Song Meme: Poker Face
The Exiles actually managed to get some downtime, meaning they had to sit still for a week, before they had their next mission. Sometimes they had to sit and wait until it was time to do whatever it was they were sent to.

Liv spent the time finding poker games and winning substantial amounts of money. They had to eat and pay for lodgings somehow. May as well put what her mother taught her to good use. It was morning and she was sitting at the small table in the room she shared with Sarah and Meggan counting last night's winnings.

	"Sorry to hear that," Liv said. "It must have been interesting to meet other Avenger kids. There were a few on my world, but I didn't spend too much time there before coming with the Exiles." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Sarah nods. "Its for the best, honestly. It was interesting meeting people though. While some bad stuff was happening there, obviously, for us to have been there, overall, it was a lot more pleasant than most of our landings." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"The vast majority, yes. Usually, its some small thing went wrong with time, and it turned into... well, Storm: Queen of the Vampires, or 7 supervillains have divided the world between themselves in little empires, or Mysterio takes over as Sorceror Supreme, or the end of the world is nigh in the form of Galactus or Dormammu. The one consistent detail has been that the Hulk hates me in all of them."

	Sarah rolls her eyes. "It is." she agreed. "Need anything before crashing for the night?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"A drink," Liv said, joking. Though a shot of vodka would be nice about now. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"No problem. People have had all sorts of things they did to unwind on this team, when we got the chance. You never know when we're going to end up on dead worlds, or in ruins, or hunted by sentinels. Enjoy the luxuries when you can. If that involves a minibar, I'm not going to complain or worry about what anyone does in their downtime." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	winter_daughter 2014-04-08 08:55 pm UTC (link)
	"So what do you do to unwind?" Liv asked, a little curious. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Training, mostly. I hit the gym or training rooms whenever there's one to use, to work some stress off. I'm really not a beach vacation or going out drinking kind of girl." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Hard not to, probably. He drives himself so hard... and its kind of infectious. I guess its just a little surprising, since, well, the kids of met who share versions of your mother are kind of all over the spectrum. Depends on who the father is, if she settled down and retired, or stayed a spy, or how many kids she had. Definitely all individuals. Which I guess makes sense as something she'd bring in... kids who learn to do what they want and live their lives the way they want, instead of how anyone else tells them."
