Apokolips Now! Comm

I never thought I would enjoy spending time in a town as small as Smallville, but... I think I like it here. Despite the surprising lack theaters, no Glee club and absolutely no make up shops, for a little while, until my Pink Nouveau by MAC runs out and I'm in desperate need for a new one... I think I'm okay with hanging out here.

...if a guy gave you flowers, what would you What's your favorite flower?

...it's kind of nice out here. It reminds me a little of District 10...

[Oliver]
Still all right?

All right. I've rented a bus. Anyone who wants to get the hell out of Metropolis until this bout of weirdness is over, is encouraged to do so.

The bus is going to Smallville, and I've rented out the whole motel for the next week, just in case.

Peeta

I really think you and Rachel should go. It'll be much safer.

[Rachel]
I'm moved, I live right below you, now. ...do you still want me to stay with you for a while, though? Because I can, if it would make you feel safer better.

[Chloe]
...in light of everything, I never actually got anything baked, but I'm guessing that maybe there's a reschedule of the job fair...? If not I'm really sorry that I didn't follow through. It's just...Rachel was in trouble, that was more important.

[Oliver]
Where were you the other night? I really could've used your help, you kn

There was someone following me. I don't know what to do.

I just went out to get more facial cleanser and he was after me... I ran back, but he came after me! I don't know if he will manage to get into the building. He has a mask like... like the one from Scream! And he had a knife.

I don't know if it's real, I don't know if it's a prank from someone from school who hates me, but I'm scared.

Hey, I don't think we've met. I'm Cordelia. I have a question for you.

[Peeta]

Mike's cool with changing apartments. He'll switch right after the job fair Saturday!

I miss having my own kitchen...

[Cordelia]
I think I might come back to Watchtower soon. Do you know who lives in the apartments on the first or second floors, by chance? Besides, Rachel, I know where she lives Is it still okay if I

[Rachel]
Hey...do you think I could sit in on another of your rehearsals...? I enjoyed it last time. I mean, if you wouldn't get in trouble for it or anything.

[ooc: added a few minutes later]

[Oliver]
Chloe said you said that it was okay if I use your kitchen to bake for that job fair...but before she said that, I invited Rachel to help me. ...should I see if I can use Rachel's kitchen or is that okay with you...?

So for various reasons since all of you displaced people started showing up here, I haven't really been around much. But I'm back now.

My name's Oliver Queen. And I'm here to help.

I think I'm ready to enroll in high school since we have no idea when we're getting back. Dad I'm so sorry I was mad at y I miss yo How do I do that here?

Are you busy right now?

[Filtered to Lois, Clark, Peeta, Bart and Jo]

I only met some of you in passing, but I noticed from the boards you have become friends with Oliver since your arrival and this is why I'm extending this conversation to all of you, but it cannot leave this group, it most certainly cannot reach Oliver's ears. I will be monitoring all of you to make sure it doesn'

As most of you probably know, Oliver hasn't been doing as well as he could be. Some of these details might be too personal and not for me to share, but I have been keeping an eye on him and I have noticed some patterns I'm not comfortable with. He hasn't really been himself lately due to some things that happened in the past year or so, and I believe it's time for something to shake him out of this state he's been in.

I have tried most approaches already, but they haven't worked, so I came up with a plan to help him get back to his full potential. Before I give any of you any details, I need to know if I can count on your collaboration or not and I need to know that I can trust you to keep this between us for his sake.

We have come to a truce. I thought that you would all like to know. I'm not sure I'm ready to return to Watchtower, yet, but maybe soon.

[Cordelia]
Is your offer still open, temporarily, when I do return...?

Can we stop pretending please? I believe you were outed by someone new here.

Toto, I think we're in Kansas again.

Get it? Because of Kansas and the Wizard of Oz. Which I've seen over seventy-five times. Seriously. I made myself a certificate. Seventy-five viewings is kind of a momentus occasion. But yeah, I'm not Dorothy. I'm Jess and I'm in Kansas, even though I fell asleep in L.A.

Like, at first I thought it was kind of cool. Time travel or inter-demensional travel, whatever this is. And then I was worried that I'd died and gone to Kansas heaven, but people tell me that this is normal for this place. So I've kind of given up hope of seeing my grandparents around. Which is kind of a bummer, but I'm glad I'm not dead.

I actually have no idea what I'm doing. I'm Jess.

I already said that.

I'm the new girl.

Oliver says you can visit me at work, at Queen Industries, if you want and that way you'll be safe but I can still see we can still hang out and you can still help me get ready for school if you want to, still.

...is she gone? I haven't seen her on...

Oliver Queen gave me your message. What is going on? Who is she? Your ex??

I've already asked too much of Oliver Lois...could I ask a favor...? It's all right if you say no.

» Is there any way to get into the office after hours...?
» I know it's not really ideal after today but...I need to.
