More Crossover Continuity ⇒ Double Date, Double Trouble

[recluserose]

[After a wild weekend in the town of Blackgale, specifically at Amelia's house, the witch spent most of her time smoothing things over with the questioning locals, grading all of her student's neglected essays, and trying to apologize to the talking cat commune for not warning them about the huge human gathering. It's tough being the only witch in town sometimes. She needed to relax. What does she plan?

Why, another trip to Las Vegas, Nevada of course! Well, it wasn't so much to enjoy the tempting offers of Sin City, but to visit the person Amelia was now comfortable calling a friend, the owner of the... interesting club, Griffonx. Madigan of course!

A quick magic teleportation and search for the hidden club later, Amelia opens up the door to the establishment, dressed casually.

It should be a normal day with nothing unexpected happening whatsoever...]

Hello?

Comments

[griffonix]

... Let me try something, first.

[ she digs around in her purse and retrieves her phone. It takes her only a second to shoot Amelia a quick text: ]

where r u? do we need 2 save u from loki?? :P

[mjolnir_time]

[He peers over her shoulder at the screen.]

... Is this some kind of code?

[griffonix]

... I suppose. More like extreme shorthand.

[mjolnir_time]

How long will it take for the message to reach her?

[griffonix]

Seconds, but whether or not she notices it when it arrives is another matter.

[mjolnir_time]

So until then we wait?

[griffonix]

Yes.

[ well, it doesn't take long before her phone chirps at her, and she glances down to read the message ]

... Damn that girl's wordy.

[ aaaand a quick text back... well, maybe not so quick. This one might arrive in parts. This is her trying to make a point. ]

My dearest Amelia, we are merely worried about you, being as you are keeping company with the God of Mischief. I do not doubt your ability to take care of yourself, but I am truly unsure of his intentions. (It's clear he's taken an interest in you.) Try to enjoy yourself, but please do not hesitate to contact me if you need anything.

In the meantime, Thor and I have retired back to the Griffonix. That is where you will find us.

P.S. I don't look like an old lady, so I try not to text like one. It's called blending in. You should try it.

[mjolnir_time]

[Thor is watching the whole procedure with interest.]

How would I obtain one of those?

[griffonix]

What, a cell phone?

[ another text, but this time she goes back to the shorthand ]

k :) we'll c u l8r

... Anyway, looks like we've got a couple of hours to ourselves.

[mjolnir_time]

It seems a very fast way to communicate.

[He smiles at her report.]

How shall we spend the time then?

[griffonix]

I know a guy who could probably hook you up, since I'm pretty sure you don't have a credit card. I'll have to talk to him, though.

[ She smiles right back, closing the distance between them again ] Oh, I wonder.

[mjolnir_time]

[He's not even sure what a credit card is, but he's already put all thoughts of cell phones out of his mind.]

You have a suggestion?

[griffonix]

Possibly.

[ Let's start with a kiss, hm? ]

[mjolnir_time]

I like this suggestion.

[He puts his arms around her to draw her even closer as they kiss.]
