My best laid plans are in my other pants.

[onteamvoldemort]

WHO: The Office cast + bonus pizza and a church van
WHERE: The road.
WHEN: Tuesday (if that works with everyone!)
WARNINGS: Awkwardness and the special brand of drama that comes with this group. Also shenanigans.
SUMMARY: Since none of them know how to fight a big, ancient Evil (that's what she said), they get the hell out of Dodge. And get lost

LATE NIGHT CONVERSATIONS

[onteamvoldemort]

[While other people might be asleep. Jim can't avoid hearing awkward things being said.]

JIM + PAM

[onteamvoldemort]

[He just looks over at her from the driver's seat, exhausted. He knows it's important that they're out of the City, period, but this is just a huge mess. He's not sure exactly where to start, so.] You awake?

[pamnotpammy]

Mm, yes. Do you need me to drive for a little while?

[ curling up in the passenger seat didn't make for the most comfortable of naps, but it'd be passable, if he needed to sleep for a little while. ]

[onteamvoldemort]

[Jim shakes his head, glancing between the road and her with a smile. ]

Nah, I think I can go another hour. [He looks up in the rear-view mirror before back at her.]

This is crazy, right? Like really crazy.

[pamnotpammy]

No, it is. It's absolutely crazy.

[ she reaches over to take his hand, thread their fingers together and hold tight. ]

I kind of can't believe it's really happening.

[onteamvoldemort]

[Jim squeezes her hand, taking a second to look away from the pretty empty road.]

Yeah, can't say I really expected some big thing to come destroy everything.

[pamnotpammy]

Maybe everyone's just overreacting.

[ pam knows they're not but. still. ]

It might just be a small squid monster.

[onteamvoldemort]

I mean. I would be freaked out by a small squid monster and I would totally prefer a small squid monster over a huge [he briefly takes his other hand off the wheel to gesture at an invisible to-scale representation of said squid] monster death squid thing.

[Still, if the world's supposed to end in however many days, it only makes him more aware of making these days count, even if they're spent cooped up in a van with people who drive him crazy in such small quarters.]

[humanjuicebox]

[Pops his head up from the back, ALL UP IN THEY SPACE] I could drive, you know. Whenever you want. Just say the word.

[onteamvoldemort]

[Jim jumps at the sound of Michael's voice. Not at all expecting it in the slightest. He just shakes his head.]

I think I got it for a little while longer. [Because the thought of Michael driving scares Jim.]

[pamnotpammy]

[ alkgjdasfda michael ]

I thought you were sleeping?

[ it was quiet back there like two seconds ago what happened ]

[humanjuicebox]

I'm a light sleeper. [MORE LIKE CREEPER]

[onteamvoldemort]

[Yep, Jim was definitely thinking creeper.]

So. Uh. Michael, what do you think of the whole end of the world thing?

[humanjuicebox]

Let me ask you a question, Jimbo. If we're supposed to be superheroes, shouldn't we be back there - superheroing?

[onteamvoldemort]

Uh, I think we should leave that to the professional superheroes. [Because even though Jim could very well have an extremely useful superpower, killing big evil squids is not on his resume.]

andy & erin...???? (open to intruders omg this is so late)

[acahellyeah]

[ Andy's sitting up extremely straight, mildly uncomfortable because he is afraid to lean on anyone and also he has pizza boxes on his lap. He turns to Erin nervously, unsure if she's asleep or not, so he whispers. ]

Psst -- Erin, hey. Are you comfortable enough or should I scoot over, or something? Because I can move over, if you're cramped or something...
