Hey, Soul Sister [Open]

[kinshou_kitsune]

There was always this nostalgic feeling about Japan that the mutant sometimes liked. Right now currently wasn't one of those moments. It was exciting knowing that the team was going to be leaving Russia and moving to Japan. Of course it hadn't been one of those things it seemed everyone in the lower ranks knew about until the last minute, but it

Getting to know her surroundings, the base and feeling out the people she didn't know, Ophelia wound up in the mess, grabbing a bite to eat to keep herself from falling flat and sleeping wherever she fell. It wouldn't do her too much good to conk out right now.

There was too much to do, too much to do and too much...

Planting herself in a seat, Ophelia openly stared at the young woman across the table, utterly invading her private feelings. She did it without care; emotions weren't like thoughts, it wasn't like she had anything tangible to grasp to. Emotions were so fleeting.

"Cock-a-doo, why so blue?" It might seem odd at times, but Ophelia's somewhat harmonic voice seemed to fit fine with her melodic rhymes.

The feeling of eyes upon her caused Alyssa to glance up straight to the young woman who was speaking to her. Riddles? That was new and totally unexpected. Quietly Lyssa raised a brow studying the odd girl with a sharp blue-green gaze. A small little smile did slip across her features as she looked back to the half melted bowl of perfectly good ice cream. Alyssa didn't know the woman or her abilities, she just assumed that she picked it up from her slouched shoulders and rather broody demeanor.

"Eh... just thinking. A dangerous past time for some people like us. Myself included I guess." Stirring the bowl of vanilla scooped goodness the mutant finally took at least a small bite to eat trying to force a cheery smile. "To much of a long flight to leave open ended questions 's all."

[mad_asahatter]

She could understand that, the long flight. Ophelia's trip to Japan had spanned over four continents and lasted nearly half a week. Tiredness though, she really did care too much for it. She'd feel it when she felt it, and even then it wouldn't be hers. No, someone else would make her drop from sheer exhaustion.

"Don't try too hard, they come in time. Answers without questions aren't worth a dime." Ophelia naturally could tell that the smile, although seeming bright and cheery, was forced.

The curse of an empath. It made it hard to lie too about the state of things. "Need some help to find it out? It's terrible to see any girl pout."

Quietly Lyssa took the woman's question in. She doubted she'd know much about the subjects she was thinking on, or rather she doubted she was ready to tell anyone about it just yet. It was her own personal little quest that could end her up in a ditch somewhere for digging things up to much to fast. Or breaking in to places looking for it as well. Alyssa quietly decided that wasn't the card she was going to be playing at that current moment. "It's nothing much. Just the whole general life plan. Forgot it was my birthday a couple of days ago so... it's sort of one of those sorts of feelings you know?"

Vague but close enough to be a little white lie. For now it would do or so she hoped and thought it would. With a smile she offered Ophelia her right hand in greeting. "I'm Alyssa. Don't think I remember seeing you around the camp back in the Icebox."

Ty had learned to pick up on the non-verbal cues a person made. In this way, he was glad of his darkness. Faces and voices lied, actions never did. The sound of a person's breathing, the rustle of their clothing, the tap of a toe or finger all spoke volumes to him. The tap of the spoon on the bottom of Alyssa's melting ice cream bowl and her irritable sigh told him much more than a glance at her face ever could have.

Sliding into a nearby seat and hooking his cane on the back of it, Ty laced his fingers together, head tilted as he assessed the girl's situation. Perhaps it might have been more prudent to remain silent, but just because he could, didn't necessarily mean he would. "Penny for your thoughts?"

Blue-green eyes glanced up at the man as he took a seat. He was another one of those faces she hadn't seen often around their camp back in Russia- of course most of the ones of the plane ride there had been like that. Most of her time had been spent around Wade or doing her own thing while trying to stay warm. Now that the weather was more to their liking in Japan it seemed everyone was coming out of the woodwork.

Which lead her to giving a sheepish smile and trying to lie. "Just thinking is all. To many questions and not enough answer sort of thing." She shifted in the chair a little, finally taking a bite of the half melted ice cream.

Ty's fixed and unblinking bluish-gray gaze met Alyssa's. As she moved around in her chair, he could hear the lie in her voice. But he also wasn't about to call her out on it either. After all, everyone needed a few secrets in their life.

He settled his tall frame back into the chair, arms crossed as he answered her. "A vague yet unrevealing answer. Very enlightening." There might have been more than just a hint of amusement in his tone.

Alyssa opened her mouth to speak, finding herself making more of a noise of 'eh' before the giggles started to set in. It was mostly due to the response from her own previous answer as well as that hint of amusement that was in his tone. She dropped her head, a furious blush popping up on her cheeks for any passers by to see. "I... yeah. Sorry. Just thinking about being back close to my old stomping grounds and things like that. Nothing major or to highly important
