I11DT - Grabbing A Bite

"Oh. No, thank god. They called it 'teleporting' when I was in school. I like 'tunneling' better."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Wed Feb 27, 2013 3:01 pm

"Oooh, cool. I guess I can technically do that, but not really."

by **Michael Dodgson** » Wed Feb 27, 2013 3:04 pm

"At least you got nice wings outta the deal."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Wed Feb 27, 2013 3:19 pm

"They look nice, I guess, but I can't wear most of the shirts I want to wear, and they're a huge 'She's a mutant' sign. So I'm not super enthused."

by **Michael Dodgson** » Wed Feb 27, 2013 3:21 pm

"Well, I think they're awesome and other people should too. The shirt thing sucks though."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Wed Feb 27, 2013 3:24 pm

"Yeah. My closet is wall to wall halter tops." Mercy wrinkles her nose.

by **Michael Dodgson** » Wed Feb 27, 2013 3:41 pm

He regarded her for a moment, "I could comment, but I think that'd make me a creep."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Wed Feb 27, 2013 5:06 pm

Mercy chuckles. "You're not a creep unless you're a teacher."

by **Michael Dodgson** » Wed Feb 27, 2013 6:01 pm

"Well, I'll leave it at 'worse things you could wear'."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Wed Feb 27, 2013 6:09 pm

"True enough, but my back still gets cold. And anyway, no matter how good it looks, wearing the same thing every day is boring."

by **Michael Dodgson** » Wed Feb 27, 2013 6:19 pm

"I wear pretty much the same thing every day. Doesn't bother me."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Wed Feb 27, 2013 6:25 pm

"See, to me that just screams makeover."

by **Michael Dodgson** » Wed Feb 27, 2013 6:30 pm

"Yeah, that's not gonna happen."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Wed Feb 27, 2013 6:36 pm

Mercy giggles. "It was worth a shot."

by **Michael Dodgson** » Wed Feb 27, 2013 6:51 pm

He grabbed his empty glass. "Need something else to drink?"

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Wed Feb 27, 2013 6:56 pm

"Sure, just water is fine." She smiles at Michael. "Thank you."

by **Michael Dodgson** » Wed Feb 27, 2013 7:00 pm

Michael went to take a step and he vanished, reappearing near the drink counter. During the process, a hole into nothing appeared in both locations, but it was only around for the blink of an eye. He shook his head for a moment, chuckling. Then, he filled the glasses and repeated the process, setting her drink down in front of her. "There you go."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Wed Feb 27, 2013 7:16 pm

Mercy stares at the place where the hole was.

"Where... do you go when you do that?"

by **Michael Dodgson** » Wed Feb 27, 2013 7:23 pm

"Not sure. Always seems to be someplace different. A lot of pink is all I saw that time."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Wed Feb 27, 2013 7:26 pm

"Oh." Mercy seems relieved or disappointed, it's hard to tell. Then she realizes Michael is holding a water glass for her. She takes it awkwardly. "Uh, thanks. Now I really am jealous of your mutation."

by **Michael Dodgson** » Wed Feb 27, 2013 7:53 pm

"There was one time I saw a whole group of two-legged hippos."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Wed Feb 27, 2013 8:11 pm

"All I get is first degree burns. And sometimes second degree. You definitely win."

by **Michael Dodgson** » Wed Feb 27, 2013 8:17 pm

"Youch. Sorry to hear it."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Wed Feb 27, 2013 8:26 pm

"I wish I could learn to do it the way you do. The only place I can take a shortcut through is the place where this stuff comes from." Mercy produces a blob of inky black darkforce from her hand, which hovers there looking sinister and mostly spherical.

by **Michael Dodgson** » Thu Feb 28, 2013 8:48 am

"That place can't be pleasant, especially if it's burnin' you."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Thu Feb 28, 2013 12:11 pm

Mercy nods. "Yeah, I don't even know exactly what it's like. I just come out the other end remembering 'Ow'."

by **Michael Dodgson** » Thu Feb 28, 2013 12:15 pm

"I mostly get flashes of stuff and it never seems like it's the same thing twice. Some stuff is pretty frightenin' though."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Thu Feb 28, 2013 12:16 pm

"I'd still be up for yours." Mercy chuckles. "So I just never try to do that anymore. I just make this stuff and fly sometimes. How far can you go? Just to the next town? Or can you go like across the world?"

by **Michael Dodgson** » Thu Feb 28, 2013 12:22 pm

"If I know where I'm goin', I can go pretty much anywhere. Takes time though. Short tunnels are pretty quick, but the long ones take a while and usually I'm all done in by the time I've made the trip a couple of times."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Thu Feb 28, 2013 12:42 pm

"Huh, interesting. What's the furthest you've ever gone?"

by **Michael Dodgson** » Thu Feb 28, 2013 12:44 pm

"At my last school, they had me cross the Channel," he said. "I think they were afraid they wouldn't be able to find me if they had me practice farther away than that."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Thu Feb 28, 2013 12:46 pm

"You'll save a lot on vacation travel, that's pretty cool."

by **Michael Dodgson** » Thu Feb 28, 2013 12:53 pm

"One of these days maybe. Under supervision for now."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Thu Feb 28, 2013 12:54 pm

"Really? Even though you're in college?"

by **Michael Dodgson** » Thu Feb 28, 2013 12:56 pm

"Yeah. Got into a bit of trouble out of secondary school."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Thu Feb 28, 2013 1:03 pm

"Bummer. Well I'm sure you can get it sorted out."

by **Michael Dodgson** » Thu Feb 28, 2013 1:05 pm

"Long as I keep my grades up and stay out of trouble... elsewise... well I'd rather not think about that."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Thu Feb 28, 2013 1:12 pm

"It doesn't seem like they're all that strict here."

by **Michael Dodgson** » Thu Feb 28, 2013 1:17 pm

"No, but I don't think I'll be testing my boundaries any time soon."

by **Mercy Wilkins** » Thu Feb 28, 2013 1:22 pm

"You just need to make friends with the administration. Then you can do whatever."
