    Poppin' Arms ~ Cafeteria

    "Thunder, Starr. If that was a bad movie, yer gonna have to show me a good one," said Brisa, grinning behind her tears. "Hey, let's fuckin' celebrate kickin' Joule's teeth in that way, huh?" Judging by the look on Starr's face, she'd like nothing more. <><><><><>

    Destiny Village ~ Sundae Park

    Brisa let Astrid embrace her, and wrapped her own tail around some of the nine now holding her. She stiffened for a moment as her heart burst, and a couple of tears broke free, to be wiped dry at once, and then relaxed into her friend's body, grateful beyond measure for the comfort. Heartache...

    Destiny Village ~ Sundae Park

    Brisa was certain that Astrid only thought of her as a friend, but... A moment like this? It seemed so possible. So easy to break the tension, if she could only justify it. Oh, it was agony not to know if telling her how she felt would make everything better, or only ruin it. She didn't want to...

    Destiny Village ~ Sundae Park

    She felt silly, stupid, and selfish for expecting something else (because of course she got her hopes up) but this . . . this was heavy. Astrid couldn't have told anyone else this. She'd brought Brisa up here to confide in her. This was . . . special. And Brisa mustn't let her friend down...

    Destiny Village ~ Sundae Park

    Brisa marvelled at Astrid, a gal with sparkling eyes who looked at a view like this and thought this is unique. A moment, and a memory, all their own and unlike any other. A place they could return to and recall this experience, when things were better. 'Ours.' Sky and stars. She really did...

    Reverse World ~ Downsideup City

    Brisa was a perfectly-drilled combat engine, dashing between platforms and harrying Joule with everything she had to help her allies land their alpha strikes with the greatest impact possible. Brisa and Starr, Brisa and Owen—whoever was striking, Brisa had trained with them to the point of...

    Poppin' Arms ~ Cafeteria

    Brisa fetched snacks and drinks from the cafeteria counter, and Starr went ahead to prepare the dorm lounge. When Brisa arrived, the torracat had already thrown out any residents, found some Cibus production to watch on the wall-mounted screen Brisa had long-ignored, and slung herself over the...

    Poppin' Arms ~ Cafeteria

    Okay, so a recording of a stage play. That sounded like a marvel enough, one of Cibus' many technological innovations in culture and entertainment. It could be a pleasure to watch one of those with a good friend. It wasn't gonna do anything to help, though, if Starr thought she needed rest, she...

    "What under th'fuckin' sky is a shitty movie."

    Destiny Village ~ Sundae Park

    The way Astrid looked at her sometimes... It was almost as if– She shut the thought out. Just enjoy it. Enjoy the casual physical contact. Enjoy how happy she is to be with you. Enjoy how happy you are. For once. "Uh, yeah. I'm used to cliffside scree more'n aboreal climbin', but yeah. Let me...

    Poppin' Arms ~ Cafeteria

    "No, I . . . guess not?" she answered, ears lowering a little. Was Starr just giving her a piece of rhetoric, or building up to some suggestion? Was... Was she going to set something on fire...? "What... What're ya talkin' about?"

    Destiny Village ~ Sundae Park

    Brisa smiled to herself as Astrid's mad excitement continued. Sometimes it seemed the gal just had radiance in her blood, so earnest and eager all the time as she was. It was . . . not charming, so much as reassuring. That joy was still possible. That she could have fun, so long as they were...

    Poppin' Arms ~ Cafeteria

    "Yeah, I..." Maybe she was training too hard. She was training harder than anyone, even her fellow training junkies. And she felt like shit for it. Gods. "You're right... I wouldn't've done this much battlin' in a day, ever, before now. Maybe this shit really is doin' a number on me, sky an'...

    Poppin' Arms ~ Cafeteria

    Brisa had a feeling Starr wasn't really asking, but she didn't know what better to do than make a straightforward reply... "Uh, more drill," Brisa reminded her. "Uh . . . you're better'n anyone else at that, I'd love fer ya t'join me–"

    Destiny Village ~ Sundae Park

    Brisa cocked her head and perked her ears. "I've been fer a walk there of a quiet night or two, sure. Ain't seen much of it in the light, though. ...Ain't explored it with a friend, neither." She smiled. "Shall we?"

    Destiny Village ~ Sundae Park

    Brisa took a grateful sip before returning the canteen. "Hey, happy t'see you too, partner," she replied, softly. She took Astrid's meaning well enough. It was good to spend some time together before everyone feel entirely into pre-battle jitters. "I dunno about you, but I like our chances,"...

    Poppin' Arms ~ Cafeteria

    Oh, fuck. She'd been assuming she would, but she'd never gone this hard before. What if she didn't? "Yeah, definitely," she lied.

    Destiny Village ~ Sundae Park

    Well, she sure perked up fast! Brisa couldn't help smiling as the ninetales darted to her side. Brisa was perking up too, as were her ears (now very warm indeed). She hoped for a fleeting moment that maybe Astrid would . . . just kinda bump into her, or something. Gods, she had to do something...

    Poppin' Arms ~ Cafeteria

    "Ah, sure." Brisa took the food with gratitude, while Starr waved someone over to order some more. Fucking stars above, she hadn't realised how hungry she was. Or how tired and achey, once she'd sat down. Like, so much more tired and achey than she'd even realised, holy shit. "I guess I'm...

    Destiny Village ~ X-Eye Cauldron

    Brisa glanced at Dave as his shadow hugged her. He was looking vaguely askance, but at least he didn't yell at the poor thing for a change. Shadow's embrace felt . . . strangely comforting. She returned it, and blinked away the last of her tears. She didn't say anything, just gave a nod of...
