[9/11/2015 12:58:43 PM] Recette: "Just remember this isn't usually the kind of thing I like to do." Nikki told Xue, blushing just slightly. She... honestly wanted to make clear that at no point was she the sort of girly girl who enjoyed these sorts of things. She was actively trying to cultivate an tomboy tough girl image on campus.
The dryad walked into the mall with the cyberninja, feeling slightly uncomfortable. She'd been asked if she wanted to go, and she reluctantly agreed "I just didn't have much else to do."
[9/11/2015 1:02:24 PM] Trespassingdream: (oh we could've started with the phone XD)
[9/11/2015 1:03:49 PM] Trespassingdream: That gets a bit of a smile from Xue. So Nikki does blush. Well she did it before. It was .. well.. anyway. "Hm? Oh I was just going to shop for some extra parts, maybe look into buying a vehicle. I've been taking a cab and stuff so far, could use a vehicle."
[9/11/2015 1:06:16 PM] Recette: Cars and parts? Well, Nikki had no idea about either thing, but it wouldn't hurt her image. She felt a bit relieved "Yeah, I saw there were a few dealerships around the mall. Not exactly many shops dedicated to cybernetics around here though. You planning on just repurposing some stuff from the electronics store?"
[9/11/2015 1:06:59 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue smiles a bit more. "Hm? Thought I was taking you clothes shopping?" She teases back.
[9/11/2015 1:09:32 PM] Recette: Nikki blushed a bit more "Yeah, I might have been thinking you might try to put me in a dress or something." she explained. That was something that, if all possible, she'd avoid doing. There was a reason she'd already bought a woman's pantsuit, just in case she had to go to something formal.
[9/11/2015 1:11:10 PM] Trespassingdream: "You know, there are worse things than wearing a dress right?" The ninja can't help the mirth. "Why don't you like it, if I can ask?"
[9/11/2015 1:14:02 PM] Recette: Nikki took a deep breath to calm down "Trying to establish a tomboy image, and dresses don't help that. Never liked them anyways." she explained.
[9/11/2015 1:15:23 PM] Trespassingdream: Bingo. Good opening. "Then maybe you should look into the class I'm going to join. The one for Uprights. Most 'tomboy's deal with engine repair and stuff or hunting."
[9/11/2015 1:21:45 PM] Recette: Nikki had always been... somewhat inept with tools. She couldn't admit that know; her pride was already slightly inflamed "Maybe I will." crap, she probably shot herself in the foot here "Maybe you should consider joining a few ROTC classes. Military stuff seems to be right up your alley."
[9/11/2015 1:22:38 PM] Trespassingdream: "Hmm... Well.. fighting yes. Tactics.. not so much." She says as they walk on. "Kind of ... hard to put a ninja as a soldier right? But.. if you think its a good idea, I could do it."
[9/11/2015 1:25:30 PM] Recette: Nikki nodded "Hey, you've got to plan your way in, right?" Nikki nodded "Maybe you aren't going to lead a squad, but still being able to outthink your enemy is still useful."
Nikki grinned "And what's an assassination but a REALLY effective one-on-flanking flanking."
[9/11/2015 1:28:15 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue gets a slight flush, "Well I guess so. Hm. So do you have something against dresses in general? Like if someone else wore one?"
[9/11/2015 1:30:49 PM] Recette: Nikki shook her head "No, I just don't like wearing them myself."
[9/11/2015 1:31:07 PM] Trespassingdream: "Personally.. I try to avoid it. Most of my parts are kind of chrome. So it is off putting. I'd have to .. kind of special make some parts to look better."
[9/11/2015 1:33:38 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue Fang hums a bit as she enters the electronics store.
[9/11/2015 1:34:06 PM] Recette: Nikki nodded, entering the electronic store with Xue.
[9/11/2015 1:35:00 PM] Trespassingdream: "So..." Xue let out a slow breath as she begins taking a count of things. "You.. seemed to know quite a bit about that.. fruit thing in class the other day. Dryad fruit?"
[9/11/2015 1:39:25 PM] Recette: "Yeah, dryad fruit. Community apparently does its best to incinerate dryad fruit trees. They look pretty normal, but the parasite apparently reworks your body to be prettier, and replaces all the parts of your nerve system except for the brain. We're immortal and heal fast, but the parasite eats our lifeforce, so we can't learn any psychic powers."
Nikki sighed "Trust me, the transformation frickin' hurts like Hell."
[9/11/2015 1:40:11 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue gives another nod and looks to Nikki, "What'd you look like before.. if you don't mind me asking?" She says. Its a bit soft, but she's trying to learn more about the other.
[9/11/2015 1:43:19 PM] Recette: Nikki answered "Pretty much the same, except more of a normal figure and looks. Grey eyes too. A bit more muscle tone too; dryad fruit infection saps physical strength from you. It's a good thing my fighting style was based off agility rather than simple physical strength in the first place in the first place." Nikki already had a few lies worked out, and that was one of them.
[9/11/2015 1:44:31 PM] Trespassingdream: "Oh okay."
[9/11/2015 1:45:08 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue blinks a few times and continues moving. It seemed pretty personal. Though it is a personal situation. Maybe she shouldn't have brought it up. "Well... I've asked you some stuff. Anything for me?"
[9/11/2015 1:46:46 PM] Recette: Nikki thought "So, is this just repairs, or is there anything you've got planned for that cybernetics stuff?"
[9/11/2015 1:47:12 PM] Trespassingdream: "Hm.. well... buying some stuff for replacements. Going to try and get some.. more flesh colored cybernetics."
[9/11/2015 1:47:31 PM] Trespassingdream: "Not ah.. for any particular reason or anything."
