"What's been going on with you? Besides being a vampire."
Who: Jubilee, Ty Lee and Azula
What: Jubilee pays a visit, there are SMOOTHIES, talking, sharing of news, and then car shopping
When: Saturday
Where: SMOOTHIES
Status: Complete!
Rating: PG-13 for Azula buffets
Jubilee rapped on the door to Azula’s condo. The woman opened the door, and glared at her for a moment, before sighing and letting her in. Only because she was friends with Ty Lee. And because Ty Lee was hurt. And because she was doing her damnedest to be the good girlfriend.
That didn’t mean the look they gave each other was friendly. Azula said lyrically, “I’ll be back in an hour or so. Ty Lee, you have a visitor!”
She slipped out, and Jubilee slipped past her and slammed the door for good measure, “YO TY LEEEEEEE!”
"Jubes!" Ty Lee shouted, as highly as she could. It wasn't nearly as high as Jubilee could shout, but she was getting there. She hobbled into the room, using a cane, but otherwise seemed unmarred by her incident with the car after the gala.
"I was going crazy without you! Azula is all... smothering and Mai took off and everything is upside down and I am in desperate need of smoothies."
"Hey!" Jubilee bounced over and hugged Ty Lee, picking her up like she weighed an ounce.
"Smoothies can be arranged!" Still carrying her, Jubilee headed out the door.
Ty Lee flailed in the air, nearly dropping her cane. This was new and unexpected! They'd both been strong as gymnasts, though, so maybe it was kind of not so unexpected. She probably didn't weigh that much after her time in the hospital.
"Aah! Well I didn't mean right now but I guess this works. When did you get so strong?"
"I kinda woke up like this one day," Jubilee pointed out, hopping down the stairs three steps at a time. Sure, she couldn't lift a car, and she was bundled up like it was winter, but she could totes carry Ty Lee!
She got the girl into her car, and then got into the driver's seat, "Okay SMOOTHIES so how are you feeling?"
Buckling up was the law, and Ty Lee decided she better follow it, even if she was technically a crime lord now. She was still trying to wrap her head around that, and wasn't sure how to tell Jubilee.
So instead, she shrugged, "Worried about Mai and Zuko, desperately in need of doing gymnastics... It's going to be awhile before I can, I think. But YOU are very pale and kind of... Are you a vampire for real?"
Jubilee flashed her teeth at Ty Lee, "Kind of! It's like I'm not all there yet. I get cravings sometimes... it's hard to resist..."
She pulled out into the road and drove toward SMOOTHIES which must remain capitalized. She glanced at Ty Lee, “I vant to drink your BLUD!”
"Well if you really needed to I don't think I'd mind too much. Well I'd mind if you turned me into a vampire from it or killed me, but if you just needed a little... pick me up? I'd be okay with that," Ty Lee shrugged a shoulder as she spoke, like this conversation was commonplace.
She came from a world where people could make fire out of nothing and bend water into ice and all kinds of other crazy things. The fact that Vampires existed was kind of becoming the new normal.
Which should have been disturbing. But it wasn't. She glanced at Jubilee and added, with a cautious smile, "I'm kind of a crime lord now."
"For reals?" Jubilee glanced over at her, both eyebrows raised so high they appeared above her huge sunglasses, "I'll bet you tasted really sweet."
The crime lord thing sunk in just then, and she nearly hit a food card, "Crime Lord?!"
"Really!" The response was in answer to both things. Ty Lee didn't really elaborate, but instead pointed at a SMOOTHIE stand wherein they could get SMOOTHIES which obviously still needs to be capitalized.
"SMOOTHIES!"
Suitably distracted, Jubilee parked and jumped out of the car. She ran over to the SMOOTHIES and got their favorite, plus some snacks. Okay a whole lot of snacks. Then she bounded back over to the car and slid inside, "Here! What does a crime lord do anyway? Is that like the Yakuza or Madripoor?"
"Well right NOW I mostly try and keep the other two crime lords from killing each other," Ty Lee replied with a bit of a long suffering sigh. She cheered herself up by taking a long pull off her smoothie, and munching on one of her snacks.
