95,32 - Summer in February?

[ichoosefight]

I don't suppose anybody knows what the lights thing was about? [ Steph doesn't look too hopeful. Unless something exploded in the last hour or so, probably everyone else knows about as much as she does. She sighs, then gets back to her previously scheduled message. ]

I'm sure everyone this applies to already knows, but some of you have pretty cool significant others. To those of you who don't? [ She winces sympathetically. ] Sorry. I hope nobody's plans were too screwed up by it.

Anyway, I was wondering if anyone was up for another pool party. I'm unseasonably restless and I think pretending it's summer is exactly what would do the trick. Inmates invited too! Provided you aren't on murder watch or anything.

[ Private to Megamind ]

Still alive?

[megamind]

Yup! Still alive. [ And ridiculously chipper. He knows that things aren't perfect, despite everything, but honestly-- he's in a really good mood. ]

[ Which is why he's pretty much covered in a lap full of papers. ]

Everything went pretty good. Not get back together good, but-- I don't really think the whole romance thing is my bag anyway.

[ichoosefight]

Well somebody's in a good mood. [ Which is a little weird, honestly, but better than the alternative. ] You're not on drugs, are you?

[megamind]

[ That got the smile to drop right off his face. ]

No.

[private]

[ichoosefight]

[ And that earns a laugh. ]

Okay, okay. You don't want to tell me, I won't ask. So pool party. Are you coming?

[megamind]

Uhm. Am I invited? I've never been to a party before. I mean, one that I wasn't crashing.

[routemistress]

Try an' keep me away, Steph lovey.

[She's not touching the significant other thing.]

[ichoosefight]

How could I? You're the life of the party.

[fuckingvisions]

Sorry love, I'm on murder watch.

[ More he remembers getting shoved in the pool last time.]

[ichoosefight]

I'm pretty sure I get to decide if you're on murder watch.

[fuckingvisions]

Did I say murder watch? I meant I gotta work darlin'.

[ He should have known that would be a warden picks thing.]

[ichoosefight]

I promise nobody will throw you in this time.

[fuckingvisions]

...You promise?

[ He cant tell Steph no. Really sometimes it's like trying to push a cute kitten away. It just doesn't work.]

[buildindreemz]

A pool party sounds like a good idea.

[ichoosefight]

You want to come? They never turn sour. [ At least not in her experience. ]

[buildindreemz]

Sure, if you'll have me. [Haha Steph why are you so nice, even after everything.]

[ichoosefight]

Of course. Any snack requests? [ Because we all make mistakes. ]

[buildindreemz]

[So refreshingly non-judgmental. Ariadne really appreciates that.]

Oh, well. Pretzels.

[je_suis_avec_toi]

You talked to him?

[private]

[ichoosefight]

I did. So who is he really?

[private]

[je_suis_avec_toi]

I'm not sure he had any other name, but he was born to be the king of France.

[private]

[ichoosefight]

Explains the attitude and the name. [ Yes she remembers history class. ]

But who is he to you?

[hetrustsme]

Diana liked you a lot as well, but I'm pretty sure she'd like anyone that could handle her in a fight.

[ichoosefight]

I'm surprised I even could. All that training has paid off.

[hetrustsme]

Want to take it to the next level? I will move so you don't fully hit me and break your hand, I promise.

[ichoosefight]

How sporting of you. Sure, why not? It's not like we're paying for medical care.
