Pieces of the Sun

[OOC: Millitimed to sometime before Palmer's death]

Kim's come into the bar to get away from the stress of the outside. If someone had told her that she would come to the bar to escape stress a few years ago she would have thought they were obviously high.

For the first time in a while, she's not here to see anyone, just to relax. She's listening to a song on her iPod that she vaguely remembers from 2007.

Emo Punk isn't really helping her feel better so she switches to something a little more mellow.

As she's sitting in the booth she notices a familiar dark haired man trying to slouch his way down to normal size and about to walk right past her.

"It's not really permanent, just kinda semi-regular, but I think that's what Bar does for most people once she's brainwashed them into liking her."

Adam thinks for a moment about what Lyrae told him, about Kim being one of the Bar's few channelers. He just doesn't get that.

"How do you get here without a door?" he asks slowly.

He runs a hand through his hair, knowing Kim doesn't have any reason to bullshit him.

"Yeah, I know Lyrae. She mentioned..."

He's envisioning Kim out in the field, blasting terrorists with magical fire. It's not quite working.

"It's a nice idea in theory, Kim, but...how can you do it without people noticing?"

He raises an eyebrow at her.

"What would I say? Even if I wanted to? I mean, superpowers aside, what happens in Milliways stays in Milliways."

That...would be a good idea, yeah. He slides into the seat across the booth.

"This friend of mine--he was trying to convince me that it was possible for someone from my world to have superhuman powers, without my being aware of it, and I pretty much told him he was full of shit." He rubs the back of his neck.

"Guess I'll have to buy him a drink or something. I just won't tell him why."

He probably looks a bit relieved--it's easy to fuck up and let things slip here that one shouldn't.

"How did you end up being able to do it, though? I mean--did the powers just start showing up one day and you had to come here to find out what they were?"

"Well, that was probably easy; there are a bunch of Channelers around here, aren't there?"

Yes, Adam, of course it's that simple.

"Last time I met Nina here, she hit on me. If I ever see her again, I'm running anyway."

If he'd been drinking anything, he probably would have choked on it just there.

"Thanks, Kim." He glowers--hey, that looks familiar--but he's not as offended as all that.

"Yeah, no, I'll...keep that in mind. I can identify with having issues with evil lookalikes."

Not that Nina...isn't evil...

Maybe it's just something about Sarah Clarke.

Oh, pssh, anything that had a pulse would be happy to sleep with Jack Bauer. Even some inanimate objects want to jump him.

"Yeah. Calls himself Sylar. If you ever see a guy who looks exactly like me, but batshit crazy, run."
