Jayde was a sporty girl in her own right, and the only reason she covered up regularly was that she felt she didn't look good with a tan. when they got changed she paid close attention to Serina's body though her own procelainish complexion only broken by what was apparently a birth mark between her shoulders. she tried to swallow a little bit of jealousy, what with herself being rather more flat than anything else.<br/>The blonde was the last to catch up but held the pace once there, being just a bit taller and with longer legs it was actually a little bit of a challenge to make the speeds match.<br/>"you know rose, i had pegged you all wrong the whole way, if this is the real you you're so much cooler than everyone thinks." she also quietly added to herself "it also means that brother and i need to rethink our approach entirely, shallow things are useless."<br/><br/>------<br/><br/>Nyria made sure to stay out of the way, that was not too difficult, she was naturally an easy to ignore wallflower, as the revelation of who this cybernetic slave city belonged to was revealed though she felt her heart sink, she had a contract like that in the pipes, it was how she had a roof over her head, though her contract was considerably tamer than what it could be, and belonged to the cafe rather than anyone else... well, used to, the urufu twins had nicked off with it, whoever their uncle was, he was loaded.<br/>when they entered her cafe some divine snitch however had decided that her secrets were not for her to keep and they found a simulacrum of her, dolled up in the maid uniform she used to work, in what looked to be a sales display at a doll store, a pair of golden figures, vaguely recognizable as being a young man and woman walked up to that display and purchased this doll, before the scene transitioned to a different glowing figure, that those familiar may or may not recognize as shaped like mike opening up this box and hugging the doll of her.<br/>now one might think this prince charming story would end with the girl doll becoming real but no, it really just ended on the doll having a good owner and serving him.<br/>The Maid girl really just wanted some kind merciful power to make her disappear right this instant once that little show ended.<br/>"I... n-no... this is... all wrong, i'm not some reduced toy" the doll looked over at her sharply, apparently displeased. "I-I just do all that so i can be independent, so i can be myself... this is a lie..." the doll hissed, HISSED at her. "I have been responsible for myself ever since i started taking care of myself, and i don't miss the time before one bit..." no escalation this time...<br/>"I want to be in control of my life, not have anyone else control it, i am myself and not someone else's" now she had gone too far, the Doll gave a shriek as she grabbed what looked to be a broom and thrust it at the real her. Nyria barely avoiding it... the bristles glinted metallic, no doubt that thing was as good as a spear."
