Yeah my League decoder ring... it vibrates when there's a league emergency! [In which Thom clarifies nothing because apparently he's just that kind of guy.]
Apparently we superhero with them too, it was enough to get me kicked out of the League. [Not that he's a bitter betty or anything, he was just recently learning that in most societies that aren't his own, it wasn't an okay thing to have happened.]
( She can honestly say, that for all the shit The Agency have pulled - the ridiculous hours, the sadistic punishments, the agenda that erred closer to genocide than justice - they've never pried into the sex lives of any of its members.
(And for that? She's glad. Not just for herself, but for Diana and Alicia and everything they've built. For their entire group, all of them anything but straight.) )
Shit. Better not be any of that here.
( She wants to say there won't be, but she's not optimistic enough. )
I hope there isn't... so far though, everyone seems nice. Its like most worlds have the exact opposite. [And Thom was hopeful. After all, he'd been shown kindness here that he'd never anticipated back home, the kinds of things that had become incredibly unfamiliar to him in recent weeks back in his own world.]
Essentially. Not sure exactly why. Just said we could all go.
( She didn't pay that much attention to the details, just that her wish would be granted and she could go home. Which was fine until Cadelle approached her, set off the worry that Eudio might find some way to screw her over.
And so, she ended up here, reinforcing everything she asked for. She'll get back and everything will be fine. )
I hope they don't do that here, I'm kinda banking on this whole wish thing.. [Because for Thom while this whole thing was incredibly new to him, there was a certain degree of usefulness in it all. He was at a stage in his life now that he could do with his mother's presence and more importantly, her visible presence now that the interactions they had seemed so false.]
Oh yeah? And did they have wishes... back in your other place? I mean, I guess I'm asking if you got your wish? And if you did... what are you doing here? [It was maybe a little too personal but Thom found his curiosity on the matter insatiable.]
( That being that people like to screw others over. The old genie in a bottle thing where you say "bring my brother back to life!" and they do, but they bring you back to the moment when it's too late to save him any more. )

That's bullshit. Didn't know we played sports with our genitals.

I work as a bus boy and they never asked that at the interview.

Would be weird if it were an issue here. Could be wrong but this place seems as hippie as the last one.

Last place decided to stop doing it, though.
