thunderstruck > >, simon and vivian

close to my heart,Vivian both loved, and hated, her breaks. They were great, because the Planet Watch was half-educational and half-petting zoo, and she loved being able to walk out and see how all the kids were running around with goats and holding rabbits and the like. Except, she was almost always overdressed (especially now with the Florida summer coming fast), or she plain walked around still in her lab coat, which was always fun. Sarcasm, of course. But there were some days when the ends justified the means, and today was one. Vivian had left the coat back in the lab before stepping out, and the sight she saw upon walking out the the petting zoo was… Well, kind of frightening.Abrupt, and unexpected, and a little hard to believe, more like it. Vivian was used to seeing kids and their parents petting goats and photographing sheep… She wasn’t used to seeing the god of Thunder there.If Viv didn’t know any better, she’d swear that was Hemsworth. Or just straight-up Thor.Either way, she wanted a picture.And even if this guy wasn’t a norse god, he sure as hell looked like one, and she would be lying through her teeth if she denied that she felt a little sort of breathless. So, she straightened out her shirt hem and dusted her pants, and what girl didn’t touch to their hair when approaching an attractive guy? Vivian was just like any other girl.Well, except for the art where her first words to the blonde were, “Hey, sorry to burst your bubble, Thor, but I don’t think you’ll find one large enough to ride.”THIS IS FOR CHARLIE AND IT IS 273 WORDS LONG.THANK YOU AVEY!

Simon's glad to have off days. Yeah, he loves the whole saving-slash-protecting lives gig, but it's nice to take a breather every now and then. Today's relaxation point of choice is typically a child's destination, but truth be told, Simon's really a giant child. Of course, no one would be able to tell by his "hulking" physique. He's just leaned down to pet a bunny when he hears her, and the comment about Thor is what solidifies that she's talking to him. Since the day that film came out, everyone's been confusing him for Chris Hemsworth. It's not exactly a bad thing, honestly he think's it's pretty funny. And flattering to boot, Hemsworth is a God among men. Not that Simon would ever admit that out loud.Chuckling some, Simon turns to face the voice, and he actually has to choke back a 'Holy shit you're pretty', but he manages to keep his cool. What's really funny about her calling him Thor, though, is that she looks remarkably like a blonde Natasha Romanoff. "Many thanks, Black Widow." he laughs"Would you mind pointing me to a place where I could?"It's not exactly the smoothest comeback ever, but for an on the fly quip, it'll have to do.

close to my heart,She can’t help but laugh when he throws an Avenger’s reference right back at her. She runs a hand through her hair, saying, ”You should have seen me about… Four months ago, Thunder. I actually did look like Widow, shock of red and all.” Speaking of red, Viv can tell there a hint of it in her cheeks. She’s talking to a beautiful, muscled blonde Thor-clone, who compared her to her hero. And she was talking about hair dye. how lame was she??Vivian turns, looking back toward the large building that housed exhibits and her own workspace, and then looks back to the blonde, faking a horrible Russian accent, ”Well, Odinson, I hear S.H.I.E.L.D. has some equestrian rides at their base in Fort Wilderness.” The accent falters into laughter, and she adds, ”Sorry, I’m a terrible actress, that was supposed to be Russian..”Its then that Vivian realizes how rude she’s being, just sauntering up to a stranger and striking up a comic-verse conversation because he resembled an actor. That was… Well, that was how a lot of people made friends, actually. Right?Or maybe Viv was just… Kind of crazy.No, Viv was just mostly crazy.Suddenly having Vivian take back over from Natasha-Imposter, the blonde stuck out a hand to shake and apologized, ”Sorry. Sorry, that’s really awful of me, to bombard you like this. I’m Vivian, actually. And I’m fairly sure you’re not actually Chris Hemsworth, are you?”THIS IS FOR CHARLIE AND IT IS 247 WORDS LONG.THANK YOU AVEY!

Simon really can't help the way he keeps laughing at her. It's not mocking laughter, not by any means, she's just being so damn adorable. And the fake Russian accent she attempts doesn't help his fight to breathe.Wiping the stray laughter tears that managed to escape his eyes, Simon extends his hand and shakes hers. "Simon. Simon Haider." He smiles brightly, flashing his pearly whites at her. So, yeah, maybe he's flirting a little. But there's no harm in that, right?"So, what's a gorgeous assassin like yourself doing all alone in a big park like this?"

close to my heart,The blonde’s laughter was absolutely contagious. It was nice to have some kind of reassurance that she was funny, or at least was funny today, and of course Vivian loved having an excuse for her terrible attempt at an accent. Oh, well, I could do better, but I was trying not to laugh, you know…?The excuse wouldn’t have much ground to stand on, either way, but she felt a little more at ease knowing there was a fallback.Wow, okay. Killer smile. Ignore the killer smile, Vivian, you are the master of your brain. Take control and ignore the smile. You do not have a thing for smiles, Vivian. Nope. Not a thing.Taking his hand for the shake, Vivian echoed, ”Simon, then? Suits you, I think.” Certainly better than Thor would have. And even though Simon looked a great deal like Chris Hemsworth, he just didn’t really look like a Chris. Which was sort of weird to think, but… It was something in the eyes. Vivian wasn’t sure what else the man’s name could have been, now that she knew it. Simon. Simon Haider. Had she heard that last name before?Oh, wait… Yes, actually. Vivian could remember distinctly the name “Haider” being mentioned at least week’s meeting. Something about keeping better tabs on combustible liquids stored and used in their labs. Something about an incident with a kid named Nick Haider. Maybe the two were related?Probably was better if Vivian didn’t ask.”Um, working, actually,” she replied. She’d raided a finger to point to her nametag, which she quickly realized was on her coat, not her shirt, and so the blonde quickly slid her hands into her short’s pockets instead. ”I’m one of the vet-tecs back here. Not as exciting as a master assassin, but… Still dealing with lives. Kind of. I don’t know, actually, do the two have anything in common? No, no… I don’t think so. Um. Yeah, sorry. I think my comic jokes just ran out.” She gave Simon a quick look-over, trying to guess what it was he did. He seemed pretty comfortable in the parks, so he was either a frequent guest, or he worked there. Seeing as the blonde was alone, Vivian was putting her money on the latter. Thank god the girls had watched Thor the other night in a Post-Avengers comic-high, because Vivian was able to pull out another shot with, ”But hey, what about you, eh? Defending the Earth from the evils of the Frost Giants?”THIS IS FOR CHARLIE AND IT IS 426 WORDS LONG.THANK YOU AVEY!
