So it's way more crowded here than normal, right? It's like somebody squeezed the City together and all the spread out parts condensed themselves up. Does it stay like this? Because this is dumb.

[peaceonearth]

Brilliant deduction, Sherlock.

[Have a hot blonde giving you a very good, very practiced 'are you a moron' look]

I don't even live in this hellhole and I figured that out.

[captainfuckingmagic]

[He levies a 'gee thanks fu' look back at her.]

Benefit of a new opinion.

[peaceonearth]

[And that look just makes her giggle which might be strangely disconcerting.]

So what's there to do for fun around here, Boy Genius.

[captainfuckingmagic]

[...yes it is disconcerting.]

... No, there's a guy who looks like me who is a genius, if you actually want one. Because I'm not. For fun? I like to... [He barely has friends. He knows Tony, and he knows Charlie but he hasn't talked to her since the gala... Shit.] You wanna go to the beach? I haven't been yet anyway.

[peaceonearth]

Hell yes I want to go to the beach and geniuses are fucking annoying. They think they know better than me. [Sam's enough of a 'genius' for her and he's a pain in her ass to steer down the 'right' path.]

Why don't they put that shit on the brochure?

[usually_subtext]

I should hope not. [Big sigh. Home may be dismal right now but at least it's home]

[captainfuckingmagic]

[Big sigh means maybe not alright?] You okay there? I don't know if you're new or like, new-new, but I don't think you'll be here long if you're new-new, so hopefully that's it.

[usually_subtext]

Of course. I'm fine. I stepped out of my flat to find myself in an entire differently city. Why wouldn't I be?

That does come as a relief though. Pardon me, John Watson.

[captainfuckingmagic]

Wow, man. Damn, that sucks. Wait, why wouldn't you be 'fine'? Why would you be fine?

Harry Lockhart.

[whatarewestealing]

The horses are staring at me.

[captainfuckingmagic]

...

Well leave them alone. Get out of the zoo. What the hell are you doing there?

[whatarewestealing]

Not those horses.

Who wants to go near the real ones.

[captainfuckingmagic]

[You've totally lost him.]

Then what the fuck horses are you talking about if you're not talking about real horses?

[charring]

It should be less crowded by the end of the weekend. God, please let that be the truth.

[captainfuckingmagic]

Oh thank god. I mean, they seem nice, but damn. The subway or whatever it's called is so goddamn crowded I nearly missed a meeting where someone was supposed to point out this guy she wants me to follow.

How have you been?

[charring]

Busy. Stressed. I really dislike crowds so...

How about yourself?

[captainfuckingmagic]

Not too bad. I'm used to big cities by now, I just like complaining about them. You alright? Need anything?

[fuckingthrillme]

Harry, what the fuck is going on here?

[ DO YOU EVEN KNOW HOW PISSED HE IS THAT HE HAS TO ASK YOU FOR AN EXPLANATION HARRY. ]

YOU DO NOT KNOW HOW MUCH MY HAND HURTS FROM BEATING IT INTO THE DESK BY ACCIDENT IN SHEER JOY

[captainfuckingmagic]

[...]

Perry! How long have you been here? I mean, I dunno how much I really need to explain; it's a big city full of weird people and weird shit, and you being here is some of the weird shit and sometimes people come home but usually they... don't. Or something. Do you wanna get some pizza? There's a waitress who thinks I'm somebody else who looks like me and gives me pizzas for half price.

ALDKFJAD I DID NOT MEAN TO INJURE YOU

[fuckingthrillme]

The fuck kind of explanation is that? Weird shit is not an answer, Harry.

[ everything is awful. ]

I'm standing to a fountain with a bunch of other dumbfucks who look as lost as I am. Come get me.

NO IT WAS OKAY I AM FINE sorry I took so long yeesh

[captainfuckingmagic]

Hey, slick, you look around and see what you can work out while I get there, okay? I'm not too far away.

[A little while later...]

Perry! Hey man! Yeah, so did you get any further than 'city with weird shit'?

[threeolives]

[ Pepper's gonna stare at the video for a while trying to figure out why Tony shaved... ]

[captainfuckingmagic]

[Harry's going to stare back at her wondering why she's staring at him.]

What? Is there something on my face?

[threeolives]

More like what's not there. I thought you liked the moustache/goatee look.

[captainfuckingmagic]

What are you talking a--

I'm not Tony.
