Everywhere, All at Once

[doctorfatejsa]

Fate, finding mystic allies lost or fallen at every turn, reaches out his mind to ascertain the well-being of as many of his colleagues and compatriots as he can, as well as to advise the members of the Justice League and the Justice Society what's happened to date

"Travel between the worlds has become more difficult. You may find that to be a factor in some of the disappearances."

"With the Spectre gone mad, and evil powers gathering talismans of magic, have you considered the disposition of the Spear, Hector Hall?"

[doctorfatejsa]

"The Spear was tossed into the sun, Brotherless One. Beyond even my reach."

[grey_walker]

"And sealed against retrieval by a spell. With the fabric of magic torn asunder by Wotan's return, it may not be as secure as we would wish. It is a consideration."

[jla_goldenage]

"Yes," says Rose, distractedly. "And both a potential boon to Wotan, should it return to Earth ... and perhaps the only thing that can keep the Spectre at bay, should he escape the Green."

Her frown grows dark as she considers the damage the Spectre can conceivably do where he is.

"I don't know if we dare risk it."

[laughing_mage]

It's a pretty sore lot to save the world with in this room. Still he's done it before with less. Still, him, Gemma AND Tefe all in on something is a bit more Constantine curse than maybe it should have to handle...

Or it could be helpful as tits up as everythings gotten.

"You have that look Jonathan," says Rose, pulling herself out of her dour mood. "You're weighing odds, aren't you?"

[laughing_mage]

"It's what I do luv." He's rolling a silk cut through his fingers.

"We're mighty short on allies." Not that she doesn't know that, she can count up strengths the same as he can.

"Might be time for somethin' dramatic an stupid on our behalf."

[jla_goldenage]

"I think, Jonathan, that we are well into 'dramatic and stupid' territory."

She had settled herself onto a chair, letting other people do the talking and planning, telling herself that they're better at it than she is.

Next thing she knew her head was in her hand. She's a bit surprised at herself but tells herself she's just tired...being held hostage is hard work and all that. Then her world spins. Just a little and briefly but enough for her to blink widened eyes and grip the arms of her chair until her knuckles turned white.

She waits for it to pass, which thankfully it does, then shakes her head a bit before grumbling under breath about wanting a drink. She hopes the others are too preoccupied with making plans and scheming to have noticed as she makes for the bar and helping herself to a shot of scotch.

[tefe_holland]

She doesn't notice exactly what's going on but does see her making a beeline to the alcohol.

"You've been hanging out with Constantine too long."

[zatanna_z]

The hand that held the now empty shot glass is propped against her head so she glances at Tefe out of the corner of her eyes and chuckles with a pale smile.

"Probably."

Her eyes close as she takes a deep breath and swallows against what remains of her disorientation.

"They got a plan yet?"

[tefe_holland]

She frowns slightly.

"You ok?" She looks over at the other mystics.

"Not yet, I don't like the look on their faces though."

[laughing_mage]

He ignores Zee slamming down the glass on the bar, the great gamble this is his territory.

"The last thing they'll be expectin' is somethin' this stupid. It'll keep em busy long enough for you all t'play rescue squad for the spear. Just don't bollocks it up, not really wantin' my guts strewn over half of north america if he catches me."

[zatanna_z]

She's grumbling outloud before she even knows it.

"Something this redundant."

She draws a deep breath in through her nose before refilling the shot glass again. She's not going to react like he did, not like he did. Gee, she's gaining new mantras a lot today.

[laughing_mage]

Don't get him wrong, he doesn't want to do this but like he said before it's time for something shocking and stupid to keep the others off guard.

"Needs t'be done. An out of all of you I'm the one with the record to really piss him off." Putting spells on his dad tying him to a rotting cat, making sure he was bound to hell, demon blood and a million other small crimes the Spectre would love to punish.

[zatanna_z]

Bet he's feeling all kinds of self rightous about this. Bet he's thinking See? This is how I felt when you did it to me. Asshole.

Well she's pissed, yes, but she's not going to treat him like he did her. Dammit!

Granted she is leaning against the bar with her arms crossed and glaring at him.

[laughing_mage]

"Right, let's get this over with before I come t'me senses." He rubs his hands through his hair and lights up another silk cut.

He's not feeling self righteous, he's feeling more like losing his lunch but that'll pass as the adrenalin hits.

[zatanna_z]

She takes advantage of a moment of feeling steady and comes quietly up next to John, placing her hand on his shoulder.

[laughing_mage]

He puts his hand over hers, it's ice cold but that's the only outward sign right now of how he's feeling.

"You an Rose get me back there while the others are lettin' him out."

[zatanna_z]

Her own hand doesn't feel that warm what with the off an on disorientation she's been trying to hide.

"Sure, John."

Whether he likes it or not, she turns him by his shirt and pulls him into a hug.

"You're a dick." The words are mumbled against his chest.
