Caritas, Saturday

[needsacatchphrase]

Tino was giving Jane exaggerated shocked and confused looks about her coming into the bar to set up for the evening. Because he was Tino and not at all for any other reason. Really

"Okay, okay. So maybe I've been busy," she sighed, hauling one of the kegs that he'd been ignoring down to where it needed to go.


Sometimes it just went that way.

Specials
The Hard Sell
Bitter End


"I'm never letting you pick specials again," Jane said once she looked them over.

"Yeah," Jane replied. "But also real. Asgard being another planet or plane of existence."

She hadn't gotten to plot that one out before it was destroyed. Also, she disappeared for 5 years around that time.

"Makes as much sense as anything," Sabine decided. "Definitely more than a magic hammer."

Was it wrong to be a little mad at a hammer?

[needsacatchphrase]

But it was so adorable! Look at lil' mew mew.

"I had all my thesis work screwed up by it," Jane said. "And had to go with all new theories on wormholes instead."

[seriesofbaddecisions]

"Your thesis was on wormholes?"

See now she was torn. Because... magical insulting weapon, but also smart woman who knew about wormholes (who also had those arms, let's be real).

[needsacatchphrase]

"And I was proven right," Jane said proudly. "It's completely feasible, it's just the details now."

And power.

[seriesofbaddecisions]

"I want all the details on this," Sabine told her.

[needsacatchphrase]

Jane positively beamed, grabbing a cocktail napkin and a pen to start writing out the math on it and pointing out each part with far, far too much enthusiasm. It felt like it had been ages since she'd done a lecture on the subject after all.

[seriesofbaddecisions]

And Sabine listened intently, adding some of her own perspective, because while she might not be into astrophysics, she absolutely had questions on the math parts.

"I love that you know all this," she said.

[needsacatchphrase]

The lone cocktail napkin was now about ten cocktail napkins with their combined math on there. Because that's just what you did at a bar, right?

Somewhere... Tony Stark was nodding along with that assessment.

"I got pulled into a wormhole by all this," she said, gesturing at the hammer. "Before. And had to figure it out."

[seriesofbaddecisions]

"Your magic hammer can pull you into wormholes," Sabine said. "You don't hear that every day."

[needsacatchphrase]

"I can't do it," Jane admitted. "But the previous owner of it..."

Oh, there was that soft tone of someone missing someone.

[seriesofbaddecisions]

"The previous owner was special?" Sabine guessed.

[needsacatchphrase]

"He was. Is." Jane cleared her throat. "But it's possible with ships. I know that too. They have jump points in space."

[seriesofbaddecisions]

"I'd love to see it in action sometime," Sabine said.

You were gonna get close enough to it, Sabine, let's not rush that.
