to tie up loose ends to make amends

WHO: [livejournal.com profile] supertorso & [livejournal.com profile] battothefuture
WHERE: Terry's apartment.
WHEN: Sometime around today-ish? Today being Thursday.
WARNINGS: ... Possibility of some violence.
SUMMARY: Kara and Terry were gonna try again after their failed notadate. But then he got exPorted and never called, so she stops by. SHIT HAPPENS.
FORMAT: Quick to start, can do whatever after.

[ It starts like this: Terry and Kara parted ways and agreed to try again for coffee. But there was never a 'Hey, how does tomorrow sound' from his end and Kara was just this side of shy and worried about this whole friendship with a civilian thing that she wasn't sure she could call him about coffee.

But when she'd seen neither hide nor hair of him on the Network for a while, she got a little worried. She wasn't sure picking up the phone and going 'You're not dead, right?' was the kind of thing one did, so she didn't act on it, instead keeping eyes and ears out should he show up anywhere.

On the other hand, though, if she was just patrolling and happened to be in the area, she could stop by and knock on his door, right? Just... checking in. She could say she lost his number, wanted to make sure he and the dog were okay. And wanted to see the dog again. Yeah, that would work.

Which is how she ends up standing in front of his door, wishing terribly her x-ray vision could penetrate lead. One hand raises and knocks gently, so as not to... accidentally break anything. Because that would be bad. And she'd have to buy him a new door. ]


Terry? You home?

[ Wait a little bit, then knock again, a little harder this time. Maybe it was too soft of a knock. Just because she had superhearing... ] Terry?

[ More knocking. She pauses again and then knocks just a little too hard, knocking the door off its... surprisingly sturdy hinges. ]

Oh, crap! Ohcrapohcrap! Terry! If you're home, I'm sorry I broke your door. ... if you're not, I'm sorry for breaking and entering to fix your door...

[ She moves the broken door aside so she can step into the apartment and... freezes. Because that— that stuff can't be what she thinks it is. It just can't be. ]

Lady, actually. Though she doesn't really act like it.

[Well that seems like the best idea]

[A little grin]

Isn't that supposed to come a few years down the road?

Clearly you are underestimating how intimidating I can be. I won't have to touch 'em.

[personal profile] battothefuture 2011-01-15 09:54 pm (UTC)(link)
If they're that intimidated, they've got guilty consciences. Mission accomplished.

[Dealing out money and stuff! Lady ventures over to investigate.]

You tell me. You were the one who started the metaphor.

[personal profile] battothefuture 2011-01-15 10:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, I'm blaming you for that.
battothefuture: (terry ☞「someone on the internet's WRONG」)

[personal profile] battothefuture 2011-01-15 10:20 pm (UTC)(link)
[He -- somewhat gingerly -- settles himself, as Lady starts knawing on Kara's fingers.]

Something like three and a half years now.

Sixteen.

You're going to teach her bad habits, you know.

It's-

I picked up the suit when my old man got murdered, and just... it's what I wanted to do. And it's what Gotham needed. Things are still bad in the future.

And yeah, I know.
battothefuture: (terry ☞「smile! It confuses people」)

[personal profile] battothefuture 2011-01-16 02:30 am (UTC)(link)
[He smiles a little but doesn't want the conversation to go depressing again, so tries to keep it light.]

Yeah, maybe. Anyway, that's when I broke in and swiped the suit. I guess Wayne decided that not getting myself killed was good enough to let me keep it.
battothefuture: (terry ☞「a threesome you say?」)

[personal profile] battothefuture 2011-01-16 02:38 am (UTC)(link)
[The smile turns into a grin.]

It's not the only prerequisite, but it's a helpful start. And somebody had to do it - I guess I had a few reasons to be the one.

[This is a slightly more uncomfortable topic of discussion, since Terry isn't terribly proud of his past, but he doesn't have a real reason to hide it either.]

I used to be a pretty bad kid. Broke my folks' hearts, broke some laws. I guess I'm atoning.

What about you? I know the basic story, but....
