[charring]

[Charlie's not home. Nor is she at the Dragon. She's wandering the City. She'll be at;

The park: with all of her pets. Yes. All. There's a white fox on a leash. A grey-ish cat who goes where the fox goes. An old calico who really doesn't give a rats ass about anything and is hiding under a nearby park bench. There's a small Daschund puppy with incredibly hairy ears who would rather run and pounce at the turtleducks in the pond, only to run away barking loudly when they so much as look in his direction. Because Gwaine is the bravest, fiercest dog ever OH GOD THEY'RE GETTING OUT OF THE WATER QUICK HIDE BEHIND CHARLIE!

And Charlie has found a nice spout under a tree to read. With a hedgehog sleeping on her shoulder. Yes. A hedgehog.

Grocery Shopping: without the pets.

At the Dragon: helping with construction by using her ability to weld.

She's entirely botherable!]

[ Pyro's walking through the aisles in the grocery store; round and round he goes. He's got a bottle of coke in his hand and intends on finishing it, and not paying for the damn drink because he can. Fuck this City. Who told the dumb deities to bring him back here anyways? ]

[charring]

[AAAH! BIG BROTHER! Charlie is SO EXCITED TO SEE THIS JERK! But he hasn't seen her yet and she's a few new tricks up her sleeve so Charlie sends a small batch of sparks from her hand. They swirl in front of him long enough to get his attention before returning to Charlie. She'll just be standing here, arms crossed over her chest and a smirk on her face.]

[ex_erring42]

[ Good job, Chucky. The sparks does get his attention away from the sour cream and onion chips he'd been eyeing. He raises an eyebrow at her in a 'do I know you?' manner. ]

Who the fuck are you? [ Hardy har har. He's evil alright. John recognizes her, okay? It's just a lot more fun to pretend not to. (At least for two seconds or so.) ]

[charring]

[And Charlie believes him for all of two seconds before commenting with;] You're a dick.

[And now she's hurrying over for a hug. Deal with it, bro.]

Action: at the park

[silliest_girl]

[Diane's pretty sure she doesn't like this place. Sure, the park is all right, but it's not home, and it's making her nervous. She's sitting on a bench when she spots the white fox on a leash, and can't help getting up and approaching it -- and its owner.]

Oh, he's -- she's? -- adorable!

Re: Action: at the park

[charring]

[Phantom is the first to notice the person, bouncing in place with excitement. Charlie's arm is tugged by the leash and she looks up, grinning at Diane.]

He. His name is Phantom.

Re: Action: at the park

[silliest_girl]

Well, hello there, Phantom.

[She smiles, first at Phantom and then at Charlie, although she still looks a little lost.]

I'm afraid I'm confused...

[Grocery Store]

[brian_synchronicity]

[He has a bag of chips and a soda. Because, you know. And he turns the corner and almost runs into her. Because, you know. He gets stuff wrong.]

Oh, hey. Sorry! My bad!

Re: [Grocery Store]

[charring]

[Charlie stops short of running into the guy, grinning slightly and shaking her head.] Don't worry about it. It's crowded. It was bound to happen.

[Grocery Store]

[brian_synchronicity]

Uh, yeah. Sooner or later, I guess, yeah. Uh... Thanks.

[And he tries to kinda, like, wave at her with the hand that's holding the soda. No disasters. It's just awkward. Bless his heart.]

[bamfingcats]

[Yeah. So there's a grey kitten nomming some of the tables.]

[charring]

[What? Kitten. Why? Charlie approaches the kitten, hand out for the kitten to sniff.] Hey, kitty. That's not good for you. I have kitty food. Does that work for you?

[bamfingcats]

[Kitten sniffs her hand and then immediately loves upon it. THERE IS A HAND AND IT IS WONDERFULL!!!!

There is missing table where the kitten was nomming.

Yes. The kitten ate the table. But he'll have kitty food too.]

[action - park]

[designedtoparty]

[Wow, Charlie. Where did your book go? Certainly not into the hands of this charming fellow who just snuck up behind you. It's not like he's holding it right there or anything.]

[action - park]

[charring]

[The most charming fellow. So charming, in fact, that Charlie takes one look at the book thief, stands up and throws her arms around his shoulders in a hug.] Hey, you! Oh, my gosh. Hi!

[action - park]

[designedtoparty]

[So charming he not only gets an armful of Charlie, but a hedgehog in his face. LUCKILY HE HAS MISSED HER. A lot more than he'll admit. So he just leans his face away from her pain inducing companion and hugs her back. He may have dropped the book.]

Hey. I forgot you had a zoo.

at the park!!

[who_is]

[Hello Charlie, have a handsome (and damp-looking) man in coveralls and a flat cap eyeing your crew with a broad grin.]

That's a right menagerie you've got there, lass.

[charring]

It keeps me on my toes. [Charlie looks over at Atlas, smiling just a tiny bit. Petrichor wanders over to the man, sniffing slightly before heading back to Charlie. Charlie takes one look at the man and raises an eyebrow.]

Did you fall into the fountain?

[who_is]

Don't recall seeing any fountain, much less falling into it. It was a bit damp where I was before, though.

[He glances up to the sky, squinting in the light.]

Ah... Feels good to see the sunshine again.

action; at the Dragon;

[beifongbandit]

[ Whenever Toph finds herself in the City, she always knows exactly where to go. She's a little surprised to see it under construction, however. ]

Hey, Char, what'd you do to the place?

Re: action; at the Dragon;

[charring]

There was a creature giving people bad tea. It made people angry and it kept getting worse until I took the creature out. Unfortunately, I had to be a bit destructive.

Which now makes me feel like ass because you're here.

action; at the Dragon;

[beifongbandit]

[ Toph shakes her head decisively. ] Hey, teashops can be repaired, but zombies are forever, right?

[dudeimbatman]

[Dean is at the grocery store because this dimension traveling shit makes him hungry. He's actually nomming on some twinkies when he sees Charlie walking down one of the aisles.]

Hey, Kiddo. See you're still here or you just visiting?

[charring]

Dean! [Guess what, Dean? You're not allowed to go anywhere without Charlie attacking you with a hug.] Hi!

[She loves these weekends.] Still here. Been here for over a year, actually. And...

[Take a good look at the hand she's holding up. There's a ring on it.]

[dudeimbatman]

[Dean smiles at the ring, taking her hand to look at it.] Nice. Who's the lucky guy?

[What he's really thinking is that the marriage is entirely up to the whim of the deities. They could jerk someone away from her at anytime and she'll be left heartbroken. It's too big a risk as far as Dean is concerned, but he's not about to rain on Charlie's parade.]
