Hello Avenger fans!: Kay I'm just going to cut strait to the chase this time, 1. I don't own anything except Evee plus plotline idea, everybody else or thing I don't own that is easily recognizable. 2. This is pure madness written for fun. 3. Reality's a pain in the patooty & thus less updates. 4. ….I'll just get on with it then.
Chapter 3.
1:25 in the morning is not a good time.
1:25 in the morning is especially not a good time when one must be up at say 7:00?
1:25 in the morning and realizing you just broke your favorite teacup is just plain awful. Not to mention disheartening and only an additional seasoning to an already dim disposition.
In short, Evee Vicky Violet had just accidentally broken her favorite China teaset from Teavana, and was suffering from the horrible disease of insomnia to boot.
She was out of milk. She was plum pissed off, and lastly there was a man.
A man in… her room?
A man lying on her floor?
A man lying on her carpet?!
A man now passed out, whilst lying on her carpet, drooling! Yuck.
A man she had hit with her teacup out of shear instinct firstly.
Of which she had then grabbed the next closest object, being a lamp that Arnold Schwartznagger could have been proud of, and proceeded to pummel the strange man hard until he had passed out on her floor!
Now to many people out there, for example on the planet Atutatoo, the act of the female beating the crap out of the male would have been the initiation of a bizarre mating ritual, with promises of twenty offspring to follow. Much to the horrors of many over-domineering males in other parts of the universe with the lacking necessary skulls of Iron that the Atutatoo males have developed into literal biological helmets, in terms of survival, during these "love rights".
In other places like on the planet Ole there is the art of the female stabbing whatever male she so desires before sucking out his eyes and then taking what the Earthen's would call, "pleasure". While further still some female species have decided to forgo the whole thing and just obliterate those of opposite gender entirely like on the planet Marm.
This is seen even amongst most of the dumber dimwits of the universe as a bit extreme, but the general point is there are many beings of the universe that would have supported Evee Vicky Violet's first actions towards her new house "guest".
Particularly upon his untimed arrival, into her bedroom of all places!?
It was if nothing else, downright rude.
Evee huffed to herself as she stood in her bedroom. Hair falling out of the top- knot she usually put it in at night. She took a few moments simply gathering up the remains of her more passive nature. This involved some self-pinching and a bit of self-hugging with her arms firmly wrapping themselves around her only now slightly quivering form. If one was to be completely honest there were also just a few tears involved, but to give them any further attention would be pointless.
No instead it must be said that it was the return of Evee's more passive nature, which if given a voice of it's own may not in fact sound that passive at all, that was taking the metaphorically speaking, "bull by the horns" during this situation.
Much to the still shocked aspect of Evee's brain. To further study this situation let us review the dialogue between both parts of Evee Vicky Violets mind.
Passive Nature walks in, "WHAT THE BLOODY HELL HAPPENED HERE?"
Shocked Nature responds, "THERE'S A MAN! MAN!"
Passive Nature palms face, " I can see that. You twit. Good lord, I leave for a short vacation once a year and just look at us! Will you look at US!"
Passive Nature begins mumbling derogatory things, one eye surveying the room around them.
Shocked Nature starts to sob, "WE COULD HAVE BEEN!...hicup hiccup…WE COULD HAVE BEEN!...KILLED AMONST OTHER THINGS! KILLLELEE!"
SLAP.
Passive Nature waves a finger in Shock's face, red cheek in all, "They'll be none of that! You hear me in there! None of that! This is no time to panic!"
Shock whimpers, a little with one hand rubbing the now sore flesh, "Bbbb…bu…bbbutt?"
Passive glares at Shock, voice lowered, "Not another word."
Shock squeaks, "But?"
Passive's glare turns murderous, "Do you want me to slap you again?"
Shock just numbly shakes their head a placating no. This seems to appeal to Passive who then puts a calming hand on Shock's shoulder, "There, there let's turn a light on, for starters. Hmmm?"
Turning a light on was what Evee Vicky Violet then did first, after her surprise encounter with The Man that had decided to enter her home without permission.
As she made her way to the light switch a thought crossed Evee's mind that at least tonight she had decided to sleep in a long pair of pajama's rather than have gone simply nude. Yes, she now saw the necessity of pajama's for every single night for the rest of existence.
Pajama's are a most interesting thing invented on the Planet Earth. It has long been debated by visiting scholars to the Planet Earth known as the Philosophers of Wanning Wax what it is that the actually Pajama's purpose is?
When the Philosopher's had first come to the Planet Earth they had thought that Pajama's alongside pitchforks were some sort of queer ceremonial greeting garb that the people of earth all unanimously put on at night. When further, investigation was made by one brave green colored giant headed Philosopher named Waz; that no the garb was anything but worn for civil polite, "how do you do's."
The Philosopher's were reminded of all that talk about "cannibalism" near the Silver Plate Galaxy. What had once seemed easily dismissed, "As what have those judgmental idiotic nonsensical Pirates created now," was abruptly considered perhaps not so idiotic but rather prophetic? As the Philosopher's made one or two more attempts at conversation, much to many an Earth Farmer's horror, it was discovered that Earth being's were in fact, "a very very hostile bunch of pitch fork wielding savages!"
And so with a shot gun bullet or two behind them the Philosopher's of Wanning Wax made their green-headed way home post haste! Never to understand the reason behind a pair of polka-dotted Pajama's for battle gear.
Evee Vicky Violet's pajama's were pink with little polar bears printed on top. They also happened to be quite comfy when one was asleep in a warm bed.
