Mr. Many

[written]

Don't contact me again.

The hair color? Is natural.

[no explanation is given for this non sequitur; she's just griping because someone called her a goth chick]

Comments

[kryptonian]

It adds to the goth-girl thing.

Also, you dress like you've been to a rave. Or live in one.

[wantsiceland]

I just got my suit back; that means I'm going to use it.

[...]

Who would wear a bodysuit to a rave?

[kryptonian]

Lots of people.

Anyway, getting down to business... you going to pony up the details on Mr. Many? Because I can come get you and put you in prison until you're ready.

[wantsiceland]

Aw, I'm just flattered by the attention, but I already told you heroes everything I know.

[kryptonian]

Oh, and that excuses kidnapping?

[wantsiceland]

Who says I'm trying to excuse it? I'm a bad guy. I do bad things.

[kryptonian]

[her tones get a bit more serious]

If you don't have any more information to give us, then I guess you're just going to prison regardless.

[wantsiceland]

What, were you planning to try to cut me a deal?

[kryptonian]

No, it was never a deal. I was going to get you anyway, I just wanted to know if you had anything to tell us.

But at the same time, why bother hiding anything? You obviously didn't value your partnership with him if you would just turn around and botch it.

[wantsiceland]

You call that a partnership? The guy hires me, doesn't tell me squat, and has me sit in a room surrounded by bombs and do babysitting duty. Did he even have a point to this "evil plan" of his? Because it sure didn't seem like it.

I expected a real job from him, but he didn't cough one up.

[kryptonian]

Bombs you didn't know were there.

Why'd you take it?

[wantsiceland]

Again: bad guy.

You get the kid out?

[kryptonian]

Luke? Of course.

And just because you're a bad guy doesn't mean you have to take random, ambiguous jobs without even knowing all the details.

[wantsiceland]

No, but see, where I come from the villains have this thing called competency. I was obviously expecting too much to hope for the same thing here.

[kryptonian]

Lucky you.

Also, boo.

[wantsiceland]

Boo?

[kryptonian]

[Taps her on the shoulder. Guess who put that superspeed to use?]

[wantsiceland]

[... okay, that was completely unexpected]

[whirling around and jumping into a preparatory fighting stance]

How did you find me?!

[she took her nameplate off her door and everything ~*baww*~]

[kryptonian]

[She folds her arms.]

You talk a lot. I listen.

[wantsiceland]

[she doesn't stand down, but doesn't jump into fighting either]

Didn't anyone ever teach you it's rude to stalk people?

[kryptonian]

[Kara shrugs.]

I'm pretty sure that when you commit crimes, your rights are waived.

[wantsiceland]

I wonder if using your super-special hearing powers count as an unlawful search.

[kryptonian]

I'm sure the Powers That Be overlook that when there are at least seven witnesses to say what you did.

[wantsiceland]

Aw. Pity.

[kryptonian]

Pity?
