Laudry Day
Since his laundry machine was currently unavailable after some lab mishap and he really needed some clothes Ben headed down to a nearby laundromat to take care of it. He had on some sunglasses to keep himself from being recognized too much while he took care of it. As much as he loved his fans they could sometimes be a pain in the ass to deal with.

He through his darks and his lights into separate washing machines and took a seat to wait till they were done.

Kal loved doing laundry. It was so...mundane. When one would live forever and was a whole different race, doing simple things like laundry made her feel more human. She could have done it at the apartment she shared with Jack, or even at the Avengers mansion, but she liked being around normal people as much as possible.

She dumped her whites in one washer and her colors in another.

Ben started doing some people watching as he waited for his laundry to waste some time. It was always interesting to see what people were up to.

"To be honest I find it to be pain in the ass," Ben says with a shrug, "But yeah normal does describe it pretty well.

"Normal's nice once in awhile," Kal explained. "Life can be pretty weird and hectic and laundry gives you a few moments to slow down."

"I think we all would, but laundry is a necessity because otherwise we'd either smell or have to go naked. There are some people you don't want to see naked."

"Very true," Ben says, "There really are some people you do not want to see that way. But I'm just surprised that they haven't invented an even easier way to take care of it."

"You have no idea what it's like having Sersi as a mother," Kal said. "She moved me in with my boyfriend without me knowing about it. I wouldn't put it past her to have the wedding already planned and names for the grandkids all picked out."

Kal shook her head. She loved her mother, but Sersi was a handful.

"Cool. Any particular ones you like over others?"
