[This is weird. This feels weird and she is not comfortable. But there's a storm coming, and any issues she has with being open and friendly can wait until Liz is done with all of this.]

So at this point, I'd say just about everybody knows about the storm that's coming up. [HRGH THIS FEELS WEIRD.]

It hasn't really started up yet, but if anybody is stu-- [Just get on with it instead of insulting anyone you may be trying to help.] If anybody finds themselves out in the Earth Sector while the storm is going on, they're welcome to come to EA-1A until everything dies down.

It can't fit too many people, but there's food and water, and if the power goes out, I can still work things out as far as heating goes.

Although it'd be smarter to just stay home while this is all going on. [Because seriously, if you're going out in the middle of a hurricane for reasons that don't involve getting people to safety, she's pretty sure you're an idiot.]

Born and raised, though I've spent a large part of my recent years on the continent and in the United States.

[She goes back and forth between watching Liz, wondering is she should offer a hand, and watching Hellboy in keeping up her end of the small talk.]

Have you been? [To London, and the question goes to both of them, really.]

Sure. I did a couple jobs for the Museum back in the 80's. Then there was that thing with the ghoul back in '92.

[He shakes his head. He'd rather not get into that.]

It's a pretty nice city if it weren't for all the goblins.

[He's also leaving out the fact that he used to date an archeologist from the Museum and lived there for a time, but that's not something he usually talks about.]

I've been there a few times, though I haven't had much opportunity to go recently. Mostly I've been stuck doing work in the States. [What with the Frogs and all.]

I'd like to go back sometime, though. [She sets the teapot and everything else down on the table.] But there's not much chance of that happening while we're all here.

A bit after my time, I'm afraid, but I have been to the Museum on several occasions. Though my London comes without the goblins. [She's assuming literal, her mind a little more open to that sort of thing after finding herself on the back of a giant turtle.]

[Peggy makes her way for the table and tea, muttering a quick 'thank you' for the drink, before sighing in agreement with Liz]

Unfortunate, but true.

[Hellboy also takes a seat, which groans in protest under his bulk, but he doesn't seem to notice.

At the mention of their current predicament he falls silent, taking a drink from his glass. It's a sad thought, and all the more reason to figure out a way of getting everyone out of there. Keeliai may not be too bad of a place, but the thought of anyone being snatched from their lives against their will, especially by a would-be witch, doesn't sit well with him at all.]

[Yeeeeah, Liz suspects where Hellboy's mind might be going. In retrospect, it probably wasn't the best thing to bring up. Probably wiser to change the subject.]

Anyway, Peggy, when are you from? Since this place is fond of bringing people from different times, and all.

[She takes a sip of her tea and nods at Liz.]

I've noticed that myself. For me, it was 1945.

[Peggy's had time to adjust to the whole people from the future thing.]

[That effectively snatches back his attention.] Right at the end of the war. That's a pretty rough time to be in Europe.

[World War II. Before her time, but around the time Hellboy was brought into the world. Hm.]

Must be tough. Were you fighting?

[Oh that doesn't go unnoticed.]

It had ended, technically, just as I arrived here. Rough is one word for it.

But yes, I was, though not necessarily on the front lines.

Edited 2012-10-07 01:40 (UTC)

[Ended. Right. Far as Hellboy's concerned that war never ended. Not so long as there's Nazis still out there trying to end the world]

Front lines or not, anyone who's fought Nazis is a friend of mine.

[He tips his glass to her before taking another drink. He holds a very special kind of hatred for Nazis.]

[Liz grins.]

I'll second that. [She may not have as much history with Nazis, but they're bad news. Always have been. She takes another sip of tea before speaking again.]

I'm from 2006 - it's been a while since that stuff happened, but sometimes things from that era find a way of popping up again.

[Technically, HYDRA was formerly Nazi, but she doesn't bother making the slight correction; they were in essence extreme Nazis anyway. She only grins back.]

You sound like you have experience in the matter yourself.

[And then to Liz's addendum:] How so, if you don't mind my asking?

[Because she fought in the war to stop all that.]
