❄ fifth reminder

[echidna]

[ around mayfield ; sunday afternoon ]





[ If you leave your home Sunday afternoon, chances are you have seen one of these fliers stuck up somewhere. Telephone poles, mailboxes, windshields, store windows, no location is safe from Jade and her roll of scotch tape.

She has even plastered some unconventional locations with fliers, shoved them into books at the library, taped them to tables and shoved them under doors and into mailboxes so that you might not even have to leave your home to see it.

Chances are you see her while she's hanging some up, or she might even be passing you one (or more) while asking; ]

Have you seen this troll?

[ phone ]

Hi, I was just checking to see if anyone had any information about my fliers!

I am serious about that reward too. [ She giggles. ] But that's a secret!

Well, I guess he is pretty good at time stuff.

[dutying.livejournal.com]

I suppose I will.. [ She tucks some hair behind her ear, her look turning a bit more curious. ]

Have you considered the possibility yet that maybe he was droned and moved somewhere else in the city by the town?

[echidna]

Well Doctor Varleyson, I have news for you! You have tangled with the wrong girl, and the wrong girl's not-brother! You are going to pay sincerely for this.

[echidna]

Yeah, and sick beats.

[echidna]

My idea of cute is perfectly normal, and I'm actually a lot older than I look!

[ no jade...no. ]

[echidna]

As long as it's in the near non-specific future, I'll be happy.

[echidna]

Okay. [ though she doesn't sound particularly happy about it. ] It's just...weird, hiding this kind of thing.

[echidna]

[ wow this sounds so hauntingly familiar. ]

Um, wow that's pretty new! I'm Jade Harley, it's nice to meet you.

[ Jade pauses her papering, hugs the stack she's holding to her chest and turns to look at him. She smiles sadly, too distracted at the moment to be surprised by the fact that he's being helpful, nice. ]

Well, at least I know one place I don't have to look.

[crusthatecean.livejournal.com]

I don't know, Jade. If in the future, you go crazy and kill one of your human companions, and I knew about it now but telling you couldn't possibly change anything, would you want to know?

Personally, I don't fucking need to know about my future failures.

[echidna]

I- [ the question kind of stings. ] Um, I don't know. Maybe.

[windplay.livejournal.com]

[ It took all of his might to not snort and giggle out loud. No Egbert, no. This is not the time to be revealing your true identity yet! The gambit hasn't even blown to it's full potential rung. ]

No. I am afraid it is you who is going to pay sincerely, Miss Harley.

Remember you are at my mercy, and I can do inexplicable things to your dear alien brother. Do you really want that?

[crusthatecean.livejournal.com]

Okay. Well, I'll keep that in mind if I ever acquire any damaging future knowledge of you.

I can't say if he'd want to know or not. I mean, he seemed kind of upset that I didn't tell him about something else that happens. But he also said he'd trust my judgment on awful future happenings, and my judgment is that he can't handle knowing this.

[putmeinstitches.livejournal.com]

Older than you look, huh?

[He looks at her appraisingly for a moment.]

...then I'd put you at about ten.

[Look at you, Loki, picking on little girls. You ought to be ashamed. But you're not.]

[worstvikingever]

Great. I'll keep that in mind.

[ironicjournal.livejournal.com]

Sup, Harley. You can call me Strider. [ because he never got a first name i mean because he's so cool ]

[misterwwizard.livejournal.com]

Wishin' he would though even though this place was givin' me some people to be talkin' to it can still be awful lonely at times and Kar "got" me. Kinda sad that his hate is so platonic there's a chemistry between us that's hard to be reproducin'. Though by some odd chance he ends up showin' up at my doorstep you'll be the first one to be knowin', alright?

[always tries to make it about him. Yep. Though he stops in this case because god dammit Jade looks so sad. A sadness that, he, can kind of relate to. In an act of desperation for friendship and physical comfort, he extends an offer to Jade...]

You... you need a hug, Jade?

[echidna]

I, uh- [ She feels like she should be a little agitated, but it dies quickly. Then he offers a hug and she realizes that yes, she really does need one, and she doesn't even mind that it's him. Weird as it might be, she's kind of glad that it's him. ] Yeah.

[ She doesn't say anything else, drops her stack of fliers and throws her arms around his shoulders and hugs. ]

[misterwwizard.livejournal.com]

[for a moment, for Eridan, all is right in the world as he throws his arms around her. The warmth of another was something he hadn't felt in a long time, or in perhaps ever, and it felt...good. He really doesn't know what else to do here, so he just lets it linger for awhile.]

I'll be keepin' a' eye out for him.
