[FIGHT CLUB]　/　it's not the sort of place he'd expect a girl to be. but then. . . it wasn't as though firefly was any ordinary girl. the role she'd played back in penacony——burning bright, burning out fast——hadn't intersected with his much, but just like every other part to play in that montage, she'd been invaluable. the stowaway, the one who'd had the most to gain from a beautiful dream ; whatever name she took, however many times she'd met " death ", she was still here anyway.

after himself, one could say she'd been the closest thing to a lucky charm the astral express had met at the time.

from one death-defier to another, then ; bounties existed for a reason, but it wasn't always for fulfilling. jade had been thinking something when she'd let her go, otherwise he had little doubt they'd be in very different circumstances today.

"anyone catch your eye?"

forearms lean, leisurely, on the rusted bar of the spectator stands, and he glances sidelong to the girl with a smile as he jingles a mostly-finished glass of whiskey in one hand, now more ice than the dark alcohol ringing the base. not far away, the sounds of a match ongoing drowns out most of the rest of the place: punches thrown, bodies colliding, grunts and groans of dismay and exhilaration, loss and success. he gestures at them, and the eager men and women surrounding them, gripping wallets, with his chin. "you don't seem like the betting type. but if you were——who would you put your chips on, you think?"

a familiar voice from her side , one she didn't even need to turn to recognize , even if the two hadn't properly met , she could recognize the man at her side with relative ease , talk of betting , when she finally did peek a glance -- those eyes , how many people have spoken praise on them , she wondered ? she could tell why , they were . . . certainly unique , a trait one couldn't forget after meeting eyes for the first time .

in response to his question , her eyes drifted down at the fighters , how did she even end up here ? rumors , of course , they piqued her interest and she decided to watch a few fights , see how people in an underground fighting ring would duke it out . . . nothing as grand as some of the battles she herself has had , but still enjoyable to watch .

eyes followed the fighters closely , there was one fighter with the clear advantage on the left , on the right , running out of energy , struggling to dodge attacks , yet still standing . " the underdog . " attention turned towards the one taking the blows , being on the back foot -- picking up his pace and dodging a few more blows before . . .

delivering an uppercut right to the jaw , turning the match around in an instant , seems luck was on her side this time . . . small things like that are usually decided by the script , if they have any meaning . . . it always felt nice to trust her own intuition for once .

truthfully , she was painfully curious as to who aventurine had placed his money on , but . . . " if i was putting actual money . . . i'd probably have better luck matching whoever you bet on . "

she can bet it was the winner .

[WINDOW SHOPPING]

Exposed hands offered the savory meal over to her. "I haven't had something like this before," he said looking back at his own as they made their way down the street. A single bite was taken and he hummed softly before looking to her reaction to it. They should get something else, he is aware. Both for themselves and their other Stellaron Hunters...but he was hardly qualified to choose such things.

Firefly was fairly silent most of the time they were walking , fidgeting with her hands , eyes locked onto all of the different , vastly expensive outfits in the stores , not something she herself would be super interested in . . . but something Kafka might like , part of her wondered if she could afford something nice for her .

eyes quickly looked to the meal held out to Firefly , eyes almost instantly lighting up , looking quickly to Blade , almost for approval , before back down at the meal in front of her , taking it carefully , taking a bite of her own .

ah , that look on her face . . . there was pure joy there , smiling , eyes locked back onto Blade , a soft laugh . . . it was always nice when he did nice things , even if small . . . they always meant a lot .

" it's really , really good . . . thank you , Blade . "

[ ＴＨＥ ＥＭＰＹＲＥＡ . ] [SPARKLING WATER]

The man in shining white clothes hogs space at the front lobby of the hotel, his head stuck in a tilt as he holds his phone up to his ear via his shoulder and he handles a briefcase of stuff upon an empty table. He is busy on his cellphone at one second and looking away, a form of disinterest appears on his face as the call and shuffling continues, before he clicks the case shut and he realizes he is not alone.

