Peter blinked, confused. She was just gonna…hang out here on top of the bus? Like nothing was happening? He’d have to spell it out better than that, maybe. “Yeah, y’see, y’can’t just hang out on top of buses. I’m not dissin’ your cause or nothin’ — hell, I ain’t from here and I ain’t sure what the problem is. But there’s a whole load of nice folks down there who need to go places, an’ they can’t now. How ‘bout you go join the rest of ‘em at the big protest, an’ let us all on our way, huh?” For him, he didn’t really mind skipping out on a medical appointment. Got a good excuse, and some brownie points for helping the people on the bus. If it was gonna stop him flying, though….he’d really rather get it over and done with and get back up there in the skies. “I ain’t borin’, I promise. I ain’t one’a those adults, I mean, techni’cly I’m from space so…I’m not bein’ a total dick here.”

“Are you sure about that? Cause space or not, you sound kinda boring.” Tandy raised an eyebrow. Was he really going to try and pull that ‘I’m not like other adults, I’m a cool adult’ on her as if she hadn’t seen Mean Girls a thousand times? If he was trying to convince her he wasn’t totally out of touch, he was definitely failing. 

“Also kinda sounds like you have no idea what you’re talking about. See, inconveniencing people is kind of the point? I know it sucks for them and I am a little bit sorry ‘bout that, but large faceless crowds in one place don’t always make the same sort of impact.”

With a shrug, Tandy turned away from him, sign held up once again. 

“‘Sides, what are you gonna do about it? You can’t make me move, right?”

Peter was getting mighty sick of this goddamn job. He’d signed up to fly planes, and he was pretty sure they were just trying to stall him at this point. He was fine! There was no need for him to go to an actual hospital to get the final aeromedical checkup when they had their own secret bullshit at SHIELD. No. Someone was testing him on exactly how much he hated hospitals. Assholes. Getting on the bus should have been good enough, right? He didn’t actually have to go inside. Just show that he would have done. It wasn’t as if this stupid thing was going anywhere any time soon. New York had a whole load of traffic, but this seemed out of the ordinary. He grabbed his phone - to change the song, but also to tell Gamora he was bored and did she want to get noodles. She’d tell him to keep his appointment, he knew that, but it didn’t matter. He really just wanted to get her attention so she’d call him.  One of those flashy boxes came up on his screen from the news people. Saying something’d happened over at the Wakandan embassy. Well. Saving the day would be a totally good excuse to skip! As soon as he put his phone back in his pocket, there was a loud crash on the roof. Some people started screaming, and he pushed his way through the standing crowd in the aisle. Putting on his mask and opening the emergency window, Peter climbed out atop the bus to find - a small blonde chick with a sign?  He stowed his mask, trying a different tactic. “Hey, y’really freaked some folks out there for a second, huh? What’s the cause? Y’ stickin’ it to the man?” @divinely-paired

“Tandy, this is crazy.” Tyrone was giving her a look that Tandy has come to know well. That expression of sheer disbelief he had been giving her since the day they had re-met.

“And?” Tandy raised an eyebrow, staring back at her partner impatiently. “Maybe crazy is what people need. Gotta get the message across somehow.”

“Have you thought this through?”

“Do I ever?”

“Girl, you’re going to be the death of us.”

“Hey, we’ve beat death like twice now. That means nothing. Now make with the portal already!”

“I’m coming back for you as soon as this starts going south.”

“Worrywart.”

“One of us has to be.” With a sigh, Tyrone pulled her in, darkness enveloping the two of them from where they were hiding in their church and dissipating over one of the NYC streets...a bit higher up then Tandy had been prepared for. As the darkforce’s grasp released her, she dropped into the roof of a bus, stumbling a bit on the landing. Somewhere in the distance - or perhaps in the back of her own mind - she could have sworn she heard Ty laughing.

No matter. She straightened herself up, grabbing the sign she had brought with her and holding it above her head.

She hadn’t exactly been expecting someone to end up her with her.

“Yeah, sorry ‘bout that part. Really. That was far from my best landing.” She shrugged, grinning slightly and standing a bit straighter. “You could say that though.”

“Believe it or not, I’ve met people pulling off stranger combinations.” Her mind briefly flickered to Brigid. Was a cop-slash-vigilante that much different? “And I don’t think being a lawyer excludes someone from being physically fit.” This seemed like a losing argument, but when had Tandy ever been one to back down easy regardless of that? “Seems fine.” She shrugged. Truthfully, she could have things covered here fine on her own (well, her own with Ty) if there was trouble anyway. “Couldn’t I just be curious?”

“Occam’s Razor: the simplest explanation is the best one. I know it’s a strange world. But that’s usually as good a rule of thumb as any.” He also knew some strange combinations of people, although he was very aware that he and his friends were the exceptions to the rule. “Curiosity’s not a crime, so of course you can. I wouldn’t be doing my job properly if I didn’t check.” Her heartbeat and breathing seem steady enough that he’s content she’s telling the truth.

