"HEY! What happened?! I thought this was the way to that Teen Titans RP!!"

Well . . . we got a little sidetracked, so to speak.

"Huh . . . don't remember having a streetcar in my possession either. What happened?"

Crashed it.

"WHERE?"

Well, y'know that transformer outside Pierside Joe's?

"It didn't . . ."

Yep . . . and THAT's where we start out, kiddo.

Pitch black . . . well, after being slammed into by a runaway streetcar certainly smashed the hell out of that poor thing! Well, that's the trouble with that. The operator, C.J. Benoit, opened the door to the bar before Arell looked at him funny.

"You played wit' Dun's tools again, din'tcha?" Arell asked as C.J. nodded.

"Hey, not my fault the abandoned streetcar line ended there. I thought there was at least one more turn." C.J. admitted, scratching his head underneath that baseball cap of his. Arell shook his head and went back toward the wreckage, getting the amps and guitars out before things got too bad. Fortunately, Arell was able to save the band gear and a few clothes, but the piece of equipment was beyond repair . . . it actually reverted back from a streetcar to a funny blue phone booth . . . wait, FUNNY BLUE PHONE BOOTH?!?

"What? You're acting like something this bizarre is out of the ordinary for me!"

Well, the nuts factor has definitely increased.

Anyway, this got Arell's attention, and he looked back towards C.J., who shrugged. "What?" he asked as Arell raised an eyebrow.

"Streetcars doan' do dat." Arell growled as C.J. smirked.

"Okay, so I fibbed about the streetcar bit. So WHAT?! We're already here!!" C.J. said as he looked around. "So, you don't think that got attention did it?" he asked as Arell facepalmed, muttering to himself while he got the guitars and amplifier out of the . . . is that really . . . Jesus Christ, when were you gonna TELL me you were the Doctor?!

"I'm NOT. Won it in a bet . . . that's the Doctor for ya. Great at savin' the world, not so good at playin' Craps!"

You best hope someone doesn't wind up actually realizing that the Doctor was IN a Marvel comic and makes his profile, or you're SO screwed!

"Pssh! Who'd try THAT?!"

Well, Arell and C.J. got the guitars out and got inside the bar . . . Arell trying to find the backup generator until they could fix the front transformer . . . which is pretty much in plain . . . sight?

Seriously, Ceej. I would totally get that thing out of sight before that gets into the wrong hands. The owner may want that back.

"Like he'd come here to AMERICA, much less GOTHAM looking for a phone booth! Besides, who USES phone booths these days? That's what CELL PHONES are for!"

Yeah, but you happened to pick THAT phone booth to take joyrides from Universe to Universe! WHO'S FAULT IS THAT?!? (and how'd you get that to work anyways? I thought that stayed in ONE universe!)

"I was gonna give it back when they got a new Doctor . . . how's that work anyways? 'Oop, white smoke, we got a new doctor!' *looks at wreck* err . . . It was outta date anyways."

. . . and THIS is how we start our story. ALREADY breaking something!

/// Because It might take me a while to type up other scenes, and you're the only other person in the Reboot right now... Let's get the awkward reunion started a little early. ///



Fortunately, or unfortunately, CJ was gifted with a small distraction from his... unique little predicament. From inside his pocket, his cell phone began to ring away. A certain someone who rarely tried to contact him any more (and why would she after the break-up some time ago) was finally giving him a ring.

((Let the awkward moments begin!!))

C.J. fumbled in his pocket the moment he felt the all-too-familiar buzz of his cell phone. Pulling it out he looked at the number.

Misty . . . in all the cell phones, in all the Gothams in all the universes, THIS is the one he got his a** beamed into. The one where there was always this harsh little reminder of the one who got away. Lord give me strength to fight the urge to chuck this thing into the bay! he thought the moment he saw her name.

Arell looked at him curiously. Surely it couldn't have been HER. They hadn't talked for months. Almost a YEAR! This had to be something either really important or (as the Cajun thought) she was gonna mess with his head for her to have called HIM. His doubts and concerns were verified the moment C.J. answered the line.

"Hey, Mist'. Long time, no talk." he said, his all-too-familiar Maryland twang a little different than it was before.

There was a brief pause from the other end of the phone. Then the woman finally spoke. As though she were surprised by who had just answered her call. ”C.J.? Er... hi. I... I'm sorry to call you so randomly like this. I'm just... I-I'm going through the list of numbers on my phone and you're the first person who's answered.” she said, then paused a moment as she shifted behind the phone. ”I just... things have been turned upside down again, and I'm just trying to find out who all is still around. It's... it's been a crazy morning. Have you noticed that the cities have been moved around again? Or... just moved around?” she said. Then she sighed and grumbled the next bit to herself. ”God I don't even know what time you're from...” she said, then shifted again.