[9/11/2015 1:47:45 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue continues shopping a bit more.
[9/11/2015 1:48:14 PM] Trespassingdream: "They likely won't be as armored, but they could do for being more social."
[9/11/2015 1:54:32 PM | Edited 1:54:34 PM] Recette: Nikki nodded "Ah. Well, anything else down the line?"
[9/11/2015 1:55:08 PM] Trespassingdream: "Hmm... I think I've gotten all I can here. You want anything?"
[9/11/2015 1:58:05 PM] Recette: Nikki shrugged "Nothing in particular right now. At least nothing that I can afford right now."
[9/11/2015 1:59:45 PM] Trespassingdream: That gets a laugh, "Oh come on, what are you interested in?" She asks again.
[9/11/2015 1:59:51 PM] Mitchell Anderson: (brb)
[9/11/2015 2:00:20 PM] Mitchell Anderson: (Oh, an important thing to remember. you can invoke a freind's aspects, to give yourself a reroll if you're ever in combat against them...and then they get a fate point)
[9/11/2015 2:06:47 PM] Trespassingdream: (Oh the only thing she'd want to know is the boy part for Nikki XD)
[9/11/2015 2:07:02 PM] Trespassingdream: "I do have a bit of money you know. I don't act it, but I can probably get you anything you want."
[9/11/2015 2:09:35 PM] Recette: Nikki blushed "I-I couldn't ask that of you. That's still a nice chunk of money, you know. B-besides, even if I had the money, i-it wouldn't be worth the price tag." Not to mention Nikki's pride kept her from asking for that much.
[9/11/2015 2:10:13 PM] Trespassingdream: That get's Xue's attention. She giggles and looks at Nikki, "Listen.. I want to do something nice for you. What is it?" She asks again.
[9/11/2015 2:14:30 PM] Recette: Nikki's face is pretty red at this point "Xue, I can't ask this of you. B-besides, I-I'd probably owe you forever, or at least something super embaressing." she told her "T-there's a food court nearby. L-lunch there would be more reasonable."
[9/11/2015 2:18:56 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue bites her lip. "Right... " She says with a flush. "Sorry. Um.. let's just go get something to eat then." Stupid. Stupid stupid.. She pays for her stuff.. and manages a smile, trying to head out to the food court.
[9/11/2015 2:20:12 PM] Recette: Nikki was still blushing, though she cracked a sincere smile "You... um... don't need to apologize. I mean, it was a bit much, but it was still a nice offer, I mean."
[9/11/2015 2:20:56 PM] Trespassingdream: "No I mean.. I understand. Uh.. right." She still ... felt a bit foolish. Very much so. But maybe if she just got something to eat it'd work out. "So, what kinda food?"
[9/11/2015 2:22:56 PM | Edited 2:23:02 PM] Recette: Nikki nodded "Well, there's this Chinese stand that's uh... uuuuuuh." Nikki blushed again. Wait to go, Nikki.
[9/11/2015 2:23:05 PM] Trespassingdream: That gets a bit of a laugh.
[9/11/2015 2:23:16 PM] Trespassingdream: "Ah.. s-sure.."
[9/11/2015 2:23:24 PM] Trespassingdream: Oh.. oh brain don't go there. Um.. right just food.
[9/11/2015 2:28:05 PM] Trespassingdream: "Lead the way?"
[9/11/2015 2:30:16 PM] Recette: Nikki nodded "Right." and lead the way to the food court. There were several other places, but the line was long due to a new menu item there "The line's a bit longer than usual. Anywhere else look nice to you?"
[9/11/2015 2:31:22 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue takes a look around the area. "Hm.. food is food for the most part.. this is great." Don't speak too much Xue gosh. She sighs a bit but manages a smile. "Hm? Unless you wanna go some place else?"
[9/11/2015 2:34:45 PM] Recette: Nikki shrugged "Eh, I guess I've got time. I mean, if there's not somewhere you'd rather go." she told her, blushing just a little.
[9/11/2015 2:36:27 PM] Trespassingdream: "No I mean.. I'm good."
[9/11/2015 2:37:07 PM] Trespassingdream: She's got time? Great Xue.. so.. now you're just 'spending time'. Friend zoned. Maybe. Alright just focus. "So.. um.. what kind of food do you like, obviously Chinese?"
[9/11/2015 6:46:53 PM] Recette: Nikki shrugged "I'm not that picky." she smiled "Dad wouldn't let me be." the dryad explained.
[9/11/2015 6:47:47 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue gets a bit of a laugh. Then.. ah.. gets a little more quiet. Her smile is a bit more challenged now as she looks to the menu, thinking things over.
[9/11/2015 7:13:58 PM] Trespassingdream: When her turn comes Xue orders a some chow mein, but is still relatively quiet. She finally breaks her silence, "I.. haven't found a place that does good baozi since I got here.. gotta keep an eye out for that."
[9/11/2015 7:16:28 PM] Recette: "Hey Xue, what's eating you?" Nikki asked. Nikki smiled, and ordered Orange Chicken.
[9/11/2015 7:17:05 PM] Trespassingdream: "Dad's." She says with a bit of a shrug.
[9/11/2015 7:17:55 PM] Trespassingdream: "Sorry... saw another commercial for that movie the other day."
[9/11/2015 7:18:02 PM] Trespassingdream: "Just .. kinda kept things in my face."
[9/11/2015 7:19:00 PM] Recette: "Wait, what?" Nikki asked "Movie? Some movie strike a raw note?"
[9/11/2015 7:20:05 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue takes a slower breath. "Yeah.." She says. "... remember ah.. what I told you about.. ugh. Well.. the guy that took my father out... he's making a movie about it."
