Who: Carol Danvers (MCU) and Nyx What: Contemplating an unexpected surprise Where: Pancho's When: Wednesday afternoon Rating: TBD
Carol was finally recovering from the past few weeks. Between being sick and the whole werewolf fiasco, there had been a lot of recovering to do. The bar was now repaired thanks to some help from Natasha and supplies from Nyx, and they were back up and running as usual. The whole town was getting better. Things were looking up.
And then she woke up this morning to an old, beat-up cardboard box sitting on the bartop. At first, she thought it was something someone had just dropped by. Maybe supplies from Klaus or Nyx. But her heart stopped when she opened it and just...stared. The first thing she pulled out was a framed photo of her and Maria, singing from over twenty years prior. Carol hadn't expected that tightening in her chest. Inside, more photos. Maria. Monica. T-shirts. And her dog tag. She picked it up, running her thumb over the burnt metal.
That had been three hours ago and now she sat at the bar, half a bottle of emptied Asgardian liquor next to her, that same framed photograph of Maria and her in her hand and classic 80s rock now playing on the bar's pitiful sound system. Shit. Whoever had brought this had some messed up sense of humor. She couldn't remember a time when she wanted to punch someone more in the face in her life. And that included Yon.
