007 [Video] || My heart kept breaking. I threw it against the wall Can anyone feel me at all?

[theassassin]

I suppose it was just a matter of time before I got another reminder.

[The red head looks at from the phone to the thin box chain around her neck and the charm. A delicate fragile looking silver heart the size of a quarter with James' star in the center of it. The same one that he has on his shoulder back home, now miniaturized and placed in the center of a stupid metal heart on a chain around her neck. ]

This place... it never does quite let you get back on your feet before it knocks them back out from under you again. [This time? This time it's almost like a punch to the gut. James' star. Of course that's what she'd get.

Green eyes drift from the charm back to the device and she sighs. She's already wasted far too much time just staring. Letting the little heart spin around on the chain and watching as the image appears and vanishes from sight with every turn.]

A curse I'm assuming? Anything special I need to know?

Naturally, I should have known better than to think it wouldn't try to throw me.

[hulkbusted]

It doesn't seem to help to know that it's trying to throw all of us.

[theassassin]

Some of us are more used to it than others. That doesn't make it any easier though.

[hulkbusted]

No, not really. I wish I had something useful to say, but my heart isn't as easy to handle as yours, which lowers my ability to be comforting.

[theassassin]

My heart isn't even mine... It doesn't feel like it anyway. It feels like I'm looking at a piece of something that isn't all here.

[hulkbusted]

That's... I'm sorry. Mine is definitely mine.

[theassassin]

At least, I know why? It would be worse I think if I didn't.

[hulkbusted]

I haven't encountered anyone who didn't understand the message behind their heart.

[theassassin]

Well, that's something then. Are you alright? Yours is...safe.

[hulkbusted]

Mine is properly contained.

[theassassin]

That's.... good?

[hulkbusted]

Since it's putting out lethal doses of gamma radiation, I'd say yes, that's good.

[theassassin]

Thumbs up, Banner. Best plan there.

[hulkbusted]

It isn't what I would have chosen as a heart metaphor, as Tony put it.

[theassassin]

Not really what I would have either.

[hulkbusted]

In context I wouldn't have chosen to be here at all. A 24-hour inconvenience is the least of concerns.

[theassassin]

Switching gears a little here, but what have you learned from my blood, if anything.
