"So I'm thinking how like... I don't want to die," Max said aloud as she pulled her laptop out of her messenger bag. She didn't really care who was listening and she'd all but forgotten who else was in the room with her. Given so many of her team member's propensities for moving faster than the speed of sound, it was generally pretty hard to keep track of who was with her anyway. She reached down and toggled the switch on her chair so that she could lean back in the seat and she kicked her feet up on the desk edge. "I'm so tired of this. I swear, if I ever get back home I'm never complaining about Gotham and Bludhaven again."
She reached over and grabbed a handful of the popcorn she'd made just moments before. It didn't involve water and therefore it was safe. She'd have had to be pissed if her comfort foods were contaminated. Chewing and swallowing, Max reached over for her Dr. Pepper next.
Every so often the old theatre back in Gotham would get classic movies in on their original reels and she remembered going with Dana and Terry to see things like Cassablanca, the Maltese Falcon, and Chinatown. It was Chinatown she thought of now, as she attempted once more to hack into the LA water supply to turn it off. Stupid LA and their constant stupid water scandals. Did they really find it necessary to live up to the reputation? The public water works had upped security ever since the whole truth serum incident and in result, it was harder to get back in. Why they hadn't shut off the public supply already on their own was absolutely beyond her.
Max grumbled under her breath, glaring at her computer screen. "I'm tired of Los Angeles' shenanigans. I want clown shenanigans. I want a crazy big asylum to grow out of the middle of the city and I wanna go up against... I d'know... the Penguin. Because this? This, this apocalypse stuff? Is not normal."
