knights of legend } { so what are we stealing?

{ a | recon }

[She's been planning this job for weeks, and tonight is the night they decide to change up the security on her. True, she can't account for when some New York socialite is going to decide to use her museum for a last minute birthday bash, but never let it be said she isn't quick on her feet. She dresses to blend in with the elite upper class without a second thought (disguise check: nat. 20) but she managed to get the gay bouncer on her first go-round as well as completely flub her cover (bluff check: crit. fail). She had to wait for the shift change for her second time at the door (bluff check: 16), which was much more fruitful.

Now she just has to make sure she doesn't get caught.

Still, she mingles throughout the party like a pro, mixing and mingling as she goes. It doesn't really matter how long at takes. At the end of the night that diamond is going to be hers.]


{ b | the job }

[She manages to slip back into the museum in the lapse between security teams. Getting back in after the party is over without alerting the guards is cake (move silently check: 17), and she eases her way through the halls with ease. She just barely makes a security camera around the diamond (spot check: 7.5), and pins herself to the far wall.

It's just a few feet further to get to her prize. Again, right now this is all about not getting caught.]


{ c | the afterparty }

[She waits until she's a couple towns over before calling her fence from the car and finding a bar for a celebratory drink. Considering all the last minute hang ups? She herself is surprised she managed to pull that one off. Still, a job well done is a job well done, and she's ready for a beer.

She walks in, slides onto the stool in front of the bartender, and flashes him her best smile.]


Any chance you have a Guinness?
graveflowers: (Ω ewww.)

[Vi is on the next stool, facing opposite and being badly flirted with. Which is saying a lot considering Vi isn't exactly the most charming lady on the block. But he's cute so she let his try and now he just won't get the hint and he's turning less cute, which is really why she wants him to leave, so she could imagine him in all his gorgeous glory instead of gorgeous and kind of a moron.

Ugh.]
Okay, you're actually boring me to death. So, please leave me alone before I make a preemptive strike.

[Yes, it's rude, but after a couple gape mouthed seconds, he vacates, seeming to understand the preemptive strike she's talking about might include his own death. Success! Somehow the tiny speck of a woman is intimidating as all get out. (Intimidate nat 20!)

She straightens on her stool and swings back to face the bar. And then looks to Felicity.]


What did you order, I can't decide and I only half heard it over the sound of his stupid.
graveflowers: (Ω awesome.)

[personal profile] graveflowers 2013-04-15 01:45 am (UTC)(link)
'cause you're awesome obviously. [Like duh. And Vi looks reasonably impressed because, you know, Guinness has that thing to it, like if you're not a 60 year old Irishman and you're drinking it then, clearly, by some accident of fate, you're a badass.

Violet is not a badass, so this might end badly, but whatever, she's going with it anyway.]


Guinness it is.
graveflowers: (Ω nose crinkle.)

[personal profile] graveflowers 2013-04-15 01:55 am (UTC)(link)
That is a might fine toast. To being awesome. [She follows suit and raises her glass, tapping it against Felicity's and taking a sip.

Oh. Wow. That sure is some beer right there.

Which she knew, she just didn't... intellectualize. Or something. Yep. Beer.]


Um, yeah, that's... an acquired taste.

[Faye's onto you. Or rather, she's bored and anyone leaving the 'party of the year' as they're toting it is certainly worth checking out in her book. She's careful to be quiet, just because she's curious where this girl is going (move silently: 20), but after they're far enough away from the party, she clears her throat and arches an eyebrow.]

You mind telling me what you're doing?

[personal profile] reallywicked 2013-04-15 02:24 am (UTC)(link)
[Faye is not buying any of what you're selling (sense motive 18)]

Right. And I'm sure the way you're checking for where the security cameras are is just to make sure they get your good side.
graveflowers: (smirk.)

[personal profile] graveflowers 2013-04-15 02:36 am (UTC)(link)
Are you Irish, maybe it's an instinct to conform to stereotype?

[She takes another sip, it's less startlingly beer and maybe a little good. In any case, she's going to finish it. Because she is that stubborn.]

[personal profile] reallywicked 2013-04-15 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
[She blinks, because the story is more believable than she was expecting (sense motive 10)]

So you're risking cash for the chance to see some old dino bones? You're either a moron or... No, just a moron.
reallywicked: (pic#3407309)

[personal profile] reallywicked 2013-04-15 02:57 am (UTC)(link)
[She stops and has to realize... Yeah, she's got her there. Faye has done way worse shit for kicks.]

You're in the totally wrong section. I think it's back this way.
reallywicked: (pic#3407308)

[personal profile] reallywicked 2013-04-15 03:04 am (UTC)(link)
[Faye is startled by the abrupt exit, but recovers quickly, using that long stride of hers to close the distance quickly.]

Wait up! [She calls out as comes up alongside the other girl.] If these dinosaurs are worth losing allowance over, I need to see them for myself.
reallywicked: (pic#3407260)

[personal profile] reallywicked 2013-04-15 03:14 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh. Physical contact. That wasn't on the menu. Faye yanks her hand away, giving the girl a Look.]

There is something seriously wrong with you.
graveflowers: (Ω relaxed.)

[personal profile] graveflowers 2013-04-15 03:38 am (UTC)(link)
Well... The Queen would say it's close enough. [Shrug. She raises her glass again, another toast.]

To Sir Alec Guinness. And... possibly the Queen.
graveflowers: (Ω grin.)

[personal profile] graveflowers 2013-04-15 03:47 am (UTC)(link)
[Okay, this is much better than that cute loser. Good life choice, right there. Vi's a little proud of herself.]

I'm Violet, by the way. It's long for Vi.
reallywicked: (pic#3098319)

[personal profile] reallywicked 2013-04-15 04:14 am (UTC)(link)
Whatever. [No, you are just a weirdo, random girl who likes dinos.]

Are you sure you know where you're going?

B!

[ as she inches against the wall... she bumps into something.

or someone, more like.

she was so focused on her cameras and alarms that she didn't see him there with her 7 spot check. he's dressed in cat burglar black, and even his skin is a dark shade that blended easily into the shadows. he glances aside at her and there's more wry humor in his eyes than fear or annoyance at being caught in the act, and his smirk seems to indicate he knows exactly why she's there, too. ]


Well.

This is embarrassing.