After all... she woke up in her old apartment with her old team mate as though she had never left her universe. Except of course for the bit Scarlet had told her about briefly dating CJ. That had never happened in her world. Heck... none of this had happened in her world. The last time she had seen CJ was just... just a few hours ago. She'd managed to escape from Fisk the second time he had captured her and... and then she woke up here.

"Nah, it's alright . . . well, Arell and I are still here. (Well mostly. We FINALLY got rid of that gator thing.) Haven't seen Dun' since he got his new job. Blue something. Blue Light-post sounds about right." C.J. explained, sitting on the ground as Arell went off to find the generator. This was something that was gonna take some time to explain.

"Time frame? It's still May-something. Gotham's still here, New York's still across the bay . . . and I heard the other day Cobble-somethin's got his place open again. Not sure if he kept that whole ice-thing going, we broke up . . . got fired, Arell doesn't remember things since the big freakin' light when we story-jumped, but that's about it." he said, casually throwing in that last bit like nothing happened. Well, it did, but C.J. was cool about it. For the most part . . .

Meanwhile, Arell was down in the basement working on things. As it turned out, the power was STILL good (surprisingly) but a few fuses needed resetting, a few changes of wiring and the power was back on. Arell got up and heard what C.J. was talking about. Y-ep. It was Her. Arell didn't care too fondly for what happened, but he was polite about it.

Misty sighed lightly from the other end of the phone. ”Yeah, I... I woke up in my old apartment building. The one I used to have while I was in my nice, normal little universe. And saying my universe is normal is extremely hard to even believe but...” she said, then paused a moment. She muttered to someone across the room, then turned back to the cell phone.

”The last... the last thing I remember, Fisk had sent someone after me again and grabbed me from the train yard. I had just... phoned in a favor, so to speak, and had gotten myself out of Fisk's building. Then... I woke up in my old bed, my old roommate came in and woke me up, then thought I was crazy until she couldn't get ahold of anyone, and noticed some of the Gotham buildings. Then realized some of the buildings here in New York are completely new to her.” she said. Then another woman's voice rang out from somewhere in the room. It was too muffled to hear, but Misty waved her off.

”She also said that we had been dating, and then she never heard anything more about it. But, she doesn't know anything about Gotham, or this “new” New York, or anything outside the world I knew a few years ago. And yet us dating had been a thing, but, you're not part of my Universe. At least.. I don't think you are. And the last thing I remember was getting out of Fisks, and I'm nowhere near being pregnant all of a sudden, and...ugh... it's giving me a headache.” she said, sighing again.

”I'm sorry. I don't... anything past getting myself out of Fisks hasn't happened for me yet. But.. at least I remember who you are this time.” she continued, a small smile in her voice. Then she paused, and the smile vanished. ”I'm... I'm assuming I'm the reason you were fired. That woman did create a lot of trouble... I'm assuming I'm the reason we broke up too. I mean... you rescued me multiple times within the spanse of a day.”
PostPosted: Wed May 29, 2013 12:12 pm


C.J. smirked. "Well that's good that you remembered me this go 'round." he mentioned. Scratching his head. Well, at least she wasn't pregnant anymore? But all the rest? "Don't take it so hard, hon. Didn't have anything to do with that. Circus got sold to a firm (I think. Damn writer) and our jobs weren't needed really. Still keep in touch with everyone." he mentioned as Arell looked at him.

"Gimme de phone, Ceej. She bad news." he growled as C.J. waved him off.

"Well, that and the whole 'mobsters came for Arell and I about the same time Fisk's men came for YOU' thing. Once we got outta that we just . . . decided to go on break. I think. Tell y'what. We're still waiting for the rest of the band to get here. Why don'tcha come by and we can catch up?" he mentioned, Arell looked at him with a brow raised.

Don't do it, dude. Bad idea . . . you were tore up for a few MONTHS afterwards!!! Arell thought. It was true. When they split up, C.J. couldn't even look at himself in the mirror. The one good relationship down the drain.

"Should we mention we found the future version as Blackstone's wife?"

Nah. I don't t- habaka HOW'D YOU KNOW THAT?!?

