Issue 1 Downtime

Isabel was sitting on the couch wrapped up in a blanket and sipping a mug of cocoa, looking tired, stressed and very awake.

Posted: **Sat Aug 17, 2013 1:49 am**

Connor trudged in, looking weary, half asleep, and possibly like he'd been punched. In other words, it was a normal night at work.

"Oh, 'ey luv," he said, smiling tiredly at her as he walked over. "Don't s'pose you were waitin' for me," he joked as he took a seat.

Posted: **Sat Aug 17, 2013 1:51 am**

"I couldn't sleep again."

Posted: **Sat Aug 17, 2013 1:54 am**

"Agh, not good," he said. "What's it this time, luv?"

Posted: **Sat Aug 17, 2013 4:20 pm**

"I had a really stressful shift, and I'm totally wired." Isabel replied

Posted: **Sat Aug 17, 2013 4:57 pm**

"That's rough, luv," he said. "Need ta talk about it?"

Posted: **Sun Aug 18, 2013 12:29 am**

"Some of the locals got into a car crash near the grounds, and we dealt with it since we were the closest." Isabel said "One of the guys was....well, he was in bad shape, but I pulled it all out of him." she looked down "The ambulance got there right after that, and he told them to get him to a 'proper hospital' and to not let the mutie slut touch him again."

Posted: **Sun Aug 18, 2013 1:14 am**

"Get his name? Sounds like 'e needs a propper arse-kicking when 'e hits the street again," Connor said, visibly angry.

Posted: **Sun Aug 18, 2013 1:26 am**

"I didn't." Isabel said "I was busy healing him, then dumping the injuries. I don't think he realized how badly he was hurt."

Posted: **Sun Aug 18, 2013 1:33 am**

"Arsehole," he growled. "Ever see 'im again, let me know, I've got a thing or two to 'talk' to him about."

Posted: **Sun Aug 18, 2013 1:51 am**

"Ok." Isabel said "Honestly, I just want to forget about the whole freaking thing."

Posted: **Sun Aug 18, 2013 2:02 am**

"All right whatever you want, luv," he sighed, seeming rather unhappy with it.

Posted: **Sun Aug 18, 2013 4:44 pm**

"I saved his life." Isabel said "It just seems wrong to turn around and try to get him beat down."

Posted: **Sun Aug 18, 2013 4:52 pm**

"You'd still've saved his life. Not your fault the bloke wants to say things he should get hit for."

Posted: **Sun Aug 18, 2013 9:50 pm**

"And part of me does want to beat him." Isabel said "or at least slap his face and be like "I saved your life, you arsehole"."

Posted: **Mon Aug 19, 2013 12:26 am**

"See, when yer a bartender? You can do shite like that without getting fired," he said with a smirk. "Encouraged sometimes, even."

Posted: **Mon Aug 19, 2013 12:37 am**

Isabel laughed a little "That is an argument in favor of your career, yes."

Posted: **Mon Aug 19, 2013 12:43 am**

"'Course, downside is respectable people don't want anything ta do with you. So point for yours."

Posted: **Mon Aug 19, 2013 1:04 am**

"If someone gets belligerent, you can just kick them out. Point for you."

Posted: **Mon Aug 19, 2013 2:09 am**

"The job itself? Sure. Bit of collateral damage to the reputation, though, aye?"

Posted: **Mon Aug 19, 2013 10:34 am**

"Apparently just being a mutant does that." Isabel noted, "So you might as well have fun with it."

Posted: **Tue Aug 20, 2013 2:06 am**

He shrugged. "Been tryin'. We'll see how that goes."

"'Course, lately it's been gettin' harder."

Posted: **Tue Aug 20, 2013 2:15 am**

"Yeah, I know." Isabel growled "I can't believe that Kinsey is coming here. Asshole."

Posted: **Tue Aug 20, 2013 2:17 am**

"Well, look on the bright side. Maybe his plane'll go down in the Atlantic," Connor offered reasonably.

Posted: **Wed Aug 21, 2013 12:12 am**

"I wish." Isabel said "But you know that if it did, they'd find a way to blame mutants for it."

Posted: **Wed Aug 21, 2013 1:51 am**

"Don't tempt me to start the 'how could they not figure it out' game," he said, smirking. "Dark game, that. An' too fun."

Posted: **Wed Aug 21, 2013 2:12 am**

"yeah, I know." Isabel said "I've been trying to figure out a way to give him syphilis."

Posted: **Thu Aug 22, 2013 11:57 pm**

Connor smirked. "If he was more like other politicians he'd probably already have it."

Posted: **Fri Aug 23, 2013 12:53 am**

"Wouldn't that be ironic." Isabel said "I try to give him an STI, and whoops, he's already got it."

Posted: **Fri Aug 23, 2013 1:11 am**

"Unfortunately, ye'd have to touch him to know. Probably'd need ta shower for two days straight to feel clean after that," he joked.

Posted: **Fri Aug 23, 2013 6:48 pm**

"Nah, I'd just dip my hand in bleach."

Posted: **Sat Aug 24, 2013 12:34 am**

"Still better not ta have to," he agreed. "So... what can I do ta make you feel better, luv."

Posted: **Sat Aug 24, 2013 12:49 am**

"I don't even know." Isabel said with a sigh.

Posted: **Sat Aug 24, 2013 1:02 am**

He chuckled, then gave her a one-armed hug. "C'mon, luv. Let's at least get out of the bloody common room."

Posted: **Sat Aug 24, 2013 1:11 am**

"Yeah, I don't want to pass out here and wake up with my eyebrows shaved off."

Posted: **Sat Aug 24, 2013 1:41 am**

"Nah, can't let 'em do that. C'mon, luv," he said, picking up his jacket to trudge up the steps.

Posted: **Sat Aug 24, 2013 1:53 am**

"Time to head up and pass out." Isabel said, picking up her blanket. It had pink mice on it.

Posted: **Sat Aug 24, 2013 2:43 am**

Connor chuckled when he looked at the blanket. "So can I call your blanket cute?" he teased.

Posted: **Sat Aug 24, 2013 9:53 am**

"My grandma made it for me." Isabel said defensively "I was five."

Posted: **Sat Aug 24, 2013 2:43 pm**

That made his smile waver a bit. He swallowed, then kept heading up the stairs. "Long bloody day..."
