There is girl in the Nexus with red hair, a yellow hoodie, and a bright smile! Also, her left arm is a giant metal claw. You know, just throwing that one out there. Totally normal.

"Who here likes video games? I like Bomberman. What's your favorite?"

Ophelia notices the claw, but isn't too worried. The girl seems friendly enough. After all, being covered in scales probably makes her a little weirder.

She straightens out her skirt a bit, and smiles. "I don't really get into many video games. I love dance dance revolution, though."

[stopforme]

Unless you come to her house and start wrecking all her stuff, the claw isn't much of a threat.

"Dance Dance Revolution? Ooh, I think Luste plays that. She's really good!" Well, she's not... exceedingly peppy, at least. "So how good are you? And do you want to play a game of Bomberman?"

[islandsplash]

"I play on difficult mode," she says. "It's been a few months since I've played, I might be a little rusty."

Ophelia laughs some. "I guess I could try, but I probably wouldn't be very good. The last game I played that wasn't DDR was Sonic Adventure at a friends house, and I was terrible."

[stopforme]

"Luste plays whenever she gets the chance. I don't know how she's so good, but she's very quick on her feet. It's almost scary!"

Ooh, that's the answer she's been waiting for. "Hooray!" She brandishes her claw and twitches the fingers a little bit, and soon a grey bomb appears. It's unlit, but not for long. "Let's play!"

[islandsplash]

Ophelia could say the same for herself, but she doesn't like to brag. Most of the time. So instead, she just says, "it'd be fun to play with her sometimes if she's that good!"

She's half expecting the girl to drag her off through a portal or something to go play the game, but.. the bomb.. kind of worries her. She pales a bit, and gives a weak laugh. "Oh, er. I though you meant, a video game.. you know.. on the TV, with a controller, on a playstation or something..?"

[stopforme]

"Luste is a bit hard to track down, but if I can find her, I'll let her know~" She gives a thumbs-up.

She tosses the bomb up and down a bit and giggles. "Nope! Real-life Bomberman is so much more fun!" Taking her attention away from the bomb, she looks Ophelia up and down. "You should be okay. You have built-in armor!" And with that, the fuse of the bomb lights.

[islandsplash]

Oh well shit. Scales weren't going to protect her from BOMBS. Okay well, the anti-violence field would keep her safe, right? Then again, she didn't know. This was not someone attacking her it was.. well, a crazy girl throwing a bomb.

This is why Ophelia avoids the Nexus. Too many crazy people.

"It's.. not exactly armor!" She tries to explain, wondering if she should try encasing the bomb in a block of ice. Then again, bombs and shards of ice probably wouldn't mix.

[stopforme]

Zorne has had some bad experiences with ice. It probably wouldn't work to contain the blast, but it would make her back off. Maybe.

"Not armor?" She sounds confused now! "It's not a very good power, is it?" Note that the bomb's fuse is still slowly burning away in her claw.

[islandsplash]

Hey, it's helpful! Just not against BOMBS!

"Well, it's not exactly my power. It was kind of an accident." Details details. Anyways! She decides icing the bomb might not be the best idea; if anything, she can make a wall of ice if she throws the bomb. For now, she just holds up her webbed hand, small orbs of ice forming and spinning around her hand. "I control water and ice."

[stopforme]

Oh, hey, that's kind of cool. Zorne gives her a look of mild fascination. "I know two people like that. You're like both in one!" ...But a realization hits her and she frowns a little, tossing the bomb up and down once more. "Freudia and Trauere don't like playing with me. Oh well." With a small sigh, she throws the bomb in the other direction, leaving the two of them far outside its blast radius.

[islandsplash]

Oh, whew. Bomb gone. She calms down, and the orbs vanish. "I learned ice over time. At first it was just water." She smiles. "Er, we could play something else?" She winces when the bomb goes off in the distance. Jeez, it's loud.

"So uh, what's your name?"

((Off to bed now! D:))

[stopforme]

"But Bomberman's the only one I'm good at," she says, not really whining, but not as chipper as she was, either. The blast doesn't seem to bother her.

"My name is Zorne Sepperin. You can call me Zorne!" And she's back to smiling.