[9/11/2015 7:21:55 PM] Trespassingdream: "And apparently, I'm the love interest he 'rescues' in the movie."
[9/11/2015 7:26:02 PM] Recette: Nikki stood still for a moment, shocked, merely saying "What?"
At that point Nikki was pretty darn angry "Are you frickin' kidding me!? That- bastard!"
A bit unreasonable at this point she angrily shouted "Okay then, bastard doesn't deserve an honorable last battle. If you can find just ONE good reason why he's a threat to national security, I'll have Dad get some snipers to put bullets through his head!" she was pretty much seething over that... and probably a bit out of line. It'd take a heck of a national security threat to warrant a manhunt.
[9/11/2015 7:27:36 PM] Trespassingdream: That... gets a bit of a smile on Xue's face. Her eyes water for a bit but she manages to reign herself back in, ".. thanks." She manages. And then tries to more quickly try to get her food and get to the table before making a scene in line.
[9/11/2015 7:28:22 PM | Edited 7:28:50 PM] Recette: Nikki calms down a bit "I'm sorry, Dad would probably be pissed if I said that." she said, getting her food "It'd take more than that. But uh, yeah. It was just because it was so brazen a thing to do to a friend, real insult to real injury."
[9/11/2015 7:29:54 PM] Trespassingdream: "Yeah... I just.. I know.."
[9/11/2015 7:30:19 PM] Trespassingdream: She gets a bit quiet again for a bit then watches the table. She shakes her head a bit, trying to get on into eating.
[9/11/2015 7:30:24 PM] Trespassingdream: "... thanks."
[9/11/2015 7:33:10 PM] Trespassingdream: "He's probably just trying to draw me out. But because I'm at the college .. I'm surrounded by high profile targets. Makes it difficult to move."
[9/11/2015 7:38:39 PM] Trespassingdream: It was sweet. That outburst. But still hurt. Well.. good going Xue. Way to liven up the conversation.
[9/11/2015 7:42:20 PM] Recette: Nikki nodded, thinking "At some point, we'll have to do some counter-research. The more information I have, the higher the possibility I could draw him into a trap."
[9/11/2015 7:43:27 PM] Trespassingdream: She bites her lip in response. In thought. "... Nikki I.. listen you'll have to be careful. He might come after you."
[9/11/2015 7:47:22 PM] Recette: Nikki nods, smirks, and chuckled "I know. And if he's stupid enough to give me half a clue in advanced, I'll make sure he tries to assassinate a hand grenade instead."
[9/11/2015 7:48:28 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue gives a giggle and just closes her eyes. Nikki talks so macho some times. Its cute.
[9/11/2015 7:49:20 PM] Recette: Nikki blushed, and giggled a bit "Ehehe, guess we're getting a little carried away, right?"
[9/11/2015 7:49:46 PM] Trespassingdream: "I.. well.. could happen tomorrow. So. Not exactly carried away."
[9/11/2015 7:51:03 PM | Edited 7:51:33 PM] Recette: Nikki nodded, finishing her orange chicken "Yeah. So, uh, you want to go look for a car now?" she asked "Curious to see your tastes."
[9/11/2015 7:51:36 PM] Trespassingdream: "Uuh.. yeah.. I guess. Sorry its just.. been a bit of a while ride today."
[9/11/2015 7:52:15 PM] Trespassingdream: No brain. Stop. Oh stop. Stop stop. stop. Xue starts blushing. She lets out a slow breath and digs at her noodles a bit. "Ah.. well.. in a bit."
[9/11/2015 7:56:45 PM] Recette: Nikki nodded "Certainly sounds like it."
[9/11/2015 8:07:21 PM] Trespassingdream: It takes a minute or two but she calms enough and Xue smiles, "Well... ready to go?"
[9/15/2015 8:32:48 PM] Trespassingdream: "So yeah. I was thinking I might end up having to get another place. The one I have is.. nice.. but I may need a place to hide out in a pinch."
[9/15/2015 8:33:06 PM] Trespassingdream: "Probably something less of a dump though."
[9/15/2015 8:34:36 PM | Edited 8:34:46 PM] Recette: Nikki blushed "Well... uh... if needed, I have a condo. I mean, getting in and out is a bit trickier since there's more potential witnesses and stuff, not to mention harder to get in and out of easily being on a higher floor."
[9/15/2015 8:34:59 PM] Trespassingdream: That gets a blush, "Ah no! No no I mean.. ah.. don't think that'd be a good idea.."
[9/15/2015 8:35:07 PM] Trespassingdream: "No.. ah.. maybe.. something closer to campus..."
[9/15/2015 8:36:00 PM] Trespassingdream: Two of them? In the same building. "Um... maybe something in a tall building. Maybe an apartment. Makes it a bit more interesting to get in and out of if you keep the front door locked."
[9/15/2015 8:36:33 PM] Recette: Nikki nodded "Uh, yeah, that works too."
[9/15/2015 8:38:04 PM] Trespassingdream: That's... twice.. she's offered. Well. Good to know. Xue lets out a breath. "Hm. Well let's see what we can haggle out. What do you think. Motorcycle, or something a bit sporty?"
[9/15/2015 8:40:05 PM] Trespassingdream: "I mean.. we could all use.. a safe house. If you wanted to stash things there as well - you could. That way if we have to stop after a fight or hide out, we got a safe house established."
[9/15/2015 8:41:02 PM] Recette: Nikki nodded "I... well... t-that might be a good idea, yeah."
[9/15/2015 8:45:11 PM] Trespassingdream: "Not that.. we'd have to use it."
[9/15/2015 8:45:17 PM] Trespassingdream: "Ah.. but it'd be smart to set up."
