Nolan Home for Wayward Refugees, 33 Apocalypse, Friday Evening

[not_in_the_book]

The menu finally planned, the guests on their way -- or already arrived, and dinner already cooking, Ronan felt prepared for dinner.

The smells -- and sounds -- coming out of his kitchen were probably enough to make his guests mouth water, but that was, really, par for the course when it came to Ronan. And no, you weren't allowed into the kitchen to help.

[Up early-ish for SP; open to all the Wayward Refugees, OCD on its way!]

"Here?" Ronan asked. "Pretty quiet, really. Helped Nita and Kit take care of a couple of things over Christmas, up in Long Island, but it was pretty minor stuff. Nothing world-save-y.

"Oh! I'm doing radio now!"

Parker laughed. "What day? I want to know when to download the podcasts. And are the squirrels as persistent as they're reputed to be?"

"Tuesdays!" Ronan told her, laughing a bit. "And yeah, it's -- they've pulled me in a couple of times, recently, whether I wanted to be or not. This last time just ended up with me actually getting a weekly spot."

"Congratulations. That's one thing I managed to avoid, by-and-large." Parker shook her head. "Sometimes I think I want to take a vacation here, then I remember what 'here' is actually like."

Ronan nodded. "And just think," he said, "I moved back. Sometimes I wonder if I shouldn't get my head examined."

"Oh, that's a given." Parker grinned. "I'm just not sure there's treatment available. I saw Chloe here too, over the last crisis. You are both nuts."

"Almond or pistachio?"

"Mixed!" Parker made a face and pointed at him. "I heard Jamie was actually teaching, too. I wonder who he killed to get the School Board to let him do that?"

"Considering some of the teachers they've had, I'm not entirely certain they didn't do it willingly."

It was a valid point! Deadpool was the vice-principal now, after all.

"Someday I want to be a member of the School Board, so I can randomly trifle with people's lives." A beat. "Oh wait, I already do that."

Re: After Dinner

"Oh, please, like anything you do is random."

The trifling with people's lives? Uh, duh, of course she did that.

"Well, there is that. I need new worlds to conquer, though." It wasn't that she didn't like her work, it had just gotten... rather routine, lately.

"... I'm hoping that's not literal," Ronan said, after a moment. "Or, well. At the very least, I'm hoping it's not overt. You'd probably do quite well running things behind the scene."
