Annette was on a mission. She had homework for John Crichton's class: How to Annoy your Teachers, and seeing Deadpool in the park was just a lucky break. Imagine that.
Problem was, she had never met him. She knew who he was, listened to him on the radio, but she had never met him.
She wondered what he had been reading? But that did not deter her from her objective. Nope.
"I was thinking, you know, because I've seen you around, walking here and there, doing this that and the other - well, I was thinking that someone probably hasn't told you something that you very much need to know."
Setsuna was going for a walk, thinking about how she was totally not a lesbian, thank you very much, and trying to figure out what that whole thing with Chupacabra cabin was and why she felt the need to curse Asuna Kagurazaka some more. She gave a nod of greeting to Deadpool when she passed, trying to remind herself that it was rude to pry into other people's business, but her eyes were lingering on the book in his hands, trying to figure out what it was. Perhaps some interesting materials on mercenary work that he'd implement in class next week?
Probably very interesting material. But Setsuna still couldn't quite get a good angle to...wait, there we...
Okay, that was so not mercenary stuff. Well, it could be, if you were that kind of merc, but Setsuna did not want to think about Deadpool being that kind of merc.
"What the hell are you reading?" she asked. "And why am I asking a question I don't think I really actually want answered? Research for research sake? You've started writing slash fanfic on the internet and you're really big on making sure it's all realistic? Any answer that does not suggest that this is for your own personal benefit will work, because, oh my God, you said you were drunk when you did that!"
"I can find information like this online in slash fanfic?" He shook his head. So not the point! "I was drunk! And now I'm less drunk and contemplating getting drunk again."
"Professor Deadpool!!!" There was an orange and highly-caffeinated bullet headed straight for him. Lucky him! "I haven't seen you in forever and how are you!? Are your feet okay!? Tidus said he was sorry about that later and what did you think of him, anyway?! Tidus, I mean! And we took him back home and he and Yunie are back together and it is so great and nothing happened in Spira so don't kill Jude! Except we got to go boarding in Macalania and things like that and it was so great and I brought you a gift but they made me check it in to the weapons locker and I guess that kinda spoils it but really you didn't think I'd get you a decorative spoon or something did you? Besides there's more to it than that and hey! Did you really get married!? You didn't tell me! And I haven't seen you in ages! And we pulled a mutiny this morning and how are you!?? HI!"
Rikku clapped her hands excitedly. "I'm glad! And really?! Aly said you were. Oh! I'm in her class on blowing things up. And I have a class on how to steal things and another one on annoying teachers. And I'm sorry I didn't get to take your class on mercenary-ness? But I figured I could just pester you for the information and that way I'd get to take the other classes I wanted, too, you know?"
"It's not a toaster. It's ... I should go back and get it. You have to see it. But I can get you a toaster anyway. And the mutiny was ... uh, did you hear about the last one? When we crashed Hades' office and decorated it and some of the people were naked and all that?" She was already giggling.
"Aly likes to lie a lot about me and Arashi," Deadpool told her seriously. Especially when it came to things like UST that might exist but that didn't mean they had to let her know she was right about anything. "And don't you worry, you'll get to do something for my class eventually."
"A non-toaster is okay." (As long as it's a panini press. Paniiiiniiii. Yup. Still fun.) "Naked? Do I have to hurt people?"
Xander, heading home from J,GoB, couldn't resist peeking as he passed the guy in the full-body longjohns. It wasn't that fullbody longjohns could really surprise him anymore, not in Fandom, or that he couldn't resist peeking at people's books most of the time; he wasn't Willow. But when you combine the two...
"Huh. And if you're doing it right?" He folded the corner of that page to talk to Arashi about maybe. If he got to have a bottle of vodka first. And maybe some rum.

Hey, this could work for her benefit.
Approaching him slowly, she said, "Hi."

"Hello," Deadpool said warily. If she made a comment about the wedding and didn't have a toaster, there might be trouble.

The flailing increased the more she continued.

"I'm good, I'm not married, but I would like to get a toaster if you wanted to buy me a not wedding present, what kind of mutiny, and yay!"

And stared. "That looks kinda painful."

Deadpool watched the strange little frog go. Maybe he was a relative of those turtles he had been hearing so much about.
