“Yea, it is. I never got the chance to see it, though. None of my brothers do horror.” Layfon responded with a little smirk. It seemed like this girl liked her horror movies. That wasn’t necessarily a bad thing, though he hoped she wasn’t one of those people that staked out graveyards because they were ‘cool.’ He followed her to the horror section and looked at the creepily designed case that she picked out. It wasn’t one that he recognized. “I haven’t seen that one either. “ He laughed a bit, look at Monica with a bit of respect. Yup, he liked this girl. Maybe he wouldn’t just try and use her for some fun. It seemed like they would probably get along. He didn’t know her well enough to determine if they could be friends, but he had decided against trying to do anything more than befriend her. It was amazing how quickly he decided things when meeting people. “So, is horror, like, you favorite genre?” He asked her, leaning up against the shelf a little bit. He wasn’t heavy enough to tip it over, though he wasn’t a short man. At six foot he could easily see over the shelves and towards the cashier. Still the same one as before. Layfon was unsure why he was so nervous about running into someone who knew who he was. He guessed he didn’t want this girl to get all girly on him if she found out who he really was. He had learned that many women were that way. He didn’t like to lump everyone together, but that was all he had been around lately. ~~~~~~ Fixing a small Bluetooth ear piece in his ear, he accepted her personal party chat. It was much simpler this way. Quickly enough he heard a feminine voice speak into his ear and he smirked at her words, a light laugh coming from him. “No problem Zelda.” He responded, letting a light version his home world accent slip on. He found that it made it less likely people would recognize his voice. There were some strange people out there that just seemed to know. It was creepy. He had only ever done one video interview and ever since he didn’t speak in the accent of this world. One might think that it was an English accent, maybe Welsh, but it didn’t quite fit either. He found that it was quite funny to have people guess. He never gave a definite answer. “What do you want to do first?” He then questioned, leaning back in his chair and propping his feet up on his desk. His neck was turned in a somewhat uncomfortable manner so he would move eventually. For right now, he preferred to sit. ~~~~~~ Briony groaned when he looked at the clock. He had only been here for two hours and still he was trying to figure out a way to fix this problem. He was worried about the interview this evening, more so than he had been. There was no doubt that she would ask questions about the Nova energy source. Not much had been leaked, that much Briony was thankful for. No blueprints or data that he couldn't twist in some way, to make it seem much less important of a breakthrough than it was. It was going to take a lot of work. He was also going to be late getting home, he just knew it. Picking up his phone, he dialed Rowan's number. It rang but went to voice mail. Knowing what the elf was probably up to didn't make Briony any happier. Lucky guy got to play all day. He tried Layfon next. ~~~ Layfon's phone went off and he sighed, rolling his eyes. "Sorry, again." He said to Monica and asnwer the phone. He didn't even get to say hello before Briony was off talking. "Look, I need you to make sure you are at home at 6:30 PM. I am going to be late, don't ask, just do it." He sounded frustrated and rather worried, Layfon could pick up that much by how urgent he sounded. "Oliver-please-but" He responded but didn't get a word in since he had tried to talk before his brother was finished. He sighed, a frown on his features. "Fine. Why didn't you call Jack?" He questioned, using the names they went by here. It was best in case someone was listening in. Call it paranoia, but it was all something that they had agreed to, unless they were all in the house. "He didn't answer his phone. I'll explain better later, by." Briony spoke quickly and hung up, leaving Layfon to just stare at his phone and then look up at Monica smiling. "My other older brother is giving me a curfew for the evening." He joked some, trying to break the mood that Briony had set by his tone of voice. Something must have gone wrong at work to make Briony think he was going to be late for something he set up. He realized he had said both of his brother's names out loud and given his own to Monica. He hoped she didn't put two and two together. ~~~ Briony sighed as he hung up and then called the number that belonged to the reporter that he had made the interview with. He anted to be courteous and warn her that he might be late. It was only polite after all. That and he wanted to try and figure out if she was going to ask him about the Nova Reactor.

