Welcome to Gaia! ::

Ami would, as promised, recieve a text exactly the next morning from Allan.

By now, Wilson had made himself comfortable in Gale’s home (plus an Eva). There had certainly been a heated (???) conversation about who would take the extra room and who would take the couch, but eventually he won in the end. Legs crossed and leaning into the couch, Wilson fiddled with his Rubik’s Cube, one of the few things that hadn’t been waterlogged when he finally checked on his dorm. He sort of wished he had a book or something more interesting. Video games would have been preferable, but alas. His phone rang and Wilson tossed the cube to the side, letting it quietly clatter to the floor because that cube was damn sturdy.

He opened the new message and the first thing he did was frown at the mention of Allan.

Allan.

Allan was nice and he meant well, but the man was odd. However, if coming to the training field meant he could help Ami with this mission, he would gladly oblige. The trainee began to walk backwards, calling out to Gale and Eva. “I’ll be back later!” He hopped down the stairs (still backwards??!) and began to text Ami a message back.

“Genki isn’t a noun. It’s more of an adjective! It’s supposed to mean energetic or healthy.” Thank you otaku friend from college. Wilson was still walking backwards when he entered the training fields, but as soon as he spotted Ami he turned around and waved. “Hey!”

Kat lay sprawled across her bed when she received the text. Not willing to move quite yet, she lazily reached over for the phone, but ended up knocking the damned thing off the table and down onto the floor. "Oh for--" Growing irritated by the constant buzzing, she finally pushed away from the bed and went in search of the phone.

Flipping it open, she found that the text was from Ami, and that she had invited her on a mission. And Allan was going to be there as well? Rubbing the sleep from her eyes, she punched in a quick reply, letting her know she would be there soon. After she grabbed a large cup of coffee along the way.

Dragging herself along, she was more awake now, thanks to chugging the coffee down as she walked over to the training fields. She was a bit nervous as to what this mission would involve..hopefully nothing as crazy as the training Ami and the others had endured..Kat would die!

Finally arriving, she swallowed the last of her coffee and waved to the others who had already arrived. "Sorry I'm late."

Ami put her pass around her neck as a way to safeguard it. Kawaii? Who the ******** was named Kawaii? Then again, some people had weird names. Maybe it was part of the disguise? It must've just been a name like "Susan" or "Tina" but for Japan. Yeah that probably it.

She couldn't decide between a really pretty pink dress or a strange sort of uniform, but in the end the uniform won out. The heels that went with the pink dress just looked sort of annoying. Not to mention it came with a shield, and Ami wasn't a big fan of shields. They were hard to use. Plus the uniform would "blend in" more. Wasn't he talking about some sort of stealth mission?

Ami changed in a matter of seconds behind a training wall that wasn't destroyed, and changed into her outfit. Her braid kept snagging on the little buttons, so she took it down, letting all of her strawberry blonde hair down. There that was much better. She felt awkward and incredibly stupid, but if Allan said jump, she'd ask how high.

"Ah ... is this good?" she asked the general group.

Allan was going to kill them all. Looking at the sun lead's damage to the training field, Marcus the send of dread creeped up upon him when Dis casually mentioned the horror stories Marcus had heard. Allan was like Julie. Prone to ruining all forms of self respect.

Still not knowing what tachi meant, Marcus assumed 'b***h' and listened to the sun lead's 'mission'. The yaoi made him visibly flinch. He knew what that meant now. He didn't like it, even if Dis did. Costumes set out, Marcus flinched again. They were probably like the headbands. Going to ******** him up. Still you couldn't really say no to a division lead.

Shuffling through the costumes, he checked sizes again and again only to see that yes, too small. When he did find an outfit that worked? "The ******** is this?"
I like.
Of course you would.

The outfit reminded Marcus of some kind of gay anime thing he'd seen once.

Once he put it on? "I feel ridiculous."
Your skin and hair don't match the costume.
Does it look like I care?
Small bonus, Allan wasn't making him spoon Wilson.
Yet.

Ami tried to hide her satisfaction in seeing Wilson in a suit, but Marcus earned an open guffaw. Damn they looked nice. Kat too! She was adorable in that little pikachu costume! Yeah, Ami at least knew pikachu. How could you not?

At Wilson's comment, Ami looked over at Marcus, completing trying to ignore it, but a crimson color on her face giving her away. "Th-The suit looks great on you Marcus! Cass will like what she sees when the big day comes." She smiled. Marcus and Cass' wedding was going to be great!

Noticing Kat's discomfort, she said, "It looks okay Kat- there's no need to get angry!" She smiled and said, "Besides, it's better than what I picked out!"

Ami and Wilson made him smile even if he didn't agree. He had his suit fitted and whatnot, and just- costumes. He couldn't take them seriously. "thanks but really." He sighed. Taking the glasses, the trainee put them on, pulled them off, then put them on again.

"....Are there ones without making my vision all ******** up?"

Ami was absolutely horrified by the smell, the sight ... She liked movie theaters, she did, but this? This was just murder to the senses. Bright colors, sweaty bodies- NO THANK YOU.

"Ewww ew ew ew," she whispered to Kat, shaking her head.

It hadn't even dawned on her to look up at the screen until now. Why would the leaders allow a movie to be shown in the civilian world? She could never see any of them approving this- not even Allan, as happy-go-lucky as he was. They'd never let people view hunters- not this closely. "How can we take it down..." Options options. There was also the problem of GETTING to the projector. How could they do this without-

Okay calm. Think. They could take the projector out without too much fuss. It might be risky- surely there was someone running it who would have to be dealt with. The trailer piece was probably sitting up there- it would be easy once the projector was taken. Game plan, that's what they needed. She spoke quickly, her thoughts not really connecting to each other, but having enough direction behind them to carry it. "We should head for the projector first- take out the movie as soon as possible. The trailer can wait." She looked over at Wilson and said, "Wilson, go scout up around the booth and look for the best way to get into the booth. Kat, once we're in you can take out ... immobilize the person guarding it. Marcus and I will come in from behind and turn the projector off. Marcus, since you're biggest you'll probably have to carry it back- can you handle it?" She rubbed the bridge of her nose realizing she was talking too much. "That's the only way I can think to do it."

Was this awkward for her to give commands? She was so used to Marcus telling her what to do, who to guard, who to block. She just hoped this would work.

In the back of her mind she was wondering why they were dressed up for this, but that was an entirely different path to go down.
