holy guacamole it's foggy nelson!

 "Excuse me." Bumped past someone. What? He's preoccupied with trying to find out where he is exactly. The seats at the forum seem like a good place to crash. This is what he gets for venturing out to a fancy schmancy coffee shop that Marci picked out. The door should have lead to the bathroom. 

Should have.

This.

Wait.

Shit.

Is it too late to hide? It's probably too late to hide.

Better smile. Smiles are good. Maybe, if she's extremely lucky, he's just stumbled out of Josie's and she can get him home and he won't realize...

"Only when I'm really, really lost." Not freaking out here no nope not at all.

Yes they are. :D

"You have no idea." She should tell him. Should she? Should she call Matt? Wait this is going to be a hug. Okay.

Okay. She can do hugs. And she likes Foggy, that makes it easier the first time. She's kind of good at these things when she relaxes. "We should get you home."
brave_heart_verity: (not so sure about this)

[personal profile] brave_heart_verity 2016-03-25 04:11 am (UTC)(link)
No judging. She's hugged zombies. It's been worse. And he's awful cute in his suit and tie.

"Um. Yes. Have you been to Josie's recently?" Ver will take his arm and try to steer him toward the portal Matt showed her. Same portal? Probably not. Good enough? Definitely. "What're you doing Uptown anyway?"
brave_heart_verity: (cautiously optimistic)

[personal profile] brave_heart_verity 2016-03-25 04:21 am (UTC)(link)
There are so many things Foggy has yet to learn about the woman he's only met once before. Funny how that works.

The suit leaves his soul wonderfully intact. But the secret's in his hair. Like Samson.

"Oh, I think we'll be heading back to Josie's soon, yeah," she agrees. One or maybe both of them are going to need lots of cheap drinks when he realizes what's going on. And she can't distract him from it forever.

"I've been good. Fine. Busy. Museums don't just build themselves, did you know that? There's like, stuff involved. Professional stuff."

[personal profile] brave_heart_verity 2016-03-25 04:56 am (UTC)(link)
Foggy has no idea just how magical this might get. On the other hand, it might be reassuring for him; when he knows she can keep Matt from bleeding out, he might be able to sleep at night.

His secrets, and his hair, are safe with her. Can't make any promises about Marci.

"It's... definitely something." She will neither confirm nor deny that she likes it. It's not the worst bar she's seen, but... it's a little scary. Loud and crowded and not the sort of place she's comfortable in. She's fragile, Foggy, there's a reason Matt treats her like she's made of spun sugar. But that's a story for another day.

"I have no idea, but I'm sure some pretentious twit has done it. We're not lacking for stuff to put in, we just need a place to put it all. And architects are moody."
brave_heart_verity: (distasteful)

[personal profile] brave_heart_verity 2016-03-25 03:21 pm (UTC)(link)
D&D, fairy tales, Game of Thrones... really, lots of things could have helped. And here, all he has is Verity. Poor schmuck.

She's got nothing against Marci, really, but easing her into meeting new people she has to be nice to is generally a good strategy. The jumpiness is just part of the reason.

"An art museum." She'd been preparing to talk about forever, or at least until she got him back to the Kitchen, but then he had to go and ask that didn't he? Sigh. "We're... Okay. I know this is going to sound insane. We're in a place that's in-between realities. It's called the Nexus."
brave_heart_verity: (concerned)

[personal profile] brave_heart_verity 2016-03-26 04:00 am (UTC)(link)
People who want to protect their families from the bears and wolves in the world. Foggy could stand to look at people a little more critically sometimes. He's a lawyer ffs.

Ver and Marci will sort themselves out. Marci pokes, Ver snarks, it'll be the beginning of a terrifying friendship for all the boyfriends. Not even just theirs, because they might give lessons.

"Okay... let's start at the beginning. There are multiple realities. An infinite number. You know the theory that every time you make a choice, every possible outcome of that action happens somewhere? It's kinda like that. This is the place in-between those places."

Hide the tortilla chips.

It's a common condition, around here.

*The remark comes from a tall woman passing by in some kind of blue garment that fits her like a second skin from the neck down. She pauses, moved by a merciful impulse.*

Take a minute to breathe, then follow what you remember backward to the last time you were somewhere familiar.

That's a good question. Why *do* they call them nachos?

[personal profile] onemorebounty 2016-03-25 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
I wouldn't know what you're used to, but you've got the look common to the newly-arrived.

*She's not in a hurry to go anywhere, and he's made her curious.*

Why would you be used to it?
onemorebounty: (Default)

Wah wah wahh~

*She glances in the direction he indicated. It looks like she might be the one to drop this bombshell.*

New York? You're not in New York anymore.

*She occasionally applies her demolitions expertise to conversations.*

Don't tip your waitress, her balance is already chancy on those heels. Try the veal.

You left the city, planet, and universe you know. You're somewhere between all possibilities.

*She gives a slight shrug.*

It happens.

[personal profile] onemorebounty 2016-03-25 01:35 pm (UTC)(link)
*She lifts a hand to point up, toward one of the places where the Nexus landscape folds back on itself and there's some upside-down city hanging in the sky overhead.*

[personal profile] onemorebounty 2016-03-26 04:23 am (UTC)(link)
*She gives a slight shake of her head.*

At some point, in your Facet, on your planet, you encountered a spatial instability--a door, a path, a wrong turn--that brought you to this place, outside your or any other universe. Objectively speaking, it happens all the time.