Monica shrugged when he mentioned not having seen the one she showed him. She hadn't expected him to, actually this was one of those foreign scry movies. They usually were the creepiest. She placed the movie back and plucked a movie from the rack that looked like an okay comedy. She had heard good reviews on it and at least Sophie would watch this one. When he asked if horror was her favorite she gave a small purse of her lips. "In a way, yeah. I just like suspense I guess." She said hoping that kind of summed up her thoughts on it. She knew mostly horror genres attracted some odd people but she hardly classified herself as too odd. Besides liking nutella and peanut butter and scary movies, she really did have anything in her closet of secrets. Sure there were the ocasional things she likes to keep to herself about her life, but she liked being open enough with people. The more you said, the less you had to be worried about later. She was hardly bothered when he answered his phone again and simply went back into looking though movies that her sister would watch. She was looking at the back of a romanitc sorta chick flick when he said a few names that kinda stuck in her mind. Wow, three guys huh? Must be a busy household. But what was it about those names that messed with her interest for a moment? Somehow she had heard them before, one way or another. Then again Jack, Oliver, and Micheal weren't exactly uncommon names. She went back to her movie hunt, waiting for him to finish. He said something about a cerfew and she gave him a glance with a smile. "Darn, too bad." Her sister never really set boundaries for her, she was free to do as she pleased what with her sis working all day. But it seemed his family was close by the way he spoke. It just seemed all to natural that he understood his reasonings in making him have a curfew. Normally someone would argue that kinda thing right? Oh well, who was she to stick her nose in others business. She turned her thoughts back to the movies, the purpose she came here for not the guy she had found... "Maybe these will work. I dunno, sisters are too hard to choose for. Do these look cute and sensitive enough?" She said as she looked over the three movies she had picked up that looked like things her sister would watch. ~~~ Sophie was in the middle of reading over one of the notes she had made when her phone rang. She flipped it open and thought she recognized the number but wasn't too sure. She pressed talk and brought up to her ear. "Hello this is Sophine Belvidere with Futures magazine." She said pleasnatly though she was hardly in the mood. She was a bit caught up in her focus of learning her questions for the pressing interview that could change her career.

She smiled," Well I want to try the new hard level where there is a dragon boss that multiple heads, I'm dying to see it.. I know its an extreme level but I'm dying to see it." She said her excitement getting the best of her. "Lets meet on the Server Levithy-on section 142. I'll wait for ya in game, thought I'm betting your system runs much faster than mine since your level..." She wasn't wasting any time on this she was getting right to business here, She had an actual competent player with her and he made her look like a noob, that made her aggravated to be the best she could be. Logging into a non PVP server she didn't want to have the temptation to killing noobs, in front of the higher level that was. " You ready? Can I access that level at level 150 ya think?" She was smiling as the looked threw the requirements in the quest log, it didn't specify so she didn't really know.

“Suspense is always a good thing.” When it comes to movies, he finished the sentence in his mind. He liked suspense as well, but he hadn’t been able to take watching anything too extreme for a while after he had gotten here. The fact that de didn’t know if he was going to live or die might have played a role in that. Layfon knew that he had gotten off rather easy compared to Briony and Rowan. He still had his trauma because of the evil queen and he still had nightmares on occasion. He just seemed to have gotten over it better. Probably, because he didn’t feel like she could touch him in this world. He knew that she had a long reach, but he liked to pretend that she couldn’t come here. He chuckled at her comment about curfew. It had been more of a joke on his part than anything. He knew he needed to be home before 6:30 really, but that didn’t mean he couldn’t go out later, after the interview. “It’s just for some family function or whatever. It’s not like I can’t go out afterwards.” He explained, though it was rather unneeded. When she asked him about three movies she had picked out, Layfon leaned over and looked. He was a bit close to her, but he paid in no mind. “Those two look like they would make a girl cry and laugh and that one is pretty much porn without the sex.” He pointed to each one, the last one he had actually seen and figured he would warn her. The third one was an odd chick flick that had a bit of nudity and a rather lot of heavy petting. Interestingly enough, it was only rated R. ~~~~ Rowan smiled as the girl speaking through his ear piece sounded excited. It was good that she was eager and seemed like an avid player. “That one’s fun.” He responded as he logged onto the server and section she had listed. His screen was up, graphics looking great as always. He stood in a corner close to one of the shops, his name in bright-fiery red. He wasn’t a huge talker, even when on private chat. Rowan hoped she wouldn’t mind. Her question made him chuckle some. “You’ll kick ass, don’t worry about your level.” He told her, smiling himself. “It’s good you’re a Sky Elf. How high have you gotten your healing spells?” He then asked, figuring he would try to get to know a bit more about her character. He could look her up, but this was more fun. ~~~~ When Sophine answered the phone, Briony turned in his chair and faced the window in the side of his office, looking down at the landscape. “Hello, Ms. Belvidere. This is Oliver Hayes and I wanted to inform you that due to—certain circumstances, I may be late to our scheduled appointment. I would still like have the interview be this evening though. My brothers will be at home they will make sure you are comfortable. I will try get home as soon as possible.” He explained, frowning as he noticed that his tone still had a hint of frustration in it. He had tried to clear it away and he had for the most part. It had seeped through his careful tongue when he mentioned ‘circumstances.’ “I really do apologize.” He added in after a short pause.

