"I want to squeeze it to death," Brie murmurs with a chuckle, holding the teddy bear to her chest. She gives it a squeeze.
"Not so angry anymore, though."
"My name is Brie. I'm a musician. I was here to, ah. To discuss throwing a charity concert to raise money for the Slums."
She's making it up as she goes.
โ Maybe. But i'm impressed that you managed to make it this far in. โ
ใใWhoever this person isใผ she shouldn't be here, that's for sure. Perhaps she's telling the truth...or perhaps she's lying. Yuria is giving the other benefit of the doubt.
โ Identify yourself, Miss. โ
"Where's Barret?"
She doesn't want to announce to a stranger that Barret is her big brother, but that might be the only way to alleviate this situation.
"If Barret's going to be here soon, I'm sure he can explain everything. He's the reason that I'm here at all."
Was it someone she knew, Jessie wouldn't be worried for one second. But her body language and words didn't match, and she feared the worst. She took a step forward, head tilted to the opposite side.
"Other interests? What other interests? &
"That's me. More often then not, I'm inside, making sure our guests are treating the girls with respect. Tonight, they've got me on door duty."
She tucks the lighter back into her pocket and leans against the wall.
"And you're Reno."
@RudeAndForce "We take the safety of the bees very seriously here," Brie responds with a grin. She's sure she'll see Rude around again. She doesn't find herself too bothered by it.
"Have a good night."
She takes a cigarette from the box, raising it to her lips to light it.
"Mm. I wouldn't say it's normally a problem, but... some people don't take no for an answer."
To think that someone without an ID would slip into SHINRA HQ undetected, Yuria can only deduce the person to be an intruder. Usually she'd alert the security, but she has yet to do so.
ใใโ Oh? I'd like to hear it. Then i'll decide what to do with you. โ
@TacticalxKiller "I've been told that," Brie grins, her eyes alight with something warm and mischievous. She recognizes a Turk when she sees one, but she has no reason to be afraid.
"Abriella, the lead singer and bass of Mako Melodies, right?"
"Something like that. To this little group, anyway."
She crosses one leg over the other, tapping the heel of her boot against her shin. Appraising the stranger, she chuckles.
"Wedge mentioned a merc the last time we spoke. Must be you."
When he first steps into the meeting room, he pauses for a brief secondโ always a little on edge with new unfamiliar faces. They're the only ones there, which is a little surprising since Cloud always makes sure to arrive last minute to not wait around.
