She hadn't bothered to get out of her ridiculous outfit, complete with bright cyan blue lolita curled wig, mask, high heels, sleeveless top tight pants and gloves. There were a few scuff marks on it, but besides that she looked like a anime otaku freak going down the road. Or a high class hooker.
Good thing there was a convention in town, she even got a few car honks as she walked down the sidewalk... onlookers, fans, or people just looking at her tush in the tight white jeans. Either way, she hadn't brought a change of clothing or her car with her so she was stuck like this as she strolled down the roads.
She had made a phone call earlier, connecting to her captain and requesting they meet. She had the consolation prize in her hand.. a snow globe. She lost the crystal.. but what was INSIDE the snow glove was what she wanted to talk about. Oh and try to avoid her failure of acquiring the crystal.

He'd watched on the TV, so he had some idea what had 'gone down.'... that said he'd ordered pizza and drinks and was waiting for her at a booth when she entered.
He had NOT however expected her to still be in 'costume'. Part of him was debating if it was more or less embarrassing to see her like this, and if it would be preferable to have seen her in uniform.
He rather suspected he'd be hearing about the ceiling collapsing forever... from her AND his room mate.
"You -could- take off the wig at least" he said as she slid into the booth. He could just imagine what the other patrons thought of her tight pants and her outrageous wig.

"But then i would clash." Was the only explanation toki have as she grinned behind the mask and settled down into other side of the booth. She was keeping the wig on. At least with it on she could HIDE behind it.
Come to think of it maybe thats where the honks were from. "Im guessing you saw it on the screen then." She figured the whole mess would be televised... Toki suddenly wondered if her captain knew it was her behind the wig.
"I guess you saw the grand finale then, in its roof crashing glory." They gave them the globes offstage... but she wondered if the broadcast went past the roof falling.

"That I did... you did your best, I'm impressed you lasted so long given the man's disposition. Makes me proud to have you as part of my team... even with that outrageous outfit."
He said with a perfectly serious expression and sipped his soda calmly, pausing to thank the waiter as the hot pan pizza was slid between them and plates passed out.
"I hope you don't mind... I'm dead tired of tacos and I rather fancy pizza is a good alternative to that. You said you had something to talk about though?"
He paused expectant.

"That man was a damn tank... ide hate to see him on the enemies side... both hate with I'd prefer not to fight him again and the mental image of him in a fuku would sear my eyes out." She actually did twitch at the mental image she was just given... quickly forgotten though.
"No not at all, pizza is a fallback of mine as well though it goes RIGHT to my thighs." She said trying to give humor...failing but eh.
Eyes dark as she reached for a piece of pizza... she kept her gaze off. "I failed to get the crystal."

"I suspected as much when you didn't sound ... excited in the phone call." He shrugged slightly. "Do we know if whomever did is 'on our side'? He tilted his head curious.
"And there must be more than that... you could have said -that- over the phone, what is on your mind?" He asked pulling himself free a slice and taking a cautious n** off the end to judge how hot it was.

"Hhhmmm was it that obvious?" She took a sip of the soda, gracious he remembered what she ordered the last time they met. "I am unsure if they were our side or not. Being as we were all dressed up, it was hard to tell one identity from another. Plus, i have not met many of our side in civilian, that i know of. So i doubt ide have recognized them either way. All i can really tell you was she was tall, female, dark skinned." She wished she had more to tell him, she had a great memory for things but she really knew nothing else.
"Well, while i did not obtain the crystal... i did receive this." She had hidden the globe somewhere on herself, where? He would never know. She placed the object before him around the pizza tray. It was a snow globe which the base looked like a flower... a woman inside looking familiar.

He blinked...
and then reached for it with no small lack of manners, pulling it towards him to -stare- wide eyed at the contents.
How could it POSSIBLY be... but it was. He remembered her clear enough from the ball. He glanced up at Toki as though she might somehow be able to answer the secret of the globe...
"That..." He said slowly... "is... Did they give any reason behind these particular gifts?"
He almost demanded. He felt... ridiculed by it somehow. But was that the truth or was there something more to it... more mystery than mockery.

"I remembered her too from the..cake incident." She added on almost as if she heard his mental note. It was why she came to zink, she had questions of her own.
"It was handed to me, almost casted off, at the end. They didnt say anything to me except 'here' and they moved on. There was one given to...." She counted. "Six people including myself."
She shifted around almost uncomfortable, not used to the demanding gaze he gave her. "I did notice something though. She... looks SIMILAR to the queen, but...different?" She knew that sounded odd but something struck her as off about the globe.

He squinted at it... scowled... and then nodded slightly.
"... I see what you mean." He frowned at it then glanced up sharply at her. "You may not have gotten what you went in for, but I want you to keep this as safe as though you had... we may want to show the ...Lady herself." He said pausing a word away from 'Queen' which seemed dangerous to say in public.
"It's probably 'over kill' but I want answers before its left anywhere unguarded." he said quietly setting it down carefully on the table and staring at it as though it might be listening in.

And see originally she thought it was just some afterthought trinket, now she was wondering if it WAS... or was a hint to something larger. Maybe it did mean something more, it seemed to have her captain being protective over it.
Either way, Toki was still unhappy to see the little trinket. It had the ENEMIES queen or..princess in it and she didnt like the idea of carrying a symbol for the white moon court around. "I will not deny that carrying something around with HER in it constantly will help my mood. Its almost as if I'm supporting them." She rolled her eyes, but all the same she reached out and pulled the thing back towards her and looked into it a moment longer.
"Orders are orders. Ill watch after it, until we know what it is... then i might break it." Why couldn't she break it, ugh. It is SO getting glares at it.

"Cover it if you have to... leave it under your bed, just keep it safe alright?" He said glancing at her scowl and back. "Odd... I do wonder..." he fingered the base... it looked like a lotus, normally that brought 'dreams' to his mind, though strictly speaking that should be poppies. Curiously 'girly' for something handed out at a wrestling event that was for certain.
He pulled out his notebook and did a crude sketch then took notes on everything from size to the number of petals and what he guessed it was made of.
"Thank you..." He said quietly as he finished.

"Fair enough." She still glared at it. The thing was so going where she keeps her socks. Far enough away from her, but still close and safe enough. Its not like anyone knew where she lived at anyways. "Got an idea?" She asked, curious what her captain was thinking while he sketched the thing out.

"Nothing I could claim as remotely reasonable." He shook his head thoughtful.
"...Just that perhaps their appearance is tied to the ... other things we're watching. I couldn't even begin to say HOW though, it's just too great a coincidence to see -that- face in them after what you were after... or even something so close to 'that' face.

"It is too close together to just be coincidence." Toki agree'd with a bright blue haired nod. "I also wonder what our Queen knows about it." She said lowering her voice so only Zac could hear. "She seemed dead set on getting the crystal, enough to make a note to make a appearance. They must be something important.... and."
She paused suddenly, thinking. "Ill bet you it has something to do with the... Other princess or queen."
