Staying awake for nearly 48 hours was nothing new to Janet. She had been a graduate student, once, not too long ago, and there was a time right before her dissertations were due that she stayed awake for nearly five days on nothing but coffee grinds and a prayer. Everyone had just finished setting up for the carnival-- food stands, a stage, everything colorfully decorated, and some reporters hanging around-- and Jan, in all of her OCD glory was triple checking every piece of wood, nail, and screw.

It wasn't terribly large but there were a fair number of booths and people who couldn't wait to dunk, watch eat pie, or kiss some of their city's finest. Janet was pretty sure that every old lady in the city would give their meds and cane to have a chance to kiss Tony Stark.

Tiredness was starting to hit her but it was overwhelmed by anxiety. If anything went wrong, it was going to be completely on her. So far, so good but she didn't want to jinx it.

Jan took a sip of her eighteenth cup of coffee and said a little prayer to any deity listening.

[ Looks over at Lassiter and away from the swarm of men lining to kiss her. She was running out of lip gloss. ]

Alright there, Detective?

[His head perked up at someone addressing him and he turned to look at M. He had had some people, nice, kind-hearted citizens, but not a group on her level. Maybe if he had had lip gloss.]

I'm fine. Are your lips numb yet?

No, no. My stamina is far superior to most.

Are yours?

Lucky you.

My lips are fine and serviceable.

Serviceable, hm?

Why can't people just get him a cup of coffee to show that then jeez

[identity profile] lassiface.livejournal.com 2010-01-24 07:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes. They're not numb.

[He thought "serviceable" was a perfectly good term to use, stop looking at him like that.]

monet isn't that kind of girl

[ Monet looks at everyone like that. ]

That is good to know. I suppose, then, that you don't need the lip balm I brought with me.

Why would I want to share the lip balm you've use--

[He realised he was bitching about using someone's used lip balm when he's been kissing strangers.]

Nevermind. I'm good. Hopefully this hell will be over soon.
