Going off-Barge for a little while.  Later.

[Friends Filter]

I dunno how long I'll actually be gone. I'm gonna aim not to be away any longer than a couple days Barge time, but you know how the Admiral exists to totally ruin your plans? Yeah.

If anybody wants anything from my world or Gotham, now's the time to ask.

[Private to Tim]

I figure it's better to do this before either of us have an Inmate, right?

[Private to Cissie]

If you wanna come get that hug before I go, I'll hold still long enough for you to do it.

[Oh god. Kirk, Shego and Tim? THE WORDS FOR CISSIE'S EMOTIONS EXIST ONLY IN KEYBOARD SMASH.]

I'll be over in a minute.

[...When she's not crying or punching things.]

[Yeah Shego had to finish with that phase of her evening before posting this. :c]

Sure.

[Cissie had mostly migrated to sulking... until Shego's post. And then she needed a few minutes to pull herself together, because dang it, the post-graduation hug was supposed to be a celebratory thing, not a depressed-and-clingy thing. :| But after maybe a liiiittle more than exactly a minute, Cissie knocks on Shego's door. She even mostly doesn't look like she's been in tears. Make up is awesome.]

[It really, really is. Shego opens the door, doesn't say anything for a moment, then executes a mental 'fuck this' and pulls Cissie into a hug because it's a crappy day for both of them and she has big-sister responsibilities dammit.]
cisskabob: (Hold me close)

[personal profile] cisskabob 2011-11-26 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
[When Shego opened the door, Cissie managed to smile, but when Shego makes the first move, she's relieved--partly because she doesn't have to figure out what to say yet. She returns the hug tightly, and is maybe just a little clingy. She's also not really sure she cares. As long as they're hugging, no one can see if she's tearing up again.]

[Spam]

[identity profile] gotgreenmagic.livejournal.com 2011-11-26 11:12 pm (UTC)(link)
[Shego is aware of the clinginess - only just, she doesn't really get hugged often enough to judge specific hug characteristics - but she can't think of a single reason she'd object to that. She just lets the silence stretch out a while longer and swallows around the lump in her throat. As much as she can't say no to the opportunity to leave for a little while, it's difficult not to really regret graduating right now.]
cisskabob: (Cheerful grin)

[Spam]

[personal profile] cisskabob 2011-11-26 11:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[The thing with even the most clingy hugs, there comes a point where you either have to pull back and compose yourself, or you have to admit defeat and just start crying. Cissie's not ready to do that yet, so she takes a shaky breath and gives Shego a little squeeze before pulling back. She swipes at her eyes, but smiles brightly.]

I totally knew you could do it.

[Shego smirks and steps back, tactfully pretending not to notice Cissie wiping her eyes.]

Better than I did, apparently. I guess two years was about as long as I could deal with.
cisskabob: (Actually...)

[personal profile] cisskabob 2011-11-27 12:21 am (UTC)(link)
[Cissie appreciates the pretending. A lot.]

Hey, Sylar graduated. There's even hope for Arthas now.

[Joking helps, right? LET'S CHANGE THE SUBJECT!]

So--Gotham, huh?

[Spam]

[identity profile] gotgreenmagic.livejournal.com 2011-11-27 12:28 am (UTC)(link)
To start out, anyway. I figure if I'm gonna go somewhere and bust heads in an outlandish costume, then it might as well be in a world where they're already used to it.

[That makes Cissie laugh a little.]

Fair enough. You should have plenty of chances to do that there.

Yeah, I suspected as much. And hey, how else am I gonna judge your choice of boyfriends when you go home?

[personal profile] cisskabob 2011-11-27 01:29 am (UTC)(link)
[That catches Cissie a little off guard; she looks surprised, and takes half a second too long to laugh.]

Okay, okay. You know I'm not actually from Gotham?

[Spam]

[identity profile] gotgreenmagic.livejournal.com 2011-11-27 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I'm aware. But you live on the same plane of reality, and after taking that little detail into account, the trip to wherever you do live is....not that big a deal.

[Cue a slightly sheepish (and a little sad) smile.]

...Yeah okay, true.

So--you'll go to Gotham, and then to your world?

[Spam]

[identity profile] gotgreenmagic.livejournal.com 2011-11-27 02:01 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. I'm not gonna stick around, though. I just need to talk to my family, tell a few people they're still losers...then I'm done. I don't plan on going back there again.
cisskabob: (Thinky thoughts)

[Spam]

[personal profile] cisskabob 2011-11-27 02:43 am (UTC)(link)
[She nods, thoughtfully.] And then... you're coming back? Or going back to Gotham?

[Spam]

[identity profile] gotgreenmagic.livejournal.com 2011-11-27 02:50 am (UTC)(link)
Coming back, earning my retirement package, then Gotham. [She makes a vague gesture with one hand.] More or less.

[She laughs under her breath.] Ciss, if that's what passes as 'mushy' for you then I think we're gonna get on just fine.

[personal profile] peektuttut 2011-11-26 09:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Definitely. [Sylar was clingy about going home, he'd rather not do that to a new inmate right off the bat.] I need to let some people know.

[Private]

[identity profile] gotgreenmagic.livejournal.com 2011-11-26 10:27 pm (UTC)(link)
I got it.

[She's thinking of you bro, Shego will never have any fucks to give about hurting her inmate's feelings through vacations but she knows you care way more. :c]

I'm just hoping the Admiral is gonna smooth this over for me, I don't wanna get there and...'Excuse me ma'am, the hometown on your documentation doesn't exist'? Yeah.

I'll take a look when we get there. Did I ever tell you about my fake Uncle Eddie?

[Cool your jets bro, it's entirely sarcasm.]

Speaking of which, what's the policy on stealing from crooks? That's still on the okay side of antiheroism, right? Just so I've got some capital to work with.

Anyway. You could always sell one of those necklaces I gave you; you'd be set for life. [Did it come off as lighthearted, because it was supposed to be. :|]

If that'd be 'set for life', you have pretty low expectations of the kind of lifestyle I'm aiming for, Drake. And I'm not selling your jewelry.

Then I guess it's good for you that I'm not heading offshore until I've rebuilt my reputation as someone you don't wanna mess with. And who knows how long that'll take.

Could be a while. [He is legitimately concerned that she will treat it like her home and get hurt. Because her world sounds way less threatening than Gotham. :c] Just make sure you don't get an apartment in the Bowery.
