[Cissie looks tired. She hasn't been sleeping well, but she's been trying to cope by being positive and MAN, you are all cramping her style. She'd be typing this, but her arm is broken and she's tired of typing one-handed.]

...Is it such a terrible thing, to just be grateful to be alive and out of that place?

Sure, uh. Of course assuming that it's within my ability to do, which. I'm pretty sure you wouldn't ask unless it was, but. Uh, yeah, shoot.

[private] notarrowette June 24 2010, 03:31:21 UTC

I'm pretty sure it is. I mean, it's not a big deal and I kind of figure you would anyway, but, uh... you know that thing we talked about while I was really drunk? I was kind of hoping you could maybe... keep that between us.

[private] gammapulsed June 24 2010, 03:37:00 UTC

[Dot. Dot. Dot.]

You mean all that talk about. Being a superhero and all that? With the capes and everything? That... Wasn't just you being affected by the flood?

[private] notarrowette June 24 2010, 03:42:10 UTC

[Dot. Dot. Dot. in return, Bruce.]

Uh. No. Not exactly. More like my saying it at all was thanks to the flood.

[private] gammapulsed June 24 2010, 03:52:18 UTC

.......Oh. That's. ...Huh.

[AWKWARDEST SILENCE EVER. Or at least for today.]

Uh, and of course not, I wasn't going to, er. Broadcast any of that. I mean, especially now. Sorry, it's not you or anything it's just. I'm very not used to any of that, um. Hero thing. Except in like. Very, very, very film reels. And comic books.

[private] notarrowette June 24 2010, 04:24:58 UTC

[Well now Cissie's just going to laugh a little, because you are adorable.]

It's okay, really. I didn't think you were going to, I just... wanted to check. ...Funnily enough, I've been told where I come from is a comic book for some people. Which is pretty weird. I mean, I'm used to the hero thing since I grew up with it, but along with the heroes come the villains, you know? I wouldn't mind not having those.

[private] gammapulsed June 24 2010, 04:47:21 UTC

Oh, well. I'm sure that if you were somehow in a comic book, it'd be very popular? That is. I mean, you seem nice enough, and I'm sure your, uh. Hero stuff is interesting enough. I mean, I know if it were me, I wouldn't want to read about it. If I were someone else reading about me.

...Er.

But yeah, I can definitely see that being the, er. Tradeoff in the negative.

[private] notarrowette June 24 2010, 05:16:52 UTC

I'm not sure it's so much me as my world and my friends, honestly. I didn't do the hero thing very long, or even especially well. But thank you. And yeah, it would be really weird to read about my life. ...Well, that part of it. There have been articles and like, an unauthorized biography that's mostly fiction, but that's all about the Olympics anyway.

[private] gammapulsed June 24 2010, 05:33:31 UTC

Right, I forgot about that whole. Olympics thing. I was never really big on the whole... Sports thing myself, uh. Obviously.

[private] I AM USING THIS ICON JUST BECAUSE I WANT TO. SO THERE. notarrowette June 24 2010, 06:16:48 UTC

Don't worry about it. I never was either. ...I'm still not, aside from the obvious. Honestly, it always felt weird. Being involved at all. I mean, people spent their whole lives training and trying to get there and devoting everything to it and I just kind of... stumbled into it. I mean, I definitely trained enough, it was just--supposed to be training for something else.

[private] BAW TINY CISSIE. gammapulsed June 26 2010, 02:40:15 UTC

Training for. Superhero-ing.

[SORRY, HE'S STILL WRAPPING HIS BRAIN AROUND THE IDEA. Because sorry, Cissie, you are just. No Cap America.]

[private] notarrowette June 26 2010, 05:38:41 UTC

[It's okay, Bruce! She's amused. And no, no she is not. ...Cap who, Marvel-man?]

Yeah, pretty much. I mean, I took a lot of classes. Mom homeschooled me and everything. ...Her priorities weren't exactly normal.

[private] gammapulsed June 28 2010, 01:19:23 UTC

[Captain America was this biiiiig hero dude who led the Invaders against Nazis in WWII before becoming a popsicle. And is basically the one big superhero of the Marvel Universe at Bruce's canonpoint, and he totally had a lunchbox of him. Like a dork.]

Well, maybe not, but. I suppose it could have been worse. I mean, minus the shoving into a somewhat dangerous job field, she still cared about you? Right?