[9/15/2015 8:51:25 PM] Recette: Nikki thought for a moment "Well, this... a stupid question. But if you hit somebody from the back of a motorcycle with your sword, would that damage your arm? I mean, it is cybernetic and stuff?"
[9/15/2015 8:51:46 PM] Trespassingdream: "It.. is."
[9/15/2015 8:52:16 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue stops for a moment. She slowly looks to Nikki and raises up her sleeve a bit beyond her gloves, showing the polished worked metal.
[9/15/2015 8:52:39 PM] Trespassingdream: "I should be fine. This level of craft is about as proficient as light Kevlar."
[9/15/2015 8:53:30 PM] Recette: Nikki smiled "Well then, you won't have to worry about being ambushed on the street then, right? Then again, they could try to blow out your tires."
[9/15/2015 8:54:13 PM] Trespassingdream: She giggles again, "Well I should be fine there as well.. I.. have enhanced reflexes."
[9/15/2015 8:55:43 PM] Recette: Nikki nodded "Alright, t-that's good. I wouldn't... well... wat you to get hurt. You... well... I don't want any of my friends getting hurt, you know?"
[9/15/2015 8:57:57 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue lets out a breath. "I.. umm.. thanks." She says in response. Her blush fades slowly as they continue, and she puts down the sleeve of her outfit. "I can't do too much these days to upgrade myself.. not many people are trained enough and there's only so much I can do by myself."
[9/15/2015 8:59:17 PM] Trespassingdream: "B-but I mean.. I have all sorts of other parts."
[9/15/2015 8:59:42 PM] Trespassingdream: "I mean.. " No. stop Xue. Gah. GAAAH! Come on.. "like... for repairs."
[9/15/2015 8:59:51 PM] Trespassingdream: ".. OH LOOK THE DEALERSHIP."
[9/15/2015 9:00:20 PM] Mitchell Anderson: One of the dealers is standing nearby...huh. Xue hasn't seen a Harpy working at the dealership before
[9/15/2015 9:00:52 PM] Recette: Nikki blushed deeply "Y-yeah, I-I mean, like legs, and you b... yeah, see anything you like. I mean, at the dealership."
[9/15/2015 9:01:48 PM] Trespassingdream: "SELL ME SOMETHING."
[9/15/2015 9:01:59 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue says trying to change the subject.
[9/15/2015 9:02:36 PM] Mitchell Anderson: He nods, pulls out an iPod, and hands her a contract
[9/15/2015 9:03:06 PM] Recette: Nikki gained her composure "Right... err... we should look around first, right?"
[9/15/2015 9:04:49 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue nods with vigor as she is tediously takikng the time to hide her face and read the terms of service.
[9/15/2015 9:07:30 PM] Trespassingdream: Afterwhich she says, "Your terms of agreement are currently unacceptable I will think of them on another time. Show me your automobiles." She says with as much focus as she can.
[9/15/2015 9:09:07 PM] Mitchell Anderson: Probably a good idea. This one actually included "IN the event you arise as a ghost, you are legally bound to work for this shop until such a time as you have paid off all automobile loans"
[9/15/2015 9:11:05 PM] Recette: Nikki raised an eyebrow "I'm pretty sure that the legal code says that contracts terminate anyways upon the death of the person in question."
[9/15/2015 9:11:27 PM] Trespassingdream: "... Cars please."
[9/15/2015 9:12:15 PM] Recette: Nikki still looked "I'd still be careful. Because if they tried something like that..."
[9/15/2015 9:12:54 PM] Trespassingdream: That gets a breath from her. "Right..."
[9/15/2015 9:13:12 PM] Mitchell Anderson: He, meanwhile, leads them towards the cars. Oooh, cool. The cars area ctually quite good
[9/15/2015 9:13:16 PM] Trespassingdream: "Well.. y-you could keep an eye out for ah.. anything like that." She says.
[9/15/2015 9:14:28 PM] Trespassingdream: "oh ..."
[9/15/2015 9:14:36 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue smiles a bit and goes to the cars, stroking them slowly.
[9/15/2015 9:15:48 PM] Trespassingdream: "Very nice." She says softly.
[9/15/2015 9:16:00 PM] Trespassingdream: "Alright. Well let's start browsing!"
[9/15/2015 9:18:06 PM] Trespassingdream: First thing she looks for is something... well cool. Nikki is with her. So Xue has to .. ah.. try and look.. cool. Or something umm.. awesome. Like a spy car.
[9/15/2015 9:18:31 PM] Recette: Nikki is still bitting her lower lip, a bit concerned.
[9/15/2015 9:20:24 PM] Trespassingdream: Because an Asian ninja in a sexy car? Is totally a Wu Xia plot device.
[9/15/2015 9:21:59 PM] Mitchell Anderson: She can see a nice car near the center of the lot.
[9/15/2015 9:22:09 PM] Recette: Nikki shrugged "Probably just be safer to use credit at the bank than here, just to be safe."
[9/15/2015 9:22:14 PM] Mitchell Anderson: (And, you may FP, but it will count towards the total in the Admin Adventure)
[9/15/2015 9:22:56 PM] Trespassingdream: (kay!)
[9/15/2015 9:23:55 PM] Trespassingdream: 4d6+0
4,3,6,3+0 = 16 (so +1? Then +2 from fate point)
[9/15/2015 9:24:22 PM] Trespassingdream: (so a Resources 7)
[9/15/2015 9:26:08 PM] Mitchell Anderson: One quick negotiation later...
[9/15/2015 9:26:16 PM] Mitchell Anderson: Xue gets a bran,d new, CAAAR!
[9/15/2015 9:28:28 PM] Trespassingdream: "nice..."
