I WRITE A LOT AND ANGST. Tw: drugs, abuse, captivity, injury, disease, GAYS

“Oh man that sounds like you got a real short stick. I seemed to be somebody who didn’t care about anything or anybody but herself and enjoyed getting into fights. Left me with some sleeping problems.”

“That sounds like a common denominator around us, not gonna lie. But I heard there were some of us out there that knew what was happening and were aware of this shit? Dunno what you heard.”

Angel laughed “They’re all like they live in another world that family, but maybe thats just because I don’t get the family concept?” she offered, continuing to lean against the other, easily being able to view her as an older sister almost. “You don’t have any street cred, you have to hang around on the street more for that, and you’re always in here on your computer, I once didn’t see you move for 12hrs” she teased. “And you’d much rather pneumonia if you see what Lib makes me do because shes training me as the next leader, I have to do way more than the others”

“For sure, kid. Their own planet of redheads. And you tell me, those same redheads are the only family I've ever had. And you and most kooks in this place.” She said with a smile. She gasped dramatically and nudged Angel a little harder, “How dare you. You'd be surprised. And for your information, it was sixteen hours not twelve. And I successfully brought down a North Korean satellite all by my lonesome and kicked so much ass in Fortnite on the same day.” She shook her head, “I’ve seen some and I’ve had some. You keep your training, I’ll keep my pneumonia. You down for some hot chocolate? I won't put alcohol in yours.”

“He’s a whore for anyone who feeds him, you know that” the brunette grumbled, narrowing her eyes at the other “I could always force it out of you?” she offered, watching as Allayo only wagged his tail more when Lennox came closer. “I still need to care for the biological creators in some way, mainly for self preservation” she said simply and picked up the other with no effort and threw her carefully over her shoulder “Alie learns fast, she isn’t a child that needs constant monitoring, it’s the computer chip for a brain, it actually remembers things unlike biological brains”

Lennox narrowed her eyes back at Renee, “I like to think our relationship runs a little bit deeper than that.” She kept ruffling Allayo’s fur, scratching behind his ears like she knew the pup liked, “I’m like a tomb, you won't get anything. That’s why our enemies know not to kidnap me.” she fired back. She was about to retort with some smug commentary when Renee lifted her up like she weighed nothing. She groaned at the pain from her illness yet she did not put up a fight, “...The hell, Stefan. Where are you taking me? Also, bridal style would be better, if I may be so bold.” She huffed, letting her head lull down tiredly, “Biological brains know how to have fun, though. Whatever.”

Jaclyn chuckled, hopping up on the desk and taking a seat, swinging her feet slowly. “I do, and it’s worked so far hasn’t it?” She replied with a shrug of her shoulders as she hooked her foot around Lennox’s chair, pulling her slightly closer. “Awe, does the doll have a hangover? I’m sorry, if I had known I would’ve brought you some Tylenol.” She spoke with a hint of teasing in her voice as she reached out to play with Lennox’s hair.

“Ah, so do something illegal to prove there’s faults in the system to get hired. Maybe some day I’ll sneak back in here and take you up on that job offer. For the time being I enjoy the thrill of breaking into highly secured facilities.” Jaclyn chuckled at the blush the girl was gaining slowly leaning in, just close enough to brush over her lips. “I mean, I did get myself some flight powers before I got here.” She mumbled before fully leaning in, her chapped lips meeting the others.

Lennox brushed some hair behind her ear, “It definitely has, babe. It definitely works.” The pink-haired girl let Jac pull her closer and she inched into her touch. It felt so nice... She could get used to that. “I wish it was a hangover,” she said softly, “I got a not very glamorous kidney infection and it’s draining my life-force.” She almost whined, feeling how she was letting her guard down with the other girl.

“Oh, yeah. It’s quite common in these days of internet madness. Tech companies know to keep their enemies close, as does the Heroes Union. And you’d definitely bring some much needed excitement into these sterile halls...” She drawled on as Jaclyn came closer and kissing her back, a surprisingly soft kiss considering how they always tended to get hot and heavy pretty fast.

Jaclyn smiled, pushing her hair out of her face. She quickly shrugged her leather jacket off, stretching out her arms. “It can’t be worn out if I’m still finding new things about you, darling.” She spoke while looking around, the lab intriguing her. There were lots of gadget that intrigued her, but the girl Infront of her did more so.

