[Rita's sitting at a table in the library, her nose deep in a book. She's been here for hours without paying any attention to anyone else in the library, which at this late hour, seems to be just Satan.
The moment the clock strikes 11, the few open doors in the library close. Rita glances up.]
What, is it closing time already?
[Nobody's coming around to turn off the lights or tell them to leave, so... it's probably fine?]
Maybe somebody blew up another part of the city. Again.
[that could be cause for a lockdown. this place probably has some supervillain-emergency procedure for situations like that. if not, they really should.]
[She sounds annoyed at the disruption, as she peels herself out of her seat and heads over to the door. And pulls on it. Then pushes it. Then kicks it.]
[There's a whole pet store here, with so many different kinds of animals to look at... but Satan is hyperfocused on the kittens. They're just so cute... And with his powers, all the more reason to spend way too much time cooing at them.]
Ah, all of you are just so cute...! Would Goat get mad if I took all of you home?

It feels more like we're being put on lockdown, if they're not trying to kick us out.
[..............]
Which there would be worse places to be locked in, probably.

Perhaps with another explosion. You would think they would announce something like that so as to not alarm the citizens, though...
[Not that he actually knows anything about what humans usually do, much less humans in superhero-protected cities.]

They seriously locked us in!!
[She's just offended at that.]

[He doesn’t super want to break a window when he can just sit here and read…]
Have you gotten any messages from your team? They can’t have entirely cut us off, right?
[He could go pick up his phone from the table he left it on, but.]

She takes a look at her phone anyway, but he can probably tell from her unsurprised expression that she hasn't gotten any new messages.]

Date: 2023-10-04 01:16 am (UTC)Yes, I was curious about what the new crime scenes would be.
[That is, perhaps, a Bad Joke.]
Though now I'm hoping this place stays untouched. These cats are too cute...