"Family functions have a tendency to run longer than you might think." She said, musing about the time she missed going out with her friends to a local dance club over the fact that some uncle in her family got the idea to make an hour long speech for her sister's engagement party. Besides she didn't even like the people there, especially her fiancé. Monica gave the last movie a raise of her brow before putting it back. "Great. I should have know you couldn't trust a movie with the cover of a beach." She said then observed her choices. So stuff that would make her laugh and cry? Interesting, though highly unlikely. Sophie maybe, herself...well Monica found some of these plots to be kind of annoying, especially when they got into the reasons they couldn't stay together and stuff. They said love was supposed to conquer everything right, so a few differences between people wasnt such a big deal right. As long as they were good to you and you cared about them, what was the big deal? She quelled her thoughts toward romantic movies and gave the cases a tap. "Alright I think these take the cake. But there might be something better." she muttered before looking to Micheal again. "So you know my genre of choice. What's yours? Hopefully not the 'touching' chick flicks." It was a rather corny play on words but it worked for the moment. ~~~ Sophie got that worry line between her brows when he told her what was going on. She at first felt that small nervous flutter in her chest when she heard the Hayes name, but it was short lived when she heard the irritation in his voice. Whatever this circumstance was it must have been quite a serious mess up. So she would be alone with the two brothers she never spoke to? Interesting, but at least Oliver said he was going to try and be there as soon as he could. She really didn't want to take up too much of their time and well, he seemed to be the head of the family. Well he should be due to the fact he was the one at the top of the Hayes corporation. Conners had filled her in on that earlier. "It's not a problem, Mr. Hayes. Life happens. I wish you the best with these circumstances." She said being honest in her understanding. He agreed to the interview after all and was very formal and nice about the whole situation though she was sure this must hold its own burden. She would be vapid to assume there wasn't.

Seeing his toon by a scrolls shop she stopped, her toons name a bright blue, She chuckled into the mick,"Nice name tag, Its maxed everything I have is maxed. Well all but the damned Igneous Shield passive.... I need like 30K more Skill points for it." She muttered her skills shame on how she was low on SP near the end of the game and was lightly embarrassed, she was the top of her game all but one stupid spell. "Are you sure I'll be okay? It might lower my defense- wait what am I talking about- your in my party I'll be perfectly fine." She muttered more to herself in humor as she selected the quest start reading grew it quickly to get the gist of the quest. She noticed that the didn't talk much but she only smiled because that she would eventually talk enough for both of them. When she got into the game she picked up the accent from the characters she was playing and hearing all the time, she had only been playing this game for a few years now and hanging on every update. Maybe she was addicted- but it was too much fun to just drop.

Layfon smiled some at the family function comment. Yes they did, but he didn’t think that this interview would be longer than two hours-tops. Of course such things could be unpredictable and Briony was probably going to be late. He would have to go online and see what the fuss was about. The last time Briony had called him from work to say he had been late, a huge scandal had erupted and the press was trying to swarm the office. Unfortunately for them, Briony dislike the press and everyone trying to get in his personal business. The scandal had involved lower level employees but they still wanted to ask the CEO about it. Chuckling some, Layfon had a thoughtful look on his face. What was his favorite genre? “Well, I like action comedies and documentaries.” He told her and shrugged his shoulders some, walking down the aisle some until he found the action and comedy movies. Picking up one he hadn’t seen yet, he held it out to her; mimicking her ‘any good’ look. People didn’t take Layfon as someone who liked documentaries but he found them informative. For a while, the brothers had thought that they were the best ways to learn about this world. It wasn’t quite accurate, but they watched a good twenty of them. Layfon kept watching them after they learned how to read the language here. Occasionally his brothers would watch one with him, their favorite being about the penguins. They were just too damn cute. ~~~ “Thank you. I must go now, though it has been a short conversation. Have a good day.” Briony said his goodbyes and hung up. By the sound of it the woman either didn’t know what was going on or she didn’t put two and two together. Or maybe she was just not going to talk about it. Either way, Briony didn’t have a whole lot of time to dwell on it. He also didn’t have time to go out for lunch. Frowning like he had been pretty much the whole day at work, he called his secretary and had her go out for him. It was much easier that way. Many people thought that the head of the company didn’t do anything. They were paid way too much. Briony could see why some people would think that, but saying they did no work? Paper work for hours than meetings that seemed pointless and dull; don’t forget the fact that he had to be the face of the company and cover any press conferences or company interviews. Briony disliked the press for more reasons than just the fact that he had to keep a secret. ~~~ Rowan smiled when he saw Zelda come up on the screen, name blue above her pretty little toon. She explained about her maxed spells, all but Igneous Shield passive. “That’s alright. You won’t need that one. I can help you with SP if you need it after we do this quest.” He offered as he stood up and walked over to his bed and plopped down on it. “Yea, you’ll be fine. I won’t let the mean ole monster kill you.” He teased as he waited for her to be ready. He knew what he was going to have to do and he could figure out how to work it with his new partner. After all, this really was mainly a way for Rowan to get to see how well they worked together.

