[Dude. For real?

She stares blankly at the thing, and then looks back at him. And then snorts a laugh.

Seriously, man?]

[theboogieman]

[he shrugs a little. seriously. he doesn't go around just holding other people's things.]

[wordmiser]

[...okay. Whatever.

The lock on the door pops open after a discreet moment of picking it, and she scoops up the thing.

Come on man.]</small.

[theboogieman]

[...where are they going. this was supposed to be his job. why is she crowding in on his life. all of these questions AND MORE will continue to go unanswered, because he can't quite be bothered to dignify them with actual verbalization.

so he... follows behind her. at a distance.]

...Matched pair they are.

[wordmiser]

[Well, she'd gotten them in. Now she has no idea what they're supposed to do. She was the transportation here, man. Do your part.

She stares at him, waiting for said part, a lollipop inserted in her mouth.

She'd nicked a few from various stands while exploring earlier that day.]

two peas in a pod...

[theboogieman]

[he breathes out, through his nose. a little bit like an irritable bull.

but fine, he moves ahead of her. he puts emphasis into moving silently, creeping down the hallway, keeping close to the wall, listening for sounds... there's a contact here that doesn't want to be found out. sounds like the job is changing, though, if this person is here.]

[wordmiser]

[She saunters along behind him, really not even remotely trying to hide herself as much as he is. Despite that, she makes nary a whisper of sound - it was a minor use of her ability, quieting the whispers of clothes and footsteps by triggering her phasing skills to a minor degree. Her entire presence was just slightly... less solid.

Until she made a little clink of her lolli against her teeth. that was probably an accident. You had to be solid to taste things, after all.]

[theboogieman]

[he. doesn't say anything. she isn't pinging as a vampire, at least. it's not the time.

he actually leads them through a side-door. it looked like a storage closet, but it cuts through a part of wherever this is that wouldn't have been obvious. thankfully, no one bothers them.

at a particular doorway, he stops, and... gestures politely for her to enter.

ladies first.]

[wordmiser]

[She doesn't trust that, and sticks the lolli in her mouth to free up her hands.

A careful check of the door to see if it's locked (it's not), and she slips inside, sliding immediately to the side of the door.

It's a little dark, and there only seems to be one person in there waiting for... something. Why did these things always have to try and be so creepy? It was just so... cliche.]

[theboogieman]

[Zhas slips in behind her. and, being the gentleman that he is, tries to push her further into the room. a shove square in the back.]

[wordmiser]

[When she feels the pressure at her back, Jinx automatically starts to phase. When she sees his hand come through her chest she's mighty glad she didn't let him push her.

That could have forced her into the middle of the room.

She takes a couple steps to the side and glares at him, hair whipping around her with how forcefully she turned.

Asshat.]

[theboogieman]

[well, thaaaaat was an unsettling experience.

he recoils his hands. getting defensive. reaching for a weapon.

but he steps to the side, into the room, since this is his contact anyway. the guy looks up, startled (and a little alarmed to see someone with his face painted like a skull), but this was arranged. he speaks to him nervously. Zhas does a good job of masking his frustration and pretending this was where he was going all along.]

[wordmiser]

[She sneers at him. Don't put your hands places if you're not ready for the consequence of it.

She slinks after Zhas, more on guard with him than before, candy abandoned and gaze fixed on his back.

Doing jobs with people she couldn't trust. How amateur.]

[theboogieman]

[well maybe you shouldn't go handing your Things to random strangers.

that said, Zhas continues to say nothing as the man details a plan--exchange X for Y and bring Y back to them. Zhas steps aside instead, gesturing to Jinx, much to everyone's (?) confusion. he points between them.

give this guy the Thing. he needs The Thing.]

[wordmiser]

[She gives him a Look.

This, after he dropped the Thing? Ugh.

She tosses the Thing to the Man, underhand. It's not her problem if he fumbles and almost drops the thing in surprise. It's not like the Thing hasn't been dropped before.

She shoots Zhas another glare.]

[theboogieman]

[well congrat-u-fucking-lations, they did the thing. his glare somehow manages to carry all of the spite and sarcasm that would have otherwise come with some words.

...the poor man looks awkwardly between the both of them, tells Zhas that his payment will be waiting at a certain terminal, and then continues to stare at the both of them. glaring at each other. like adults.]

[wordmiser]

[After an extended glare session, Jinx sticks her tongue out at Zhas. Because she's and adult.

And then she flips her hair, and saunters away from him. Through the door. Cuz bite her.]
