Application for Faye Valentine / Cowboy Bebop

[sexyamnesiac]

“Wha... ”

There was a glare in the young woman’s eye as she turned on her heel, hand instinctively shooting up to block it out so her eyes adjusted to the scene. Once they did, it was nothing but instant disorientation as she clearly remembered being on Mars not too long ago.

“Hey, wait a minute! Now just where the Hell am I?! ..Spike? Jet?….

Faye. Fucking. Valentine? No way.

Setsuna was stunned. He hadn't been as interested in Cowboy Bebop as he had been Rurouni Kenshin, but he knew of it, had seen pretty much the entire series, and read a bit of the manga. At least, enough to be curious and eager to meet her.

Besides, she was a babe in drawings; Setsuna wanted to see if that held and.... He smirked when he arrived on the scene, hoping Kira would show up. If Kira didn't show up, Setsuna would hunt him down and drag him out there, or something -- he'd thinking of something.

When he got there, he waved to Faye and said, "Hi. Sorry, they won't answer you much. But uh...welcome to the most disturbing warped Disneyland ever thought of. And, to make it all so much more wonderful," he put enough sarcasm into his voice to make the word wonderful sound obscene and revolting, "you're trapped.

"I'm Mudou Setsuna. Call me Setsuna."

Faye swurved around to meet glances with the guy, her mind spinning as the confusion started to take it's hold on her. She looked him up and down, and although he seemed decent enough of a person, she still couldn't help feeling quite suspicious of everything. "Trapped? In this place?" Her face, once again, shaped into something expressive -- except this time it read she was apparently not gonna buy it. Although she really just wasn't ready to buy it. "You're just pulling my leg.. where am I really?"

Then with a sigh, her stiff composure started to grow limp and she said, "Setsuna, hmm? Nice to meet you." Then came another pause as she eyed him now. "You wouldn't happen to know someone named Spike, would you? Big, tall guy... fluffy hair?"

[swordandchalice]

"Disneyland, really," Setsuna repeated, almost a little sympathetically this time around. "Once they let you in, you'll see. It's Disneyland. And I'm not kidding.... Turn around." He pointed out of the gate into the obvious abyss, the frightful nothingness and told her, "If you try to go out that way, you'll get dizzy and just collapse out there."

When she asked about Spike, it took all of Setsuna's self control to purse his lips together and not blab out something stupid like, "I haven't seen him in at least three years." When he felt he could trust his vocal chords, he shook his head and told her, "No, sorry. No one like that here." But now that Faye showed up...well, it could happen.

[sexyamnesiac]

"..." Either he was a good actor, or he really wasn't kidding. It was so hard to decipher.

Faye had, indeed, glimpsed back to see the frightful nothingness when it was pointed out, feeling her heart thump as the open space greeted her with an eerie feeling. She looked back once it started to feel rather overwhelming, gulping back a whimper. "I see.."

Standing there, she drew in a breath and then exhaled -- doing her best to remain level-headed. Everything is all right. It's not like she hadn't been anywhere out of the ordinary before. She grew accustomed to a drastic change before, what was there to be so concerned about having now arrived at an improvised version of the real Disneyland? "Heh, right. Thanks, anyway... Setsuna, was it?"

[swordandchalice]

"Yep, Setsuna," he responded, slightly glad she had remembered. Setsuna couldn't tell if Faye fully believed him or not, but that wasn't the terribly important part.

"So...hope you don't mind theme parks. There's not a whole lot to do beyond go on rides and find a way out. At least everything's free. What do you like to do for fun?" What an unnecessary question that had been, but he had to keep up that act, at least for now.

[sexyamnesiac]

Whether she liked it or not, the impression she was getting that this whole deal really wasn't a joke had started to sink in for real now. Now she was just feeling rather disimpassioned about it.

"Theme park? Eh, I've never really been to one befo--.." Wait, did he just say what she thought he just said? Her face dropped and just to be sure she asked, "Free?" Okay, so maybe it wasn't so bad.

Faye ran a hand through her hair as she sighed off the heavy feeling, peering out at nothing, "For fun?" She looked back at him, thinking that 'stealing' really wouldn't have come off the way she'd want. So instead she went with, "Gamble. Nothing like using your luck at a game of poker, you know?" Or not. He looked rather young the more she stared at him. "How old are you, by the way?"

[swordandchalice]

He hadn't known what to say to anyone that hadn't been to a theme park before, sans try some of the rides when you're drunk, but Faye had changed gears anyhow.

"Yeah, free. You can just get whatever you want from the shops and food places. Which comes in handy, because how are you supposed to pay for things without money? And how can you keep money on you for a year if you're spending it all on food and have no way of getting more? It's a bit convenient."

Setsuna knew a bit of gambling, but since he sucked at luck and chance, he tended to stray from those. All the same he told her, "Yeah, kinda. We had a game of strip poker here sometime back." When she asked his age, though, Setsuna noticed the word young, and finally, he blushed a little, feeling embarrassed as he squeaked out, "Sixteen. I'm not that young."

[sexyamnesiac]

The look on Faye's face could've been labeled as priceless as a grin started to spread across her face. She glanced over at the gates and thought she must've ended up in heaven. Free food, free drinks, free.. just about everything! Ha! Spike and them certainly were missing out, that was for sure. Now she didn't feel so bad. "You are you indeed right about that." No debt!

