[ It's dark; the communicator's feed looks over the City from a high altitude, the buildings lit up below even though it's nearly 4 AM. A shape to the side moves; it's the Sentry's leg, unfolding to hook over the edge of the rooftop he's sitting on. ]Do you ever wonder if something will happen if you don't do anything... and just let it happen?

Do you mean a good luck charm or something?

[couldbeavoided]

Something like that. Whatever it is.

[sweetvalleygirl]

They sell rabbit's feet still, I saw some at the store. I could get you one. Maybe that'll help keep the bad things away.

[couldbeavoided]

Bad things happen. It's the sitting around wondering about them part that gets me.

[couldbeavoided]

Gets you how? It bothers you, or it worries you?

[ks_city_shuffle]

I don't bite my nails.

How can you get anything done if you don't think about consequences?
