Hey guys!

Uh, does anybody know where the kitchen is? Little Rock and I are taking care of Tallahassee's - son? I think? Don't you guys have real names? And he'd like to eat, and just asking seems faster than trial and error, so...yeah.

[Brief pause.]

Oh, everyone can hear this, right? My name's Kim Possible, I'm here for Shego. Although that doesn't really seem to make any sense.

Comments

"Well, this technically isn't Shego... I can speak with her. Kinda'."

[acid_rayne]

You're...

OK, seriously, what's up between you two? She said a few things, here and there, but I never got the full story.

Shego may break the WALL OF SILENCE to bitch you out when she recalls this taking place. :c

[gotgreenmagic.livejournal.com]

There's not much of a story to tell? She kept working for guys who wanted to take over the world, I kept stopping the world from being taken over...there was conflict. Often.

...

Are you a friend of Shego's or something? Is that even possible?

One day, they'll have to!

[acid_rayne]

We were more

It's complicated. She confided in me a few times, is all.

Hey, is it true there's no such thing as an anti-hero in your world?

[gotgreenmagic.livejournal.com]

She confided in you? Is this the same Shego we're talking about?

...an antihero's like someone who doesn't really like people but saves the world and stuff anyway, right? I guess Shego kinda did that back when she was a superhero. Her brothers said she was just as cranky back then as she is now, anyway.

[acid_rayne]

God damn it, she said they didn't exist where she comes from... Now you're telling me she basically was one?

[gotgreenmagic.livejournal.com]

Well, I don't know. I think she only did it to keep her brothers in line, and after fighting evil for a while she figured that she liked evil more. She had a costume and a tower to fight crime from and everything, that seems kinda like regular hero stuff.

[acid_rayne]

Ugh... So, it's basically a thrill-seeking thing for her?

[gotgreenmagic.livejournal.com]

No, I think she's pretty evil. But it's not like we ever grabbed a soda and talked it over or anything.

[acid_rayne]

She sounded kinda' disillusioned, to be honest. I think the upshot of it was that nothing really... Appealed, anymore.

Whatever you do, don't leave her a note which blows sunshine up her ass. She'd probably hate it, if I know her. Not that I'm saying you would, but she kinda' described you as... That way inclined.

[gotgreenmagic.livejournal.com]

Oh, I wasn't gonna leave her anything. I don't think she'll even want to know I've been in her room.

[acid_rayne]

Maybe... I figure you've got some sorta' business being here, though.

Just out of interest, aside from the opportunity to clobber you over the head (or melt it off), what does get through to her?

[gotgreenmagic.livejournal.com]

I don't know. We only ever met on a clobbery kinda basis...I mean, except for one time, but she wasn't really herself?

[acid_rayne]

She's an enigma, that's for sure...

I half-expected you to turn up in a miniature cape and set about trying to 'right wrongs' in a little self-righteous puff of smoke or whatever.

[gotgreenmagic.livejournal.com]

I'm just visiting. And you guys are in jail already, I don't know if there's much more righting that I can do.

...

Is she...okay?

[acid_rayne]

Hey! Warden, here!

For what it's worth, I think she likes this place more than home. Maybe she'll stay. I tried getting her to gain a sense of responsibility over people she's injured, but she's still working on the... Conscience thing.

[gotgreenmagic.livejournal.com]

Sorry! You're friends with Shego so I figured

But yeah, um, good luck with that.

[acid_rayne]

Well, if we never meet again... Or if she does go back and remember what went on here, the name's Rayne.

It's been educational.