The whole point Faye had asked for his age was just to get an idea. When he told her he was sixteen, she simply smirked at him, finding his slightly flustered face a little adorable. "Strip poker, hmm~? Don't you think you're a little too young for that?" However, she gave him a small smile as she tucked her hands into her pockets, "Well, you are pretty cute for a sixteen year old boy, so I guess it's all right."

[swordandchalice]

Free drinks...well.... Some where free. Setsuna was dying to explain about that, and before he could think about it, the words slipped from his mouth. "Yeah, things are free. But uhh...all the liquor is being held by one person. Except for this nasty tasting stuff called moonshine. It's hard going down, and mixing it with fruit juice does nothing for the fruit juice. But you get drunk real fast. I know the guy you can get it from, too."

Only after did he realize he hadn't just let his mouth run away with him, but he'd been rambling as well.

At being asked if he was too young for strip poker, Setsuna's blush got a bit worse as he protested, "I've been playing it since I was thirteen. Can't be all that too young." And then his mind and mouth shut down a bit when she said he was cute. On one hand, Setsuna didn't like being called cute. On the other hand...Faye Valentine thought he was cute

[sexyamnesiac]

"Is that so?" Faye questioned as she rested her hands on her hips now, pondering. She didn't drink much, but she'd have to admit that some alcohol every once and a while would be nice. Especially if it meant she was.. trapped.. in this place. "Who's the guy?"

Her eyes seemed to glisten in that playful way as she could only find this guy nothing but amusing. Although, he kind of impressed her with his statement. "Thirteen? I haven't played many games of strip poker, but I've had my experience. Fun game, I must say." She winked.

She started to assume that the more she messed with him, the more humorous he'd be. However, at his comment towards her appearance all she could do was say, "Well, how can I not call you cute when that was pretty cute of you to say? Hmmm~?" Smirking still, she reached over and ruffled the boy's hair.

[swordandchalice]

"S'name's Crowley," Setsuna informed her, casually. "If he doesn't show up here, what you do is right a letter when you get in. All you have to do is write the name of the person you want the letter to get to, and it'll go to them directly." Another eerie convenience. And Setsuna was starting to wonder when he became the place's informant. Oh well. Someone had to do it, and he was gonna be the one that did it for Faye~! ♥

The wink didn't help Setsuna's painfully dark blush, and there was little he could do to hide it, so he just looked down. "Well, yeah. Fun. I prefer pool.... Since I just lose at poker, no matter what I do."

Having his hair ruffled just made him feel like he was a kid, or he'd met the female version of his Senpai. He wasn't sure which, yet. "Cute? Cute? My girlfriend wouldn't think it cute. She'd probably kick my ass. All I was doing was being honest, though. It ain't my fault if she's scrawny." Granted, he didn't care how skinny Sara was, she was still attractive, in his eyes. But...he did like curves.

[sexyamnesiac]

"Crowley? I'll be sure to keep that in mind." Indeed she would, seeing as he had the connections to get the alcohol. The process in which it took for the letter to get there really hadn't phased here, considering where she had come from. She assumed the place was just highly advanced with technology.

Now that she had managed to fluster the kid enough, Faye gave a small laugh and smiled at him. "Pool looks fun. I've never played it myself, though. But if you ever need any tips on playing poker -- you know who to come to."

Of course, when Setsuna mentioned his girlfriend, she couldn't help herself. "Girlfriend, huh?" Now Faye was back to smirking at him as she felt ready to tease the poor guy again. Bending down just enough so her cleavage was in perfect view, she slipped a finger beneath Setsuna's chin and pushed his head up so he was looking at her, "We'll just keep that between you and I, then. She doesn't need to know." Trying not to laugh, Faye gave another wink.

[swordandchalice]

Sure, there were probably other comments Setsuna could have made, and things he could have informed Faye of, but long before she caught his chin, Setsuna's eyes had captured an eye full of her chest, and he lost his voice a bit.

His cheeks burned, and he had to swallow, half knowing he was being toyed with. And once his voice came back, the one thing that shot out was, "There ain't nothing to keep between us anyway." Because, really, nothing happened. But...he wouldn't deny Sara fury rights if she had witnessed the scene, never.

"And, uhh...I think I've told you everything you need to know. If you have any questions, you know my name and how to find me," Setsuna started rambling off again, thinking it was time to leave. "Don't hestitate to."

[sexyamnesiac]

Of course she was just playing with the kid, but it never pleased her more than to see that her chest could still give way as a distraction.

"You got it, stud." Faye said with a grin as she leaned back up and crossed her arms. The grin then faded into a kind smile as she added on, "And thank you. I really appreciate the information."

[swordandchalice]

Stud? Setsuna snorted at that. "Your charms don't work for lying. I know better than that," he told her. Oh, he was attractive, but really now.... Skinny him a stud? Not happening.

To her thank-you, Setsuna shrugged. "No problem. See ya around." With that, he headed off. Thankfully, he noticed Kira there, or he would have bugged him later. But...seeing Kira also made Setsuna walk a little faster.

[sexyamnesiac]

Faye had to smirk at that. The kid certainly had an attitude, but she could find herself warming up to it. When he said his good-bye, she simply waved, "See ya, Setsuna."
