Who: Cisco Ramon
Broadcast: fleetwide
Action: the marsiva
When: current

[ today you can see cisco ramon putting tons of cheddar gel between two wheat solids, pressing them all together into a sandwich before heating them up on the highest setting available. it's not really grilled cheese but it's as close as it comes.

he's already eating out of a plate of frozen banana cubes ]

ok so eating all of this alone while everyone else is partying is absolutely my senior prom all over again just in space-setting.

[ oh to be a nerd, even in space. ]

so - what do we call ourselves? the fleeters? this is just for future knowledge, I am not in any way implying that title is.

[ the space microwave beeps ]

are they going to serve frozen tequila cubes in that party? because if so then a) awesome and b) I think those should definitely be provided to those of us who are stuck here on board of the SS No-Date.

Just saying.

[cisco's hard life.

also: what.]

There's no Black Canary. There's only the Canary.

→ priiiiivate

[benames]

there's definitely a black canary. trust me. I've met her.

[ firm nod ]

she's. Black Canary. you know. dressed in black. I still don't get the whole focus on color thing, the Green Arrow too, that's just not right. The Arrow is so much cooler and we could have worked out a different code name for Black Canary.

→ priiiiivate

[revivo]

Good to know he discovers color in the future.

[they got onto the topic of the black canary by talking about laurel, though. maybe she asked him for help with something for sara? hell, maybe she discovers color in the future.]

Ta-er al-Sahfer. Does that name mean anything to you?

→ priiiiivate

[benames]

you know the Arrow. that's legit cool.

[ but if she knows about the arrow and not about laurel...then that must mean laurel became black canary after her point of time in the multiverse!

which makes this very complicated. ]

nothing. sorry. was it supposed to mean something to me?

→ priiiiivate

[revivo]

[there's no point to denying it, with what she's about to admit.]

It means Canary. That's what they call me at the League of Assassins.

[just gonna

let that sink in.]

→ priiiiivate

[benames]

You're the other Canary?

[ he heard about another canary but ]

that is aweeeeesome! but scary at the same time.

[ since ]

you're Laurel's sister and also a friend of the Arrow. but - league of Assassins? please tell me you're getting a better job.

→ priiiiivate

[revivo]

[she's pretty much never expected to be greeted with that's awesome! after admitting to, you know, something like that. she doesn't mean for a smile to twitch at her lips, but she almost can't help it.]

Tried it. [she shrugs.] Wasn't for me. I work better from the shadows.

→ priiiiivate

[benames]

ok so I gotta figure this out - you're Canary which - so awesome, again - but you work for the League of Assassins which doesn't sound very pleasant but - you take down criminals? I mean - you know the Arrow so you must be - right?

[ fkjkffh ]

please tell me you're not fighting the Arrow, I might not be able to take it.

→ priiiiivate

[revivo]

I'm not fighting the Arrow.

[except, you know, when he's being an ass.]

The League cares about justice in its own way. Our methods are just a little different. [or a. lot different.] I don't prey on the innocent; I prey on the people who do.

→ priiiiivate

[benames]

I knew it! definitely fighting the bad guys. just like Black Canary.

[ narrowing eyes ]

what color is your suit?

→ priiiiivate

[revivo]

Black. [which is why she's confused here!!!] You're telling me there's someone else calling herself the Black Canary?

→ priiiiivate

[benames]

ahhhh -- might be.

[ help abort mission ]

a second Canary. to help you. with your --- Canariness. that's what she does. the. Black. Canary.

→ priiiiivate

[revivo]

What aren't you telling me?

→ priiiiivate

[benames]

...no..thing?

[ help him. ]

→ priiiiivate

[revivo]

[there's no help here. but, okay, fine. does she want to know her own future? her immediate answer isn't yes or no, which is enough reason to relent.]

Just tell me one thing. What's she have to do with my sister?

→ priiiiivate

[benames]

I'm pretty sure they're good friends.

[ he smiles a little ]

don't worry. but as long as we're on the subject -

[ leaning forward ]

do you have it with you? I mean - the suit? I doubt you had to go Canary here but still.

→ priiiiivate 1/2

[revivo]

[she'll let it go. for now.]

→ priiiiivate

[revivo]

Actually, you'd be surprised.

[she thinks she probably couldn't quit being the canary one way or another if she tried; not that she has.]

And no, no suit. I've had to make do with black clothes and hoping I don't run into anyone I know. Might be kinda awkward to explain.

→ priiiiivate

[benames]

...you've been canarying in space without a suit?

[ that's his best scolding tone sara, get it ]

we are going to get you a suit.

→ priiiiivate

[revivo]

[it's actually impressive how quickly he can go from being scared of her to scolding her.]

And how are we going to do that?

→ priiiiivate

[benames]

[ it's the magic of all things cisco. ]

we have all this tech and supplies, I'll get it done. I'll um. probably need your.

[ he gestures towards the camera to where her body is ]

measurements.

→ priiiiivate

[revivo]

[she pauses, frowning. a friend of felicity's is most definitely a friend of hers but his offer (almost an order) doesn't just feel like a offer. it feels like agreeing to a whole -- teamwork thing.]

Look, I appreciate that you want to help, but you don't have to do me any favors just because we're from the same place. [relatively speaking, anyway.] I'm not really a friendship bracelets and singing Kumbaya kind of girl.

→ priiiiivate

[benames]

somehow, none of you canaries are.

[ your sister threatened to kill him :| ]

I fight for the good. if the canary is here and she is helping people, I want in.

[ folding arms across chest. you can't stop him, sara ]

→ priiiiivate

[revivo]

I hurt bad people. That's not the same thing.

[says the woman who pulled a child out of a burning building.]

But if you're that determined, I guess I can't stop you.

→ priiiiivate

[benames]

yes! that's the spirit. can't be stopped, won't be stopped. you won't regret it!

[ ... ]

I mean, there's a positive 96% you won't. solid 95%.
