Day 2

[personal profile] neversurrender 2012-08-01 03:40 am (UTC)(link)
[He hesitates for a second before accepting the shirt and pulling it on over his head.]

Okay. You ready?
fleurdesel: center, confused, angry, sarcastic (That's...not right.)

Day 2

[personal profile] fleurdesel 2012-08-01 03:42 am (UTC)(link)
As much as I have ever been to walk through a door hand in hand with a man I've no name for.

[She offers him her hand and after a moment, her own name.] Adele. And you are?
neversurrender: ([PB] owes Fury a fiver)

Day 2

[personal profile] neversurrender 2012-08-01 03:46 am (UTC)(link)
[He accepts her hand and replies.]

I'm Steve. Steve Rogers.
fleurdesel: center, smirk, smile, sarcastic (And I'm still right.)

Day 2

[personal profile] fleurdesel 2012-08-01 03:47 am (UTC)(link)
A pleasure to meet you Steve. Shall we?

[She nods at the door to her room. Worst comes to worst- he'll leave without her. Or she'll end up wherever he went.]
neversurrender: ([PB] holy shi-)

Day 2

[personal profile] neversurrender 2012-08-01 03:51 am (UTC)(link)
Alright.

[Hand-in-hand he walks them over to the door and steps through. And suddenly finds himself standing in the middle of the fountain, shirtless, and with an equally shirtless Adele standing next to him.]

Apparently that's what happens.
fleurdesel: left, tired, angry, sad, confused (That. That is just. No. Just No.)

Day 2

[personal profile] fleurdesel 2012-08-01 03:54 am (UTC)(link)
[One moment they're in her home, walking to the hallway- there's not even a transitory moment. Not that strange dropping sensation she had when Helios used his teleportation spell, not the odd pop of Law's, not the strange twist of the displacement shift.

They were simply one place one moment, and in the middle of the fountain the next.

And she was without a shirt as well, leaving her bare to the waist.]


Merde.

[She crosses her arms over her chest and rubs her face with a hand.]
neversurrender: ([PB] don't sneak up behind me)

Day 2

[personal profile] neversurrender 2012-08-01 04:00 am (UTC)(link)
[Steve averts his eyes, wishing he had something to offer her to cover herself. But as if was, all he had on him was his pants-thankfully.]

Maybe we'll have some luck going into the clothes shop. You can get a shirt to put on.
fleurdesel: left, irritated, tired, confused (Irritated)

Day 2

[personal profile] fleurdesel 2012-08-01 04:03 am (UTC)(link)
[She's muttering violent obscenities into her palm for the moment. Once she's a little less mortified, she nods.]

You as well. Honestly, I should have expected this much.
neversurrender: ([PB] getting back into the world)

Day 2

[personal profile] neversurrender 2012-08-02 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
You don't have to worry about me. I'm getting used to it. But maybe I should wait outside.

If I go through with you, we might end up on someones roof or something instead.
fleurdesel: left, serious, sarcastic (Right. Whatever.)

Day 2

[personal profile] fleurdesel 2012-08-02 02:57 am (UTC)(link)
...And I would much rather avoid ending up on a roof while shirtless.

[With a sigh and an arm still tightly wrapped around herself for the sake of modesty, Adele climbs out of the fountain and jogs for the clothing store. She grabs the first two shirts available, over sized as they were, and pulls on the first. The other she folds over her arm as she jogs back to Steve.]

It truly dose seem to be centered around you.
neversurrender: ([PB] don't sneak up behind me)

Day 2

[personal profile] neversurrender 2012-08-02 08:46 am (UTC)(link)
[By the time she comes back, Steve has climbed out of the fountain and is sitting next to it. He glances up when she nears but doesn't look surprised by her comment. By now he's sure that the odds of him teleporting when he goes through a door is pretty close to 100%.]

Lucky me. Though if the Mallies wanted to make me feel appreciated, I wish you'd find another way.

fleurdesel: left, smile, smirk, sarcastic (This is not smug)

Day 2

[personal profile] fleurdesel 2012-08-02 09:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Perhaps this is a reward for the rest of the village- it's not often we are treated, at random, to a statuesque shirtless man in our homes.

[The shirt is offered with a half smile.]

Or perhaps they are attempting a more base approach with matchmaking? I can't say.
neversurrender: ([PB] just another saturday night)

Day 2

[personal profile] neversurrender 2012-08-02 10:10 pm (UTC)(link)
[He accepts the offered shirt and quickly pulls it on. But even having a shirt on can't completely diminish the faint blush on his cheeks. Really he needs to learn to accept compliments without turning into a tomato.]

Matchmaking? They actually do that here?
fleurdesel: center, confused, angry, sarcastic (That's...not right.)

