Stark Industries [all day]

Ben was trying to catch up on the news from home through his laptop, but his research into Tahiri's new lawyer kept getting interrupted by annoying pop-up advertisements for sales on women's clothing.

"That was one weekend," he snarled at the computer, "and I wasn't me!"

The shop was open! Ignore the grumbling.

[OOC: *facepalms* We'll pretend this in townies, yes?]

If Ender knew what was going on, he'd be facepalming at Jane right now.

As it was, he was coming in with two coffees and a bag of sandwiches, as per usual, taking one glance at Ben's expression-- "So what peed in your drink today?"

Very occasionally, that whole 'thinking he was funny' thing Ben did rubbed off.
momslilassassin: ([neg] disintegrating you with my brain)

"I need to update my pop-up blocker," Ben grumbled, shooting his computer another glare.
endsthegame: (might be mocking you)

[personal profile] endsthegame 2011-09-16 06:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Ender shot the computer a disapproving look.

No, he wasn't going to go into why. Let Ben take it as solidarity. "What is it this time?"
momslilassassin: ([neg] please don't look at me okay)

[personal profile] momslilassassin 2011-09-16 06:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Ben's cheeks heated. "Clothing advertisements," he said. "But for...dresses and stuff."
endsthegame: (is only mildly suspicious)

[personal profile] endsthegame 2011-09-16 06:54 pm (UTC)(link)
"Ah, Google Ads has failed," Ender said, stepping around the counter to get a look as he set Ben's coffee down. "Maybe someone's been force-feeding your computer false adwords."
momslilassassin: ([neu] sharp dressed man)

[personal profile] momslilassassin 2011-09-16 07:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Ben gave him a look. "And I thought I hadn't done anything recently to upset you."
endsthegame: (is always watching)

[personal profile] endsthegame 2011-09-16 07:18 pm (UTC)(link)
"Please," Ender said, "If I were trying to get back at you for something, I'd be a bit more creative than this." He waved at Ben's screen.

Jaina had only left yesterday morning, technically, but it was really three days before she got a chance to give Ben a call, since she hadn't been able to see him over the weekend.

Timelines were a pain in the ass.

But hey, call!
momslilassassin: ([neg] i am a special snowflake. woe.)

[personal profile] momslilassassin 2011-09-16 08:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Ben wondered for a second if the screen was going to wave back.

"What would you do instead? Hypothetically."
momslilassassin: ([neu] I have a phone!)

[personal profile] momslilassassin 2011-09-16 08:05 pm (UTC)(link)
"It's Ben," Ben replied, picking up his comlink.
endsthegame: (*snerk*)

[personal profile] endsthegame 2011-09-16 08:07 pm (UTC)(link)
"Wouldn't you like to know," Ender said, reassuringly, and took a sip of his coffee.
solo_sword: (okay)

[personal profile] solo_sword 2011-09-16 08:11 pm (UTC)(link)
She was so used to hearing last names as a greeting she actually paused before saying, "Hey, kiddo. It's Jaina."
momslilassassin: ([pos] i think you're adorable)

[personal profile] momslilassassin 2011-09-16 08:48 pm (UTC)(link)
"I just want to know if I need to build myself a giant plastic bubble to live in," Ben said, grinning. "I think Topher might want one."
momslilassassin: ([pos] tongue)

[personal profile] momslilassassin 2011-09-16 08:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Ben had to check his comm to make sure he knew which one he was talking to before he asked if Jag had said yes to letting her borrow a fleet.

"Hey! I'm glad you're not married to Tony's dad."
solo_sword: (figures)

[personal profile] solo_sword 2011-09-16 08:53 pm (UTC)(link)
"You know, I just went several days happily repressing that," she told him.
momslilassassin: ([pos] i think you're adorable)

"At least my roommate's not your in-law?"

Not helping, Ben.
solo_sword: (or how about no?)

[personal profile] solo_sword 2011-09-16 10:24 pm (UTC)(link)
"At least you're not still shot?" she countered.
momslilassassin: (Default)

[personal profile] momslilassassin 2011-09-16 10:44 pm (UTC)(link)
"And no one's trying to blow up our non-existent diamond mine?" Ben added.
solo_sword: (hmmm)

[personal profile] solo_sword 2011-09-16 10:50 pm (UTC)(link)
"I can only assume I wasn't invited because Grandfather disowned me," she mused.
momslilassassin: ([pos] hello down there)

[personal profile] momslilassassin 2011-09-17 01:21 am (UTC)(link)
"Again?" Ben teased.
solo_sword: (amused)

[personal profile] solo_sword 2011-09-17 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
"Hush, you," Jaina smiled. "So I guess I don't have to ask if you've found your sense of humor about the weekend..."
momslilassassin: ([neu] feeling a little gangster)

[personal profile] momslilassassin 2011-09-17 01:44 am (UTC)(link)
"Well, I kind of have to. That other guy spent the whole time crying and blaming things on Taiwanese hookers," Ben replied.
solo_sword: (really?)

[personal profile] solo_sword 2011-09-17 01:48 am (UTC)(link)
"...Taiwanese hookers," she repeated. "Getting married is not more worthy of teasing than that."
momslilassassin: ([neg] looking down)

[personal profile] momslilassassin 2011-09-17 02:07 am (UTC)(link)
"It's apparently why Ender left me for Tony," Ben said ruefully. "Can't really blame him."
solo_sword: (eyebrow)

[personal profile] solo_sword 2011-09-17 02:10 am (UTC)(link)
"Well, yeah, once Taiwanese hookers get involved, you just can't look at that person the same way. I think your weekend was weirder than mine," she said.
