no subject
I'm still banned, so we'd have to stealth in. The manager made it pretty clear it was a lifetime ban, but whatever. I don't think I can pass as Yang though. I really don't have the Yang-Pizzaz needed to do that.
no subject
Well lifetime sounds more like challenge accepted to me. So we'll get you in. Okay. That's a good point but I still think we could make it work.
Wait wait! I have a great idea. What if we tried the slippers? This might taken some experimenting but you could try wearing them on your hands and clicking them together? Then you'll just teleport right in?
Genius!
no subject
I thought you might say that somehow.
[And then off she goes into a plan and he kind of... stares for a moment.]
Ruby did you just suggest I wear your slippers on my hands and clap?
...
You know the worst thing is I can't actually see a reason why it wouldn't work. But you'd need to be inisde first, so I can teleport to you. Because that's how it works, right?
no subject
[Her grin goes even wider when he puts the plan together.]
Yes! Like it'll be an awkward clap because like heel clicking and clapping aren't the same, but it's definitely close enough!
Yeah, but I'm only banned from the drive in, not the movie theatre. So I can totally get in. Even if I couldn't I've still got my cloak that I can use to get in. Or my semblance. Or a disguise!
So I'll go in get us snacks and a seat and I'll just send you a message when you are good to teleport in.
Flawless plan, right?
[Look who's going to use her cellphone in the movie theatre.]
no subject
Okay, sure- why not? It's been a while since I did something probably reckless.
[It's was like 3 weeks ago when you lost your leg, Varian.]
Video -> Action
[Three weeks was a lot of time in the short life expectancy club, Ruby was almost always geared up to try something new and dangerous.]
Give me just a second, I'll be there in a jiffy.
[She sets down her fluid and the sound of things being shuffled around and a few pairs of clothes fly past the camera.]
Ah! There they are.
[Insert some time of her putting on the slippers and she picks up her fluid again. A second later the camera positioning suddenly changes and Varian can see himself on screen. Ruby is standing a few feet away from him wherever she ended up, holding her fluid in one hand. She gives him a friendly salute.]
Ta-dah~!
no subject
Okay, let's try this potentially insane plan of yours.
no subject
[It takes her a second to get the slippers off and then put her boots. She then hands him the slippers.]
Okay. Now... I don't know how far away you have to be from someone to make them work, but let's try this.
[And unlike a normal person she doesn't go and use the door. She steps over to his window and opens it up. She casually leaps out it like a crazy person and uses her semblance to blast over across the road. Once she's there she raises her arms up and waves her arms.]
Alright, ready over here!
no subject
[He takes the slippers- awkwardly slipping the on his hands. It means he has to lean on his crutches rather than hold them, but it's not impossible. Just unwieldy. He doesn't have enough time to register what she's doing before she's already leaping out of the window. He manages a yelp of horror before... nope she's already done it. ]
You know doors exist right?
[Still. He gives this a try, slapping the slippers together. In a flash, he teleports next to her.]
...Yup. That's never not gonna feel really weird.
no subject
Doors are boring! This was faster!
[Ruby waits outside patiently for him to give the slippers a try. Honestly there were a million things that could have gone wrong with this plan but her eyes brighten in delight as none of them occur. She let's out a giddy squeal when they do and he winds up beside her.]
Yeah, I'd like to say you get used to it but it's kind of always gives you a weird feeling in your stomach.
But they work, That's awesome! Operation sneak into the theatre is a go!
[And then she has to back pedal on the whole crime thing.]
I think by this point he should be used to it? What's he going to do, arrest me? It'll be like the fourth time someone from Atlas tried.
...But I guess they succeeded once. So maybe I shouldn't talk.
no subject
[Varian could probably calculate to the decimal point how many ways this could have gone wrong. ]
Gotta admit? Not a fan of the stomach feeling. Yeesh. It's almost as queasy as the semblance thing.
[Because being broken down to your basic molecular structure and being dragged a distance away by a manic pixie girl it a pretty weird experience.