Day 2

[personal profile] fleurdesel 2012-08-02 10:13 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll warn you early- you may not be here when the time comes, but if you are? The week surrounding Valentines has a very predictable shift. Random romance, more or less. That particular experiment aside they also tend to pair up individuals whenever they see fit to change our memories and histories. It's been worse than what I've endured, and stranger for it.

[She does her best to not raise an eyebrow at the blush. He was well built, he should be aware of it- of course it makes her think of another well built man and wonder how he's doing with this whole mess. She should contact him later, to be certain.]
neversurrender: ([PB] intense staring is intense)

Day 2

[personal profile] neversurrender 2012-08-02 10:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[Random romances, memory and history changes. Steve files all these away to think on later. But if he wasn't already questioning the Mallies' methods, he definitely is now.]

They can do that? Push people together and change their memories?
fleurdesel: left, serious, smile, work (I have a moment)

Day 2

[personal profile] fleurdesel 2012-08-02 10:22 pm (UTC)(link)
The Valentine's shift was my first. I'd only been in the village a month and it was...disconcerting, to say the least, when I came out of it. They can change what you remember, what you feel, even your body. The shirt I gave you earlier? Mine from a week I spent as a man.
neversurrender: ([PB] tenchcoat love)

Day 2

[personal profile] neversurrender 2012-08-02 10:41 pm (UTC)(link)
[This place is going from bad to worse in his mind.]

And no one knows anything about why they want to use us as experiments?
fleurdesel: right, smirk, sarcastic (And that's why I'm here.)

Day 2

[personal profile] fleurdesel 2012-08-02 10:44 pm (UTC)(link)
There are several theories. The first is that they're attempting to learn to manipulate the natural shifts of this world- the ones that pull us from our lives and times and put us here, in order to find a way to return home. The Malnosso aren't native by any means. Another theory is that they're trying to find a way to weaponize the shifts to use against the third party. The last, and the one I'm most fond of is this: They do these things because they can, or because they have no idea what they're doing.
neversurrender: ([PB] the costume has pockets!)

Day 2

[personal profile] neversurrender 2012-08-02 10:46 pm (UTC)(link)
But do you believe that? That they have no idea what they're doing?
fleurdesel: right, sad, serious, tired (Keep talking. I'm walking.)

Day 2

[personal profile] fleurdesel 2012-08-02 10:50 pm (UTC)(link)
I believe there is more than one faction at work, even within the primary organization. Circles within circles that want different results. That would account for the wide variety in tone with the experiments. Too many cooks in the kitchen ruins the soup. Too many scientists working with a single project, and not all of the same mind? Chaos.

Some might know what they are doing for their interests, some might not be aware, some might be omniscient. Some of the more daring experiments have worked, if with side effects, as they were promised. Despite an earlier offer that was to have similar results, the experiment I volunteered for did exactly what it meant to. I saw a new world.

And then we've experiments like this, that seem to serve no purpose.
neversurrender: ([PB] looks good in uniform)

Day 2

[personal profile] neversurrender 2012-08-02 10:59 pm (UTC)(link)
[It seems like she's spent some time thinking about this. Which is a good thing. The better the theories, the better their chances of being right.]

It that's true then it doesn't seem like they're nearly as organized as one would think. If they truly are all working toward their own, different purposes. [Which they might be able to use against them.]
fleurdesel: right, confused, serious, angry (and then...?)

Day 2

[personal profile] fleurdesel 2012-08-02 11:06 pm (UTC)(link)
A split foundation makes for a weaker structure. Too many branches and the whole thing will topple over. Not...exactly what my sister was discussing when she said this, but, it's applicable enough I should think.
neversurrender: ([PB] you have my attention)

Day 2

[personal profile] neversurrender 2012-08-05 04:58 am (UTC)(link)
[He knows it's only a theory so far; but one that sounds like it has a good basis. And if it is true, Steve figures their chances of taking down the Mallies are better than he could have hoped.

He'd definitely be bringing these ideas to his allies later.]


With conditions like that, all that would be needed is a little push in the right direction...
fleurdesel: right, smirk, angry, confused, sarcastic (Forgive me if I don't trust you)

Day 2

[personal profile] fleurdesel 2012-08-05 05:03 am (UTC)(link)
We've pushed, recently. Valuable information came to light- at a price, yes, but I think it was worth it. [She lifts a shoulder and looks out.]

...

You sound as though you think you've strength enough to push. Might I ask why?
neversurrender: ([PB] just another saturday night)

Day 2

[personal profile] neversurrender 2012-08-05 05:15 am (UTC)(link)
[He shots her a curious look, unsure whether it would be too forward of him to ask what information she's talking about. She has no reason to trust him, and since he also doesn't know her very well, his own responses are going to be vague at best. Mostly to protect the others than himself.]

At the risk of sounding overconfident, I've made a life out of pushing back. Also, I don't like bullies. And it's clear to me that that's what the Mallies are.
