Normal is a lie we tell ourselves

[assholic]

Who: Jessica Jones (assholic) & OPEN
What: May catch-all
When: Early May to the end of May
Where: Wyver (home/city/arenas), the Space Station, the Wilds, possibly Khalo Village
Warning(s): As always, language. Will edit if needed. Edit: NSFW sex in thread w/Clark

She'd gone to the Coalition and surprise, surprise, no one had died. Well, not that she was aware of. Things seemed to be settling down into something less hostile. There were talks of diplomacy, and she'd heard of refugees starting some diplomatic guild or something, which she also trusted about as far as she could throw any of them in it. The Outpost was being turned into some sort of Swiss neutral zone, but it wasn't what she'd been hoping for.

Still, it was probably better than nothing. She'd limited her visits to Olympia, which had left her with time and the need to line her pockets with something other than those deliveries. She'd seen requests for finding things out in the wild, and while Jessica was definitely a city girl, she could at some points during May be found out in the wilds, looking for things to shove in a bag. She was also blowing off steam by continuing to fight in the arenas, though she'd been politely requested to step up a level, since the coordinators were aware that she was pulling her punches and taking easier fights instead of putting in any actual effort. Damn.

So, for May, Jessica can be found:

• Wyver
  • Home - Chilling with Clark and possibly inviting people she knows over so someone will eat the food she's only nibbling on
  • City - She still goes to the pubs, still visits the marketplace, still goes to see what's available for her to do for time and money
  • Arena - Probably the easiest place for people to find her, as she's there more often than not, having 'things at home' she doesn't want to work through
• Station
  • Pod Room - Checking up on those few she gives a shit about and the one she doesn't
  • Market - Spending some of what she's earned getting new jeans and a few bottles of stuff she can't get down on the planet
• Wilds
  • Out and about trying to harvest flora, fauna, or whatever she comes across that she hasn't seen in the markets. This prompt is open for multiple instances and available for team hand-ins
• Wildcard
  • Khalo Village - Someone could talk her into visiting there
  • Flona Cove - If anyone needs to just take a day and chill, it's her
  • Random - Something else in mind?

[She quiets for a moment because that come back is... pretty exacting. And so instead she opts for:]

Did you every try Hulka-Hulka Burning Fudge?

[One of the Ben & Jerry's flavors they'd put out a while after the Battle of New York. Saying something to the tune of oh gosh me too was a bit much, so instead, it's something smaller, easier to brush off. But the recollection of the Battle of New York puts a tension in her shoulders and she sighs, shaking her head.]

So how about that drink?

[assholic]

[She paused in her wrapping, both at the offer of a drink and the mention of someone else that knew what she was talking about. Subtle, but hard to miss when you were in the know. She didn't have to have her next match right away. It was a filler more than anything, and there were plenty of bodies to throw at each other before larger events. Bigger money-makers.

Besides, it wasn't often she got to meet someone that knew that kind of crazy she'd known before coming here.]

Sure, why not. Long as you're buying.

[krasnaya_vdova]

I'm buying the first few, more than that and you're on your own.

[There's a laugh to it, a touch of amusement. Because there was buying someone a couple drinks as an introduction, and then there was being a sucker, and Ava knew the difference. But she was interested in talking to her, and willing to cover the first couple rounds.

Besides, she sort of missed having other women to talk to. Especially one that seemed to be from the same kind of world.]

[assholic]

I won't have more than a couple. I don't want to lose my last match. I get the big payload for the night off that one.

[She unwound her hands, rolling the wrap up and sticking it in the small pack she brought with her that housed her few things. Draping it over her shoulder, she gestured to Ava.]

Dealer's choice on which house we shit in.
