day 225 | xiii ❧ potluck mingle!

[ this is her first time doing one of these without gran, and something she thought was going to be difficult for those very reasons is actually rather therapeutic, heartwarming -- a glance back at her roots, back when she was just adele stackhouse's weird granddaughter and not that fae who mingles with vampires. sookie contributes a few dishes from her gran's old recipes, along with something lafayette taught her to make. she's got all the tables in this part of trois park covered with checkered table clothes of varying colors, lots of plastic silverware, paper plates, cups, and napkins at the ready, and a stack of picnic blankets folded up on one of the benches for those who wish to sit on the grass instead of at a table. sookie even brought a long a mesh bag full of sports equipment -- or rather, a couple frisbees, a football, soccer ball, basketball, and even some hacky sacks. (she's not the sports type, but jason would always be off playing something with the other guys.)

hopefully she didn't leave anything out. hopefully this will help cheer everyone up some, both the new arrivals and those still dealing with the days they spent in that other prison. ]

I have three friends from home, at the moment. [Her smile fades a little, though she manages to keep it up] My boyfriend was here with me up until a few days ago, until that lucky jerk somehow managed to swing parole....

[But enough of the sad thoughts. They were talking friends. She had some of those.]

There's also a bunch of people I've met since I've been here. Richie...Elena...Sookie...she's the one who set this up today, I think.

	I'm sorry to hear that. [ He genuinely does sound sorry, too. A little awkwardly, he adds,] My, ah, boyfriend [Its not a term either of them particularly care for, and his tone says as much.] is here as we'll and its made it easier being stuck here with someone you can trust.

	[She doesn't even bat an eyelash] Who's your boyfriend? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Captain Jack Harkness. You may have met him, he's rather social. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notbabymagic 2013-06-29 04:58 pm UTC (link)
	Jack? Oh, yeah, we've definitely met. He's a lot of fun. Completely swept me off my feet for a dance at the luau that night. [...of course, since Zatanna is all of fourteen years old, and ~~had~~ has a boyfriend of her own, Ianto should pick up that the entire thing was completely inncoent.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	readystopwatch 2013-06-29 06:25 pm UTC (link)
	He does tend to do that. [If Jack want off sweeping strangers off their feet Ianto would have worried there was something wrong with him.] Who was it who disappeared, if you don't mind me asking? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notbabymagic 2013-06-29 06:27 pm UTC (link)
	No, it's alright. I don't mind. His name's Robin. [Well, actually, his name's Dick Grayson, but shh secret identities] He's roughly my height. Black hair. Likes to wear masks and capes while running around the dome rooftops. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well I didn't expect that last bit. Any particular reason? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He grins.] Me too, actually. Just without the costumes. [Because his usual 3 piece suit is so much more practical.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notbabymagic 2013-06-29 09:52 pm UTC (link)
	[She takes one look at the three-piece suit and automatically guesses some form of government official.] Yeah? What do you do, exactly? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hunt aliens, mostly. You? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	What, like X-files style? [...was he patronizing her?] Super-powered criminals on my end. Some of them are aliens, I think, but most of the aliens are on our side. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	readystopwatch 2013-06-29 11:51 pm UTC (link)
	Sort of, I suppose. I work for a top secret organization called Torchwood that defends the earth from alien threats. We're not lucky enough to have any on our side though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yes. Are you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notbabymagic 2013-06-30 12:08 am UTC (link)
	Mostly. Oh, but everything I said really was true. More or less. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Same here. So, if you're fighting super villains do you have any powers of you own? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notbabymagic 2013-06-30 02:06 am UTC (link)
	Maybe. [Yes.] You? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well that's an interguing answer. Nothing besides a can-do attitude and being good at research. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notbabymagic 2013-06-30 02:21 am UTC (link)
	I've always been a big fan of the keep-'em-guessing attitude. Nothing wrong with that. Some of my best friends are baseline human, even. And they're better crimefighters than half the metas I know. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
