Oa, Friday

[electrocynic]

This was it.

Sarah's apartment at MCA and office at the school had been emptied out. Most of her stuff was now in London under Jenny's care, waiting on how things shook out. Sarah herself had spent most of this past week in London as well, for the most part making sure her arse print was still worn into the seat in their favourite booth at The Fortress. It'd been a good time, despite Jenny's repeated fucking blubbering at how romantic this whole thing was. Alex had mostly looked confused about the whole thing, while Don had just stated he wished the sex was worth the move.

And Devlin, ever-present with his group of brown-nosers by the bar, had made some crack about her tits and space and whatever.

She'd said her goodbyes.

And then she'd set up on her journey. Which had been the bloody worst, so far. Of course there couldn't be a direct portal from London to Oa. Of course not. She'd been bounced around the multiverse, from one waiting area to the next, so many times that she'd already lost count and was ready to yell at just about anyone who gave her even the slightest bit of extra trouble. She'd worn her costume for this journey, hoping that'd make people treat her better, but nah. Same shit as she would've gotten in her civvies. Except maybe with a touch more leering, ugh.

She'd never been as glad to figure out this portal was the final one. It spat her out, and she was there. On Oa.

"Fucking finally."

God, she hoped that fucking ginger pain in her arse was actually here.

And also not dating some early-twenties waif with legs for days.

[ooc: This is it, Sarah's final hurrah! NFB and for the Guy + relevant NPCs with the kind permission of the admins. Thank you all for making these five and a half years with Sarah such a lovely time!]

For some odd reason, no doubt.

"Let's get your luggage put away and I can properly introduce you to the assholes I work with here."

[electrocynic]

A very strange reason.

"Sure," she sniffed, pulling back and trying to be sneaky about wiping one eye with the back of her hand. "Though I already met a couple."

[onepunchguy]

"Apologies for that." Mostly. "We got a Lantern who is some kinda alien squirrel."

Oh, space.

[electrocynic]

"Of course you do." Good thing six years in Fandom had prepared her for that kind of thing. Somewhat.

She picked up her bag. "It's just like home."

[onepunchguy]

"You're here, so yeah. Home." Look, he was really happy you were here, Sarah. Deal with it.

[electrocynic]

Sarah sighed, (mock) exasperated. "You're so bloody sappy."

And she loved it.

"Shouldn't you be slapping my arse or talking about how much you missed my tits?"

[onepunchguy]

Well then. Guy was just forced to give her ass a squeeze. "I missed all of you, babe."

[electrocynic]

And since she'd almost literally asked for it, she couldn't even complain.

Not that she wanted to. "Yeah, you too." See, she could be almost sappy too. "You're still a twat."

A beat.

Maybe her tone softened a bit. "But you're mine."

[onepunchguy]

"Yeah I am," he agreed, taking his sweet time moving his hand up to rest at her waist.

[electrocynic]

Well, there wasn't any rush. If things shook out okay, he'd have the rest of his life to rest his hand at her waist.

What a scary thought. And here was nother one: "I never stopped loving you, either. Y'know."

[onepunchguy]

Which meant he just had to curl his arm around her for a little squeeze. "You're here now. We got time to make up for."

Probably with sex. And also the cuddling that she'd claim to hate after.

[electrocynic]

Let's be real, she'd claim that during, too. While just cuddling up closer.

Kind of like she did now, with a lean in and a quick peck on his cheek. "So, show me your dumb mates and then take me home," she murmured, her voice raspy but fond. "And cancel whatever bollocks you had planned for tonight, because we have years' worth of shagging to catch up on."

She had various ways of saying 'I love you'. That was one of them.
