It would help a lot! Somehow I don't think vacations in the Bahamas are your cup of tea. I mean. I'm just taking a wild guess. There's a puppy here I can't seem to train by myself, and... when I was on Earth-1, I was given a way to cross back to their universe and call them if we ever need help. It's a resource we didn't have before. That Earth... has a lot of heroes.
And since I'm speaking to one, how have you been? What have you been up to?

( the list of people who've actually made her sad is a different, more depressing list, but - you know, it's late at night and she's had a couple of drinks and a wrong number seems like such a safe way to shout frustration into the void about all the current ridiculous ills of her life. there's an appealing anonymity, so there's also a delay before she texts back again, debating - )
It's Gwen. Wynne-York, if you're fishing to google my bum.
( that's a joke. but hey, it's also a name on a guest list for the white house tomorrow representing a philanthropic foundation that frequently partners with wynne-york the elder for fundraising events around the world. fingerguns. )

Bored? Tsk. Merely passing time until I can be of use in this contest.
The word I would use is 'confounded.'

Look, you try finding a trash can he can't get into. Even without the padding, he's a giant among wolfhounds. It's an impossible task. Maybe I need to look at sending him to obedience school. Or... is there a superhero that can just... talk to dogs? I bet that'd be easier than trying to train him.

Let me see, I've seen: superspeed, incredible archery skill, nuclear... something, elemental tech, someone who can turn themselves into a steel statue-thing, a former assassin and robotic suits. If there is a dog whisperer among superheroes, I've not met them yet. You might try working with the actor dog whisperer, though. ;)
I'm giggling in the middle of a checkout line, though. I guess that's *your* superpower. Making me laugh. Which is really nice, actually.

because im exceedingly charming and you cant resist me, of course!
[ After a moment's delay: ]
Well, Ms. Wynne-York, two things:
One, I think we need to establish some kind of upper limit on how many people I can crowbar for you. Three is reasonable - maybe four.
And two, I think you'll have more self-control than you let on at the dinner tomorrow. Though if you do happen to imbibe and let slip a few obscenities around me, consider yourself forgiven.
[ Take some time to let it sink in, then: ]
I'm so sorry, where are my manners? This is President Bartlet.
[ POW! Right in the kisser! ]

You don't 'gotta', you *do*. And it means a lot to me, Lena. I heard, about the jerk who busted into your building and threatened you--Detective Sawyer told me. Are you okay?
That's a whole lot of weird that you shouldn't have to deal with alone. So you don't.

i never will.
who's going to see it? it's not exactly going to be a mobile thing, it'll sit in some spot and create delicious confections for me. stop being such a spoilsport, wheres the cheeky, adventurous marauder i remember? he was so attractive and sexy, that moony. wonder where he's gone.
you offered out of pity! and honestly remus, i thought you were supposed to be the brains

( what the fuck she has made a terrible error
like so many errors
literally nothing but errors has led to this moment in time except for the part where she has the presence of mind to screencap that for posterity. )

[sure he doesn't]
Nah, they're not even that frozen anymore. It's the peas we took outta the freezer for his ankle when his high-ness fell down the porch stairs.

Damn it. I should have known that there was no superhero cool enough to have that paticular ability. Except one, but I guess even being powered by solar energy has it's limits. Stupid solar power. :P And I'll take it under consideration. I'm sure I'll be able to just call him up and get him to come over some... what's a day you work? I don't want to take up one of our days off together with it.
I did tell you that there may have been rumors about my super power. I'm pretty pleased with it. And, luckily, this one doesn't require a costume to use, so I'm free to use it whenever I want. Like when you're checking out with groceries, apparently, or when we're both at work and probably shouldn't be texting. All things considered, I think I got the best one.

Carl. And before you ask, no, I wasn't around when he GOT high, just for the aftermath.
I let him have like three frozen peas, then replaced them with wasabi peas. He hasn't noticed yet. Better clear a bathroom for tomorrow morning.

Was it mixed with anything, or...?
( what does she do. what would a reasonable person do in this situation. do reasonable people get themselves into situations like this. probably not. but that's why she will have better stories for her grandchildren than they will - )
In that case Wesley Lode (you have to check it isn't his twin brother but you'll know because Tad moves a lot slower), my father in a sort of preemptively corrective way (maybe just menace him with it?) before he can flirt with your wife and Lord Marbury because I've heard it's only a matter of time.
( have you ever seen a cat fuck up the landing and just walk off like nothing happened and it doesn't know what you're talking about? yeah. )

Might tomorrow. Right now I doubt he feels anything.

Nope. Straight.
In retrospect, it wasn't the best we could have done. It was cheap stuff designed to get college kids drunk.
How about you, Mr. Lyman?

Technically Barry runs as fast as I do, but if you think Ghost ever needs some serious exercise, we can ask him. Iris apparently won't let him get a dog. It'll be the best of both worlds; literally. Haha! Well, my success rate with puppies is a work in progress if my training with Mon-El is anything to go by. Annnnd I work Monday to Friday, thank Rao. I was 24/7 when I was Cat's assistant. What days are *you* off?
You don't need a costume when you look so good in street clothes. Trust me. I've got my phone under my desk, it's good. Snapper doesn't see it. He's too busy yelling at someone right now, actually.
And since I'm here, I got a few groceries for dinner. We are going to cook, for a change! Together.

Well if there's a puppy that needs training AND superheroes, how can I resist?
I've been good. Working with my father, mostly, which is a less hostile environment than it used to be. Although he's been pretty fixated on recruiting aliens into the military since the president joined Team Alien, so you can probably expect to hear from him soon. At least he doesn't want you dead?
You know, as I typed all that, coming back to the DEO sounded even more appealing.

My hope is that you won't be able to, basically. Speaking of superheroes, there's a new vigilante in town--Guardian? His suit's made of lead, to keep me in the dark on purpose. I've got no idea who he might be. The voice changer thing he uses is really weird.
And I'm not at all surprised to hear that. It's better than pitting them against each other to the death in illegal fighting rings where bored, rich humans place bets. That's a nice change, and I hope it stays that way. I'd like to consider him an ally.
Mission: accomplished! :D

That, I think, can be done.
I think I'll leave Lord Marbury for Leo. Denying him the satisfaction would be cruel.
[ It happens to the best of us, Gwen. What matters is that you can walk away from this. In a few weeks, you'll probably even be able to laugh about it. ]
This is usually where people get flustered. You're taking the shock remarkably well.
