Get a wish?

Make a wish yet?

[Locked to "Pumps"]

It might be a little intimidating to open up and then have the person disappear. Just sayin'.

[John's recent conversation with Helena on the mutant issue hadn't spurred him to the Mutant Cause. He was so done with the cause. The cause, right now, could go fuck itself. John had died multiple times because of the cause and different mutants struggling for supremacy. He was, in a word, finished.

So it was time to travel to another door.

He didn't know what door he was entering, and at first, the bright lights and the energy of 1920's New York made him roll his eyes. Couldn't he get away from New York? But as he walked, he noticed the details of a book read long ago. Of glamor and death, and a green light in the distance. The Great Gatsby. He loved that book.

So as the sun set, he made his way through the people to try to find one hell of a party.]

So, Cleo, you got an advice line?

Thinking I need to return to my roots. And more money would be nice What's popular in the literature world today? Please tell me people are reading more than that Fifty Shades of Bullshit.

[Carol D/Thor]

Time and place, big guy. Let's chat.

[Carol D/Natasha R]

Hey. You okay?

[Carol D/Sharon C]

Didn't get stuck inside a well hung man this time, did you? [Cursor blink.] Make it out okay?

[Avengers' Mansion Residents]

Still a spare room available? I'm not moving in permanently, but I think I need to be away from my place for a few days.

Heh. Well, thanks for the memories, all. Especially you, Red

And the lighter, mate. Whoever you were. You're a real lifesaver.

[Black ink. The handwriting is cramped but elegant, the pen splotchy. It stops halfway through, replaced by something lighter, brisker. Ballpoint. There is no seeming awareness of the audience by the author.]

Sibylline Leaves.

Minor spotting.

Inscription (smudged).

[A phone number, more scrawling.]

Because I could use more money

If anyone's interested in a real psychic reading, I'm looking for customers.

And, no, it's not a scam.

And, no, I'm not Miss Cleo. Or whoever the daytime talk shows are featuring these days.

Oh, what now?

[PUBLIC JOURNAL POST AS EMMA F]
Different Mansion. Different New York? Please. Someone’s going to have to try harder. I remain unimpressed at these old hats.

[Public as St. John A.]
What's that adage? Third time's a charm?