[9/15/2015 10:04:36 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue strokes over the car slowly. "Hello beautiful." She says softly to the vehicle. She watches the sleek engineering, letting out a soft breath as she admires the curves and edges of the powerful machine.
The dryad walked into the mall with the cyberninja, feeling slightly uncomfortable. She'd been asked if she wanted to go, and she reluctantly agreed "I just didn't have much else to do."
[9/11/2015 1:02:24 PM] Trespassingdream: (oh we could've started with the phone XD)
[9/11/2015 1:03:49 PM] Trespassingdream: That gets a bit of a smile from Xue. So Nikki does blush. Well she did it before. It was .. well.. anyway. "Hm? Oh I was just going to shop for some extra parts, maybe look into buying a vehicle. I've been taking a cab and stuff so far, could use a vehicle."
[9/11/2015 1:06:16 PM] Recette: Cars and parts? Well, Nikki had no idea about either thing, but it wouldn't hurt her image. She felt a bit relieved "Yeah, I saw there were a few dealerships around the mall. Not exactly many shops dedicated to cybernetics around here though. You planning on just repurposing some stuff from the electronics store?"
[9/11/2015 1:06:59 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue smiles a bit more. "Hm? Thought I was taking you clothes shopping?" She teases back.
[9/11/2015 1:09:32 PM] Recette: Nikki blushed a bit more "Yeah, I might have been thinking you might try to put me in a dress or something." she explained. That was something that, if all possible, she'd avoid doing. There was a reason she'd already bought a woman's pantsuit, just in case she had to go to something formal.
[9/11/2015 1:11:10 PM] Trespassingdream: "You know, there are worse things than wearing a dress right?" The ninja can't help the mirth. "Why don't you like it, if I can ask?"
[9/11/2015 1:14:02 PM] Recette: Nikki took a deep breath to calm down "Trying to establish a tomboy image, and dresses don't help that. Never liked them anyways." she explained.
[9/11/2015 1:15:23 PM] Trespassingdream: Bingo. Good opening. "Then maybe you should look into the class I'm going to join. The one for Uprights. Most 'tomboy's deal with engine repair and stuff or hunting."
[9/11/2015 1:21:45 PM] Recette: Nikki had always been... somewhat inept with tools. She couldn't admit that know; her pride was already slightly inflamed "Maybe I will." crap, she probably shot herself in the foot here "Maybe you should consider joining a few ROTC classes. Military stuff seems to be right up your alley."
[9/11/2015 1:22:38 PM] Trespassingdream: "Hmm... Well.. fighting yes. Tactics.. not so much." She says as they walk on. "Kind of ... hard to put a ninja as a soldier right? But.. if you think its a good idea, I could do it."
[9/11/2015 1:25:30 PM] Recette: Nikki nodded "Hey, you've got to plan your way in, right?" Nikki nodded "Maybe you aren't going to lead a squad, but still being able to outthink your enemy is still useful."
Nikki grinned "And what's an assassination but a REALLY effective one-on-flanking flanking."
[9/11/2015 1:28:15 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue gets a slight flush, "Well I guess so. Hm. So do you have something against dresses in general? Like if someone else wore one?"
[9/11/2015 1:30:49 PM] Recette: Nikki shook her head "No, I just don't like wearing them myself."
[9/11/2015 1:31:07 PM] Trespassingdream: "Personally.. I try to avoid it. Most of my parts are kind of chrome. So it is off putting. I'd have to .. kind of special make some parts to look better."
[9/11/2015 1:33:38 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue Fang hums a bit as she enters the electronics store.
[9/11/2015 1:34:06 PM] Recette: Nikki nodded, entering the electronic store with Xue.
[9/11/2015 1:35:00 PM] Trespassingdream: "So..." Xue let out a slow breath as she begins taking a count of things. "You.. seemed to know quite a bit about that.. fruit thing in class the other day. Dryad fruit?"
[9/11/2015 1:39:25 PM] Recette: "Yeah, dryad fruit. Community apparently does its best to incinerate dryad fruit trees. They look pretty normal, but the parasite apparently reworks your body to be prettier, and replaces all the parts of your nerve system except for the brain. We're immortal and heal fast, but the parasite eats our lifeforce, so we can't learn any psychic powers."
Nikki sighed "Trust me, the transformation frickin' hurts like Hell."
[9/11/2015 1:40:11 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue gives another nod and looks to Nikki, "What'd you look like before.. if you don't mind me asking?" She says. Its a bit soft, but she's trying to learn more about the other.
[9/11/2015 1:43:19 PM] Recette: Nikki answered "Pretty much the same, except more of a normal figure and looks. Grey eyes too. A bit more muscle tone too; dryad fruit infection saps physical strength from you. It's a good thing my fighting style was based off agility rather than simple physical strength in the first place in the first place." Nikki already had a few lies worked out, and that was one of them.
[9/11/2015 1:44:31 PM] Trespassingdream: "Oh okay."
[9/11/2015 1:45:08 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue blinks a few times and continues moving. It seemed pretty personal. Though it is a personal situation. Maybe she shouldn't have brought it up. "Well... I've asked you some stuff. Anything for me?"
[9/11/2015 1:46:46 PM] Recette: Nikki thought "So, is this just repairs, or is there anything you've got planned for that cybernetics stuff?"
[9/11/2015 1:47:12 PM] Trespassingdream: "Hm.. well... buying some stuff for replacements. Going to try and get some.. more flesh colored cybernetics."
[9/11/2015 1:47:31 PM] Trespassingdream: "Not ah.. for any particular reason or anything."
[9/11/2015 1:47:45 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue continues shopping a bit more.
[9/11/2015 1:48:14 PM] Trespassingdream: "They likely won't be as armored, but they could do for being more social."