"Helloooooo, four RP's we're in? Two're connected? This parallels the other one? ONLY ONE ME TO GO 'ROUND?!? Yeah. I remember her. I think."

Well, I can see how well this goes. Say, did you ever find out who owned that phone both you got?

"Nah."

"I say, old bean. I suppose you could have ASKED before borrowing that, but I suppose you Americans wouldn't have thought of that before?"

What the ********?! Dude! I didn't know you were here!!

"Well, only temporary, I'm afraid. Your dumb friend over there took my ride out . . . and seeing how this is a cameo, I'm needed in another episode across the pond."

*hands the keys over* "Here. Take my car. It's out in the parking lot behind the RP studio. Now get outta this RP before the writer has to make a profile for you. Quick!"

*Sigh* "Well, perhaps I should invite you, your friends and the lovely lady on the phone with you to tea sometime?"

Yeah, that'd be great. Thanks for coming out for a cameo, Doc.

"Anytime. Now I must be off. Ta-tah!" *leaves*

. . . well, this made a turn for the weird.

"I know, right? I shoulda asked for his autograph!"

Me, too. Give it up for the *insert number here* Doctor, everybody!!

”Oh, well... sure.” Misty replied, to voice taking a slightly better turn. ”I'd lo-” The other woman muttered something from the other side of the phone, and Misty tried to shoo her off again. With no luck. ”.... I... yeah. I'd like that. Just lemme know where you're at and I'll be down.” she said. The other woman grumbled something again. Then Misty grumbled, then she grumbled back. ”....WE will be over rather. My roommate likes to play Den Mother and Match Maker. She won't be much of a bother though. If you have... band members you're waiting on, I'm sure she'll make a new friend real soon.”

There was a small snap from the other side of the phone, and Misty chuckled slightly. ”Well you will...”
PostPosted: Thu May 30, 2013 2:18 pm


C.J. chuckled a little bit. If only she could see how similar it was on the other end of the phone! "Sounds good! The big dude and I are at Pierside Joe's. Kind of a dive, but the burgers are alright." he said as Arell facepalmed.

"Man, dis REEKS of a bad idea if dat's who I'm thinking it is." Arell growled as C.J. waved him off.

"Shut up, Arell! This could lead to something!" C.J. replied, cupping his hand over the phone's microphone.

"Yeah, three weeks AT LEAST wit' her on yo' brain. GREAT idea, che'." Arell growled. Muttering something about a T-shirt with a cartoon monkey that had an arm, both legs and his tail blown off holding a stick of TNT in his last remaining limb with "I'm a Slow Learner" for the caption, he walked off, working on getting things taken care of inside. It wouldn't be too long before the other two showed up . . .

"Sounds good. I haven't eaten yet, so I'll hold you to the burger thing." Misty replied, a light smile in her voice. Then she too moved the phone away and muttered something to her roommate. When she came back, she sighed lightly into the phone. "We'll have to get ready to come down. I'll let you go and... see you when we get there."




/// Sorry everyone, 20% battery power, I'll do more with posting this weekend. @_@ ///

// Oh, and you'll need to sign that rulebook thing again at the Titans RP. Apparently it's an updated set of rules, and everyone has to sign them again. Don't want 'cha getting the boot when Rosie's just about to jump in. : P ///
PostPosted: Thu May 30, 2013 6:26 pm


((The Titans RP? I bailed outta that one. Went to another Teen Titans RP with Crystal. Kinda wish they could mention the ones I get out of as well as the ones that came in. I can totally see Arell and Rosie being a great team though. Don't worry about the power though hon. I'll leave ya a few thangs so you'll get something to read. <3))

C.J. smiled a little bit. "Sounds good. My treat, so don't worry 'bout buyin'." he mentioned. When she mentioned they were getting ready, he relaxed. "Sounds good. Y'all drive safe, a'right? Take it easy." he said and hung up, putting that phone in his pocket. Looking at Arell, the big Cajun smirked.

"'Rell, m'buddy, what the hell did I get us into now?" C.J. asked as Arell chuckled.

"Us? Mo' like YOU, che'. I'm jus' heah t' play." Arell said with a smirk. Heading in for a minute, he came back out with the two guitar cases. "C'mon, let's jam a li'l bit 'til dey get heah." he drawled, causing C.J.'s eyes to light up.

. . . it wasn't a few minutes before C.J. and Arell were on the front porch of the bar just jamming.

Misty Gallay
Scarlet Hope

Location: Getting out of the cab.
Status: Neutral
.



