WHO: Kenzi and Gilbo
WHERE: Around
WHEN: 1/1; Late Afternoon?
WARNINGS: It's Kenzi and Gil, what could possibly happen? Probably some language.
SUMMARY: Kenzi's bored and going to drag Gil out to do things. He has no say in the matter. B[
FORMAT: Quickthings

[Kenzi's morning started off kind of shitty but she had no one to blame but herself. She drank waaaaaay too much the night before and was paying with it come early afternoon with a massive hang over. So she spent the first few hours trying to deal with that.

Eventually she felt well enough to get dressed and go out but what was she going to do while out? Other than get some delicious greasy food in her stomach, of course.

While she ate she though about what to do and eventually she decided she hadn't bugged Gil in a while. Once she was done with her meal she made her way to his place, it was too cold to just fly up to his window and wait so surprisingly she's at the door. Banging on it. If Gil doesn't answer quickly enough she'll start yelling as well.]

[She leans forward and reaches over to pat his hand.]

Gil, dude, they're fine. I know you already know this but you return to the exact moment you left. Worrying about it is kind of...pointless.

[She sits back and picks up her menu again.] You should try to enjoy the time you have here. Go crazy and do what you want. You won't remember any of it when you go home.

[ He looks at her hand on his. It's so easy to say he shouldn't worry, but there's no stopping it. ]

I've been through this already. [ Ten years without Oz. He knows he can never repeat that. ] If I wanted, I could have thrown this life away when the Nightray dukedom adopted me.

[ This is the life he's chosen. ]

You didn't see the video that Habit person made, did you?

A'ight. [She shrugs, not looking up from the menu until he mentioned the Habit video.]

I...yeah. I saw some of it. I couldn't really stomach much more than a little. Shit was brutal.

[ He pulls his menu closer, though he's still not very hungry anymore. ]

The girl I killed didn't come back. [ EXCEPT she did and he wasn't aware until later this month. :( ]

...That means she went home, right? [Because people don't stay dead here. That was the deal. If that changes...okay Kenzi change your train of thought before you panic.

The menu! She's just going to focus on the menu again.]

I don't know.

[ He can only hope. ]

The Sentry never came back either.

The Sentry?

[She's never going to figure out what she wants to eat.]

He was one of the superheroes here. Something happened to him in September... he attacked the City. [ Oh.

He stops then, realizing he's really ruining everything. ]

... Sorry. I should-- [ shut up at this point. ]

Oh...him. [Kenzi pales for a moment as she remembers her little run in with him.] He uh...he probably went home too.

[She turns back to her menu just as the waitress comes over to take their order.] I haven't decided yet but I'll have a Coke.

Just water. [ He does feel parched.

But he's watching Kenzi curiously. He's... certain some of the colour from her face faded just before. When the waitress is out of earshot, he asks: ] I'm sorry. I'm bringing up such heavy subjects.

[She shakes her head as she forces a smile.] It's nothing, I'm fine. So don't worry about it.

[She lifts her menu a bit.] Decide what you're gonna get yet?

[ Now he's really worried he screwed things up. ] Are you sure? You don't look well.

Uh... [ He takes a quick look at the menu. ] I guess I'll have the Greek salad for now.

Gil, I've been through a lot of rough shit so yeah, I'm fine.

[She scrunches up her nose.]

A salad? C'mon, live a little.

[A few moments later the waitress returns with their drinks and asks if they're ready. Kenzi orders some cheese fries with extra cheese and bacon because you can't go wrong with either.]

[ He makes a face. ]

Do you know how unhealthy that is?

Yup and that's why I eat it. [She grins before taking a sip of her drink.]

You'll get sick from it.

Haven't yet. [She sticks her tongue out at him like the classy lady she is.]

Hey! [ He jumps a bit at that. That's completely immature! ] Act your age!

I should say the same to you. You act like an old man. You're only a few years older than me.

Gonna start calling you Ol' Man Gilbert.

[ His cheeks glow. ]

I do not act like an old man!

So do. [She grin, snickering a bit.]

Seriously I know some really old Fae that act younger than you do.

How do I act like like an old man? [ He frowns. ] There are plenty of people who don't eat fast food in this world.

You don't try to have any fun. All work and no play makes Gil a dull boy and leads to stress and heart problems and all kinds of other shit. Granted...so does eating fast food bu--

[Speaking of food there's the waitress with it now.]

Oh yay, delicious greasy goodness! [She's digging in and forgetting all about what she was saying.] Seriously. Melted cheese is the best thing ever.

Playing is for children-- [ ERK.

ALL THE CHEESE.

He eyes it like it's something alien. ]

I think I'm getting a heart problem just looking at it!

Adults can have fun too. Why the hell do you think there's things like night clubs and amusement parks? Which by the way, most of those rides are made for adults.

[She snickers quietly as she chows down.]
