019 - It's very easy to take more than nothing

[notdreaming]

[ Backdated to the beginning of port ]

[ Kara is wearing her graduation outfit again, which to most people would be called her superhero outfit. She'll have you know it's the height of Kryptonian fashion and the proper attire for an ambassador on an alien planet. Also it's super comfy. She smiles and waves at the camera from a position high enough in the air to give a fantastic view of this port. ]

Hello, everyone. I just wanted to let you all know that I'm going out this port, so if anybody needs help or anything at all, all you have to do is shout. I won't be using this phone much.

Have fun!

[ Private to Debra and... Vergil ]

That goes especially for you two. Don't hesitate to call, alright?

[ Apparently Kara is sentimental about her temporary inmates. Who knew? ]

[walkthedarkpath]

I will not if I need your help. Likewise call if you need or want anything.

I am heading out myself as it were.

[Private]

[notdreaming]

Good! It should be a nice change of pace.

[Private]

[walkthedarkpath]

I have been a bit cooped up, I aim to change that.

Do not have too much fun. [ A lame attempt at a joke. But still a try!]

[Private]

[notdreaming]

[ Aw, that was downright cute. ]

There's no such thing. Fun is good for your health.

[Private]

[walkthedarkpath]

[ He arched a brow and just shook his head, trying not to look as amused as he was at that.]

So I keep hearing.

[Private]

[notdreaming]

It's been scientifically proven. [ You think she's kidding, but she's not. ]

[Private]

[walkthedarkpath]

....Since when? [ He's at least learned she is rather literal with science. He likes that about her.]

Private

[fuckton]

I think I want to get off of this thing too. Is that something I can do without you?

[A beat.]

No offense.

Private

[notdreaming]

None taken. A warden has to let you off the ship for port. If you'll meet me by the door I'll take you into the village.

Re: Private

[fuckton]

Alright. Sounds good.

Private

[notdreaming]

Do be careful, though. Chromie is right, sometimes port can be more dangerous than it looks.

Re: Private

[fuckton]

Well, considering the last port or whatever the fuck that was...

Private

[notdreaming]

[ She shakes her head. ]

It shouldn't be as bad as the caves. At least there's intelligent civilization here, and plenty of growing life to survive on.

Re: Private

[fuckton]

Hopefully not. I couldn't sleep in the dark for a week.

[And that's when she would have called Dexter if he hadn't been a fucking shit bag.]

[rhapsody_in]

Look at you, floating like a cloud! Tell me your shoes are winged.

[notdreaming]

If only. I have to make due with just the family crest.

[rhapsody_in]

Show me.

[notdreaming]

[ She tilts the camera down a little so Bleu can see the shield. ]

My parents designed this for my graduation.

[punched_hitler]

You must have pretty good hearing.

[He doesn't say it like a question, though, because based on what he has seen... you are pretty amazing.]

[notdreaming]

I could hear everything happening on this planet, if I wanted to.

I don't want to, though. It gives me a headache.

[ Yes. Yes she is. ]

[punched_hitler]

Ouch - no, I wouldn't want to, either. You must be pretty good at tuning it out.

[notdreaming]

I've had a lot of practice. And some help, too. [ When she was willing to accept it, anyway. ]

[punched_hitler]

I guess with a lot of practice, pretty much anything's achievable.

[Pretty much.]

It's good to know a guy can get in touch with the cavalry when he needs to, though. I promise, I'll save the screaming for emergencies only.

[notdreaming]

Rao, please do. You don't have to scream to get my attention.

[punched_hitler]

Don't worry - it's not a habit I plan to get into.

In the meantime, I do recommend ditching the phone. [He grins.] Some people are way too attached to these things.
