropolis." Superman could deal with that crap. "Or Gotham."
throughaphase: (distraction)

[personal profile] throughaphase 2011-12-29 03:45 am (UTC)(link)
"Not that I have any idea where those are," she realized. "Are you good to start this Sunday?"

[identity profile] onepunchguy.livejournal.com 2011-12-29 03:54 am (UTC)(link)
"..." Which was still weird. "Sure. Be nice to serve alcohol that's not made in someone's sink."

A beat.

"Don't ask. Managed to be the weirdest part of space."
throughaphase: (definitely listening)

[personal profile] throughaphase 2011-12-29 04:06 am (UTC)(link)
You can't tell me not to ask. It's just going to make me want to ask," Kitty pointed out.

[identity profile] onepunchguy.livejournal.com 2011-12-29 04:09 am (UTC)(link)
"You get enough people cooped up in one place with a lotta stress, people tend to find a way to relax. Some of that crap glowed."

A beat.

"The stuff that wasn't poisonous to carbon based lifeforms wasn't too bad, at least. No worse than Coors."
throughaphase: (frowny)

[personal profile] throughaphase 2011-12-29 04:15 am (UTC)(link)
Kitty made a face. She wasn't a huge drinker anyway, but that just sounded gross. "You're going to have to tell me where this is, so I know never to order from there."

[identity profile] onepunchguy.livejournal.com 2011-12-29 04:20 am (UTC)(link)
"Oa. Exact middle of the universe." Yeah, she wasn't going to end up there any time soon.

Unless Lockheed was there. Drinking his pain awaaaaay.
throughaphase: (i have interest)

[personal profile] throughaphase 2011-12-29 04:23 am (UTC)(link)
"Never heard of that, either," she said. Considering half the people she'd met here were from some version of her home, that threw her off a little.

[identity profile] onepunchguy.livejournal.com 2011-12-29 04:30 am (UTC)(link)
Guy frowned at that. "This place does that to you. At least you're from modern times?"

Alistair.

"There is that. I know how to use computers and turn on lights. I never thought I'd feel glad about that." This place. Seriously.

[identity profile] onepunchguy.livejournal.com 2011-12-29 04:42 am (UTC)(link)
"Does your world have the Bachelor there?" There had to be one place that didn't. Just had to.
throughaphase: (let me consider this)

[personal profile] throughaphase 2011-12-29 04:48 am (UTC)(link)
"Yes. Or at least I've seen the commercials." Like Kitty watched it.

[identity profile] onepunchguy.livejournal.com 2011-12-29 04:50 am (UTC)(link)
"How is that even television?" Someone hadn't been planetside in too long. "Worse than whatever the hell a Snookie is."
throughaphase: (are you even serious?)

[personal profile] throughaphase 2011-12-29 04:59 am (UTC)(link)
"Wait, that's worse than Snooki?"

Judging you, Guy.

[identity profile] onepunchguy.livejournal.com 2011-12-29 05:01 am (UTC)(link)
"People don't take her seriously," Guy countered. Like a boss.
