wait, what? (arrival, ota)

Penelope Garcia sighed loudly with a huff at her desk. It wasn’t often she found herself in a foul mood, but she felt cranky. Yes, cranky was a good word for it. Why did the boy have to go and take things to another level? Things were good just the way they were, right? He always needed more. Kevin was absolutely the woman in this relationship,

Comments

Harry chuckled when he overhead the comment. It was something that he would have said and he appreciated the humor. At least he wasn't wearing his coat and he didn't have his wizard staff that was a plus right?

"Not a weird serial killer dream sequence or a LARP." Harry said with a little amusement in his voice. "Welcome to Haurvatat."

[hacklikethewind]

"Good thing it's not a LARP. I have no costume or spells on me. Bummer. I should always pack those. I've got a set of dice in my purse though. Always be prepared - no wait, that's the boy scout thing."

She looked at Harry. He didn't seem to be a serial killer. But she wasn't a profiler, and she couldn't access his online records at the moment. Gut reaction? Not a serial killer. That had to count for something.

"Haur-a-what? Are there clowns here? Because, buddy, I don't do clowns. At all. Not even a picture of a clown. Just talking about them is making me itchy."

[drsmartass]

"We have table top games here at the comic store." Harry pointed out happy to have know that a) she knew what a LARP was and b) she had dice.

"No clowns but you did wander into the Twilight Zone." No lie there, pretty good explanation. "It's a place where we get pulled into from our lives supposedly for a lesson, but no one knows that for sure."

[hacklikethewind]

"Comic store? Be still my beating heart. You are the ray of sunshine to this weirdness, Mr. Tall, Dark, and Handsome."

She adjusted her glasses out of nervous habit. Twilight Zone? Not really her style, but she could make it work. "A lesson? Fantastic. I just broke up with my boyfriend. Am I supposed to learn that boys are weird and smell like pee?" She snorted at that. "Oh well. Care to show me around, my snarky stranger? I'm Penelope, by the way."

Kit hadn't actually been the one to find a new arrival in, well, ever. But he'd been out of coffee--sacrilege--and had gone to the cafe as he needed fuel to write for the day. Coming back into the hotel, he was lost in his thoughts about just what he needed to finish the play. School was starting back soon, and it would be best to have the draft finished by then.

He heard the girl's voice in just enough time to not run into her and spill his decadant creation that was supposed to be coffee.

"Pray pardon." He bit back the words. "I didn't see thee there." Right. He was fine when focused, but fell back into ingrained patterns of speech when not thinking about it.

Penelope blinked at first. Something about this man-child reminded her of Reid. Probably the boyish looks.

"Hey, it's alright," she said, trying not to stare at him. "You okay there, Cutie-pie?"

[his_ganymede]

Kit blinked, as well, at the "Cutie-pie," but then flashed her a charming smile. "I'm fine. Just was lost in thought." She really had seemed to come out of nowhere, and he remembered her words he'd barely noted before almost mowing into her. "Hast thee...Have you just arrived?"

If not, he'd just look a bit more foolish than he did already, he supposed.

[hacklikethewind]

"Apparently so. I was in my geek paradise then... here." She furrowed her brow. She played a lot of MMORPG's, and this felt like something out of one of them. Or maybe one of her graphic novels. Either way it was weird, and not necessarily her flavor of weird.

"I'm not a thee, hot stuff. I'm Penelope. Who are you?"

Derek was out for a walk, with Clooney who was sniffing everywhere. It's when Clooney picked up on something Derek assumed was an animal by the way he took off that had Derek running to keep up. That's when he saw her, and there was no mistaking his babygirl. "Not some weird serial killer sequence Babygirl."

[hacklikethewind]

Penelope's eyes grew wide. "My Prince! You're here! You are actually here, in my wacko dream scenario. ...which, baby, I admit it's not the first time, but usually I've had a glass of wine first. And you're usually in chaps."

She took a deep breath. Okay. This was apparently real.

"Sugar-pie, you're going to explain this to me so I don't freak out, right? Because, I'm a little bit freaking out here."

[stormsin]

"Chaps huh?" He chuckled softly at that and shook his head. How to explain this. "Well we are in Haurvatat, some wacked out village in some sort of pocket dimension. We can't leave until we learn a lesson."

[hacklikethewind]

"Pocket dimension? That's my lingo, my love, not yours. It sounds all weird, yet sultry when you say it. Do it again!"

She shrugged and made something of a sigh sound. "I learned a lesson right before I got here. Well, had an epiphany. Stood my ground. Something like that. I don't need to learn another one."
