[Action] Fading spark

Feb 08, 2011 11:11

[Ion's made a rare trip out to the shoreline. It may be an element that can kill her, but it's still nice to look at, and it's a quiet place to think. Something she really needs to do. Sitting on a large rock a bit of a ways from the calm wake splashing the sand, she hugs her knees to her chest and rests her head, sighing. It seemed that; the more ( Read more... )

[Cheer up emo kid. Don't mind the dog that's suddenly behind you.]

Welcome!

[That's...his favorite greeting. Even if it doesn't make much sense in this context. ...Not like he realizes this.]

[She turns. A talking dog? ...Wait, no, that's not a shock to her, considering her usual company.]

Welcome to where?

[Damn it, why do people keep asking this?! He doesn't have an answer and it just hurts his head.]

Just...welcome!

Oh.

[She manages a small smile. This little guy was just so fluffy, she can't help but be amused.]

What're you doing out here?

[One of these days Yakko'll quit seeming to appear out of nowhere right behind someone, but this isn't it. Especially not a good idea when it comes to doing this to people who should not be startled - e.g. sometimes jumpy superheroes with electric powers.

But that day is not today.]

Hello nurse!

[Sometimes jumpy is right. She's--well, jumped and sparks a bit as a precursor to potential electric fists as she whirls around and--]

Oh, it's you. Should've figured.

[She settles back down, patting down the stray bits of hair that got even more poofed from her static discharge and staring back out at the water.]

[He moves out from behind her, clasping hands briefly behind his back as he glanced from the ocean to the Ion. Something's definitely off.]

Ahhh-I'm not one to criticize, but isn't this similar to dangling a toaster over a bathtub? What're ya doin' all the way out here?

[Action] electricbrick February 8 2011, 19:36:00 UTC

[Her response is a bit bland, but there's a clear depressive tone to her voice.]

I'm far enough out it shouldn't be a problem. And, I came here to think. We don't have open bodies of water back home, just videos, and I've always liked looking at them...

[Man, why does everybody have to be so depressed? 'Cause here's a similarly blue bird (ahahaha) coming to sit next to you, Ion.]

... hey. What's got you down?

[Action] electricbrick February 8 2011, 20:03:27 UTC

[She gives a brief acknowledging look to Mordecai before resuming her entranced stare at the ocean.]

Eh...lots of things, I guess.

Re: [Action] regularbird February 8 2011, 20:41:49 UTC

I feel ya, Ion. [He sighs, lazily tracing a finger in the sand.]

[Action] electricbrick February 8 2011, 20:46:16 UTC

[There's a long silence before she speaks again.]

Do you ever feel like, no matter how hard you try, you just can't seem to do what's right?

Just what Ion wanted! herpeachparadox February 9 2011, 00:30:41 UTC

[ Momo smiled gently at her and poked her arm. ]

Hey there. You kay?

electricbrick February 9 2011, 00:44:21 UTC

Huh? Oh, uh. I'm...eh. I'm in a slump.

[She shrugs to emphasize her 'meh' attitude.]

herpeachparadox February 9 2011, 01:01:04 UTC

What's wrong?!
