[@Gilgex] [/center][hr][hr]Eddie nodded. It seemed that Mercury, despite his claims of being some sort of elite being, able to hunt everyone and anything down, hadn't the faintest idea how was chasing after him. Had Jackson been there, he likely would have called it an amateur move. She didn't judge him on it, however--he too easily could have judged her for the numerous mistakes she already made.

[color=99ccff]"Right, normal girl places..."[/color] she paused, glancing at his yellow eyes. He looked almost like a demon, and she chuckled. Somehow, he was more intimidating when he was trying to puff out his tiny bird chest. And even then, he was about as frightening as a cupcake. 

[color=99ccff]"Well, I'll just go to where I was going anyways,"[/color] Eddie shrugged. Pulling out her phone, she screamed at Siri a bit, before asking her to take Eddie to the lab. The phone buzzed happily, and gave Eddie directions. Thankfully, they were in English.

She still didn't know a single bit of the language here. For all she knew, everyone was talking about rainbows and Donald Trump all day, rather than normal conversations. [color=99ccff]"I work at a lab, by the way."[/color]

Eventually, they reached the nicer part of town--and by nicer, Eddie thought of it as being more sterile. There was still some partying in the streets, but it was lesser. Tall white buildings with glass doors and a security guard were the norm. Eddie walked in, past the guard, flashing her ID badge. They didn't have the money -- or the need, even -- for a proper scanner. Eventually making her way towards her own work area, Eddie threw her bag to the ground.

[color=99ccff]"Welcome to my lab. I do... Well, I research light and its interactions,"[/color] she explained. [color=99ccff]"Though really, I research waves in general... How they disturb matter... The complications they bring...Repercussions for the fabric of reality itself...It's probably boring you, sorry."[/color]