Thanks, Penny. He arches his brow, letting out a soft, amused sound. ]Ya-huh. And I guess that's a point. He could always tell the Fuzz on you. Have you seen him talking to any cats lately?
Manic Pixie Girl, Ruby!!!!!!! I have never felt so attacked
It's not ideal. That's for sure.
[She looks a little offended hearing that her semblance makes him queazy but she smiles that off and ruffles at his hair instead.]
Wow. Rude. Pretty sure my Semblance has saved us both enough times to get a bit more respect than that.
[She starts to walk back toward his house now that they know the slippers work. No sense standing across the road like weirdos.]
Huh. Hadn't really thought about that. I haven't but that doesn't mean he isn't. Cops like to protect their own, so I could see him mingling with them.
AND YET
[He hobbles after her, not doing that great with the crutches AND the slippers but he's doing his best. ]
They probably meet in some secret cop tavern or something. In the dead of night. To plan how to enforce rules.
THERE IS NO LIE
[It takes her a second but she notices the hobble the trouble he's having. There's a pang of nervous anxiety as she's not sure whether to offer to take them or not. She doesn't want to sting at his pride so instead she just slows down her pace to match his. Once they cross the street she'll offer to take them off his hands.]
That sounds about right... I think cops hang around at donut shops. Or at least that's what they usually do on TV. But I can't really picture Clover eating a donut. Or the Fuzz, so you might be onto something.
Either way there is definitely scheming.
no subject
Just putting that thought out there. I'd watch him a little more closely now if I were you. Just to be safe.
[Sorry, not sorry Clover. He turns to give her a smile.]
But we can save that for after the movie. And the millions of snacks that we're gonna end up with.
[He knows what you're like, Ruby. He knows.]
no subject
Not a bad idea! Hey maybe we could do some late night surveillance, like a stake out. Try and catch them in the act of all their conspiring?
[Because no one would ever notice the dinged up truck hopping a curb to stalk them.]
Deal~! Oh my god, the snacks. I'm going to need a backpack and my cargo pants!
Oh! Since you're teleporting in we can get you a backpack too! It'll be perfect.
no subject
I need you to think long and hard before you commit to this, Ruby, and I need you to honestly ask yourself if you are capable of a stakeout. Because that involves sitting down and doing nothing for very long periods of time.
[He's not saying that you have a really short attention span except that's exactly what he's saying. Still, he laughs. ]
Okay, okay. That sounds like a lot of snacks so you're right, we'd better prepare properly for them.
no subject
It-
Lasts about five seconds before there's a look that could suggest there is something burning in her head.]
I mean... I could bring some music or something? That'd help pass the time?
[She grins and wraps an arm over his shoulder light and loose after he laughs.]
So when were you thinking of doing this? Tonight? Later on this week?
Shouldn't be too hard now that we've got our entrance plan.
no subject
[Does his tone suggest he doesn't think she's capable of that? KINDA. Still, he smiles.]
We can do it tonight. That'd be nice. It'll be a break from... everything.
no subject
[She's genuinely not sure about this. Look technology kind of boomed in her world. She doesn't know what he has or doesn't have back home.]
Tonight it is! I'd say I'd pick you up-But it looks like you've got your own ride.
no subject
[Ruby, please.]
Looks like I have! Here's hoping I don't crash into a wall with them.
no subject
Wait-no-I take that back. That might have something to do with why you can sing so good.
Never mind.
[She can't help it.]
Don't worry, I've probably got you covered on that front!
[Ruby. That is not something you should be proud of.]
no subject
...But thanks, I think?
[HE SO UNSURE ABOUT THAT.]
Okay. I'm holding you to that. No walls.
no subject
You've got all this magic and stuff but no but no light switches.
It's a compliment. A huge one, actually.
[HE REALLY SHOULD BE.]
What about street lamps? Are they fair game?
no subject
...
I mean, if you feel a need to destroy them, but if the Authority go after you I'm gonna deny all knowledge.
