[Sitting crosslegged and upside down on the ceiling of the cafeteria, Mason munches on his belgian waffle, letting the syrup drip onto hapless diners below who may have had better luck keeping themselves attached to the furniture]

See, I've always did want to fly. Shouldn't it come with my standard set of powers, flying?

'Course, it's difficult to control, but I could get used to it, yeah?

Gwen. Gwennnyyyy. Before you go asking the Admiral for me powers back, what say you ask him for new powers I've not had before. Can you do that for me, love?

Right, cheers. I'm off to go nick all the lightbulbs out of the restrooms. Night showers are best.

Can't imagine that went over well.

From:

tucky

[She shrugs.]

Didn't have much of a choice, really. And there was usually other people living with us too; other family. You know, the Barge is the first time I got a room that's really all my own.

From:

maced_eggs

Is that right?

Fuck, I've always lived on my own. Reapers are perpetual squatters.

From:

tucky

Does that mean you move around a lot?

From:

maced_eggs

Near constantly. 'Bout once a month or so. Barge is the first place I've stayed in for so long ever since I died.

From:

tucky

Wow.

So where else've you lived?

From:

maced_eggs

Dunno. Wherever there's death, really. Seattle's been the latest but I've been moved around continents. They try to put you where you'll fit in with the locals.

From:

tucky

Continents? You've been, like, out of America?

From:

maced_eggs

Was reaping in England first. An' then of course they send us on our little work vacations whenever there's about to be a major disaster. Always a crime, that, but it's a bit like a reaper convention, you get to see all your old mates again.

From:

tucky

You been on vacation all over the world, then?

From:

maced_eggs

More of a work vacation, but yeah. Anywhere there's been a major disaster in the last forty or so years, that's where I've been.

From:

tucky

Wow. You're all worldly and shit.

[It makes her feel a little inadequate, because she's the exact opposite of worldly. She resolves to ask Barbara if she can learn a little bit about geography and other countries in their next school session.]

... Well, what would you say if I told you I never been anywhere? I mean, if I said I have been to Pennsylvania, and Maryland because it was right there near us, and then New York 'cause that's where I was taken to prison-- but no where else?

From:

maced_eggs

Tiff, I'm not worldly. I don't get to go to the little museums, see the sights. It's a bloody working vacation.

Dunno. I'd say it was a bit sad, your dying so young without being anywhere important.