[9/11/2015 1:54:32 PM | Edited 1:54:34 PM] Recette: Nikki nodded "Ah. Well, anything else down the line?"
[9/11/2015 1:55:08 PM] Trespassingdream: "Hmm... I think I've gotten all I can here. You want anything?"
[9/11/2015 1:58:05 PM] Recette: Nikki shrugged "Nothing in particular right now. At least nothing that I can afford right now."
[9/11/2015 1:59:45 PM] Trespassingdream: That gets a laugh, "Oh come on, what are you interested in?" She asks again.
[9/11/2015 1:59:51 PM] Mitchell Anderson: (brb)
[9/11/2015 2:00:20 PM] Mitchell Anderson: (Oh, an important thing to remember. you can invoke a freind's aspects, to give yourself a reroll if you're ever in combat against them...and then they get a fate point)
[9/11/2015 2:06:47 PM] Trespassingdream: (Oh the only thing she'd want to know is the boy part for Nikki XD)
[9/11/2015 2:07:02 PM] Trespassingdream: "I do have a bit of money you know. I don't act it, but I can probably get you anything you want."
[9/11/2015 2:09:35 PM] Recette: Nikki blushed "I-I couldn't ask that of you. That's still a nice chunk of money, you know. B-besides, even if I had the money, i-it wouldn't be worth the price tag." Not to mention Nikki's pride kept her from asking for that much.
[9/11/2015 2:10:13 PM] Trespassingdream: That get's Xue's attention. She giggles and looks at Nikki, "Listen.. I want to do something nice for you. What is it?" She asks again.
[9/11/2015 2:14:30 PM] Recette: Nikki's face is pretty red at this point "Xue, I can't ask this of you. B-besides, I-I'd probably owe you forever, or at least something super embaressing." she told her "T-there's a food court nearby. L-lunch there would be more reasonable."
[9/11/2015 2:18:56 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue bites her lip. "Right... " She says with a flush. "Sorry. Um.. let's just go get something to eat then." Stupid. Stupid stupid.. She pays for her stuff.. and manages a smile, trying to head out to the food court.
[9/11/2015 2:20:12 PM] Recette: Nikki was still blushing, though she cracked a sincere smile "You... um... don't need to apologize. I mean, it was a bit much, but it was still a nice offer, I mean."
[9/11/2015 2:20:56 PM] Trespassingdream: "No I mean.. I understand. Uh.. right." She still ... felt a bit foolish. Very much so. But maybe if she just got something to eat it'd work out. "So, what kinda food?"
[9/11/2015 2:22:56 PM | Edited 2:23:02 PM] Recette: Nikki nodded "Well, there's this Chinese stand that's uh... uuuuuuh." Nikki blushed again. Wait to go, Nikki.
[9/11/2015 2:23:05 PM] Trespassingdream: That gets a bit of a laugh.
[9/11/2015 2:23:16 PM] Trespassingdream: "Ah.. s-sure.."
[9/11/2015 2:23:24 PM] Trespassingdream: Oh.. oh brain don't go there. Um.. right just food.
[9/11/2015 2:28:05 PM] Trespassingdream: "Lead the way?"
[9/11/2015 2:30:16 PM] Recette: Nikki nodded "Right." and lead the way to the food court. There were several other places, but the line was long due to a new menu item there "The line's a bit longer than usual. Anywhere else look nice to you?"
[9/11/2015 2:31:22 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue takes a look around the area. "Hm.. food is food for the most part.. this is great." Don't speak too much Xue gosh. She sighs a bit but manages a smile. "Hm? Unless you wanna go some place else?"
[9/11/2015 2:34:45 PM] Recette: Nikki shrugged "Eh, I guess I've got time. I mean, if there's not somewhere you'd rather go." she told her, blushing just a little.
[9/11/2015 2:36:27 PM] Trespassingdream: "No I mean.. I'm good."
[9/11/2015 2:37:07 PM] Trespassingdream: She's got time? Great Xue.. so.. now you're just 'spending time'. Friend zoned. Maybe. Alright just focus. "So.. um.. what kind of food do you like, obviously Chinese?"
[9/11/2015 6:46:53 PM] Recette: Nikki shrugged "I'm not that picky." she smiled "Dad wouldn't let me be." the dryad explained.
[9/11/2015 6:47:47 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue gets a bit of a laugh. Then.. ah.. gets a little more quiet. Her smile is a bit more challenged now as she looks to the menu, thinking things over.
[9/11/2015 7:13:58 PM] Trespassingdream: When her turn comes Xue orders a some chow mein, but is still relatively quiet. She finally breaks her silence, "I.. haven't found a place that does good baozi since I got here.. gotta keep an eye out for that."
[9/11/2015 7:16:28 PM] Recette: "Hey Xue, what's eating you?" Nikki asked. Nikki smiled, and ordered Orange Chicken.
[9/11/2015 7:17:05 PM] Trespassingdream: "Dad's." She says with a bit of a shrug.
[9/11/2015 7:17:55 PM] Trespassingdream: "Sorry... saw another commercial for that movie the other day."
[9/11/2015 7:18:02 PM] Trespassingdream: "Just .. kinda kept things in my face."
[9/11/2015 7:19:00 PM] Recette: "Wait, what?" Nikki asked "Movie? Some movie strike a raw note?"
[9/11/2015 7:20:05 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue takes a slower breath. "Yeah.." She says. "... remember ah.. what I told you about.. ugh. Well.. the guy that took my father out... he's making a movie about it."
[9/11/2015 7:21:55 PM] Trespassingdream: "And apparently, I'm the love interest he 'rescues' in the movie."
[9/11/2015 7:26:02 PM] Recette: Nikki stood still for a moment, shocked, merely saying "What?"
