WHO: Lyra and Jason
WHERE: Starting on a random rooftop
WHEN: Late tonight
WARNINGS: Possible violence, language
SUMMARY: Lyra runs into Jason again.
FORMAT: Quick

[If someone had been looking down onto the rooftops of this particular part of town, and had also been able to see past illusions, said hypothetical observer would have seen a small teenage girl hovering above the rooftops with a pine marten either in her arms or on her shoulders, occasionally landing and looking around before moving on.

Lyra wasn't that far from her house. She'd headed out to patrol, and hopefully clear her head- what had happened to Vivi bothered her the more she looked into things.]

He thinks he's looking at a monster. D'you want to see it? [Lyra shifts her weight, then rests a hand on Pantalaimon, keeping her tone neutral. The offer to show him the monster is intended more as an offer to show off than as a threat.]
secondrate: (H: UNF. AK. MARRY ME.)

TRIGGER WARNING

No thanks, kid. [Jason shakes his head for added emphasis. His definition of a monster is a pedophile who gets out of jail, a rapist who dodges justice on a technicality; those are the true monsters. He crosses his arms and glances over at her.]

How long have you been doing this?

More than a year. Toph and I decided that if this place needed help, we'd give it. Besides, we'd both been through dangerous stuff before we came here. [Lyra lifts Pantalaimon up, and somehow, she looks older than she should be for a moment.]

We've actually done pretty well in this neighborhood.
secondrate: (H: Hop into my car now plz.)

[Jason knows that look, knows how that feels, and still just shrugs.]

That thing Toph?

[He didn't know whether or not he'd start seeing someone else wandering around with Lyra and felt suddenly and strangely protective before he shook it off.]

No, this is Pan- he's my daemon. [And she pronounces it the same as 'demon'.] Toph's a girl.

[Lyra straightens up, while Pan looks up at Jason with an expression that's suspicious, and far too intelligent to belong on an animal.]
secondrate: (H: So. What're you wearing?)

[personal profile] secondrate 2011-07-11 11:07 pm (UTC)(link)
[Demon, huh. The kid's involved in witchcraft. That's no small chunk of skills right there. He shrugs.]

Just like names with faces.

[Lyra's never going to be able to get away from people assuming she's some sort of witch, is she?]

You'll probably meet her sooner or later. [And Lyra makes a note in her head to tell Toph about this guy.]

So are you going to try to walk me home again tonight? Because I got other things to worry about right now.
secondrate: (H: Hop into my car now plz.)

[Probably not. But it's not Jason's place to judge that kind of thing.]

I'm not a glorified babysitter, kid. I'm here to do a job, too.

What, did you hear about something? Toph and I, we've gotten most of the worst stuff out of here. [Lyra doesn't normally care if other heroes patrol in the neighborhood, but if he's going to shoot people... Pantalaimon lets out a barely audible growl.]

Are you going to patrol around here a lot?
