Artifact 01: Colorblocks

[ Sitting at a small, wooden table with a tall umbrella, Angela seems to be enthralled with something. The something sits on the table in front of her.

It looks like a collection of painted wood blocks, the kind of thing a baby would play with. They are currently arranged to look like a small cluster of houses, complete with angled roofs and chimneys. Suddenly, she lifts a hand, and knocks all the blocks down.

This would be disappointing for anyone admiring the block sculpture, but only briefly, as the blocks immediately start to build new houses, all on their own. ]

[ She experimentally stacks a few of the blocks. They immediately shuffle to form some kind of squat looking house. ] Somehow I don't think a game would work with something like this.

You're no fun.

[ She pushes the little block city towards him. ] Well, if you'd like to try, be my guest. They're a little stubborn about rebuilding, though.

Nah, I prefer to play life-size Jenga.

Pervert.

What? I was talking about playing Jenga with really big blocks.

What were you thinking of?

[ Ignoring that question~ ] Why really big blocks?

Well, more specifically the really big blocks that they make buildings out of.

And instead of taking them out and putting them on top, just blowing them up.

Jenga!

That sounds more like mass destruction.

Potato, potahto.

Whalamato.

Hey, whattaya know, I think I'm startin' to like you.

Good to know... whatever your name is. Whalamato Man.

Deadpool.

Sounds a little on the grim side.

Just a bit.

Should I ask why, or will the imagery give me nightmares?

Nightmares.

I'll opt to stay blissfully ignorant, then.

So what do you do other than keep people who make tight costumes in business? And play life-size Jenga?

I'm a merc.

Murk?

Mercenary.

Oh! So when you're not blowing up buildings for fun, you're being paid to blow up buildings.

Precisely.