((Lol I could so see three men on the couch, geeking out as Morgan Freeman did a montage on marching penguins lol)) Monica was surprised when he mentioned documentaries being apart of his choice of movies. When she thought of documentaries she thought of science class or the ones her father watched about old military tactics. There were some good ones out there that actually interested her, like the one she watched about the history of urban legends and even one that was about current facebook dangers with faked profiles. She smiled when she saw his movie choice. "Yeah. It's a good one. The explosions are pretty cool." She said but she couldn't quite get over the thought that she really was just wandering around having a conversation with a complete stranger. Wasn't this something that people advised against in big cities? She wasn't uneasy however around him so she wouldn't think much of it. She trusted her senses when it came to people. "But documentaries? Hm, I've got to say that's a bit of an odd mix." She said not teasing him for it but actually genuinely glad to find that he did like a mix of everything. ~~~ Sophie nodded though it wasn't necessary before she let him go. Really they must be a busy family. Then again companies didn't build themselves over night. A thought struck her and instantly she buried herself back into her bubble of work as she scribbled down a few more questions that would work for the interview. She had a bad habit of getting lost in her writing and often times faded out of reality when she got into her spells of intense concentration. It was part of the reason she loved writing actually. It was a good way to forget about the world and stress around you for a moment, just to focus on your words and how they flowed on a page.

Susanna smiled," Really?! Awesome! After this. Maybe I have to drive my friend to a work thingy...Okay, I'm set... I got my runes for the mission." She started the quest and it ported them into a huge dungeon that was a maze like room, she huffed she hated puzzles. About a third of the way threw the mission she huffed," I hate puzzles! why are they so confusing!" She was about the throw her controller, she hated puzzles with a passion..." You take lead dumb puzzles..., I'll heal and tank for the time being but you do the codes... I'm so confused..." Checking her phone she was looking at t the time i t was getting kinda close to when she needed to log to take Sophine.

