First Entrance

[biggerstingers]

The front door opens and a young woman of variable size backs in, voice raised.

“Hank! Have you even seen the size of this place? I didn’t know you could go down... that... I’m pretty sure there isn’t supposed to be anyone else here right now.”

Milliways, Janet Van Dyne. Wasp, Milliways. Try not to shoot each other. Much.

(Mostly) Tinytag: Wasp
OOC: This is me throwing this up and heading directly to bed, but it's open until it scrolls and who doesn't love slowtime?

Comments

"I can understand the words but your sentence is not making sense."

Milli-what now?

[hey35andholding]

She manages not to laugh. "Don't ask me about the name - I didn't come up with it. But yeah - this is a bar smack-dab at the end of the universe. And the booze is hellaciously wonderful."

[biggerstingers]

"How the heck does a bar pop up anywhere?" protests Janet, "Nothing personal, but you sound just a little crazy."

[hey35andholding]

"You don't even want to know. It's some kind of magical pocket universe...thing." She shrugs. "Honey, I'm one of the sanest people you'll meet here. There are aliens and mystics and elves and anything and everything I've LARPED when I was thirteen."

[biggerstingers]

"Oh not the LARPers," says Janet, "I'm not dealing with those jokers going down into the steam tunnels again. This time they are on their own."

[hey35andholding]

Clementine snickers. She likes this chick. "I think Bar can take care of them." She pats the structure behind her. "Bar this is...." she points at Janet and snaps her fingers.

[biggerstingers]

"Janet."

[hey35andholding]

"...Janet. And Janet, this is bar."

After a second, a napkin appears on top of the bar, reading "Hi, Janet! Nice hair" in a friendly-looking scrawl.

Clem holds out the napkin for Janet to look at, or perhaps keep.

[biggerstingers]

Blink. Blink.

"...Thanks?"

Janet takes the napkin and tucks it away.

"So where's the cameras?"

[hey35andholding]

"You're not on candid camera," Clementine promises her. "But if you're talking security cameras, I don't think it has any; just bouncers."

[biggerstingers]

"Right. So the bar has a personality, so does Tony's house I can deal."

"So between the furniture and me, do you have a name?"

[hey35andholding]

"Just as long as you can deal," Clem says. "Clementine Johnson, Reno SD."

[biggerstingers]

"Janet van Dyne," says Janet, "So is this supposed to end of the universe like an edge or what?"

[hey35andholding]

"The end," Clementine nods. "All of those explosions are the world..the worlds...collapsing."

[biggerstingers]

"And people are just having nachos while this is going on?"

[hey35andholding]

"Yep," Clem says. "I used to wonder if everyone was just stoned out of their minds all the time, but I guess everyone's agreed not to freak out about it. A cosmic convergence kinda thing."

[biggerstingers]

Janet shakes her head.

"That's just kind of nuts."

She won't even look at it in half an hour. So it goes.

[hey35andholding]

"LIFE is nuts," Clementine responds. "This is the good kind of nuts, the kind that won't likely shoot me."

[biggerstingers]

"I'll give you the not shooting part," concedes Janet, "But this is capital 'N' nuts. Mostly I just get, you know, lower case 'n', or maybe italics or something."

"...and that totally got away on me."

[hey35andholding]

"Not even bold print?" she teases. "Want some popcorn or something? Bar provides pretty well if you're hungry."

[biggerstingers]

"...Does it come sugared? No one else likes the sugared popcorn yet - I'll win 'em over."

[hey35andholding]

"It can if you want it to." Clem taps the bar, and sure enough the requested sugared popcorn appears.
