Love Springs Eternal (??)

[bright_and_blue]

Who: ERRYBODY
What: It's Valentine's Day, and there are matchmaking notices everywhere. Here's an open log for one and all to post their shenanigans, meet ups, freak outs, and whatever else they're going to do about this.
When: forward dated to Feb. 14
Where: All over Aqures Ixen
Warnings: Ridiculousness.

[Plastering the city are notices matching up all of the Heroes of Light with one another, both the best and the worst. Moogles are having a grand old time handing them out and hanging them up, and are encouraging Heroes to speak with their top matches.

Naturally, reactions to this are mixed. Some Heroes are intrigued, some annoyed, some offended. Despite their feelings or misgivings, the rest of the city is still celebrating Valentine's Day as well, and now the thoughts of love are everywhere.

OOC: This is an open log for everyone to use for Valentine's Day stuff! Feel free to make your own prompts.]

She chuckles. "You don't say."

Small smile still plastered to her face, Aya tips her glass of... water.

Well, it's something.

"I can relate to that. Thankfully, though... humanity seems to be doing just fine on its own when I left it." Makes her feel less guilty about being here. It means that she can do what needs to be done and not worry about loose ends.

"I can't be too sure 'a Mars without me there. Who knows what's gone on since I'm gone." They'd be fine, but Sparks certainly doesn't think that way. Something occurs to him and he makes a face, though.

"Here's the thing, though. Y'know Barkeep? He's from Mars. I know him. He's supposed to be here from a few months ahead 'a me. But he said I was still there. He said I was--" Dating a totally awesome Troubleshooter. But that detail, while incredible to him, isn't important now. "He said I was still there. He thinks it's some sorta alternative universe nonsense. Like parallel dimensions, I guess. I dunno. He knows all about that sorta stuff, what with the Force Galactic powers he has 'n all. Well, had."

He shrugs. The multiverse is a weird place.

Aya is drinking her water when she coughs.

Yeah, she knows of Barkeep, who came as third on her suggested matches.

Rather than focusing on that, she just pounds her chest and returns to the subject, giving Sparks a sidelong glance. "I don't know about alternate universe, but..." She shrugs. "Someone did tell me about how time works differently here than home. Maybe that's the case there."

At least, she hopes so... It's a nicer thought than worrying about her being gone from home for the last several months.

"Reckon that could be the case. Hopefully it is. But multiple universes are totally a thing. I know, cuz I once helped save 'em all."

Now he's bragging, even if it was true.

"'S why I know we'll get this one. One world compared to all worlds is a total walk in the park. It's just, y'know. A little more complicated than expected."

[chondriosome]

Aya sighs. "Why am I not surprised?"

If her current situation has been any indicator, she at least now knows the existence of other worlds.

She catches that bragging. She is used to bragging. Aya is not a bragger, though.

"Complicated, huh? Good thing it's got you around. Sounds like you're the expert."

She might be joshing. Just might.
