Tap , tap , tap .

Her face remains the same , though she holds an unblinking stare at her for an extended period .

⠀“ Are you serious .ᐣ ”

That was rather it of nowhere , even for someone as unpredictable as her .

digits continued to toy and play
stupid games with the others .

She lets her do as she pleases , fingers and hand lacking any resistance .

Head slumping down and resting on the surface beneath them .

she did not ask nicely ,

Her dark hues drift down again , looking at her reflection in her glass .

She raises an eyebrow , looking back to Rev as the bartender brings over another glassful for each of them .

Nephilim flags down the bartender from across the room , signalling to get Rev another drink . Her way of apologising for the comment .

⠀“ Hm . Heard . I'll see where this goes . If anything , it'll be interesting . ”

Her eyes flick orange , sending a simple 'hit me with the deets' to the woman in front of her .

⠀“ There , just so I know who's messaging me . Speaking of , got a name .ᐣ ”

It was like the whimsy immidiately inhabited Nephilim , though the only sign of that would be a more noticeable smile .

She rests her chin in her hand , feeling the numbness spread , eyes rolling a little .

all whimsy immediately drops from

Does she want someone to take a look at it .ᐣ

She doesn't claim to be a mechanic , but you pick up a few things growing up with a ripperdoc .

She takes a moment to think , consider all her options .
