Settling In
Living at the new headquarters was a lot better than his small apartment. It was cleaner for starters and a lot more quieter at night. Dex hadn't slept so well in his life. Though there were times he did miss the gun shots and the wail of sirens.

Staying here meant helping out though.

Currently Dex was moving old stuff from upstairs into the basement.

The elevator opened and Dex stepped in carrying a large box.

	"New here or just vistin'?" he asked as he shuffled some boxes to get a better grip on them. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Just visiting. I'm Layla Hall, Hawkgirl of the JSA. I'm a friend of Lizzy's. I thought I'd stop by and say hi." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Dex. Green Lantern." A pause. "Hi." That's when the elevator decided to stop working. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Hey there yourself," Layla said. She raised an eyebrow when the elevator stopped. "Right. Because that doesn't sound good at all or anything." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Great," he grumbled. "Just what I need." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You got your ring on you?" Layla asked. "We can use it to maybe pry open the door. Then we could fly up the shaft." Yes, she could also try and use her mace to break open the door, but she didn't want to cause any property damage. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	green_lantern 2012-10-04 12:04 am UTC (link)
	"In my room," Dex said. He figured that if he didn't have the ring he'd have to lift everything and get a workout. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Damn," Layla said. She held up her mace. "I could try smashing our way out...or we could give it a minute to see if it works." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Give it a moment," he said. "Otherwise someone will say somethin' 'bout busting up the place." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	macemeetface 2012-10-04 04:16 pm UTC (link)
	"Most likely," Layla said. "It's just an option to consider. I wouldn't want people to think I stopped by just to trash the place, anyway." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	green_lantern 2012-10-04 08:34 pm UTC (link)
	"Just say I did it," he said. They would all believe it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	macemeetface 2012-10-04 08:37 pm UTC (link)
	"I wouldn't want to get you into trouble," she said. "Or leave you with the bill." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	green_lantern 2012-10-04 09:02 pm UTC (link)
	"I won't get in trouble," he assured her. "They expect it from me and I can afford it." Dex had a good chuck of cash, literally, and not much to spend it on. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Smashing an elevator door and blaming it on a cute guy isn't a very good way to make an impression with said cute guy." Layla said, smirking a little. "Even if you said it's okay." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	green_lantern 2012-10-05 10:10 pm UTC (link)
	Dex shrugged. "They think I'm a barbarian anyway. This would just be living up to it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	macemeetface 2012-10-05 10:20 pm UTC (link)
	"And why would they think something like that? It seems a little rude of them." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	green_lantern 2012-10-08 08:24 pm UTC (link)
	"It's not a big deal," he said. He shrugged. "I really don't care what they think of me." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	macemeetface 2012-10-11 11:50 pm UTC (link)
	"Not caring what people think about you's never really a bad thing. It's when start to care too much that you become someone you're not." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Which is why I don't give a shit," Dex said with a grin. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	macemeetface 2012-10-12 09:27 pm UTC (link)
	"There's nothing wrong with not giving a shit." Layla said, grinning. "My Dad taught me that." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Smart man," he said. "Raised a smart girl." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	macemeetface 2012-10-17 01:43 pm UTC (link)
	"He did," she said, grinning. "...I did wish he taught me how to fix an elevator, though. Would certainly come in handy right now." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	green_lantern 2012-10-17 04:19 pm UTC (link)
	Dex looked at the ceiling and saw a panel that would open. "Want me to lift you up so you can crawl out?" He pointed up to the panel. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	macemeetface 2012-10-24 10:08 pm UTC (link)
	"Yeah," Layla said. "I think I'll have to take the wings off, as I don't think they'll fit out with. Can you pass them to me when I get out?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	green_lantern 2012-10-24 10:16 pm UTC (link)
	"Sure," Dex said and cupped his hands and bent over a little so she could put a foot in them. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	macemeetface 2012-10-28 11:54 pm UTC (link)
	"Thanks," Layla said, taking off her wings. She placed them on the floor gently, before placing a foot in the offered cupped hands. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	green_lantern 2012-10-28 11:57 pm UTC (link)
	Dex carefully lifted her up and tried to hold her steady as possible. "Let me know if I need to lift you up higher." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	macemeetface 2012-11-01 11:04 pm UTC (link)
	"I think I'm good," Layla said, hoisting herself up into the elevator shat. "Okay," she said. "Pass me up my wings, then I'll pull you up." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	green_lantern 2012-11-02 08:01 pm UTC (link)
	"Here you go," he said as he passed up the wings. (Reply to this)(Parent)
