- Mark Grayson has posed:
Upstate New York was filled with trees and hills. But then, we remember we're in New York City, the concrete jungle. It's not too far from Westchester County up north, near Salem Center and most noticeably, the Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters if you go up a way a little bit more.
Mark was leaning against a tree, reading a book: The Once and Future King. He always loved the story. Psyche, he has to read it for exams, but it makes one feel incredibly intellectual to just 'say' you're doing pleasure reading, even if it's for work.
But he's just trying to rest. No super suit, no villains trying to break the city....just Mark Grayson being Mark Grayson.
He wears a yellow sweatshirt with blue jeans and running shoes. His hair properly done up as he sits there a moment, looking up occasionally to look at doves flying across the air.
- Mary Jane Watson has posed:
She's leaving from her shift over at the Triskelion. It means changing clothes from work to casual. Heading towards the subway station to head back to the city. Which will take a few hours between jumping from one ot the next and then waiting at the stations, plus all the traffic. But it's how the workday goes when you have to spend time in the suburbs.
So Mary Jane is rather distracted as she would walk along, whistling over as she would be jogging. She seems rather relaxed, making her way through the brightly lit suburban streets. Westchester didn't have bad things happen often. Weird things? Yes. Bad things? Not so much.
So the redhead is just jogging along, even as Mary Jane would be humming contentedly.
- Mark Grayson has posed:
Mark's stomach growls.
"Well, guess that's my cue to get some grub."
Mark stands up, widening his arms in a big ole streeeeeetch. He snaps his book shut, and with a few steps, he starts to move. Though he has the speed, stamina, and strength that could be a match for a Kryptonian /someday/, he sure as hell doesn't have the super hearing or the general spatial awareness of one.
What does that mean?
It means he's right in the way of Mary Jane Watson as she's trying to do her thing.
Unless one of them moveso ut of the way, they're on a collision course!
- Mary Jane Watson has posed:
Mary Jane Watson is good at paying attentiont ow here she's going. Normally. But when -something- goes up from the Daily Bugle's instagram and she's too busy looking over at her phone to see the latest tirade of everyone's (least) favorite mustachioed menace.. She ends up going headfirst over into Mark. "Ack!"
Mary Jane would yelp over and bounce off him, moving to take a few stumbles backwards, flailing just a bit as her phoen would boucne through the air, landing over on the groudn with a -clatter-!
- Mark Grayson has posed:
Oh no.
In that brief moment when he feels the contact of Mary Jane running into a brick wall named Mark Grayson, Mark needs to make a decision here: play it super cool and buff, like the cool kids at his school, /or/ totally take the hit and fall over for the sake of the infamous concept of a secret ID.
Mark chooses the latter.
Mark goes 'agh!' perhaps a second too late and he stumbles to the side, managing to catch his footing before he turns to look at Mary. "Hey, watch-"
/oh/.
Okay, she seems nice. *gulp*. He walks over to MJ's phone where she had dropped it, and he offers it to her. "I'm so so sorry. Are you okay??"
- Mary Jane Watson has posed:
Mary Jane Watson backpedals, flailing over before she ends up flat over on her bottom and wincing softly. Her phone goes to bounce over on the ground as she would go to get up, "I'm fine! I'm going to say that I really messed up the landing on that. I don't think that I'm ever going to get another chance at Olympic glory with that stumble in front of the judges. I'll never be able to show my face at anywhere that has parallel bars ever again."
She would quip towards Mark, picking up her phone. Which would flicker back on, showing a frozen picture of JJJ mid-rant with his mustache looking like a tentacled symbiote erupting from his face.
- Mark Grayson has posed:
"Dammit. Don't worry tiger, you'll get 'em next time. Four years of hardcore training and you'll be the best around." Mark follows humor with humor, though he does seem genuinely upset that he knocked her over. He looks at the phone cover with a surprised look on his face.
"Fan of triple J and his surprisingly arachnophobic commentary?" Mark smirks at her with amusement shining in his eyes.
- Mary Jane Watson has posed:
Mary Jane Watson would get up and smirk, "Well, just another four years. Then by that point I'm too old for it. I mean, once you hit sixteen you're practically ancient in the world of competition." SHe would put up a playful shudder over on it.
"And I'm a bit of a fan. I'm waiting for the day that the demon that inhabits his face to go on a rampage."
- Mark Grayson has posed:
"One day, it's time will come. Theres a whole cult following for Jameson's mustache."
Mark quips at MJ with a smirk. "I wouldn't know. I mean, I feel like I barely got through high school and Olympians have more talent in their little finger than I do in my whole body. Oh well. Sometimes you get dealt a weird hand."
