[ she has an uneasy feeling as to what could make adam's body, in whatever condition it had been in prior to the doorknob bashing, bounce back to mint condition. what does this kid do in his spare time? ]
Or Wonderland's gotten the memo that it's not very popular. As much as being a guy was fun, it wasn't. Still have no appreciation for what your gender goes through.
[ she's really glad she can wake up and feel happy and not be happy. ]
[There's only so much you can say about having an archangel nesting in your ass and planning on using you as a vessel for an Apocalypse that's already long over, and for the most part Adam prefers to keep the Michael talk to a minimum where he can.
On at least one point, Michael and Wonderland have something in common: neither the angel or the place seems to care if they're popular.]
Better hope it doesn't happen again and nobody has to develop any.
[ cora's not really sure where to start on how he's healed, bruise possibly gone and all, but she figures that, if she can figure out how the hell to ask him, she will. the things he says are strange and difficult to comprehend, as angels are real and bad news, but it never really hurts to learn more about the crazy shit within wonderland. knowing her luck, she'd walk right into it. ]
Thanks for your help, anyway.
[ even though, truthfully, he hadn't been much of a help at all. he'd only confirmed that going to the gazebo and switching genders hadn't been a cora-only event. but to know someone else wasn't as confident and happy in their new form did help. just a little. ]
[Now Cora's just being polite. Adam knows he hasn't done much to help anybody with their Wonderland problems, unless being a good sport when Cora gets lippy counts.]
Not like I did much. But you're welcome. Thanks for the text.
[Because if she'd sent it to check up on him, she didn't have to.]
hey I was wondering if you wanted to play some videogames or something and uh there have been some more people showing up from beacon hills like bad people so uh if you see someone named jackson or matt or kate or uh jennifer or peter you might wanna avoid them remember when I said monster problem back home? yeah well not it's here
[As one of a very limited pool of friendly acquaintances, when Isaac catches Adam in an all right mood, he gets a friendly greeting.
The rest of the text requires more thought. The last time someone had warned him about imminent danger, it'd been a demon warning him about a serial killer; he's willing to take Isaac seriously when he's passing along a warning as a result. Better still, he's almost positive Isaac's not a demon withholding need-to-know info like Crowley, so...]
Sure if you want.
And they're all monsters?
[Only with people around here can he talk about video games and monsters within two lines of a text message.]
[ caroline's really drunk if she's calling this loser. ever since lena's disappearance from wonderland, caroline's felt a little lost. the bar on the fifth floor has found her, though. scrolling through her communicator, she misreads adam's name for that of matt. how she does that, we'll never really know. she decides to sing eternal flame, the song she had once sang to matt. it seems a bit mean to do so, don't you think? ]
Close your eyes, give me your hand, darlin' Do you feel my heart beating? Do you understand? Do you feel the same? Am I only dreaming? Is this burning an eternal flame?
[ and she'll conveniently hang up when the kissing bit in the video happens. oops. ]
Edited (she's not texting him, wow ...) Date: 2014-04-28 09:23 am (UTC)
[Who the hell is this and why are they using the word "flame" in his presence? Adam only answers out of curiosity for why a stranger is dialing up his device, only to be met with someone's karaoke butt dial.
This event needs to lay off and fast before people start screaming Metallica at him through the phone.]
[ uh ... why does matt not know who this is? he so didn't take her off speed dial, did he? caroline is a master of almost everything, but being completely wasted and texting is, unfortunately, not one of her countless skills. ]
[Sorry, Caroline, you're not even close, not even within the same zip code. If they'd been speaking in person, Adam would be giving her the slow, carefully enunciated answer of someone speaking to a child.]
[ if they were face-to-face, she wouldn't even be talking to him. if he could see her face, she'd be giving him her "what the fuck" look, too bad she's giving it to her phone. ]
[It's a good thing they have nothing to do with each other, because the last thing a guy needs is a vampire up in his business, let alone a drunk one. Since it's only fair:]
[ she's frowning hardcore at the guy she's mashing her keys at. she takes her time in typing out her name, you know, since it's important. ]
Caroline.
[ she should add a few !!! to make the impact smack him across the face like a flame eating at skin, but she can't really be bothered backspacing, now that she's sort of lying with her cheek against the counter of the bar and her elbows are resting on it. ]
Sorry. Tthiught you were someone e lse. Don't no how, you r name starts with A.
You could've been using it as a text starter. "Nice weather we're having, look out for them weirdos..." Takes the sting out of the 10 Most Wanted list.
[He can't resist teasing Isaac, but that doesn't prevent him from still taking the rest seriously. Very seriously.]
Kinda how?
["Eat people" kinda? "Possess people" kinda? "Might snap and go on a killing spree"?]
[They've entered the belligerent stage, apparently. This a real laugh coming from someone who'd called up the wrong person and now won't stop texting.]
[Why this. This is one of those text messages no one expects to get (unless you're friends with Isaac Lahey, it seems) or can really be prepared for. This is weird.
Also? A little stomach-churning. Not because of the relationship talk, no, not that... but the word "alcohol" makes him want to groan after the Famine event and the withdrawal symptoms he's been dealing with since then.
Adam is resigned to relationship counselling while stone cold sober. After a few minutes, he thinks up a reply.]
Scott?
[The only conclusion Adam comes to is that this is about Scott.]
[ Of course Isaac has to snark back. ] No one other than you actually does stuff like that . hate to break it to ya
Jackson turns into an overgrown iguana and kills people under Matt's command ... But he's not aware of it . I don't think...
I actually don't know what the hell is going on between them but uh naturally jackson has a personality that makes you want to punch him in the face and just don't trust Matt enough to turn your back on him in a bad situation..
[If you're wondering if Adam's failed to inherit the gene that promotes bluntness and an occasional lack of tact, you're wrong, it's there. He's daddy's not-so-dearest.
The rest of his reply takes some thought. A lot of thought.]
How is that "kinda"? Sound like monsters to me. Do they look human?
[Everyone from this supernatural-infested hometown of theirs seems to at least look human, this is getting to be a real problem. Avoiding the hell out of everyone for safety's sake is still a tempting thought some days.]
[ there's something wrong with clarisse and she can feel it. wonderland hasn't ever depowered her before, so she isn't sure what it is at first, she just knows that she feels wrong. it could just be an off day, but she's never been this off before. she went out for target practice earlier and missed every single one. it's like she doesn't even know how to shoot anymore, and it's the same with every other weapon she tries to practice with.
the frustration is clear in her voice. she knows she and adam don't have the best relationship — it's more of a work in progress than anything — but, well, she can't go to anyone else because she can't be sure if it's just her or all non-mortals, and adam is the only mortal she knows that isn't rachel. she could go to rachel, but she has a feeling asking rachel to punch her would be some kind of violation of her truce with percy. (she doubts rachel would, anyway.) she can't be 100% positive adam will be willing to be part of her little experiment, either, but she needs to figure this shit out. she might even ask nicely. sort of. ]
Adam, it's Clarisse. I need you to do something for me. [ okay, so she's not really asking, but... ] Can you meet me outside the mansion ASAP? [ there, that was a question. at least she's not demanding he do so. she's trying. ] It's important.