“Ah, I am pretty good aren’t I? I think I’ll be alright on my own though, I don’t think they would approve of my other work. Plus, siding with anyone just seems… Dull. I like my independence. Even if it would be nice to see your lovely face everyday.” The woman answered, stepping closer to Lennox and a smirk replacing her smile.

Oh, God. This girl was going to kill her before her dumb kidneys even had the chance. With her compliments and aloofness and ugh. “You think you’re so smooth, huh?” She was. “Like they say, flattery will get you anywhere.” She cleared a spot on her desk and patted it, “Wanna take a seat? I’d offer you a tour but I can’t really move without the whole world spinning.” 

“I feel you. I do, that's how I thought before I joined the Union. At least before I hacked them so they would hire me. Worked out like a charm.” Lennox just kept blushing. Like a dumb schoolgirl. “So... You just wanted to see me at my workplace? Or are you here to maybe release me from my 9 to 5 chains?”

“Lock you in a jar and shove you in a cupboard” she said simply, before she came closer, her systems scanning the others vitals and they weren’t at all looking good and it made the cyborg purse her lips “Your vitals tell me otherwise.” she said simply. Her gaze went down to the super dog, of course she couldn’t blame the creature since he knew Lennox and Eva as well as he knew her, that scared puppy that had been injected with whatever gene serum to ignite powers in him were something that Eva and Lennox had helped stabilize to avoid mutation, he owed them his life like Renee owed them hers. “Well the nymphomania is no different from normal…” The woman pointed out “Come on, whilst I don’t care, you still need to get some rest.”

“And deprive the world of my awesomeness? Allayo would be so sad.” She sassed, feeling incredibly self-conscious when Renee came closer. She was almost positive that the cyborg was scanning her. “Hey, that's private information, lady.” She said tiredly, her humor fading as she weakened further. Ugh, an actual bed sounded good now, not that she would admit it. She bent down closer to Allayo, ignoring the pain as she sought comfort from her puppy creation. “Hush. It was bad, okay? So, hush.” Renee saying she didn't care brought back the big elephant in the room: the fight they had had before everything went to hell. “I’m fine here,” She said quietly, in a tone rather uncharacteristic of her. “I can just chill. I’m sure you're busy with your annoying baby mini-me.”

“Who knew that it could be a hobby” The blonde chuckled and then took a small breath, ringing out her hair. “I still think you should let people call you Lenny more” she mused, then sitting next to the other “I’d actually be glad, it’d mean I could get some actual time off in bed other than training.”

“Right? Livingstons have all kinds of weird hobbies. You’d think Eva’s was science-y, brain-y shit, but it’s actually nagging.” She kept joking with Angel. Lennox clicked her tongue in hesitation, “Dunno, kid. I only like it when people close to me call me that. I will lose so much street cred if I just go around being called Lenny.” She gently bumped the other girl’s shoulder, “Lil’dude, I’ve had pneumonia and I kid you not, there were boogers coming out of my tear ducts. I think you’d rather train.”

“No offense taken, I honestly don’t understand it to be honest, but to each their own I guess.”She replied,ruffling her hair just a little bit. “Dang, I must admit that does sound like it does suck to be put on a diet.”

“It’s the price I have to pay for apparently being turned into somebody who did not care much about kidney health. But I guess the Upside-Downpocalypse could have been worse. How did it treat you?” She asked the blonde, trying to just collect evidence on whatever had happened to all of them.

Crystal looked over at Lennox, watching as the pink haired woman drank the juice. “Yeah,I have a friend back home, who loved drinking it I honestly couldn’t understand why.” She replied,sitting up in her chair.  “Honestly, I couldn’t tell you. I would love some pizza now though, but I think I will put that on hold for a bit. I’m sure you don’t have to drink that crap.” 

“I think your friend probably has some kind of brain damage. No offense.” She said with another grimace, trying to get the awful aftertaste out of her mouth. “I mean, if I could count have many times I’ve had pizza delivered to the lab, it would be impossible.” She shrugged again, “My doctor’s got me on a diet. Supervised by Dr. Livingston herself so I’m sure they would block the pizza before it got to us. Sorry about that.”