Putting the movie that Monica had seemingly approved of in his other hand, along with the new horror film; he now had two movies that he was for sure going to buy. It wasn’t like he had to worry about spending too much money. He quirked his eyebrows as if intrigued by the prospect of good explosions and smiled. Then she mentioned documentaries. Layfon’s smile grew and his eyes sparkled. “I might look like an airhead but I like to try and learn something new occasionally.” He laughed some, using the expression that many women had called him before. He could be an airhead at time, forgetting important times or just saying stupid things. In reality, the idiotic things he said were just cultural differences. This whole world was so different from where he had come from originally. The way they did things was much more open than he was used to. The blatant sexuality of their culture had been a shock, just not a completely bad one in his opinion. “You ready to check out?” He questioned, a bit of a silly smile on his face. He took her movies from her and made his way to the counter, sticking his tongue out at her in a teasing manor. Pulling out his wallet, he removed a thin black American Express credit card. If that didn’t give away his status as a rich kid than he didn’t know what would. Turning around to the counter, his face fell into one of those ‘oh, shit’ looks. The checkout clerk was a man he recognized from a few months ago and it seemed like the man recognized him as well. The clerk glared at Layfon while he scanned the movies. Layfon only blinked dumbly. “Micheal.” The man said in acknowledgment. “Chad.” Layfon responded and glanced back at Monica. It had to be someone he had a one night stand with and never called again. This was awkward. Not many people were cool with the whole ‘bisexual’ thing. Layfon just happened to be built that way. It was something natural to him to see the attractive features in both sexes and really multiple species. There just weren’t any other humanoid species in this world. Just humans. Chad looked over the counter as Layfon swiped his pretty black card and shook his head. Scratching the back of his head, Layfon sighed. “Look, I’m sorry I didn’t call. Things---“ He was cut off by Chad handing him his check. “Have a good day Mr. Hayes.” The man said, dislike evident in his voice. Eyes wide, Layfon took a step back, smiled and grabbed the movies, handing Monica the ones she had picked out. ‘Here come the questions,’ he thought miserably. ~~~ Rowan liked it when people were excited on the game. Her tone of voice sounded how he felt. It was always different when you got to play with someone. It was more interesting, more fun. So far he liked the girl, now all he had to see was how she played. She teleported them and he found himself in a large, mazelike dungeon. He smiled, this place had many puzzles and lots of little monsters and mini-bosses. It seemed like his partner didn’t so much enjoy puzzles. He found that his thoughts were correct when she hugged and whined about them. He couldn’t help but laugh afterwards, her commands suiting him just fine. “Puzzles are my specialty.” He said simply and quickly broke through the first few codes and then led both of them through the maze within ten minutes. Really, he hoped the puzzles were harder for the DLC, though he didn’t think Zelda would be happy about that. “You do know that the new content is supposed to challenge your mind, right?” He half way teased her, but it was all light hearted. He didn’t want to offend a competent player. She was quite good, knowing how to take things down and when to heal at appropriate times. It was nice to not have to walk someone through everything.
((Yay! You got my penguin joke! Haha))

Monica wasn't expecting him to take the movies from her or for him to stick his tongue out at her. She gave Micheal a shake of her head though she smiled back. Well wasn't that nice, he was going to pay for her chick flicks. She wasn't complaining, especially not when she saw him whip out that nice little card of his. She knew that visa all too well. Men used it in the bar all the time, especially when wanting to impress any women that noticed. And they did notice, including her. Not that money really caught her eye, but it definately wasn't a downside to his good looks and aparent charm. But with all the good she had to anticipate something to come up that had a bit of bad. No one was perfect. She just didn't expect it to be the man behind the counter. He was a good looking guy too, but by the sudden change in his face at seeing Micheal, she had a sense the two knew each other. Just from the brief exchange she could tell that they knew each other. Everyone got that look on their face every once in a while, and she was no exception. Well, damn. Looks like that was the Micheal flaw. He was gay...or bi. Not that it was really a problem. She was a strong believer in love who you could and live your life the way you want. But it was a bit of a let down to think the one attractive guy she meets in her little outing liked men instead. Though he was quite friendly with her. Huh, wasn't that a thought. She waited patiently, fidgetting with her shoes on the tile at the awkwardness in the air. However, she near tripped herself when she heard this Chad use the name Mr. Hayes for Micheal. She looked up at Micheal as he handed her the movies. Hayes...He couldn't mean the millionaires right? The Hayes family. The three men that stormed the market and made a name for themselves under the oldest brother's leadership in the business. Well if she remembered correctly the Micheal had two older brothers, deep pockets, and had the last name Hayes. She had to admit this was a surprise, an awkward and unexpected surprise. "Micheal Hayes...well, I have to say I wasn't expecting that." She said looking at his face to guage his reaction. He seemed to be smiling, did he expect that she already knew? She swallowed, not quite sure what to do. Well, acting normal was defiantely a choice. She wasn't the type to geek out over celebrities, though it was intimidating. "I guess I should have though, huh? Though I'm not sure I've seen your family before. Just seen the news stuff." She nodded to herself, wanting to kick herself for not realizing. It wasn't his fault that she hadn't put two and two together. It wasn't like he lied about who he was or anything. Anyways, here she was acting like a stunned moron, not her character at all. She looked to the movies then back to him. "Anyways, thanks for paying for the movies. That was nice of you." She said, playing off her nonchalance though she was still a bit stuck in her surprise.

"Well I'm glad one of us likes puzzles... I find it hard enough to get past my brother and my bother. No I didn't, huh maybe next time I should finish reading the whole description not just skim threw it." She killed the last few Gnolls and Approached the little open area in the end of the maze. Nothing threatening was there just a stone dispelled, she didn't touch it but examined it, it gave a mild description, a boring one. "I'm not gonna touch this but It seems suspicious... Whats the next step? Any clue?" She turned her camera to look at his toon, since he was just behind her, she had no idea what to do now but she wanted to see the look on the dragons' face when they bested his puzzles.
Glancing at her phone she quickly sent a text to Sophine,'When you need a ride let me know. I'm playign a game- I got a freind to play lemme know' She put her phone back down but turned on the ringer so she could hear it better.

