[Thud. Thump. CRASH. Pause, the faint creak of floorboards.]

owww...

CRASH.. Thud. Commence whining.]


He-eeey... what's going on..?

[team_sociopath]

I dunno. I think I might be sick or something.

[deadly_legacy]

Sick? It sounded like you ran into something.

[team_sociopath]

I... tripped? I never trip. Then I did twice.

[deadly_legacy]

Oh.

Are you walking instead of running at least now?

[team_sociopath]

Yeah, I don't wanna slam into something going really fast. I think I'm just gonna stay in one place til we figure out what's wrong. Which sucks.

[deadly_legacy]

It seems like there are lots of little things going wrong for people today.

...Not that tripping would be so little with your ability.

[team_sociopath]

Really? It's not just me?

[deadly_legacy]

I've put my hair up four times and it keeps falling down. That never happens. And this morning it seemed like everything in the refrigerator had expired at once.

[team_sociopath]

Gross!

So maybe it's a curse? And not some terminal creepy speedster virus?

[deadly_legacy]

Well, not every single thing. Just most things we would have made for breakfast.

I think a curse is probably more likely here.

[team_sociopath]

That's lame. But I mean, less lame, than if it wasn't, you know?

[deadly_legacy]

I've seen worse.

I'm glad you aren't sick.

1/2

[team_sociopath]

Me, too.

[team_sociopath]

[Also, Tommy remembers, there is a world outside his own ego.]

That sucks about your breakfast and hair and things though.

[deadly_legacy]

[Almost giggles. She's used to royalty, so it doesn't seem at all odd to her.]

Thank you, Tommy.

[team_sociopath]

I definitely can't go running with you like this. We'd both break something.

[deadly_legacy]

We don't have very good timing, do we?

[team_sociopath]

Well it's not our fault, probably. Mostly.

[deadly_legacy]

I do think the City has something to do with it.

[team_sociopath]

Is the City, like, alive? People talk about it doing things like it is.

[deadly_legacy]

Oh, no, I don't think I'd go that far. I suppose I should have said the deities, but I guess I just think of it all as one.

[team_sociopath]

Lots of people seem to.

[deadly_legacy]

Not you?

[team_sociopath]

I dunno what I think yet.
