@MichinGeomi With an unimpressed expression, she raises a brow.

"You. What of it?"

[𝑪. 𝑽𝒊𝒑𝒆𝒓 @SuitedShock]

Adjusting her sunglasses, C. Viper continues to read the newspaper while sitting at a local cafe. Obviously, she was waiting for her target[READER] to make their appearance.

[𝑪. 𝑽𝒊𝒑𝒆𝒓 @SuitedShock]

Tightening the glove on her right hand, C. Viper stares outward from atop a building. Eyes on her next target, she crouches.

"Target is in my sight. Proceeding to engage."

[𝑪. 𝑽𝒊𝒑𝒆𝒓 @SuitedShock]

Adjusting her sunglasses, C. Viper nods to herself.

"It is time."

[𝑪. 𝑽𝒊𝒑𝒆𝒓 @SuitedShock]

Appears.

@StrongestBat "Are you sure?"

Crimson Viper would then do something she has only done for Lauren.

She opens her arms.

[𝑪. 𝑽𝒊𝒑𝒆𝒓 @SuitedShock]

@StrongestBat Crimson Viper wasn't sure Cassandra would hug her, so when it happened, she would hug back.

"I'm sorry if I ever hurt you."

[𝑪. 𝑽𝒊𝒑𝒆𝒓 @SuitedShock]

@StrongestBat "Are you? I left without warning. I.....abandoned you."

These were conflicting feelings, as Crimson Viper never truly cared for anyone. Only Lauren mattered.

Now?

Cassandra did as well. It, made her feel weak. Yet, strong.

[𝑪. 𝑽𝒊𝒑𝒆𝒓 @SuitedShock]

@StrongestBat "Do you miss her?"

The redhead watches the painting commence, she then looks over at Cassandra.

"I.....miss you."

[𝑪. 𝑽𝒊𝒑𝒆𝒓 @SuitedShock]

@StrongestBat "Go ahead. It is your painting, after all."

Crimson Viper would watch as Cassandra continued.

"Lauren has asked about you."

[𝑪. 𝑽𝒊𝒑𝒆𝒓 @SuitedShock]

@StrongestBat Grabbing the brush, she pats some paint with it, then adds a tree with some black colored apples.

"I used to paint quite a bit. Once I started my job, I had no time. I miss painting, however, I do not believe I am any good."

[𝑪. 𝑽𝒊𝒑𝒆𝒓 @SuitedShock]

@StrongestBat "Seems you don't know much about me. May I?"

She needed to know whether or not it would be okay to add something to Cassandra's art.

[𝑪. 𝑽𝒊𝒑𝒆𝒓 @SuitedShock]

@StrongestBat Crimson Viper watches for a bit before sitting next to Cassandra.

"May I add something to it?"

[𝑪. 𝑽𝒊𝒑𝒆𝒓 @SuitedShock]

Wakes up, then stretches.

[𝑪. 𝑽𝒊𝒑𝒆𝒓 @SuitedShock]

@StrongestBat Searching. Looking through files. Crimson Viper stops at a certain document. Mentally, she had to stop herself from working. Though, it was quite hard to shut off that part of her brain.

"Apologies. I could not sleep. So, I decided to look more into this puzzle of ours."

[𝑪. 𝑽𝒊𝒑𝒆𝒓 @SuitedShock]

@StrongestBat Crimson Viper was not anticipating this move from Cassandra. So, for a moment, her brain thought about what to do, yet her instincts kicked in, and quickly both arms wrapped around Cassandra.

"Cassandra......I promise to never hurt you. You are too precious to me."

[𝑪. 𝑽𝒊𝒑𝒆𝒓 @SuitedShock]

"Ah, right. The day most show off their bodies. Hmm."

Raises her newspaper, and begins to read while drinking from a mug filled with coffee.

[𝑪. 𝑽𝒊𝒑𝒆𝒓 @SuitedShock]

"I've been gone too long, it seems. It is time to correct things."
