Jay snagged the LWs with a swipe of the power. When the display grid was revealed, he took a few minute to orient himself with the navigation software and controls. They were better than what he had in the Legion, and it had been enough years that he’d served in the marines, that what they used back then was outdated now.
“Good stuff,” he nudged Nox and gave him a stern, brow-quirking pose.
“How do I look?” He asked, serious as a stone except for the twinge at the corner of his mouth. Hollywood may be a little ragged, but he was still hot as fuck.
Maybe this was going to be more fun than he thought.
Ascendancy and Marcus DuBois’ arrival plucked the comedy from the air, though. He saluted the great man that was Ascendancy, having not seen him this close since his return from the US.
Naturally, there’d been some time waiting around – on the flight, in the car, while placaso tortured him – and one’s thoughts strayed from subject to subject. Eventually, he thought about Ascendancy. How did he learn this power on his own? How did he master it without a teacher? At least Jay had Jared’s instructions and Nox’s guidance. Seeing him again stirred at the questions Jay was unlikely to ever ask.
Maybe he was a god. Mortal or not, it didn’t matter to Jay. He was ready to follow him into the darkness.
Should be fun. If they didn't all die today. Hell, if they made it out without amputation, Jay would call it a success. Sure as shit he wasn't going to be hacking off anything today.

Only darkness shows you the light.
