Marlow Appreciation Time
Solver was pappoosed to her back, and she carried two thermoses of cocoa as she knocked with her foot on Marlow's door.

"It would be a giant mess. The pitching is pretty different. Japanese players are showing they can keep up at the plate, at least their stars, but the differences in power and finesse pitching would take a lot of adjustment. That, and the rules quibbles. Plus, of course, the fight over whether to recognize Mr. Oh."

"Probably pretty disastrous, yeah," she agrees. Once they arrive at the restaurant, she'll take his arm. "Probably the last one's enough to guarantee how absolutely it'll never happen. The Americans wouldn't, and the Japanese wouldn't be having with that. So how is Mason?"

"Yeah, I think that alone pretty much kills it, even if nothing else did. Mr. Oh would invalidate the most cherished record in baseball. Never mind than an American would too, if they included Josh Gibson. But anyway, Mason is... having some trouble, but heading the right direction, I think."

"I'm going to admit it; i've never heard of Josh Gibson, but I can already guess which league he played in. And that's... good?"

"Negro league. 75 home runs in a season, close as anyone could ascertain, died of a brain tumor a little bit before integration. As for Mason... he'd like some help in things involving his girlfriend. I was hoping you might be willing to talk to him, when you're in a better place. He may also be going to school down here for a bit."

"Definitely impressive. Shame it's not more well-known even now. And good for him doing the school thing. I'd be happy to talk to him...later."

"Later, much later. For now, we'll leave Mason out of it til you're in a better place. Right now, we can keep things light, or talk about whatever you want, really."

"Thanks, Jordan." They take their seats. "I had some time with Marlow earlier. Nice girl. Socially awkward as an internet penguin, but really sweet."

He chuckles at the comparison. "You've mentioned her once or twice, but not as much as most."

"Yeah. Sorcerors can be hit and miss about that. Shaman... was sometimes one of the most empathic and caring people around. Other times, head in the clouds, or on other dimensional... stuff. Wouldn't be surprised if she was the same."

"Yeah. She's...definitely my favorite witch in the house at the moment. I... kind of... broke my hand on Aslief's face. I was way out of line. The fact that she was, too, doesn't help all that much."

"Yeah, but it's not the point. Slapping stupid bitches in the face hasn't normally been my style. Hard to say what is, lately." A thin smile. "Jordan, tell me I'm pretty."

The smile's a little more... Vernique this time.

She catches sight of the waitress coming. "Order me a large bowl of tortilla soup?" She asks, grinning. "I feel like an 'and the lady will have' kind of night."

"I do my best." he responds, pausing to place their order. He has to skip the margarita for himself - not much longer, but at least remembers he's in the states now. Then gets her the large tortilla soup, and himself the three enchilada dish with extra rice and beans. He even goes fully into the 'and the lady will have' bit with suitable formality.

Vernique nearly glows as she just enjoys the old-fashionedness of it human old-fashionedness, thank goodness, gradually relaxing more.

"Which is good, though usually, the Defenders are kind of hit and miss on the Earth matters. Or at least being notified on them. Down here, doesn't a lot get sent to the Avengers, unless its big gun kind of things?"
