VIDEO; OTA
( When the feed comes up, Darcy is still in the car on the way to the housing for Displaced Supers. It's loud in the background between one of her children shouting excitably about all the things he sees out his window and the other repeatedly asking "Mommy? Mommy? Mama? Hey Mommy?" as her attention goes to the camera instead of him. Darcy's an expert at ignoring her children when she needs to ignore them.

She neither looks panicked nor upset, just a little tired and a little annoyed. Darcy liked her life in Lawrence and she's hardly in the mood to have to create a whole new network of people to keep herself safe. In the meantime, the tattoo on her hip and the boys' amulets will just have to do. )


So, okay, what's all this about superpowers? That's new.

( In the background, the child trying to get her attention quiets briefly before asking "Who's got superpowers?!" Darcy's attention turns briefly to the child. )

Don't worry about it, baby.

( Her attention turns back to the camera. )

That's not real, right? Also, what's the longest anyone has been here, so far?


LOG; CLOSED TO ALLISON HARGREEVES
Once they arrive at the housing, Darcy helps the boys out of the car and takes their hands in hers to lead them through the front gate and up the steps to enter the building. Admittedly, these digs are a lot nicer than the apartments back in Lawrence. That said, she moved out of those goddamned apartments years ago and into her own house, one which might or might not have been best described as a McMansion. This is definitely a downgrade as far as that goes, but certainly an upgrade from what she started in, anyway.

As she moves through the lobby and then down the hall for the first-floor apartments, her boys are chattering animatedly and swiveling their heads to take in everything around them, and Darcy's just trying to keep herself calm. This is beyond obnoxious.

When she reaches apartment 102, Darcy lets go of the boys' hands. "Don't move, Clark," she says, already knowing that Conner won't. She fishes the key to the apartment out of her jeans pocket and is surprised to hear the sound of dogs barking behind the door as she turns the knob. Looking up at the apartment number, Darcy's brow creases. Definitely the apartment they told her...

Before she actually opens the door, Darcy just cracks it slightly and calls out. "Hello...? Anybody home?"

“The hierarchy is complicated. We’re all adopted, all the same age. But you could say I’m the third.” It’s not a lie, technically. And, while they’re all the same age, they did all fall in some sort of hierarchy anyway. “Four of them are here in Eglaf, so I’m sure you’ll get to meet them at some point.”

Klaus and Ben have a key, after all, and Klaus comes to hang out a lot even on days when they don’t have plans. Considering the children, though, she’s already planning on moving their trashy television days to Klaus’s place instead.

Allison finds herself grinning at Clark as he discovers the way that Apollo and Zeus introduce themselves, and she gets them a treat from a nearby jar for being so good.

“Yeah, it’s really not a problem,” she assures Darcy before moving towards the kitchen to get the coffee going. By the time Darcy joins her, there are already two cups served at the small table that’s in the kitchen, and a plate of cookies in between. She had just got grocery shopping, and Allison tends to have snacks and treats to indulge on during the week, although Darcy and the boys will get to enjoy some of the stuff she bakes or cooks whenever she can’t stay still, or can’t sleep.

At her comment, she breathes out a small chuckle before she moves to sit down. “I’ve dealt with a lot of crazy stuff in my life, some of it relatively recently, so...having a roommate move in with two adorable little boys isn’t really too shocking.” She tilts her head slightly, curious. “You mentioned you were an old hat to this. You’ve ‘traveled’ to another ... I don’t know what to call it. Place? Timeline?”

Allison laughs lightly. “Oh I believe you. You must have the patience of a saint with twins.”

God knows she herself didn’t have it, and she only had one child to contend with. She couldn’t even manage without rumoring her.

As Darcy speaks, Allison takes a sip of her coffee before she smiles in agreement at her comment about this not necessarily being considered ‘travel,’ since it most definitely wasn’t voluntary.

“Mine is a little complicated,” she admits with a small laugh. “I got here a few months ago, got sent back in time, and then came back again recently. So...this is the first place I’ve visited where this kind of thing happens, but I’ve ‘arrived’ here twice. How about you, how many times have you been displaced?”