When Layfon looked at Monica’s face he looked a bit upset. It was obvious that she had not been expecting that turn of events and she had put two and two together. He gave a sheepish smile and walked her out of the store. At least she wasn’t going all gaga over him. When she commented on how she should have guessed, he shook his head some. “I like it when people don’t recognize me. I don’t get treated differently that way.” He said simply and shrugged, wondering if she would treat him differently now. Pulling out his phone, he checked the time. He had enough time to stay here for a while before he got home. When she thanked him, he smiled genuinely. “It’s no biggy. I just thought that since I nearly ran you over that I could do something nice back. Plus, I think you’re pretty cool.” He winked some and walked ahead of her, turning around to face her. “Now are you going to go home or do you are you willing to go to the game shop with me? I still have something I need to pick up.” He was trying to get past the awkward situation and gave her a big smile. If they got past it, they might make good friends. He hoped that she wouldn’t start acting different around him, but if she did oh well. It wasn’t like he could force her to---well he could but he wasn’t mean. ~~~ Rowan chuckled, a smile still on his lips. He didn’t smile a whole lot in company but having a good partner made him even happier when playing video games. “You have a brother?” He questioned curious intonation in his voice. “I guess we have more in common than. I have two siblings myself.” He thought it would be a normal conversation. It wasn’t like they were giving away personal addresses or such. It wasn’t a topic he avoided and he hoped she wouldn’t be weirded out by him saying it. The end of the maze led them to an open area. There were no monsters around that Rowan could see but a nice tempting little stone in the middle. He read the description, Zelda’s words like background noise that he didn’t comprehend till he was done reading. “Hm, it should be relatively simple, but I am going to need your help. There should be a square on the ground that isn’t the same color as the others. Go stand on it please.” He didn’t quite command, but it was obvjous he wanted her to listen to his instructions.
((yea, I so meant American Express because they have THE black card that you have to be invited to even get. It’s pretty sweet. Gonna fix that))

((Visa has one as well. Some of the people I went to school with in Mexico had them. It's kinda crazy to think that you even get a better peice of plastic to keep in your wallet when your rich ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png) )) Sophie jumped when her phone vibrated on her desk and she gave it a small look of annoyance. She hated that she got spooked when caught by surprise. She wouldn't be surprised if even the toaster made her jump. She looked over the message and was happy to hear that Susanna could drive her. It was nice of her friend to be there for her, especially since she hardly had enough money to feed herself let alone buy a car. Taxis were also so expensive now that it seemed she might be using the bus sooner or later. She shivered at the thought and quickly texted back, ' Thanks. I'm glad you found a partner. I'll keep you posted' before she put the phone down. She had to finish this column before she could submit it to Conners. God forbid there were any mistakes or he might just take the interview from her. ~~~ Monica was slightly confused by his look. Didn't he like being a millionaire? Hell she'd give alot to have that kind of spending room. But it seemed the money wasn't the case of his displeasure. She came to discover it was the people around him that made the problem. She understood what he meant. People treated people differently depending on thier social rank. It was easy for someone to be manipulated or used for their standing in society, even though it was wrong and rather sad. But that sheepish smile just didn't seem to suit him all too well. She like his more confident smiles, like the one he gave her after saying something rather sweet. That was right, even if he was someone that was above her, it wasn't like he was a jerk or full of himself. She actually found she got a long with him and yeah, he was pretty cool himself. She returned the smile and gave a shrug. "Why not? You've been pretty cool yourself and hey, I owe you for keeping me from making a few movie mess ups." Monica wasn't looking forward to sitting in her sister's apartment while she worked and she felt like this just might be opportunity smiling down at her to have a little fun before she was forced to chill.

"yeah he throws the biggest hissy fits... its dumb. Roger captain. " She chimed back her last comment showered with humor. She looked about and found it near the enterene they had come out of. Standing on it there was a clicking noise, she got excited and it showed in her voice," Ohh.. I can't wait to see the dragon's face when we show we totally bested his big ass at his won puzzles!" Looking back at her phone as it buzzed from a text she smiled as she read it lightly and quickly on being posted and she thought of the sarcasm when she was being told gratz on finding a partner, lame the thought, the returned to her game.
