Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs!

[beforeyoucanblink]

It's a balmy fifty degrees today, cloudy with a chance of light rain later on. Clearly the Thing To Do is to visit your friendly neighbourhood Avengers Tower to drop in on the Friendly Neighbourhood Speed.

Knock-knock?

"Yeah, well. It's been a slow week."

[blinkandyoumiss.livejournal.com]

"So.

"You wanna do something?"

[quicksilverfast.livejournal.com]

"Sure. You got anything in mind?"

[blinkandyoumiss.livejournal.com]

"Not really."

[quicksilverfast.livejournal.com]

"Hmm. Well. Um. Everyone else is gone, it's raining, and there's cable... how does couch-cuddling sound?"

Tommy is vereh doubtful. If only because he doesn't really know Joy.

[blinkandyoumiss.livejournal.com]

Mock considering: "Weeeeeeell okay."

:D

"You're totaly a sap, you know that?"

[quicksilverfast.livejournal.com]

"What! Am not! It just seemed like... something that'd be a good idea?"

[blinkandyoumiss.livejournal.com]

Amused face.

And she pats the couch cushion next to her.

:D?

[quicksilverfast.livejournal.com]

Tommy's already there. HA.

"Soooo." He hands her the remote--LOOK HOW SENSITIVE HE IS. "Pick your poison?"

[blinkandyoumiss.livejournal.com]

THEN JOY IS ALREADY SNUGGLING INTO HIM.

HAH.

...Ooooooh, "Elementary Dear Data" is on.

"Oh, Dude, I love this one."

:D, Tommy?

[quicksilverfast.livejournal.com]

:D!

"I fell asleep toward the beginning of the Trek marathon... I've never really watched it before."

But he will for the womenz.

[blinkandyoumiss.livejournal.com]

:O

"This episode, or the show?"

D:

[quicksilverfast.livejournal.com]

"...the show?"

>

[blinkandyoumiss.livejournal.com]

D: D: D:


"...We're gonna be here a while."

[quicksilverfast.livejournal.com]

"I don't mind if you don't."

Beat.

"I feel really dumb now, cuz I don't even know any of the characters."

[blinkandyoumiss.livejournal.com]

"Where have you been living?"

D:

"Okay," she says, pointing to the screen, "That's..."

Insert rundown of the Star Trek characters to cross the screen here.

:D?

SUBURBIA. POPULATION: LAME.

Tommy's actually attentive, because dude, this is halfway interesting, and if Joy likes it then it doesn't make him too much of a nerd, right?

[blinkandyoumiss.livejournal.com]

Only as much of a nerd as it makes him.

She might have just broken off an explanation of Data for a gleeful cry of "Moriarty!"

GLEE. She <3s this episode.

[quicksilverfast.livejournal.com]

It's cute!

There may be hair-rufflings between the explanations for Joy. (Some things never change. Bart's/Joy's hair being rufflable is one of them.)

[blinkandyoumiss.livejournal.com]

She does not mind hair rufflings as much as Bart, tho.

...Ish.

Tolerant anyway.

Snuggles make up for it a lot.

So does Data and Geordi being totally awesome.

[quicksilverfast.livejournal.com]

Tommy snuggles very well, trufax.

[blinkandyoumiss.livejournal.com]

It is v. true.

Also: the next Star Trek episode is boring and long. Joy woefaces at it.

[quicksilverfast.livejournal.com]

Tommy kisses her gently, and smiles. "Thanks."

[blinkandyoumiss.livejournal.com]

:D

Joy approves of this kissing thing. 's good stuff.

"What for?"

[quicksilverfast.livejournal.com]

"For imparting secret fandom knowledge on me, obviously," Tommy laughs.
