The Perk- Saturday afternoon

Aunt May had been here last year, but Gwen showed her around again yesterday anyway. Really, she just wanted a reason to spend as much time with her over the weekend as possible before she went back to New York. And today, quality time meant coffee.

"So what have you been up to today?" Gwen asked as they took seats.


[Gwen's here with Aunt May but the Perk is open!]

"Nothing too special. I visited a couple of your teachers," May said. "Is it weird that a superhero who uses arrows teaches Sex Ed?"
stacyexperiment: (hmm)

Gwen paused over her coffee, and realized that she was amazed no one else had ever gone there. "Eh, it's probably fitting," Gwen decided.

That's what she said.

"Wait. Does this mean you saw my Sex Ed teacher?"

"That poor man doesn't realize what he's gotten into with that class, does he?" May asked.
stacyexperiment: (studying you)

"Nooo. He tries, though," Gwen told her. "And the class really isn't half bad. You don't feel like you have to be shy or shut up about something."

"It would take a lot to stop you from speaking your mind, of course," May said. Her sip of coffee barely covered up her proud smile about that.
stacyexperiment: (smug)

"Even laryngitis just means I have to start sending texts," Gwen grinned. "Not sure how much the teachers would appreciate that..."

"They'd have to tolerate it," May said. "It's their job. Especially when dealing with someone in good enough standing to be on the Student Council." She didn't realize that basically nobody ran, no.
stacyexperiment: (if you say so)

"Yeah, I was signed up by squirrels last year," Gwen told her. "So I guess I'm good standing with rodents."

[identity profile] home4teenheroes.livejournal.com 2015-10-03 08:47 pm (UTC)(link)
"Did they sign you up this year, too?" May asked. Because she bet they didn't. She bet Gwen enjoyed herself.
stacyexperiment: (neutral)

[personal profile] stacyexperiment 2015-10-03 08:48 pm (UTC)(link)
"No. But they did sign me up for radio. Little varmint-y bastards," Gwen sighed.

[identity profile] home4teenheroes.livejournal.com 2015-10-03 08:52 pm (UTC)(link)
"You could just not do radio if you didn't want to," May pointed out.
stacyexperiment: (saying words)

[personal profile] stacyexperiment 2015-10-03 08:54 pm (UTC)(link)
"No, you can't, because then they show up at your room and wake you up and drag you to the radio station way too early. Squirrels are surprisingly good at kidnappings."

Oh, Fandom.

"Do you need me to have a talk with these squirrels?" May asked.
stacyexperiment: (ooh?)

[personal profile] stacyexperiment 2015-10-03 09:00 pm (UTC)(link)
"...Yes please. Can you? I mean, they're really drunk," she warned.

[identity profile] home4teenheroes.livejournal.com 2015-10-03 09:48 pm (UTC)(link)
"Just tell me where to find them," May said.
stacyexperiment: (so...)

[personal profile] stacyexperiment 2015-10-03 09:49 pm (UTC)(link)
"Well, the radio station," she said. "And anywhere. They take notes on everything, so they're probably watching us right now, like creepers."

[identity profile] home4teenheroes.livejournal.com 2015-10-03 09:53 pm (UTC)(link)
"Well, squirrels, if you can hear me (I can't believe I just said that)," May started, "Stop it with kidnaapping and forcing people to help you. Ask them! And say 'please'! It costs you nothing."

She turned back to Gwen. "They're not even paying you, right?" They were a bunch of squirrels, after all.
stacyexperiment: (up to something)

[personal profile] stacyexperiment 2015-10-03 09:55 pm (UTC)(link)
"Paying me nothing, and sometimes offering me rum," Gwen said, because once you were getting squirrels in trouble you might as well go all in.

[identity profile] home4teenheroes.livejournal.com 2015-10-03 10:02 pm (UTC)(link)
May gave her a look that suggested that the offers were expected to be rejected.

"And offering teenagers RUM?" May ranted. "If I EVER hear about that happening again, I am calling the state forestry service and having them come in to take the whole lot of you somewhere else! And if you don't change the way you treat the people helping you out--"

The rest of the rant was... unpleasant. But it got the point across, surely.
stacyexperiment: (laughing)

[personal profile] stacyexperiment 2015-10-03 10:35 pm (UTC)(link)
"I'm so glad you came here, Aunt May," Gwen laughed. This was the best.

[identity profile] home4teenheroes.livejournal.com 2015-10-03 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
"So am I," May said, flashing a smile before taking another drink of her coffee. "I don't get to yell at squirrels so specifically in New York."
