Week 3DT: Stan's place, post-hobos

Postby Stan Bowen » Wed Jul 15, 2009 8:10 pm

Stan was back in his former domicile, clearing out the remaining belongings.

However, in between packing, he was scanning the area with a series of handheld equipment.

"Hmm.." he muttered, looking at the readings generated.

"What is it?" Amanda asked, from where she was shifting boxes.

"I'm just getting some interesting readings.. there are definitely signs of teleportation here."

Stan put down the device, and moved back to filling up a cardboard box.

Stan nodded.

"There are signs of spatial distortion.. either someone used a room-sized Space folding apparatus, and a commandeered nuclear plant to power it, to get into my little apartment.."

He paused, chuckling.

"Or some superpowered being has a fairly lame grudge, or fairly lame goals. I'm going with the latter. It was possibly one of the hobos.. I'll need to check."

"One of the hobos would make the most sense." Amanda said, trying to keep her tone neutral.

"I guess.. I don't know what a homeless mutant from London would pick my home, of all places, to squat in with his buddies. It's one hell of a coincidence."

Stan picked up the scanner, checking the readings again.

"i'm going to make a few calls, see if I can get a lead on known superbeings with this powerset."

Wordlessly, Amanda pulled out her phone and handed it to Stan "I think I've got a good idea about who it was." she said, sounding ashamed for not telling him sooner.

Raising an eyebrow, Stan took the phone and looked at the pic Amanda had cued up, and the name of the person who sent it.

He looked at Amanda, before going back to the phone for one more look.

"She sent it to me, after she'd done it." Amanda said, in answer to his wordless question "I didn't know what she was planning."

Stan handed back the phone.

After several long moments, he spoke.

"Why? Did I fight her parents years ago, or something? Did I leave her coffee cup unwashed in the break room?"

Stan was pacing, his voice rising.

"How? How was leaving me with a broken lease and a thousand dollar cleanup bill doing you a favor?"

After a moment, Stan stopped, following the path.

"Wait.. she did this to drive me out of my place? And into yours?"

"I was telling her that I wanted to ask you to move in with me.....once my lease ran out in December." Amanda said "I was nervous and....I'm sorry. I had no idea she'd try something like this."

Stan took a seat in a damaged easy chair, bringing a hand to his forehead and stroking his temples.

"I'm sorry." Amanda said again, sitting down on the arm of the chair "I should have told you right away."

Stan kept up with the rubbing of his temples.

But after a few more moments, he smiled, chuckled, then laughed.

Stan looked up, grinning.

"She was right. She was crazy, and destructive, and insane, but it worked."

Pulling her down onto his lap, he gave Amanda a kiss.

"That was why I didn't say anything." Amanda admitted, smiling at him "I felt like shit about what happened to your apartment....but I couldn't complain about the results."

Stan nodded resting his head on her shoulder..

"She will have to pay, of course. I can't let this stand."

"Hmm.. possibly.."

Stan smiled, turning to look at her lovely face.

"I think I'll sleep on it."

"In our apartment."

After one more kiss, They get up, and finish the work for the night.

Each bearing one large box, they lock up, heading back to their place.