Which at the moment was not Evee's position.
Evee was observing her "guest", who she had completely knocked out with a lamp.
Her first thought as she very quietly crept over to where The Man lay was that he was …smaller than she had originally thought. Fit to be sure, but less beefy football (a queer earthen sport)playing guy, and more swimmer building slim jim (an odd earthen food).
All of which wasn't such a bad thing to Evee, if anything it made it all the more easier for her to wrap her head around the whole night and deal with The Man on the Floor with a swimmer build.
Shaking her head of that last thought, she saw he had dark black hair slicked back that due to her pummeling had been skewed roughly. It was covering half of his face so that she couldn't quite get a read on that yet.
As she continued her scan she found his clothes to be extremely interesting. He reminded her of a cross of someone from the movie Underworld with the black and green leather jacket material. To some long lost cast member of the show Game of Thrones what with all the subtle but ever prevalent armor he wore, that one just could not ignore.
As she gazed at him she ignored a strange tingling sensation starting in her pit of a soul that was near her stomach to the brain wave of ever growing excitement?! It was with a bizarre bout of euphoria then as she decided, "To H. E. Double Hockey Sticks with everything!", and decided to touch him.
Previously it has been noted that Evee Vicky Violet had a BIG SECRET.
If she had been able to remember this SECRET perhaps she would not have been as shocked by what happened next?
Sadly though, Evee did not remember her own BIG DARK SECRET, and thus was just about as surprised by everyone else in the Universe was at that moment.
It was one of THOSE moments! The kind that people write about all the time when supposed lover's of every corner of the galaxy meet eyes. It was the kind of moment that stops hearts, drowns rabbits, suffocates tabletop aliens and causes black holes to swallow themselves. It was the kind of moment that ended things.
This was greatly true for the Devo Galaxy, which at that same moment in Space and Time decided to no longer exist and self-destructed in a fiery wave of ecstasy! Blinding all the other Galaxies around it by proxy.
It was the kind of moment that had happened during the BIG ONE.
"THE BIG BANG", in People of Earth terms.
Evee had reached down and brushed The Man's dark hair aside to reveal his face. When IT happened. She felt IT before she saw IT, with her hand still attached to The Man's brow she watched as his beautiful aristocratic pale skin faded to that of a deep deep deep can't get any deeper, dark blue!
His skin was ice cold, but to Evee he felt as warm as the sun.
She watched in sheer confusion as her hand in turn, started to turn blue! Not out of frostbite, but simply to change?
She felt her body pulling almost hypnotically to match the changes that were occurring on him, strange dark lines formed on both of them, when she felt IT!? SOMETHING IN HER MIND WAS BREAKING!
It was like the room filled with an intense heat and she felt her eyes changing their structure! A painful stretching feeling started waging war in her body as she watched the man groan as if in pain when he turned from blue to a deep dark midnight BLACK. And then ever so briefly his eyes fluttered open with shades of the entire rainbow if that was possible?!
He then groaned in pain again, his eyes shutting in a grimace as his body began twisting changing again!
It was with a part of Evee's brain she hadn't fully registered that an Internal voice shoved the Passive voice of her to the side screaming, "NO! NO! NOT NOW! NOT SAFE! NOT NOW! YOU MUST HIDE HIM! HIDE YOURSELF! QUICK NOW! CHANGE BACK STUPID!"
Upon the orders of her distressed splitting mind, Evee reached out to The Male Being Like Her and forced her way into his sub-consciousness long enough to "tie" them to each other and "bind" him to his original human state.
In the brief moments Evee shared his mind, she felt more than saw anything, however after having to not only transform herself but "him" into just another everyday run of the mill Earth man and woman.
Well…she was as her Passive Nature Voice said, "Exhausted."
Meanwhile the Internal Voice wherever it had come from breathed a sigh of sweet relief and then promptly fainted.
Evee then took her human hands away from his rather nice face and laid on the floor beside him. Unaware of why it was she felt she needed to. If she had been a Native of the planet Marm she would have been killed just for touching him.
She tried to register the fact that it felt as though the whole universe had just gotten a whole lot smaller? And still what had happened had only occurred in the spasm of a few thirty seconds, thirty-five to be technical about it.
She looked at the man beside her. His face inches from her own.
"Where once was one, now is two?" she said abstractly.
Then closed her eyes to the darkness of fatigue, wondering if this was how Jen from the movie the Dark Crystal had felt when he had found Kira? Or how the whole point of existence seemed to just be an excuse for reasons to use Irony?
Or how in the bloody world she had DONE what she just DID?
OR FOR THAT MATTER WHERE HAD SHE LEARNED HOW TO SHAPESHIFT LET ALONE WHAT THE STRANGE MAN'S NAME WAS?
The strange man named Loki.
Loki who she had hit with a lamp.
Who was lying on her floor no longer drooling thankfully.
The man named Loki, sleeping beside her.
In her bedroom!
In her apartment, Chinese food restaurant below it and all!
The man named Loki.
…?...
"It's too late for all this!" she said indignantly, getting off the floor. Only to resume her position next to Loki now with plenty of pillows and a quilt, after all as the people of Bazzooah would say, sounding remarkably similar to those Earthen people called Jamaicans, "When odd things hap 'pen in dis life, ya may as well get comfy and just roll on by with it, mahn!"
Thus Evee for the first time slept beside Loki.
Leaving the light switch of the room to flick off, entirely by itself, which it then did.