His ear does not leave his call and his mouth does not move to acknowledge the grey-haired girl he had interrupted with his quick-time shuffling, but his eyes spoke volumes. While an apology could not be discerned from the look he gives, his face does soften in recognition of something as he reaches into his bag to pull out something with a cylinder shape.

With a blue and silver design and a freshness seal upon the top unopened, it could easily be discerned he was offering a beverage. If she takes it, it's simply sparkling water with an unflavored label upon the bottom. If not, he will simply put it away in his bag again.

Pulling the phone just far enough from his ear, he gives a quick explanation barely audible to her and not who he was on call with. "You seem flushed, this is all I have on me at the moment, ma'am."

although enjoyable, being outside of SAM took a toll on her sooner or later , not as drastic as it usually would be , but she couldn't explain why , it was nice not having all attention be on the stellaron hunter , but instead . . . just getting to enjoy some time as Firefly , even if the moments were brief .

clearly she hadn't been worrying for herself as much as she should , she barely even took notice to said interruption , seeming to space out a bit , though her eyes landed on him as he looked towards her , it was almost as if he was looking straight through her , her eyes locked with him , but followed when his hand moved into his bag , that cold and almost on guard expression faded to a surprised one . . . then to a smile .

" ah -- I appreciate it . . . thank you . "

was all she spoke before opening it to take a sip , it wasn't until then that she'd realized just how much she needed it . . . a clear look of relief washing over her .

firefly @ revelation .

as she won't be participating in lore , her main focus will be doing event interactions and gaining some new threads , as she's very new , i haven't gotten a chance to , so if you would like to do something with Firefly , event or otherwise , feel free to pop me a message , otherwise i'll send out some asks as i see an opportunity to !

she'll be in various different places , simply because i said so , she'll be outside of SAM for this visit , wearing the outfit she wore in the midsummer firefly time event , image below .

[deathstaroverload]

heavy steps among the grass , approaching the same cliff they'd heard the woman who'd watched over this place had to leave for some time , with the script not dictating her actions for a period of time , she had a moment between to indulge , to take a chance to watch and wait , unknowing if anyone else would be present .

not even a minute after she felled the last enemy , SAM approached , heavy steps even heard against the grass , once she turned -- a towering , mechanical being , eyeing down Mauvika and the weapon she brought out with quick speed , being as SAM had no chance to lay eyes upon the enemy , he had fair reason to assume it was the one before him was hostile .

almost instantly going into a battle stance , flames bursting out from his chest in an X shape , clearly also ready to fight back , if the first swing was taken .

" hostility in an instant , is your goal to disturb the peace of this place ? " considering the possibility that this was a misunderstanding , he'd refrain from flying in to strike without second thought , imagining the devastation a battle between the two could cause here , even considering only his own fire power , very unaware of the strength of the claymore wielder across from him .

wanted plots : abundance !

i'm trying to get things going proper on firefly , so i'm very open to doing a bunch of these with her ! as always , the best way to reach me is on discord @/pactbound. or in tumblr messages , but i may not notice as quickly !

Storm Watcher ( TEYVAT MUSE NEEDED . ) taken by Mauvika .

rolling up to watch the view with some giant mech suit ? sounds like a fun time ! firefly has much to think about , so you could definitely catch a deep conversation with her .

Hanu’s Adventure

likely could end up one of the many adventures she ended up on during her time on penacony , or a visit back because she enjoys being able to exist in her body there , who knows ? she could probably find some fun in the brother hanu adventuring

Seclusion Zone ( COMBAT . ) taken by Acheron .

she's gonna beat the fuck out of these things and it's not even funny , she's done it once before , she will do it again , just try not to let her know who created it , or she may want a word or two , why would they recruit a stellaron hunter to try and deal with this problem ? they didn't ! she found out herself through the grape vine more then likely and just kind of invaded .
