[Misty spends a lot of time in the cargo bay, with the plants, and she's more than happy to share the space with Wrath, especially if it means she gets to watch her do her art. For a while, she doesn't say anything to Wrath, just works alongside her in companionable silence and then, all of a sudden:]

Wrath?

[...]

What's "hurf durf?"

[She finishes the line she was on, then sets her stylus down. She's got this, something she can answer, finally.]

It's like... imagine someone was offering you ice cream. And you'd normally be like fuck yeah, I want some ice cream, that's my favorite flavor. But instead you say no, I don't want that ice cream, because only pussies like ice cream and I am way too badass to eat ice cream. Even though secretly you still really, really want ice cream.

That's hurfdurf.

[mistyday]

[Misty's eyes light up.]

Oh! So that's why Kitty wanted me to ask you. We were talkin' the other day about how boys do that shit all the time.

[pain_train]

Oh, yeah! So I did a research survey earlier to try to figure out if it's a boy thing or a having a wang thing. But... I didn't really get enough data. So I'm going to have to try a different experiment I think. I have to get Vision's help with that some time.

[mistyday]

Vision's real good at science stuff, I'm sure he can help you!

[pain_train]

I think he's pretty much good at everything? He's super smart. And nice. We've got such a good captain.

[mistyday]

We do... he's such a good leader. Not like what I had at home.

[pain_train]

He's really different from the general I served under, but that just means I have to be the hardass for him. What was it like for you?

[mistyday]

The leader of the Coven - she wasn't like Vision at all. Wasn't like your general either. All she cared about was herself and her own power, tried to kill anyone who stood in her way. Anyone.

[pain_train]

Oh, that's really bad. That's a shitty leader. Like... General Ravani was a hardass, but she cared about her people. She busted ass for us and did everything she could to keep us alive.

I'm sorry you had a leader like that. That sucks.

[mistyday]

Yeah well... she's dead now, so I guess that's good. Except we gotta find a new leader.

Or they have to, anyway.

[pain_train]

Well, hopefully that means the new one will be better? Maybe you should do it. Um. When you get back there.

[mistyday]

[She shakes her head most emphatically.]

I ain't goin' back there.

[pain_train]

[She nods.]

Okay. I hope you don't have to, then. I don't want to go back to my world either. So I hope we get a choice about it.

[mistyday]

Me too. Seems like they should just bring people like us who don't wanna go back and not bring people like Castle who don't wanna be here. Make a lot more sense than what they're doing now.

[pain_train]

Yeah, but I don't think they care what we want at all, so I... worry about it a little. Like if you win this show somehow, you get sent home, but what if you don't want that? Maybe just make sure to never win, I guess. That would make it easier. This isn't so bad a life.

[mistyday]

Or maybe if we could go home with someone else at the end, that'd be okay too. Some of these people seem like they got nice worlds.

[pain_train]

That would be the best, I think. Charles asked if I'd like to come teach combat at his school! That's so exciting.

[mistyday]

Oh yeah, you'd be real good at that!

[...]

Who's Charles? Is he your boyfriend?

[pain_train]

What? No. He's my good friend, but just a friend. He's got a super cute boyfriend named Erik.

I don't do the boyfriend thing anyway.

[mistyday]

Oh.

[...]

I never was very good at it either.

[pain_train]

Yeah, did it once, just ended up hurting the guy and making him feel bad. Don't want to do it again.

[mistyday]

I thought I had someone but... He wasn't right. Not his fault, but the other witches didn't know what they was doing, screwed him up real bad. I couldn't deal with him.

[pain_train]

Oh, that sounds really awful.

Are you going to try to find a boyfriend here? [That would be so cute.]

[mistyday]

[Misty colors.]

What? No! I mean... I haven't really thought about it.

[There are some cute boys around, but she can't even begin to think about how that stuff all works.]
