Caritas- Tuesday

[throughaphase]

Kitty was a little late to work, thanks to the fact that her dad had called right before she was supposed to leave, and she hadn't wanted to just push him off the phone right away. She didn't hear from him enough as it was.

Aaaand then she walked into the bar and found Tino wearing a cowboy hat. She was going to have to try and figure out how to ask if he was someone else today, or if this was just a thing he was doing today.


[Aaaand in Kitty's AU, Genosha never happened. We're going subtle for this one!]

Derek took a seat at the bar, at least glad this one didn't smell like trolls.

Re: Bar

If Kitty looked surprised, it was due to the fact that she was surprised, and also because she'd thought she wouldn't see him till she finally got tired of giving him space and sought him out. "Hey."

Re: Bar

[justlurkinghere]

Which was about right for Derek, to be honest.

"Hey."

Re: Bar

[throughaphase]

"Did you want a water?" she asked after a moment.

Who knew, maybe Caritas' water was worth a non-drinker coming in for!

Re: Bar

[justlurkinghere]

"Sure." Wow, look at you two with your talking.

Re: Bar

[throughaphase]

She'd get there!

Kitty got the water, placed it in front of him, and said, "I didn't expect to see you here."

See?

Derek's eyebrows went up as though to say 'oh really?'. Because they were expressive like that.

Re: Bar

[throughaphase]

Eyebrows were not words, Derek.

"So what's up?" she asked, only just starting to think he might not have come here to yell at her some more.

Re: Bar

[justlurkinghere]

Yell, no. Be obnoxious... distinct possibility.

"My therapist was a woman and now I think he's a mobster." Last he heard on radio.

Re: Bar

[throughaphase]

On the plus side, that was probably more information than he'd offered this whole year so far. But it did leave her even more confused.

"Okay, that's new..."

Re: Bar

[justlurkinghere]

"Something very strange is happening on this island."

Re: Bar

[throughaphase]

"It's been happening for a while," Kitty said. "I'm amazed we haven't hit panic mode yet, honestly."

Re: Bar

[justlurkinghere]

"It'll get there soon enough," Derek replied slowly.

Re: Bar

[throughaphase]

"That sounds ominous," she said.

Re: Bar

[justlurkinghere]

"It sounds like this island."

Re: Bar

[throughaphase]

"Point," Kitty sighed. "I just want it over with. After four months of constant weirdness, I'm ready to be bored, and not hear voices, or see weird things, or not re-meet people who knew me in alternate realities for at least a week or two."

She said, not knowing she was one of those people...

Re: Bar

[justlurkinghere]

It happened to everyone these days!

"Hopefully sooner rather than later."

Re: Bar

[throughaphase]

"Hopefully. Though I guess it's a good conversation topic. Bright side," she shrugged.

Re: Bar

[justlurkinghere]

"It's as good as any," Derek replied dryly. Because why discuss your issues now?

Re: Bar

[throughaphase]

"I guess so. Don't suppose you have any insight on how to fix it?" Kitty'd had several conversations like this over the last few weeks, and that was the part that always stumped her.
