Who: Kate Bishop + YOU
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Iskaulit
When: Yesterday evening.

Want to play a game? [ kate's surroundings are, quite evidently, a lush little corner of málum. the neon-y blue tinge of the bar's decor casts its colour over her features. there's a tall, impressively concocted cocktail at her elbow. ] I mean, I know I do. So here's how it goes: you tell me anywhere you'd rather be but here, with the caveat that it can't just be a home. I think it's safe to say that home is a very understandable answer, but it's also a little too achingly realistic for my purposes. So pick somewhere else. Pick Ibiza. Pick Iceland, if you want.

Well, unless Iceland is your home. Then please refer to rule numero uno. It also happens to be the game's only rule. [ short and sweet, that's our katerade.

and maybe about an hour (and maybe another drink) later: ] ...Does anyone wanna come dance with me?

[ swipe right, dear flooters. swipe right. ]

[ladybro]

Don't you hate it when the morally dubious opponents are also scathingly truthful? It hardly seems fair.

[takingkarabusiness]

I think that's what makes them so evil.

[ladybro]

That, and their stunning lack of tact.

[takingkarabusiness]

And penchant for global destruction, but yeah.

[ladybro]

God, super-villains suck. Thank God there aren't that many kicking around here.

[takingkarabusiness]

Let's not jinx it. Not until I have my powers back, anyway.

[ladybro]

Well. Keep an eye on Loki, anyway. He's one of those sometimes-villains.

[takingkarabusiness]

I haven't met him. What's he like?

[ladybro]

This version of him? Who knows. The one I know back home is mostly just a supreme pain in everyone's ass. But I've heard this one can be...trickier.

[takingkarabusiness]

I mean, how? Is he or isn't he threatening?

[ladybro]

How familiar are you with Norse mythology?

[takingkarabusiness]

I can't say it's been a high priority on my "learning how to be an Earth human" lesson plan.

[ladybro]

Loki's a liar. A trickster, I guess. His bad-i-tude isn't always super apparent.

[takingkarabusiness]

Ah. The sly sort?

[ladybro]

A sly god. Sorta. Depends on what myth you're reading, I guess. Some might say the line between deity and alien gets mighty blurred, sometimes.

[takingkarabusiness]

Oh, well, alien deity. You could've started with that.

[ladybro]

I guess I buried the lead on that one.

[takingkarabusiness]

Some things I connect with more easily than others.

[ladybro]

Well, when it comes to OP aliens? I prefer your company much more to his.

[takingkarabusiness]

OP?

But thanks, I appreciate that.

[ladybro]

Over-powered. [ ... ] It's meant affectionately.

[takingkarabusiness]

Of course.

I mean, it's not my fault you're jealous.

[ladybro]

Oh, hun. [ she laughs. ] That's a good one.

[takingkarabusiness]

[ also laughing a bit ]

It's okay. I know you don't want to admit it.

[ladybro]

That's it: I'm just green with envy over your powers.