At that point Nikki was pretty darn angry "Are you frickin' kidding me!? That- bastard!"
A bit unreasonable at this point she angrily shouted "Okay then, bastard doesn't deserve an honorable last battle. If you can find just ONE good reason why he's a threat to national security, I'll have Dad get some snipers to put bullets through his head!" she was pretty much seething over that... and probably a bit out of line. It'd take a heck of a national security threat to warrant a manhunt.
[9/11/2015 7:27:36 PM] Trespassingdream: That... gets a bit of a smile on Xue's face. Her eyes water for a bit but she manages to reign herself back in, ".. thanks." She manages. And then tries to more quickly try to get her food and get to the table before making a scene in line.
[9/11/2015 7:28:22 PM | Edited 7:28:50 PM] Recette: Nikki calms down a bit "I'm sorry, Dad would probably be pissed if I said that." she said, getting her food "It'd take more than that. But uh, yeah. It was just because it was so brazen a thing to do to a friend, real insult to real injury."
[9/11/2015 7:29:54 PM] Trespassingdream: "Yeah... I just.. I know.."
[9/11/2015 7:30:19 PM] Trespassingdream: She gets a bit quiet again for a bit then watches the table. She shakes her head a bit, trying to get on into eating.
[9/11/2015 7:30:24 PM] Trespassingdream: "... thanks."
[9/11/2015 7:33:10 PM] Trespassingdream: "He's probably just trying to draw me out. But because I'm at the college .. I'm surrounded by high profile targets. Makes it difficult to move."
[9/11/2015 7:38:39 PM] Trespassingdream: It was sweet. That outburst. But still hurt. Well.. good going Xue. Way to liven up the conversation.
[9/11/2015 7:42:20 PM] Recette: Nikki nodded, thinking "At some point, we'll have to do some counter-research. The more information I have, the higher the possibility I could draw him into a trap."
[9/11/2015 7:43:27 PM] Trespassingdream: She bites her lip in response. In thought. "... Nikki I.. listen you'll have to be careful. He might come after you."
[9/11/2015 7:47:22 PM] Recette: Nikki nods, smirks, and chuckled "I know. And if he's stupid enough to give me half a clue in advanced, I'll make sure he tries to assassinate a hand grenade instead."
[9/11/2015 7:48:28 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue gives a giggle and just closes her eyes. Nikki talks so macho some times. Its cute.
[9/11/2015 7:49:20 PM] Recette: Nikki blushed, and giggled a bit "Ehehe, guess we're getting a little carried away, right?"
[9/11/2015 7:49:46 PM] Trespassingdream: "I.. well.. could happen tomorrow. So. Not exactly carried away."
[9/11/2015 7:51:03 PM | Edited 7:51:33 PM] Recette: Nikki nodded, finishing her orange chicken "Yeah. So, uh, you want to go look for a car now?" she asked "Curious to see your tastes."
[9/11/2015 7:51:36 PM] Trespassingdream: "Uuh.. yeah.. I guess. Sorry its just.. been a bit of a while ride today."
[9/11/2015 7:52:15 PM] Trespassingdream: No brain. Stop. Oh stop. Stop stop. stop. Xue starts blushing. She lets out a slow breath and digs at her noodles a bit. "Ah.. well.. in a bit."
[9/11/2015 7:56:45 PM] Recette: Nikki nodded "Certainly sounds like it."
[9/11/2015 8:07:21 PM] Trespassingdream: It takes a minute or two but she calms enough and Xue smiles, "Well... ready to go?"
[9/15/2015 8:32:48 PM] Trespassingdream: "So yeah. I was thinking I might end up having to get another place. The one I have is.. nice.. but I may need a place to hide out in a pinch."
[9/15/2015 8:33:06 PM] Trespassingdream: "Probably something less of a dump though."
[9/15/2015 8:34:36 PM | Edited 8:34:46 PM] Recette: Nikki blushed "Well... uh... if needed, I have a condo. I mean, getting in and out is a bit trickier since there's more potential witnesses and stuff, not to mention harder to get in and out of easily being on a higher floor."
[9/15/2015 8:34:59 PM] Trespassingdream: That gets a blush, "Ah no! No no I mean.. ah.. don't think that'd be a good idea.."
[9/15/2015 8:35:07 PM] Trespassingdream: "No.. ah.. maybe.. something closer to campus..."
[9/15/2015 8:36:00 PM] Trespassingdream: Two of them? In the same building. "Um... maybe something in a tall building. Maybe an apartment. Makes it a bit more interesting to get in and out of if you keep the front door locked."
[9/15/2015 8:36:33 PM] Recette: Nikki nodded "Uh, yeah, that works too."
[9/15/2015 8:38:04 PM] Trespassingdream: That's... twice.. she's offered. Well. Good to know. Xue lets out a breath. "Hm. Well let's see what we can haggle out. What do you think. Motorcycle, or something a bit sporty?"
[9/15/2015 8:40:05 PM] Trespassingdream: "I mean.. we could all use.. a safe house. If you wanted to stash things there as well - you could. That way if we have to stop after a fight or hide out, we got a safe house established."
[9/15/2015 8:41:02 PM] Recette: Nikki nodded "I... well... t-that might be a good idea, yeah."
[9/15/2015 8:45:11 PM] Trespassingdream: "Not that.. we'd have to use it."
[9/15/2015 8:45:17 PM] Trespassingdream: "Ah.. but it'd be smart to set up."
[9/15/2015 8:51:25 PM] Recette: Nikki thought for a moment "Well, this... a stupid question. But if you hit somebody from the back of a motorcycle with your sword, would that damage your arm? I mean, it is cybernetic and stuff?"
