iFLY adventures

[Skye]

New year, and time for the years first social outing, and her chance to at long last get to experience the one thing she had been desiring to get to do for longer than she cared to admit by now. True it would just be in a limited fashion and far from what she truly wished to get to experience but it was a start at least.

The text of where to meet and when long since sent out, an attire to keep her warm and still work for the evening selected, and of course she was here first, not strange as she had hardly been able to contain herself to finally get to experience this. Besides who knows maybe this would be even more enjoyable than the actual deal, not that she thought so but it was still a chance to feel the wind as if she was falling for an extended period of time.

Leaning against the wall to the iFly, with one earbud in as she listens and softly whispers the words back over and over again, not wanting to waste any time where she could be studying, especially if it was just to stand and wait for the rest of the people to show up. But damn hope the others would start to show up soon, they still had some time before their slot sure but she wanted to head inside now.

[Asclepius]

Rolling into the car park, music audible from the outside of the car as he arrives. His outfit kept casual with a simple jeans and hoodie combo, under the hoodie was a plain coloured shirt. As he made his way towards the entrance, he spied his fellow arrow by the sign. His mind began to think back onto the text she had sent. Should I address her as Skye? Or do I address her with her new name. It would be clear that he was unsure of himself as he arrived to greet his fellow Arrow. “Hiya, I hope you haven't waited too long.” His face moved to a more uncomfortable look. Lets just ask to not cause problems. “I err, couldn't help but notice how you signed your text. Is this how I should address you now or...?” He needed to be certain, our names where our protection and with the current times, we really needed it. “I hope you had a nice Christmas and new year, did you get up to much?” He could not help but notice the attire she wore, certainly a unique style that stood out from his own choice. “That's a cool outfit choice you have there, looks like something out of the underworld films.”

[Skye]

Looking up at her fellow arrow with a warm look upon her.
”Hiya Knight welcome, the others arent here quite yet so look like we have to wait a bit for them to arrive.” Lets hope they come soon though I wanna get inside. ”Not been waiting more than a few minutes so no worries there, I just headed out early since I did not wanna bring my board.” Taking out her earbud and turning off the played material. ”Please do, I know that we tend to use surnames at the office but my full name is Aella Lăcrămioara "Rose" Rosechylde, so please call me Aella or Rose whichever is easier to pronounce, at least when not at the office.” An easy lie to see through but its message should be painfully clear at least.

Turning her head away for a moment at the sudden question, not having expected it as she fights a fire behind her eyes having to speak in a slow controlled manner to not let it leak out.
”Ehh it was fine, went to a lesbian bar so didn΄t have to be alone, yourself?” Actively avoiding to look upon his eyes, clearly not looking to comfortable on the topic. ”Underworld films? I am sorry but I do believe I have missed those, am I some demon from hell or some succubus that is actually good or maybe even a demon hunter of some sort?” Pressing out her imagined claws, true she had dark painted sharp nails but nothing like claws. ”Or maybe some clawed werewolf?”

[Asclepius]

He gave a visible look around where they stood, emphasising that it was just them for the time being. “I figured as much when I saw you standing there talking to yourself or singing I don't know which to be honest. I can tell you are an eager beaver though considering how early you have turned up, are you excited?” Dumb question, he knew the answer. Listening to her announcing her full name he blinks a couple of times before speaking. “That seems quite a mouth full. I am having a hard time picking, maybe I will pick Rose because it feels less personal then Aella. However if you invite me round again to your home, might use the other for the fact it is personal.” It just made sense to him if it didn't to others, personal conversation can come when in secure places.

It was clear he hit a soft spot, the no eye contact gave it away to him, her lack of wanting to show that made it obvious to him, so he would not make a fuss of it. “I...” He wanted to offer some words that might soothe how it went and wanted to give hope but given the reaction, he settled with skipping over it and just answering about his Christmas. Sadness for her written across his face. “I spent my Christmas alone, cooked myself dinner and drowned myself in memories of the past. I put some films on and fell asleep. Bit of a billy no mates i guess.” I wonder if talking about my loneliness might help in some way to her, that at least she could go out and find someone to be with for the night, given what she had however in the past, I doubt it. The look he gave her was one of understanding, well as best he could. “I'm always available to talk should you need it, as I know the feeling is mutual. I don't mind a venting session to let it all out.”Of course he forgot who he was talking to for a moment, why did he expect her to see the film. “It was a cool film when I first watched it when I was young. You outfit just reminds me of the main character 'Selene' and no not some succubus...” giving her a almost worried look. “...what kind of films do you think I watch.... she is a vampire.”

