"I wish I could run that fast. I was just standing in place. Uhh....Y'know, making sure I don't get too rusty."
Star nervously laughed, a little uncomfortable.

[i]"Riiight, you totally want to go that fast so you can be in two places at once. I can tell." [/i]
-
"Technically I already can do that, Naty." Star giggled and winked as she walked out of the middle. "Maybe one of these days I'll show off what I'm capable of."

Edited by JayTea: 10/31/2017 8:31:51 PM[i]"Maybe I'll have to give you a show too - Magic can be more than just good looks and fireballs," Nat responded with a jokingly prideful tone as she followed Star from the centre. [/i]
-
"Yeah, but I prefer ranged weapons. They're more reliable than magic. Too many anti-magic things going around nowadays, y'know?" Star playfully shot back.
-
[i]"Yeah, sadly. What kind of weapons do you mainly use, pistols?" [/i]
-
"I'm the best with my sniper named Bertha, but I always carry pistols and not her because of the weight. Kinda annoying to have her with me at all times. My skill with everything else is about equal...y'know, better than what should be possible."
-
[i]"Above average, yeah? Alright hotshot, care to show me something?" [/i]
-
"Above average?! I'm a lot better than just above average....If you wanna see more than what I was just doing I guess I could humor you." Star thought for a second before nodding. "How many guys do you think I can take out with a single bullet in one of these guns?"
-
[i]"I dunno, three?" [/i]
-
Star rolled her eyes. "You think so little of me...." The room formed a simulation of three men lined up and with one trigger pull from Star they all fell to the floor with their heads blow off.
-
[i]"Huh. Looks like you're hot [b]and[/b] deadly, what's your record on that?" [/i]
-
Star shrugged. "In a competitive scene? A whole team of a dozen players. In a fight? I shot through the kneecaps of like, 15 guys? In training, I've got in the hundreds. My rounds don't lose velocity after passing through a target if I want them to."
-
[i]"How the hell does that work?" [/i]
-
Star pointed to her eyes. "Not exactly human. But don't think I need abilities like that to shoot well. Even without the eyes I can still fire through a dozen or so. I mean, .600 rounds do wonders."
-
[i]"Wait just a second - What? You aren't human?" [/i]
-
Star nervously smiled and laughed. "Hehe...Surprise?"
-
[i]"...Alright, that's a little... Different, but I can get over it. If I sound upset, I'm not - I'm just adjusting, is all." [/i] [spoiler]For the record, Nat's only half human lol. She just doesn't know. [/spoiler]
-
Star sighed in relief. "Oh thank you for there not being as much racism here....Back home I've had some people not react so kindly. For the leagues I always lied and said I was human with a genetic problem that gave me weird eye colors."
-
"Heterochromia? I would've just said contacts," Nat said with a laugh.
-
"Some people would say things about "I'm on to you!" and I always worried it was the nonhuman thing, but it was always them thinking I wore contacts just to come off more sexy or whatever." Star chuckled. "Apparently the eyes are attractive or something to some humans."
-
[i]"Trust me - They are." [/i]
-
She giggled at the comment and blushed lightly. "Thanks, Nat. May I ask which colors you find the most attractive though? Is it a combination like my current blue and orange or do you like them both being pink or something?"
-
[i]"Hmm... Did I ever shoe you a picture of what my hair used to look like when I dyed it? Purple is my favourite colour, but a specific shade." [/i]
-
"No, you haven't. Purple? The one color I can only change to in specific moments sadly." Star sighed in disappointment. "Purple is the sign of passionate love for my kind. You'd think it would be red, but red means the complete opposite. Basically, if I have red eyes you run far far away."
-
[i]"Same thing applies to humans. And honestly that pink you have is REALLY -blam!-ing hot." [/i]
