Yesterday was a big day for Matt Parkman. He met Captain James T. Kirk, Mickey Mouse, shapeshifters, bouncers with tiny elephants, and not one, but two Ghostbusters along with a dead girl far too nice to be a zombie ( Read more... )

Jack's walking in from the lake, blah blah emo OOM.

He grabs a beer, lights another Malboro (he's going through them so fast) and scans the bar.

Girl, girl, guy, girl, thing, not sure what that is--woah hey. That guy? This guy right here? Looks a lot like...nah.

Nontheless, Matt has a spinal surgeon staring up at him.

"No, it's tropical." He frowns. "The Others kept the polar bears locked up away somewhere."

A beat.

"I'm not making this up. I wish I were."

hearthethoughts October 11 2006, 19:47:15 UTC

"Polar bears on a tropical island."

It could be worse. They could steal brains. They could do horrible things to small children. They could have weird alter egos.

"....Okay. For reasons entirely my own?" Matt really wants a beer. Like-bad. Jack might notice him staring, "...I believe you. As...weird as that might sound."

hero_jack October 11 2006, 19:54:00 UTC

...Weeeell. :P

"You want a beer?" He notices the stare. It's one he often has.

hearthethoughts October 11 2006, 19:57:10 UTC

"...Yes."

Please. Seriously.

Matt tilts his head back to the bar, "-What've they got on tap?"

hero_jack October 11 2006, 19:58:47 UTC

"Whatever you want, probably." He eyes Bar. "What will you have? I'll buy."

hearthethoughts October 11 2006, 20:03:45 UTC

"...Millers?"

Beer.

"-Thanks man. I'll owe you one." Matt holds out a hand, "'m Matt."

hero_jack October 11 2006, 20:05:17 UTC

He grabs a waitrat and orders one for him. "Jack. Where you from?"

hearthethoughts October 11 2006, 20:12:54 UTC

"-Los Angeles." Matt points to the badge, "-LAPD. 2006."

In a universe where people have superhero powers.

"You?"

hero_jack October 11 2006, 20:17:01 UTC

He grins. "Los Angeles. Spinal surgeon for St. Sebastian Hospital. 2004."

hearthethoughts October 11 2006, 20:21:07 UTC

"You're kidding."

He knows that hospital! "-My Brother-in-Law's kids were born there!"

Pause, "-Either there or St. Lukes. No. It was St. Sebastian." Matt remembers. Elena woke him up in the middle of the night to drive down there since she didn't want her sister to be alone.

hero_jack October 11 2006, 20:24:02 UTC

"Cool." Jack grinned. "My dad and I were top surgeons there."

The grin fades a little. "But he died. And I crashed. So...yeah."

hearthethoughts October 11 2006, 20:40:40 UTC

"-Hey man, talking about stuff like that.."

Matt gets it, "-Least your dad was around." Joleen Parkman raised her son without a father figure, "...Plane crash or not. I'm sorry to hear about that."

hero_jack October 11 2006, 20:46:58 UTC

"He was an asshole." He shrugged. "Almost wish he hadn't been around."

hearthethoughts October 11 2006, 21:04:32 UTC

Matt snorts, "-Every kid thinks their dad is an asshole. I can't blame um. Half the time-"

He nods to Jack, "Half the time I arrest kids? Their fathers bail them out. But at the same time half those fathers are also major hollywood players so they don't give half a shit that they're sons and daughters are doing drugs and sneaking into movie theaters."

Okay, the last part didn't come out that cool. Matt covers it up with a long sip of the beer in front of him.

hero_jack October 11 2006, 21:06:32 UTC

"I'm a grown man. I still think my father was an asshole." Jack mutters. "Abusive relationship and not the best role model."
