The most recent wave of giggles has faded. (Post Bachelor Party - Pre CfJ)

"Oh man. That was awful of us." Bette doesn't look like she thought it was awful. She looks like she thought it was a laugh riot. "We're bad, bad people." Of course that nearly sets off another wave of the giggles as she looks over to her compatriot.

Pausing, she looks around and scruchnes up her face some. "Where the hell are we anyway?" They've wandered some from Warriors, not having had anywhere specific in mind to get to after leaving. "Ah who cares. We can worry about it later." A pause, "That was awesome. In a horrible way. I'm starving. Are you hungry? We should get some hashbrowns."

"I'm not /really/ drunk. Hell, at this point, I'm not even really tipsy. Hashbrowns just sounded really good..."

"Fried food. OK, Wally, Junior." Jesse tucks her hand through Bette's arm and adds, "We're a long way from the bar in San Francisco. Neither of us is really well dressed, either. I feel like my boobs are hanging out."

"If I ate as much as Wally, I'd be huge. Of course, he just goes fast, so there is an excuse and all." At the comment Bette, of course, as to look.

"They're not." Ahem.

"So." Beat. "Coffee at least. There has to be a place around here where we can sit and talk."

Jesse shivers a moment, because it IS November and she IS wearing not very much. "Why don't we head back to your place, get out of these costumes, find something more comfortable to wear?"

Then Jesse stops, blushing. "I didn't mean that like it sounded."

"My place? That's a lon-" Oh. Yeah. Fast. And strong.

Blink.

"Of course you didn't. S'okay." Bette's smile is a lot more mellow this time.

Still blushing, Jesse puts her arms around Bette and says, "Hold on," before murmuring her formula. She doesn't need superstrengh, once they're airborn, to keep hold of the other heroine. "Might want to keep your eyes closed, too."

Does Bette know that Jesse's superspeed can be applied to flight? She's about to find out.

"Whoa God!"

Her arms wrap around jesse as she clings to her in that first rush of fear. At first she does close her eyes but Bette is nothing if not a thrill junkie. She'd kick herself later if she didn't pay attention. At least for some of the trip.

"Wow."

Jesse, who's been using superspeed for a long time, glances at Bette before laughing. "I guess it IS a wow sort of thing if you're not used to it," she remarks as they speed along at a few thousand feet, twisting a bit only now and again to avoid things like jets, birds and buildings. "We're almost to Philly. It's a lot closer, and I realized you probably wouldn't like to travel this way for too long. I'm sure I've got some things that you can borrow. Or Wally does."

"M'kay."

Bette is still clinging, whether she realizes it or not. She's never been to Jesse's place. At least not that she can remember right now. "You're both taller than me." Of course, she's sort of gotten used to people being taller than her. She was a gymnast - they're not known for being giants.