“Yeah, well, simple is boring.” Tandy chuckled, shaking her head slightly. Maybe not relevant to this exactly, but true all the same. “I guess not. Hope you don’t think little ole me would be causing any trouble though.”

“Well you haven’t said much to dispute it.”

“I’d hardly be a lawyer in the daytime, would I? You don’t get these skills by sitting behind a desk and going to the gym however often. I’d have to be some type of martial arts master, or mountain climber, or something. An everyday kind of daredevil.” He jokes. “Enough about me. Most people don’t stop to talk to costumed vigilantes. Did you need help with something? Everything okay out here?”

HOZIER SENTENCE STARTERS

taken from hozier’s first album & his ep from eden. feel free to change pronouns, etc!

TAKE ME TO CHURCH

‘ you’re the giggle at a funeral. ’ ‘ i should’ve worshiped you sooner. ’ ‘ if the heavens ever did speak, you’re the last true mouthpiece. ’ ‘ the only heaven i’ll be sent to is when i’m alone with you. ’ ‘ i was born sick, but i love it. ’ ‘ i’ll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies. ’ ‘ i’ll tell you my sins, and you can sharpen your knife. ’ ‘ let me give you my life. ’ ‘ if i’m a pagan of the good times, my lover’s the sunlight. ’ ‘ that looks tasty. ’ ‘ there is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin. ’

ANGEL OF SMALL DEATH & THE CODEINE SCENE

‘ we’re shaking the wings of our terrible youths. ’ ‘ i lurched like a stray to the arms that were open. ’ ‘ with your sweetened breath and your tongue so mean, you’re the angel of small death and the codeine scene. ’ ‘ i lay my heart down with the rest at your feet. ’ ‘ it’s bloody and raw, but i swear it is sweet. ’

JACKIE AND WILSON

‘ so tired trying to see from behind the red in my eyes. ’ ‘ you found me just in time. ’ ‘ i never felt young. ’ ‘ you’re gonna save me. ’ ‘ call me ‘baby,’ run your hands through my hair. ’ ‘ we’ll steal a lexus, be detectives, ride around picking up clues. ’ ‘ it’d be great to find a place we could escape to sometime. ’ ‘ i’m happy to lie back, watch it burn and rust. ’ ‘ i tried the world; good god, it wasn’t for me. ’

SOMEONE NEW

‘ you knew who i was with every step that i ran to you. ’ ‘ would things be easier if there was a right way? there is no right way. ’ ‘ i fall in love just a little bit every day with someone new. ’ ‘ there’s an art to life’s distraction. ’ ‘ some like to imagine the dark caress of someone else; i guess any thrill will do. ’

TO BE ALONE

‘ i never feel to good in crowds with folks around. ’ ‘ all i’ve ever done is hide. ’ ‘ when you kill the lights and kiss my eyes, i feel like a person for a moment of my life. ’ ‘ you don’t know what hell you put me through. ’ ‘ it feels good to be alone with you. ’ ‘ now at last the worst is over. ’ ‘ i know you hate this place. not a trace of me would argue. ’ ‘ we should run away. ’

FROM EDEN

‘ there’s something tragic about you. ’ ‘ there’s something so magic about you. ’ ‘ there’s something lonesome about you - something so wholesome about you. ’ ‘ get closer to me. ’ ‘ you’re familiar. ’ ‘ idealism sits in prison; chivalry fell on its sword. ’ ‘ innocence died screaming - ask me, i should know. ’ ‘ i slithered here from eden just to sit outside your door. ’ ‘ there’s something wretched about this. ’ ‘ there’s something so precious about this. ’ ‘ to the strand, a picnic planned for you and me - a rope in hand for your other man to hang from a tree. ’

IN A WEEK

‘ i have never known peace. ’ ‘ i have never known hunger like these insects that feast on me. ’ ‘ we’ll lay here for years or for hours - thrown here or found, to freeze or to thaw - so long we become the flowers. ’ ‘ they’d find us in a week. ’ ‘ i’d be home with you. ’ ‘ i have never known colours like this morning reveals to me. ’ ‘ you haven’t moved an inch; such that i would not know if you sleep always like this, the flesh calmly growing cold. ’

SEDATED

‘ just a little rush, babe, to feel dizzy, to derail the mind of me. ’ ‘ my veins are busy, but my heart’s in atrophy. ’ ‘ you and i, nursing on a poison that never stung - our teeth and lungs are lined with the scum of it. ’ ‘ free and young, and we can feel none of it. ’ ‘ i’m somewhere outside my life. i keep scratching, but somehow i can’t get in. ’ ‘ i’m a slave to any semblance of touch. ’ ‘ i should cool it, but i love it too much. ’ ‘ don’t you stand there watching, won’t you come and save me? ’ ‘ don’t you join in, you’re supposed to drag me away from it. ’