[Skye]

Shaking her head with a soft chuckle before starting to softly speak singing, not wanting to get into singing when she knew he wasn΄t overly fond of it..
”Life's a show. And we all play our parts. And when the music starts. We open up our hearts. It's all right. If some things come out wrong. We'll sing a happy song. And you can sing along.” The chuckling changing to a soft warm laughter as she looks upon the first arrival. ”I'm sorry, I'm sorry, yes I am excited to no avail, its not the real thing but it is still close.” Just blinking at him with a slight surprised look upon her. ”I do not see why it matters if its personal or not, Aella is my first name, and Rose is a nickname from my surname, do use whatever or a nickname though.” It genuinely didn΄t matter to her, not like any of the names were her actual name or like anyone would ever guess it.

Hesitating for a moment before taking a step closer with a slight concern upon her face.
”Are you ok? I can prepare some tea and treats in the near future if you need someone to talk to.” Completely having misunderstood the single spoken word along with the look upon him to be about his own sadness. ”That sounds extremely lonely, I should have thought about reaching out, or maybe arrange something for the company so that no one would have had to be alone, drats, next time, next time.” Not really sure what to make of his expression, it was understanding but it did not feel as if it was right for her own emotions at the moment, nor really befitting of the ones she accredited to him. ”Then an evening of music, for background not singing, some tea and treats to just talk is in our future it seems. Unless you would prefer to talk whilst working up a sweat.” Taking a couple of steps back as she begins to slowly spin around in place but soon building momentum to spin ever so slightly faster and faster. ”A vampire?” Stopping before him with a slight red hue upon her cheeks. ”Now that was unexpected, and who knows what you might enjoy when no one is watching, could be any number of things.”

[Witch]

"I hope I'm not interrupting anything?" Her voice was mostly jest but only mostly ... the rest of it was honest question. And if the answer was yes, well ... that would be fine. Honestly.

Because indoor sky diving. Oof.

When Skye said let's do something, she didn't pull punches.

Her own outfit fell in line with Ascelpius'. Jeans and a natural history museum shirt.

[Asclepius]

He listened to her soft spoken words, no doubt they were a reference to something, maybe a song or such. “Did you make that up or is it something you learned from somewhere?” He was a little unsure of what she had to apologise for. “No need for sorrys, and well I am sure this activity will sate some craving you have for the real thing I am sure.” See she did not get it, and I am not surprised. “Don't worry about it, it's a me thing. I will be sure to use them that makes the most sense for the situation.”

Charles you fool, she is of a similar mind to you. She cares more for others problems then her own, like you do. “I am okay, it is hard to find the words to help but Maybe if you feel it would benefit both of us to sit and eat treats and having a chat to... you know... vent our grievances and frustrations then I am happy to do so.” He gives her a look one can only give someone when you want them to connect the dots, He wanted to offer comforting words but he could not do much when she so clearly did not want to speak on the matter. “Extremely? Might be a little bit much, but well... I guess in some way. It's not like I was sad and crying on the day, I was just keeping up traditions that were lost in this new life. You shouldn't have to do anything... it is not a bad thing to go out and do something for yourself, besides I could have contacted people to chat with. I have few people on that list but still it was an option open to me.” A chuckle to himself at the prospect of more social gathering activities. “I think I have done more of all this socialness in the last six-ish month then I have for years. Also they all sound like lovely ideas, even if it was and evening with music and singing.” Her mood seems to have brightened a little, she is back to her energetic self for a little bit, good sign honestly. “Yes, a vampire, I doubt there are many other creatures that could wear the kind of outfits they styled them in. you know, because they don't need to breath in the film.” A smirk forms on his face as she seems to be blushing at his defensive words. “Hey don't you blush at me.”

A look over as the conversation is cut by the words of Witch. “Not at all, It is nice to see you. I love the shirt! Was it a fun time when you visited there? It is on my bucket list.” He thanked fate for allowing Witch to come in at this moment to change the subject before Rose could make any more questionable comments.

[Skye]

"What?" Placing her hands slightly to the right upon her chest as she slowly steps backwards with a shocked look upon her. "You haven΄t seen Buffy? Not even the musical episode?" True I have only seen a couple of episodes here and there myself, but I am the odd one out. "I do try to not get into singing things around you, I know I am not the best singer, and that you do not really like it." I am getting quite adept at my guitar though, love that thing. "I certainly hope so, and if we do fall so hey its just a couple of feet, barely enough to bruise." Glancing back and forth between the entrance and her fellow arrow, excited to get in, and having to force herself to not laugh from her little pretend shocked sensation earlier.

