[connor's bored, mostly. you can only go on so many lame moped trips crying about the return of the cave roof for so long before you really need a new hobby. that new hobby might even be one of the lame board games he swiped from the stores - for a lot of guilt, so he's kind of hoping they're not missing pieces (lets be honest, they probably are.)

anyways he texts some of his friends and tells them to come over because the more the merrier I guess and they could probably all use some time to chill together or something. besides then his friends can meet his other friends and that's always a fun idea.

it's easier to be surrounded by people than left alone with your thoughts, is really the long and short of it. so here we all are.]

Hey, you made it!

[ He chuckles. There's no way that would ever happen! ]

I'll try to do a little better than that.

[outstandingbalance]

I look forward to seeing how you do.

[A challenge.]

[devilsavocado]

Hope I don't disappoint.

[ Challenge accepted. ]

[outstandingbalance]

Do you disappoint women often, Matt?

[devilsavocado]

[ Matt chuckles, only frowning slightly. ]

You probably don't want me to answer that.

[outstandingbalance]

Ow—now that's an awful honest answer isn't it?

[devilsavocado]

Don't want you getting your hopes up.

[ He shrugs. Can you say emotional baggage? ]

I'm... not the most dependable guy.

[outstandingbalance]

I'd ask you if I look like the sort of girl who goes for dependable, but you have a strong excuse not to know the answer to that one.

[devilsavocado]

[ He laughs for real this time, eyebrows shooting out over his glasses. ]

Can't argue with that, can I?

[outstandingbalance]

Take my word for it. Dependable is a game for baristas and kindergarten teachers.

[devilsavocado]

[ Now that's interesting. Though she is Black Widow, after all. Should he really be surprised? ]

Nice way to put it.

[outstandingbalance]

[Look, her ex (can we call him an ex?) turned into a giant green monster when he lost his temper. Dependable is clearly not what Natasha is drawn to.]

I'm just being honest.

[devilsavocado]

[ Meanwhile Matt's ex is literally an assassin who enjoys killing and is probably coming back for season 2 as a ninja!zombie so. ]

Don't I know it.

[outstandingbalance]

[Anger and guilt issues on the one side, literal assassins on the other.

Let it not be say they're not being true to type.]

Which? That I'm being honest or that dependable isn't for everyone?

[devilsavocado]

[ That Classic Marvel feel. ]

The second one. Not like I can know for sure about the first.

[ Can't you Matt? Can't you? ]

[outstandingbalance]

[If she's lying, she's a very good liar. Which, to be fair, she is...

But is it really lying if it's a joke anyway?]

You could believe it. Amounts to about the same.
