NIGHT gives cover to the city that never sleeps; darkness hides all the dealings of the underground, hidden away from everyday civilian eyes. This particular night has not gone well for Nikita. Her latest client was a no-show, and after waiting several hours, she finally decided to leave, to return her wares to the storage locker ten blocks away, carried precariously in the small foldable grocery bag cart pulled along behind.
Yet, in the dark, a disturbance catches her eye. Normally, she'd ignore it. Keep going. No one else matters in this city but herself, and doing anything not in the plan means adding even more risk.
But the movement in the alley catches her attention; and the glow - faint and flickering orange - draws Nikita in.
She has half a mind to pull out the unsold handgun from her bag just in case, but her curiosity wins out, wondering if perhaps the figure at first is an animal in the shadows or a person but as she steps closer, they speak - and it makes her jump at first, a few steps back and a cuss in Russian under her breath.
Blue eyes narrow, adjusting to the low light as she tries to asses what exactly he's wearing, and what exactly is wrong. "What is wrong?" The accent comes out just as thick as the words feel on her tongue; every other part of her wants to leave, to step back out to the street and keep going, but curiosity wins out.
>> WARNING. WARNING!
ㅤㅤ>> PRESENCE APPROACHING. RUN DIAL - UP...
the sudden warning in the display of his helmet catches KISMET off - guard. he knows for sure that he has a concussion, but that's the lesser of two issues considering the blood on his side, wetting his hand. still, KISMET had slipped into this alleyway and let the city fold around him to protect him. for someone else in his space means that the city trusts them to help rather than being a danger to him.
>> ATTEMPT TO: stan///d?. he stands. it's not the most graceful of things, considering that he feels the world tilt a bit dangerously, and he reaches out to a wall that's supposed to be there, but - ah. right. new york city decided to change where he was.
still, KISMET fixes his gaze on the newcomer. the orange lights on his shoulder and across his chest plates try to stay on-- blink blink blink flicker flicker flicker blink blink blink. despite the fact that his face is covered, he attempts to smile. " i'm going to hope that you're willing to help me out here. "

Shortly after arriving in New York, Nikita had very little money to her name, and shared a room in an apartment with several other illegal immigrants who came over from Russia to the US. At the time, once she got settled in with the waitressing job at a local '50's style diner, she picked up her small-time arms dealing, acquiring illegal, unregistered handguns that she stored in a rented storage locker across the borough. In Brooklyn, everything for Nikita starting out is within walking distance, and most times, she'd work her shift at the diner until 9pm, and then would go change out of her uniform to go pick up what her client has ordered, in order to meet them somewhere discreet.
For the first few years, Nikita walked everywhere, cutting into the night and often wouldn't be home until 4 or 5am. After saving up, she was able to purchase a 1983 Buick Regal - rusted, beat up, but affordable - it was a game changer for her to be able to deal out of her trunk. She got lucky with parking at her apartment building after cutting a deal with her landlord to get him a piece for free in exchange.
It's only after about a decade in the US that Nikita manages to get a half decent car to replace the Buick (which is essentially a death trap on wheels). She has no car insurance and no actual NY driver's license (it's a fake), but driving an '85 Iroc Camaro becomes her daily driver.
Still, she has some old habits and she'll still do her walking at late hours during the summer.

Contacts across the city make for lucrative opportunities; one satisfied client leads to another and by word of mouth, the chances for the big deals have finally made their way into Nikita's hands. The last couple months of meeting like this have proven beneficial for all parties involved - and with the money she's made, she'd be a fool to fuck this one up.
Leant back against the cool steel, calloused fingers flick away cigarette ashes into the night breeze coming into the hangar. She probably shouldn't, but it's a nervous habit. Instead, one leg lifts to rest ankle atop her knee and she puts out the cig on the heel, shoving the remainder into her pocket to continue later.
Meeting Nico halfway, Nikita crosses the space, arms folded across her chest; her leather jacket fits well, but it doesn't break the wind. "No, not long at all," She offers a shrug - she'd gotten in the habit of getting here early enough; being late would make a bad impression, in her mind. "You happy with the last purchase, yes? I have what you need," Her head gestures towards the trunk of her car - an old beater, but it gets the job done. Better than walking across boroughs, better than hauling a grocery bag on wheels. Blue eyes glance to Nico, the area around and behind him. "And then some, if you like."
plotted starter with @afraidofchange
Bloodshed a lucrative business, artillery made itself essential on both sides; the one that aimed to conquer with the beat of violence, and the extreme that claimed it to defend against such wrath. To navigate through the turbid water of espionage environment, Nexus needed both.
Just operatives in this battle, Nicolas and Nikita naturally gravitated to each other. Their discretion a silent alliance of trust, no conflict has followed their first deal, leading him to seek her more times when needed. Now, her figure leaning against her car can be seen through the tinted bulletproof glass of his entering the aircraft hangar.
Parked, his words echo before the tud of the car's door can be heard. “ i hope i didn't make you wait for long. you know the routine, i was checking the area. ”