“To be honest, I can’t really help it. I guess I’m more worried about the Fawna freakout when she sees how trashed this new suit is, dry clean only and all that” The girl mused, oddly upbeat as she took the towels “Cousin Lennox, that has a good ring to it” she said, muffled as she ruffled her hair with the towel to try her best to dry it. “I’m just a bit shocked from the cold….” she admitted “As for the other things you asked, I have no idea at all.”

“Oh, she will freak out for sure. That's a given. But freaking out is her hobby so there's really not much to do about that.” She sat back as she watched the young blonde take care of herself, “Of course it does. I have the coolest name ever, it goes with everything.” She added with a cheeky scrunch of her nose. “I mean, as long as you don't get pneumonia, it’s all good, lil Super. That shit is nasty.”

“I’d just get Heidi to banish your ghost ass, shes like a Ghostbuster” she shrugged and then narrowed her eyes slightly “Yeah and are you actually following that, world genius?” She tisked, then grumbling at Allayo when the dog trotted over and rested his chin on the girls lap, his tail wagging at her “Traitor…” she mumbled, before sighing, shifting the weight on her feet, Renee on edge in case of Eva suddenly walking in, her hadn’t seen her ex, maker, mom figure all rolled into one in months and the thought made her antsy. “I was a psycho hit woman….Quite fun in a sadistic sense, what about you?”

“I’m the one unbanishable, annoying ghost, I can feel it. You can just lock me in a jar, Stefan.” She groaned and rubbed at her sweaty forehead, “I mean, I am not in bed per se, but this is pretty close. And it’s a slow day, so I’m not exactly working. I feel like I'm being good?” She said, knowing full well that it was bullshit. She cooed when the dog came closer and immediately started petting and loving down on another one of their creations, ironically, the one that bit less. “You’re such a good boy. You know you love me and wouldn't want me to be far away in my bed.” Lennox cleared her throat, “That sounds badass... I was some sort of tech tycoon mercenary. With a nicotine obsession and a... nymphomania like the world has never seen.” She groaned, half hiding her face in her hand.

Renee stayed motionless, her eyes narrowed when Lennox spoke back to her. “Then the answer will be no, you never stop complaining. It’s everything that’s worst for you and Eva, it’s how it’s always been” she said simply shaking her head. The cyborg wanted to go on but all she could hear was the weak and hoarse tone from the other and her human guilt came back to her. “WHo took your smile?”

Lennox made a ‘finger gun’ motion at Renee in affirmation, “You got it, chief. Hell will freeze over the minute Lennox Silverstein stops complaining.” She tried pushing her restless sass and humor to mask her vulnerability, hoping it didn't sound as pathetic as she felt it did. She answered with a shrug and a sheepish chuckle, “An infection in my kidneys, apparently.”

For being the Hero’s place of residence, the tower wasn’t very secure. It didn’t take Jaclyn long to find a way inside the tower after she chose to surprise a certain friend of hers. She walked the hallways, careful to avoid any if the heroes walking around as she snuck around corners and hid behind different furniture, looking for a pink haired girl she’d grown fond of. She wore a grey sweater and black skinny jeans, something easy to move in but nothing that would out her as her other persona. Her eye finally caught a blob of pink and she approached, smirking when she saw it was Lennox.

“Hey, darling.” She spoke, leaning into the girls ear and speaking in barely a whisper.

@lennoxhere

Should she even be at work right now? Probably not but she’s Lennox and like the Livingston's and the rest of the Hero squad, they are kind of always working. Even when they don't have to, to avoid dealing with actual stuff. Like feelings and consequences to their actions. So here she is, slumped at her stupid desk, with her stupid green juice, her stupid cramping body and her stupid fever. Waiting for an assignment or just somebody top listen while she whines and is very unhelpful.

She did not hear Jaclyn creep up on her, at all. So when she did, Lennox shot up on her chair, and almost falling over. Grunting in pain and regaining her balance, she turned around. “Jesus fucking Christ, what the- Jac? What are you doing here? Who let you in?” Her voice softened considerably as she saw who it was. Somebody who had become a steady and comforting presence in her life lately. Way better than an annoying trainee hero trying to surpass her firewalls.
