I own nothing. I don't own any of the characters.
"Wow. Nice digs. I could seriously catch a minimum of twenty debilitating diseases just from breathing the air." Deadpool had meet The Cape at the same parking garage they first meet in, and then followed him to a building that might have been a closed waste recycling center.
"It wasn't my choice."
Why haven't we just stabbed him and collected our half a mill yet?
Because we are trying to score brownie points with Siryn.
"But if she's not around to see my good deeds, and no one tells her about them, how am I going to cash in the brownie points?"
"If you want someone to know about your good deeds, all you have to do is say so." A young lady with long brown hair walked into the building. "So you're the infamous Deadpool. Nice mask."
"Uh, thanks."
Dude she's totally hitting on you.
Don't do it! You will blow it with Siryn!
"Right Siryn. Sorry toots, I'm kinda interested in someone else right now."
"To bad, and the name's Orwell. So here's what I have on Fleming's new pet project." She pulled out a laptop and turned it to The Cape.
"Anything stand out?"
"Does that thing have solitary? We can play it together."
Solitary means one player.
Doesn't mean they can't give hints.
"Sorry, but no it doesn't. Anyways at first look, this is just a renovation project, but it becomes something more if you keep digging. I'm glad you thought that it was something else."
"So what is it?"
"Ooh, ooh. I know the answer to this." They both looked at Deadpool. "It's a laptop."
"Right. So Orwell, what did you find?"
"Nothing. On the renovation that is, but he has another project in the process. He's hoping that by giving people this benign project to scrutinize and find nothing wrong with, they won't look so hard at the next one."
"What's the next project?"
"Runway."
"What?"
"You asked what the next project was. It's Runway. I'm not sure it will live up to the hype, but I'm optimistic."
I think you're winning them over.
Just don't bring up that you applied for the show.
"Right. He wants to renovate the city's water treatment plant."
"If his people were in charge of the renovation he, could in theory, control what does and doesn't get filtered."
"Combine that with a scary report that I hijacked on its way to ARK's mainframe about their newest designer drugs, and he could target people with specific DNA." Cape got a very worried look on his face at the last bit of information. "What's wrong? You look like someone just stepped on your grave."
"Don't even joke about that. I've had people step on my grave, actually they were dancing on it but that's beside the point."
"I have to agree with him on that. But don't you remember Project Genome?"
"Crap."
"What channel does that show come on?"
I don't think that's a show they are talking about
It could be, but I don't think I'd watch it. I don't like Gnomes.
Please review, rate, rant, ect. Any feedback is appreciated.
