Out there — we endure.

[Ashley Merricroft. @Geneatium]

@ofdecibels -- the goddess, unarmed, with that accent I'm /sure/ you've heard from just spending enough time with him — and I am not kidding you here — serenaded her with ‘The Streets of Laredo’. And it fucking worked!

[Ashley Merricroft. @Geneatium]

Ah. (Was all the answer she offered at the moment. Not only was it not her place to press into somebody else's relationship, she was also hoping that maybe this time, her friend /did/ finally learn to want something for himself.)

And, yes, I would also love to get to --

[Dinah Lance @ofdecibels]

Oh, unfortunately he’s experienced a worse phase, but we’re past it now.

I do, and I’m not /clueless/. I’m just— smart enough to realize he’s ‘lawyering’ his way around some answers, so if I’m possibly missing something, it would be good to know. (A pause. She sighs, —

[Ashley Merricroft. @Geneatium]

@ofdecibels -- We were fighting a goddess that came to existence from the dying thoughts of non-Christian, non-religious cowboys. We tried spells, guns, whatever construct Green Lantern rings could make, spirit armor — nothjng worked. Then Donnie, and this is why I love him, came up to --

[Ashley Merricroft. @Geneatium]

/That/ part, I can relate. Time magazine this, Bloomberg that. Sometimes all I need is somewhere I could just be, you know?

There's this one you did with— what's his name? I think it's Hagen. Michael Hagen?

[𝙹𝚄𝙻𝙸𝙴 𝙼𝙰𝙳𝙸𝚂𝙾𝙽. @starletonfilm]

No, no, it’s all right. Actually, it’s been a while since I’ve had a real conversation with someone. Usually it’s phones or cameras being shoved in my face.

Nice to meet you, Ashley. Thank you. Got a favorite?

[Ashley Merricroft. @Geneatium]

Well, then — anytime she feels like experiencing Malta? /She/ is at /her/ disposal.

Consider her sold on the idea of visiting yet another sentient house. When can they leave?

[˗ˏˋ 𝐙𝐄𝐄. @MAGIKlLLS]

Huh, Malta is one of the few places she hasn’t been to. Great choice, really.

She’s never heard any complaints about her being too opinionated, but that’s just another thing to add to the list of things to find out.

[Ashley Merricroft. @Geneatium]

Not even surprised to learn that Donnie's sentient house gimmick isn't even original.

[Ashley Merricroft. @Geneatium]

-- Zatanna's is less opinionated about things than the one she's gotten used to hanging out in the last couple of years.

[Ashley Merricroft. @Geneatium]

Careful, Miss Magic — keep treating her like that, and next thing she knows, they'd be on a date somewhere in Malta.

Ah, of course. There's always a sentient home. She can't escape 4 Augsburg Avenue even when she's not physically in West Virginia, it seems. Hopefully, --

[˗ˏˋ 𝐙𝐄𝐄. @MAGIKlLLS]

She’s nothing if not a hostess in some regard, either on stage or off.

Metropolis is beautiful, but the uncertainty of whether it’s a magic mansion or not is worth the trip alone. Be prepared to be amazed at how it has a mind of its own.

[Ashley Merricroft. @Geneatium]

My, my — is she flattered.

Not only is Zatanna Zatara available to her, but she is also invited to what she could only assume is a magic mansion? It goes without saying, but she'll take the offer. Metropolis is lovely, but she does need a change of scenery.

[˗ˏˋ 𝐙𝐄𝐄. @MAGIKlLLS]

Well, until her own magic-user friend is available, consider her at the other’s disposal.

If Ashley needs a change of scenery, Shadowcrest offers her an open-door policy.