/// Bleeeehh... so much going on this past week. I'll work on the nice long post for Scarlet and Misty and get it posted at their apartment soon. Since it's just me there, I don't feel too bad about skipping over their update. ///


It took a while for the two girls to finally arrive. For one thing, they had to travel from New York to Gotham to get to the restaurant. Another... they were what Scarlet fondly called “City-Goers”. Neither one of them owned a car, and they both found other methods of transportation. Walking, building hopping... or the nice little yellow taxi with the New York sticker that had just pulled up to the side of the building.

The first to get out of the Taxi was Misty. A simple pear of tennis shoes, jeans, and a blue button up top hanging over a little white spaghetti strap with lace top. Her figure was slim compared to her motherly body, and she seemed to be enjoying the fact that she could fit into her skinny jeans again. She twirled a bit on her left leg and stretched her other leg out, smiling at the movement she was able to do again. Her brown hair was a mess of layered waves and curls, and fell to the back of her neck and around her face. The style of hair she had back when she was roommates with Scarlet... the style she had when she actually had someone to go out and shop around and be seen. She glanced inside the taxi, then pulled a small fold of money from her pocket and moved towards the drivers side of the taxi.

Another woman soon crawled out of the Taxi after her. This woman was presumably the roommate Misty had spoke of, Scarlet. The... physical personalities between the two women were like night and day. While Misty was modest about her appearance, this woman seemed to know just what to do to show off her va-va-voom. The first thing to come out of the car was a bright red high heel tucked under dark skin-tight jeans that traveled up shapely and well-toned legs. They stretched across her hips and... erm... va-voom... and vanished under a read and leopard print top. One with a plunging neck line and wrapped around her proudly displayed assets that were difficult to tell if they were a gift from God or a gift to herself. Whatever the case... she had the body, and she knew how to show it off.
She stepped out of the car, then adjusted the strap of a red purse around her shoulder. Large red hoop earrings were hanging from her ears, and her blonde hair was pulled up into a clip at the back of her head. Enough to keep the majority of it out of her face, and leave the rest in a wild little mess at the back of her head. Her icy blue eyes were well hidden behind a pair of designer sunglasses, and her red lips were curled into a slight frown as she glanced at the building they had stopped in front of. She looked at it, down at her outfit, then shrugged and moved towards Misty. She realized she may have been.... overdressed for this establishment. But she didn't seem bothered by it.
PostPosted: Sun Jun 02, 2013 9:45 am


((Just do whatcha gotta do.))

Well it didn't take the boys very long to recognize the NYC taxi cab that showed up in front of the joint. That wasn't exactly a normal sight. Compared to the well-dressed ladies that just arrived, Arell was in his usual torn and ragged clothes, save for the western shirt he had on. That somehow looked clean in comparison to his grease-stained jeans. However, Arell seemed to have his eye on Scarlet . . . there was more va-va-varoom there than at a drag-strip! Meanwh- C.J., we DO give Arell a bit of a hard time in other RPs. Let's throw him a bone here.

"He's already GOT one."

True . . . wait, that might get us in troub- since WHEN has THAT stopped us?

"See?"

Meanwhile, C.J. hadn't gotten into something better for stage-wear, so there he was just shorts, barefoot and a hawaiian shirt. When they came up he smiled a little bit, putting his guitar down to get up to greet the two arrivals. Arell using the time to pull out a Lucky Strike and get his tobacco fix.

"Well, well. Seven months is a hell of a time, darlin'. Glad you could make it." C.J. said as he gave Misty a hug. Arell smirked and got up to start heading over, real cool and casual like. He hadn't a need to go running around now, but there might be a need.

Misty smiled, then moved to hug CJ back. ”Seven months for you maybe... just a few hours for me.” Still, she hugged him as though she hadn't seen him in months. She'd been ripped away from him rather violently hours before hand. ”I hope this isn't too awkward with the time difference.”

The cab drove away, and Scarlet turned her attention over to CJ and Misty. She... smiled slightly at the little reunion, but was giving the man a mental evaluation. He was not the type of man she'd have thought Misty would have gone with. Visually at least. John was slim but muscular with that smoldering stare of his. Alan was muscular. Very. And had a face that could have won him a modeling career. This guy... honestly looked as though he'd just gotten back from a trip from the beach.

Lightly, Scarlet shook her thoughts cleared and let her smile grow a bit. She had promised to behave. She had promised not to play match-maker or den-mother or any of that. She just needed to remind herself that his man had apparently saved Misty a few times, and there must have been something about him that she liked.
