And I've wondered who's the woman for whom we all kill...
[[OOC: Party thread of awesome, guys! This operates on the same scale as all of our party threads in the past. For those of you don't remember or weren't here. See the following threads. Those of you who have archangels waiting in the wings can fill free to tag in and chat amongst your fellows. Those of you have kids already in the basement can ( Read more... )
"God there had better be alcohol," she drawls, rolling her eyes. "Dontcha think, Steve?" she asks her seatmate from the van, and if she had gum she would have popped it at that point.
Good lord she's annoying. A sweetheart when it comes down to it, a terrified kid, but... annoying.

"Alcohol," he repeats as if he was making sure he heard that right. "And here I was thinking you were more of a fruit punch kind of girl."
Teasing, really, although gently and not as extreme as he can be. Being stuck in that damn minivan sobered him up some, because there's only so much eccentricity one can handle in close quarters... Also he's afraid of Mitsuki. She hits hard.

Don't ask why she's clung onto him. There's something about his intensity- the way he doesn't really seem to all be there- that makes her like him.
"Granted," she continues, "I do like those little umbrellas they put in the kind of fruity drinks? Those things are fun when you spin them- the pattern goes 'whoo'!" Yes, whoo. Oh Kiki.

Pssh. He's known her for less than a week or just a little more than a week (it's hard to tell on those long flights halfway across the world), so he only barely knows her, but Steve likes to think he has a certain way with people that allows him to really get to know them in short periods of time... Or something.
"I love those things!" He replies gleefully. "I wonder if they have those here. I mean in the hotel part. They have a bar, right? They gotta have a bar- it would be criminal if they didn't. We should totally get one after the, uh... Whatchamadooji." He snaps his fingers, trying to remember that cool lingo Vince and Mitsuki were using before. "The briefing! Oooh. I wonder if we'll get to meet Romana. I hear she's so cool, if not totally terrifying."
And the eccentric side emerges. Apparently, the concept of fruity drinks perks him right up.

"Oh, yeah, the briefing..." she pauses. She's not really thrilled with the idea of the briefing, 'cause... meetings, blah. But at the mention of Romana, she perks up. "Oh my god, yeah. Romana. I heard she kicks so much ass." Yeah, Kiki. Let's pretend you're not that much of a Romana fangirl.

Steve makes a face at her pausing, because he's not too big on the concept of meetings either. It's not really an archangel thing, but sometimes it's necessary- even moreso when you're dealing with hardcore serious archangels. "God, all the other archangels here are so serious," he adds, lowering his voice a little. "I bet we stick out like sore thumbs with signs pointing to them saying, 'I'm a sore thumb.'"
Says the man in the purple suit. And the peacock wings if ever thought to bring them out.

"Oh my god I know," she whispers. "I mean... look at them. They're so..." Words fail Kiki, but she gets her point across. "I mean... I totally don't know why we're here or what we're doing." She blushes a little. "They all seem like they know everything and they probably do. We do stick out." She winces a little, because she already knows they think they have the bottom of the barrel, and well... they're right.
We won't even bring up Kiki's kiwi wings. Because they're an embarrassment.
