( well, wherever he is (one comment chain up), aventurine would be so lucky... which is to say, yeah, by only the blessing of some other, higher power, he'll always be out there pulling off sunglasses indoors.

robin, meanwhile, has no such good fortune — even if she's having a merry little time witnessing stelle's antics in her (un)natural habitat. strange. it's the first time she's been identified on the spot. her wings have been tucked away to nearly blend in with the low bun she's sporting and her glasses are dark enough to dim the blinding lights of the party. maybe it's a strange feeling for the instant recognition to bring with it a small sense of comfort... more than unease and the instant urge to flee. )

Unless you moonlight as a mechanic, I somehow get the impression that we wouldn't be getting very far.

( to say the least. stelle isn't bursting into flames though, which means that robin doesn't have to try as hard to hold back her amusement as the casino's patterned carpet now sports a slight singe mark, punctuated by a fleur de lis. ) Though if we both start catching fire... I guess there's really no better time to check out the pool.

( how many chips for that cab ride though... she's broke. )

Did you really win after just one spin?
