Who: Everyone! New Feathers especially.
What: New Feather welcome party!
When: Thursday, 5 pm.
Where: Battle Dome
Summary: IT'S A SUMMER PARTY
Rating: Worksafe, I reckon!
It's cold out there today, isn't it? Sure, it's not snowing but once you get into the Battle Dome, it'll be comfortably warmer. Warmer, not warm. Follow the tiny paper arrows and you'll probably find yourself in, well...summer!

It certainly looks convincing enough (a pool, a volleyball court, deck chairs, everything that you'd think you'd find at a pool party) and feels convincing enough (take off that coat! Aren't you hot?) so why not not step in? The barbecue's sizzling and there's some nice cold drinks at the cooler.

C'mon in, the water's awesome!

Adele considers this for a moment, running the phrase around in her mind before managing a half smile and nod of her head. Of course.

"I suppose I shall add that name to my ever growing list of contacts to make while I am here...Ginia? Hm." She turns to look back and over, watching the young woman she now lived with, somewhat puzzled. But not entirely. Perhaps she could ask Ginia later.

"...I will admit that I was unaware she was skilled but she does carry herself in that way, doesn't she?" A lightness about he step, a grace, an economy of movement. "I'd assumed it was her background in dance."

She turns back to face Lupin, eyes dimming a moment before she shakes her head. It wouldn't matter if she remembered. "You are referring to recalling skills I learn here when I return. There will be no need for them after I leave Luceti."

"Fighting. Dancing. They're the same when you get down to it." Both involved the same skill, finesse, and awareness. The fighting styles that were disguised as dance corroborated this.

Though his tone was flippant, he sobered at Adele's reaction for a second time. He didn't smile, and kept his hands carefully by his side, but watched her with dark, unflinching eyes. "Explain."

He wouldn't judge, but he couldn't guarantee sympathy.

"One involves a little more violence than the other. But only a little." She lifts a shoulder, glancing back over to Ginia once more before returning her attention to suddenly blank Lupin. In the short time she's come to know him he's always been expressive, a nuanced smirk, a maniac grin, a troubled frown but this...she wasn't certain how to react. So she laid one of her cards on the table.

She stands, hands loose at her side, trying to keep herself from resting one over where the wound should be. Where it was, weeks and a reality ago. Her voice is soft, but level. Something she knew for certain, something she'd been resigned to for days before it ever happened. "...upon my return I will bleed out in less than sixty seconds."

He wanted something. He always found a way to get what he wanted, even if it meant acting like the criminal that he was. "Are you sure?"

He asks this, but he's already crossing her off of the short list of his possible allies in Luceti.

"Without immediate medical assistance? I'm certain of it." Adele brushes her hair back from her eyes and gives a strange little half smile to no one in particular. "Though I must admit, I got further than I had anticipated. I don't mind dying. Not when I know it's finished."
redjacketthief: (he's a nice man)

He has nothing for that, Adele. He was expecting a little anger against the machine here, not amused acceptance.

There's a curious smile on his face when he speaks up. "You are a strange woman."

Not that he didn't understand her sentiment.

"So I have been told by many men and women. At this point? I choose to take that as a compliment." And it may end for her when she leaves but...she did the right thing. She knows she did. And that makes everything worth it. Even if she has low days, it was worth it. As long as she continues to remind herself of that, she can hold together.