Slowly, slowly raising her arm up high to place upon his shoulder and seeking eye contact, prepared to pull back in an instant should any sign be showed that he did not want it, besides having her arms up this high for such a simple thing, damn he is tall.
"If you say so, but yes lets do that, remember that you have friends here, you are not alone. And I do not think that I have ever tried such a thing as an adult to be honest so it could be fun, I will even dress appropriately." Not like I can dress the way I want. Nodding toward the look for a brief instance as she speaks on, mostly to let him know she had seen it. "Loneliness and depression starts by isolation of days that we were used to never be alone, when such things grows more common and we no longer react to it, and Ido not intend to allow you to fall into that trap if I can aid to steer it away." No not a chance that she would. "Still I will consider a holiday party next year, wonder if I can borrow some amenities as my place is to small." Merely offering a slight twitch of her lips to the fact that she had done something, happy to let that topic fall to the side. "Happy to have been of aid in that endeavor, and no, no background music to talk to, no singing, that I can do when alone." Grinning a bit as she glances over her outfit. "Well then I know what outfits to look up and get to show that I can handle them to, about that I hope you liked your Christmas gift and the usage for the things I had you draw for me." Turning her head away to not show the slight blush as it fades, certain he wouldn΄t get the reason for it, nor could she speak of it.

Glad for the chance to focus on their new arrival as she spins over toward her with a happy smile.
"You made it, of course you aren΄t we have been waiting for you, and Alice, and that guy whose name I can never recall." Looking over the shirt, back to her fellow arrow and back to Witch. "I guess a museum will be our next outing then, I will make certain to invite you both, and ohh on that matter." Licking her lips and tilting her head ever so slightly. "I know that we work in the same company, but would you mind us not calling you miss all evening? My full name is Aella Lăcrămioara Rosechylde, please call me Aella or Rose or a nickname of your own choice. I call my friend here Knight, just haven΄t managed to get him in a shining armor yet."

[Witch]

"Always," she chimed easily in response to Asclepius , "but I'm not hard to please when it comes to natural history museums."

Turning to Skye she gave a small shrug, "How can one pass up on pretending to fall out of the atmosphere?" Her tone poking fun at the very concept. Blinking it took her a second before she laughed, "Oh please don't. Miss is ... ugh," she wrinkled her nose and shook her head. "No- Morgan is fine." Nodding she noted the new names offered and then raised an eyebrow toward Asclepius, echoing faintly "Knight?"

[Asclepius]

“Nope, can't say I have ever watched it. I know of its existence but I never sat down and watched it. My sister however said she could relate a lot to the show.“ Given the life I knows now, maybe I should sit down and watch it now. He shrugged, nothing more he could add about it. A slight frown formed on his face. “I think I may have over sold my distaste about singing, you do not need to hold yourself back.” A laugh at her statement about not getting bruised from a small fall. “Do not underestimate my ability to get hurt. Do I need to remind you of the trampoline park?” He did spook her with his fall after all.

He watched her seem to offer him comfort, but the main focus of his mind following a different thought. I am not the one bottling up my rage about something. “I promise, I was just following some old life traditions that were started before I... moved overseas. I feel much less alone here, and I have everyone to thank for that. Appropriately?...” He placed a hand on his chest in an exaggerated display of concern. “... are you going to be okay? Don't push yourself....” He drops the act quickly. “Your dress sense is fine, don't stress about it.” Unsure of how to respond about her words on falling into depression. “If it came to that I would reach out and maybe stay in closer proximity to work then.” He nods to her plans for next year. “Well if it falls through then you are welcome to visit me for a calmer holiday. I warn you tho, I am a little boring usually, maybe you can catch up on all the missed films you haven't seen.” At the mention of his Christmas gift from her, there is a mild embarrassment. “Dude, you should have said you were getting me something, I felt so bad when I saw it and had nothing in return. But in terms of the actual gift I haven't put the thing down.”

“That's great to hear. It should not matter how hard you are to please, at the end of the day you enjoyed it. So can I assume you are a bit of a history buff? Or?” Oh no, another person to have to explain Aella's nickname for him. “Its her chosen nickname for me. You do not need to use it, Charles is perfectly fine as well. It is nice to formally make your acquaintance outside of work Morgan.” Another face successfully linked with another name.