"Azula and Zuko, right?" Jubilee asked. Like the alpha and the omega, but Azula was more like the end of the world than Zuko, "Isn't that what you were doing before, anyway?" She flashed a grin.
Ty Lee laughed, a bit of a wispy sounding one, like she still couldn't get enough air behind it to make it sound completely throaty. She grinned, then and nodded her head, "It's totally what I was doing before. Only now I get paid to do it, and I get to oversee some legitimate business and some other things too. I don't really know what I'm doing with all of that yet. Azula likes to use me as the good cop."
"Do you like it? Is it like..fulfilling? I'm sure you'll have time to bounce around still, right?
Jubilee reached over and rubbed her shoulder. Ty Lee was clearly too weak for nom noms, so she wouldn't be taking her up on that offer just yet. She didn't really need it that often yet, and between Rahne and Ollie she was inclined to not nom.
She had her own news to impart, too! But Ty Lee was going first, yo!
"I like that people are starting to respect me more, and not just because I won a few medals at the Olympics, you know?" Ty Lee smiled. She cuddled in against Jubilee a bit more, and took another few long sips of her smoothie, thoughtfully, "When I heal up I want to re-train. I don't know if I can still do it, but I want to try. I'll definitely make the time for it."
The snacks were all tasty looking, and Ty Lee selected another one while smiling at Jubilee, "What's been going on with you? Besides being a vampire."
"I'm sure you'll be able to do it. Mind over matter, chiiiica!" She lightly poked Ty Lee in the shoulder, and sucked on her smoothie, which no longer required all caps.
"Uhm. I'm gonna get a new car, and I'm going to move in with Ollie, and I've been visiting Kit Kat while she was all ghosty."
"Oooh, you're moving in with Ollie?! That's big news! Why didn't you say something sooner!?" Ty Lee poked her friend back. She was so excited for Jubilee that she almost bounced up and down in her seat.
Then the rest of what Jubes said hit her, and she blinked, "Wait, Kitty was a ghost?"
"Totes! 'cause I'm SCARED like WHOA." Jubilee poked her again, "Kinda! Her powers went wonky and she couldn't stay solid!"
"There's nothing to be afraid of, living with the person you love is awesome." The grin on Ty Lee's face was quite confident and a bit like the cat that had eaten the canary, "You pretty much have access to a free buffet of fun times, and waking up next to them every morning is the best way to wake up, ever."
"Yeah..I don't get to wake up next to him nearly enough. IS the Azula buffett any good?" She elbowed her friend teasingly, "Joking. You got this... brightness around you. Like confidence. It's hot!"
"JUBES!" Ty Lee couldn't believe she was being asked that! Even if the woman was only joking. The blush on her face was probably all Jubilee needed to know that the Azula buffet was spectacular, anyway.
She ducked her head, and shook it a bit, "I just wanted to stop being treated like a child, even by my peers, I think."
"I need to find some chick to fool around with Ollie with," Jubilee said quietly, sitting back and starting the car again. "That's a buffet I want to know if I like."
She glanced over at Ty Lee and then hugged her with one arm, "You deserve it! Hey, wanna go look at cars? I'm thinking of splurging a little bit. Yanno? As long as I'm not buying a new car every week all those endorsements should last. But I want something AWESOME."
"I'd offer, but I think Azula would have a problem with me allowing other people to... uhm. Sample my buffet, you know?" Ty Lee hugged her back, then flashed her a smile, "We will find you the awesomest new car."
Some part of her just knew this would involve talking her out of buying anything neon orange or pink. If they made cars in those colors, everyone was doomed.
"Especially as sampling the buffett would have Ollie there," Jubilee pointed out, giggling.
Can you say pink or yellow Mustang?
Ty Lee could say it, but she really didn't want to. Pink or yellow were not awesome colors for Mustangs. Ever.
"That's true..." She agreed, with a bit of a giggle, herself.
“Quickly! To the Mustang Ranch!” Jubilee giggled again, and floored it.
