[Video]

[As the video turns on the scene is dark. Some may recognize it as the observation deck of Tokyo Tower. A long legged pale girl is admiring the view while a gravely voice over starts up.]

She was as pale as a drop of moonlight come to life and given legs that just wouldn't quit. A shock of blinding pink hair draws the eyes immediately upwards and the way she's styled it brings to mind thoughts of witches and all sorts of wicked beast women of the night.

[The girl in question stiffens and gives the camera a very dry unappreciative look]

Her eyes were the same shade as her hair with slits like a tailmon for pupils. Her stare was as cold as a winter night when you're alone with your thoughts and not enough bits to buy a bottle of liquid heat to fend off either of them.

[Her stare turns to puzzlement before the voice clarifies]

Booze, to fend off your thoughts and the chill.

No I got that you little mutant. What are you doing?

Voice over. All the great stories have a gritty voice over to them.

Wait are you recording me with that thing?

Smile for the camera doll face~

[Her lips purse to a sharp frown and she storms over while he tries to fly backwards while still filming]

With fire in her eyes the chill from her stare is melted away leaving hissing steam on my skin. I can see her knuckles somehow turning even whiter then they already were as she tries to judge if it would be easier to slap me into silence or-

[He doesn't get to finish that thought because she swings her foot up with surprising speed and the video cuts out]

Oh is THAT the story he told you? A hero?

Well if that's what he wants you to believe, it's not like I can prove him wrong. But I can say this much. He doesn't know me nearly as well as he might think.

[chemistryinmotion]

There's no reason for me not to believe it. He did mention something about a nasty future he's trying to avoid, but unless he does something to prove to me he's a bad person, I have no reason not to trust him.

[badluckbabe]

[Sigh]

Yeah that sounds like something you'd say.

Well so long as he stays out of my way I'll be happy.

I doubt that.

Stuff it hamster.

[chemistryinmotion]

So... how well do you know me in your universe?

[ aka he just wants to make sure they're not, like, a ~thing~ bc, yeah, he has a girlfriend already. ]

[badluckbabe]

I caught you and sold you off to the most powerful criminal organizations in the world.

YOU WHAT!?

[chemistryinmotion]

[ yeah wally's gonna second that bc seriously THAT WAS NOT WHAT HE WAS EXPECTING ]

You sold me to a criminal organization? What the hell?

[badluckbabe]

You were my shot at the big time and I took it.

No hard feelings, just business~

...OK Now I want to change partners.

Too late, you said it yourself. You're stuck with me.

[chemistryinmotion]

The "big time" being what, exactly? Ruling the criminal underworld?

Pretty sure it's impossible not to have hard feelings over that.

[badluckbabe]

We all have our dreams.

Besides it's not like it was you. It was another person. For all you know the you in that world could have had it coming. Are you gonna get that irritated over someone you never met?

...scratch that. Of course you are because you're all goodie good like that.

[chemistryinmotion]

You got that right. I don't care if it was alternate universe me, it was still me. Technically. And I know me. And I know no one like me deserves to be sold to a criminal organization. Hell, not even you do. No one does.

No dream is worth a load of dirty laundry.

[badluckbabe]

Well what's happened happened. Nothing to change it now, especially not from here.

[chemistryinmotion]

You could at least apologize, unless you don't regret selling me to a criminal organization.

[badluckbabe]

And I would do that...why?

Lady...you've got issues!

Tell me something I don't know.

[chemistryinmotion]

I dunno, because maybe you're actually a good person who just ended up with the wrong crowd and it's just common courtesy to apologize for things like selling people to criminals?

[badluckbabe]

Really? You can tell all that from just this one meeting?

Oh that's right you can't, because you don't know.

[chemistryinmotion]

Fine, be that way.

[badluckbabe]

Don't go away mad lover boy, just go away~

[chemistryinmotion]

Don't gotta tell me twice.