[9/15/2015 8:51:46 PM] Trespassingdream: "It.. is."
[9/15/2015 8:52:16 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue stops for a moment. She slowly looks to Nikki and raises up her sleeve a bit beyond her gloves, showing the polished worked metal.
[9/15/2015 8:52:39 PM] Trespassingdream: "I should be fine. This level of craft is about as proficient as light Kevlar."
[9/15/2015 8:53:30 PM] Recette: Nikki smiled "Well then, you won't have to worry about being ambushed on the street then, right? Then again, they could try to blow out your tires."
[9/15/2015 8:54:13 PM] Trespassingdream: She giggles again, "Well I should be fine there as well.. I.. have enhanced reflexes."
[9/15/2015 8:55:43 PM] Recette: Nikki nodded "Alright, t-that's good. I wouldn't... well... wat you to get hurt. You... well... I don't want any of my friends getting hurt, you know?"
[9/15/2015 8:57:57 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue lets out a breath. "I.. umm.. thanks." She says in response. Her blush fades slowly as they continue, and she puts down the sleeve of her outfit. "I can't do too much these days to upgrade myself.. not many people are trained enough and there's only so much I can do by myself."
[9/15/2015 8:59:17 PM] Trespassingdream: "B-but I mean.. I have all sorts of other parts."
[9/15/2015 8:59:42 PM] Trespassingdream: "I mean.. " No. stop Xue. Gah. GAAAH! Come on.. "like... for repairs."
[9/15/2015 8:59:51 PM] Trespassingdream: ".. OH LOOK THE DEALERSHIP."
[9/15/2015 9:00:20 PM] Mitchell Anderson: One of the dealers is standing nearby...huh. Xue hasn't seen a Harpy working at the dealership before
[9/15/2015 9:00:52 PM] Recette: Nikki blushed deeply "Y-yeah, I-I mean, like legs, and you b... yeah, see anything you like. I mean, at the dealership."
[9/15/2015 9:01:48 PM] Trespassingdream: "SELL ME SOMETHING."
[9/15/2015 9:01:59 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue says trying to change the subject.
[9/15/2015 9:02:36 PM] Mitchell Anderson: He nods, pulls out an iPod, and hands her a contract
[9/15/2015 9:03:06 PM] Recette: Nikki gained her composure "Right... err... we should look around first, right?"
[9/15/2015 9:04:49 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue nods with vigor as she is tediously takikng the time to hide her face and read the terms of service.
[9/15/2015 9:07:30 PM] Trespassingdream: Afterwhich she says, "Your terms of agreement are currently unacceptable I will think of them on another time. Show me your automobiles." She says with as much focus as she can.
[9/15/2015 9:09:07 PM] Mitchell Anderson: Probably a good idea. This one actually included "IN the event you arise as a ghost, you are legally bound to work for this shop until such a time as you have paid off all automobile loans"
[9/15/2015 9:11:05 PM] Recette: Nikki raised an eyebrow "I'm pretty sure that the legal code says that contracts terminate anyways upon the death of the person in question."
[9/15/2015 9:11:27 PM] Trespassingdream: "... Cars please."
[9/15/2015 9:12:15 PM] Recette: Nikki still looked "I'd still be careful. Because if they tried something like that..."
[9/15/2015 9:12:54 PM] Trespassingdream: That gets a breath from her. "Right..."
[9/15/2015 9:13:12 PM] Mitchell Anderson: He, meanwhile, leads them towards the cars. Oooh, cool. The cars area ctually quite good
[9/15/2015 9:13:16 PM] Trespassingdream: "Well.. y-you could keep an eye out for ah.. anything like that." She says.
[9/15/2015 9:14:28 PM] Trespassingdream: "oh ..."
[9/15/2015 9:14:36 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue smiles a bit and goes to the cars, stroking them slowly.
[9/15/2015 9:15:48 PM] Trespassingdream: "Very nice." She says softly.
[9/15/2015 9:16:00 PM] Trespassingdream: "Alright. Well let's start browsing!"
[9/15/2015 9:18:06 PM] Trespassingdream: First thing she looks for is something... well cool. Nikki is with her. So Xue has to .. ah.. try and look.. cool. Or something umm.. awesome. Like a spy car.
[9/15/2015 9:18:31 PM] Recette: Nikki is still bitting her lower lip, a bit concerned.
[9/15/2015 9:20:24 PM] Trespassingdream: Because an Asian ninja in a sexy car? Is totally a Wu Xia plot device.
[9/15/2015 9:21:59 PM] Mitchell Anderson: She can see a nice car near the center of the lot.
[9/15/2015 9:22:09 PM] Recette: Nikki shrugged "Probably just be safer to use credit at the bank than here, just to be safe."
[9/15/2015 9:22:14 PM] Mitchell Anderson: (And, you may FP, but it will count towards the total in the Admin Adventure)
[9/15/2015 9:22:56 PM] Trespassingdream: (kay!)
[9/15/2015 9:23:55 PM] Trespassingdream: 4d6+0
4,3,6,3+0 = 16 (so +1? Then +2 from fate point)
[9/15/2015 9:24:22 PM] Trespassingdream: (so a Resources 7)
[9/15/2015 9:26:08 PM] Mitchell Anderson: One quick negotiation later...
[9/15/2015 9:26:16 PM] Mitchell Anderson: Xue gets a bran,d new, CAAAR!
[9/15/2015 9:28:28 PM] Trespassingdream: "nice..."
[9/15/2015 10:04:36 PM] Trespassingdream: Xue strokes over the car slowly. "Hello beautiful." She says softly to the vehicle. She watches the sleek engineering, letting out a soft breath as she admires the curves and edges of the powerful machine.
