Leaving the room for just her and Azmodiel, she couldn’t help but feel a bit relieved by the pat on her head; the demon warrior had always felt like a mentor to her, and now more then ever, she could use the boost in confidence.<br/><br/>“Thanks Azmodiel...”  She wasn’t sure what was going to happen on this mission, but knowing that someone believed in her made her feel more at ease. Though, she couldn’t help but flinch at the slip up the demon man made, her cheeks flushing ever so as she mentioned her friends name.<br/><br/><em>Damn it Azmodiel, not you too!</em><br/><br/>Was it that obvious? Was it<em>that</em>clear to people that she had a crush on her friend?<br/><br/>Denying it every time seemed to have worked, but now, even she couldn’t believe her own lie...<br/><br/>“Wait, what?”  Her thoughts were interrupted by a familiar name being dropped, and it became more clear to Mallory why she was in the mission.<br/><br/>Babysitting Kyless, and making sure she didn’t do anything funny. As Azmodiel gave her the run down of the instructions, she could only nod, knowing what her trust objective was. She was so used to watching Kyless in a cell, so how hard could it be if she was out of one...? Giving a quick bow to Azmodiel, Mallory made her way out the door, making her way down back to her room with Kevin. How was she going to explain to the others when Kyless showed up, considering none of them knew who she was?<br/><br/>...how was she going to explain this to Kevin?<br/><br/><hr/><div class="floatleft">(https://i.imgur.com/fgm5IMb.png)</div><strong>NAME:</strong>Mallory Minato<br/><strong>DAY:</strong>June 15th, 2021, 11 AM<br/><strong>LOCATION:</strong>City Streets<br/><strong>TAGGING:</strong>Kevin, Kyless<br/><strong>EXTRA:</strong>Mediator Mallory<br/><strong>WEARING:</strong>Outfit Style /  (https://i.imgur.com/Nd3Hh2W.jpg)Clothes (https://i.imgur.com/uoLXUhv.jpg)<br/><hr/><br/>Who knew that changing out of her lab uniform would feel so...freeing? She had been so used to wearing it all the time, working days in end, that Mallory had almost forgotten what it felt like to wear casual clothes. She didn’t get to wear them often, and because of this, many outfits that she had bought had gotten shoved into her closet, never to see the light of day.<br/><br/>Well, finally she had an excuse to wear a nice one she’d always liked. Something more casual and comfortable, and definitely less formal then what she usually had to wear when working. No longer was she the dutiful and busy worker bee Doctor, but now was...well, a normal woman.<br/><br/>At least, she could pretend for the moment.<br/><br/>Though, unfortunately, that peace of mind could only last for so long, as her new objective was at hand. As everyone was making their way to meet at the designated area, a shopping center where they’d all get their clothes, Mallory had to deal with something else, away from most of the group. As Mallory had arrived to the city streets, along with Kevin (still dressed in fatigues, like always), there was someone waiting for them, a block or two away from the meeting spot, accompanied by two SOPHE guards.<br/><br/>Kyless was, for the first time Mallory could think of, outside of SOPHE. She was fine, as she was wearing one of Toshiro’s gadgets to help her keep her powers at bay so she wouldn’t try anything (though Mallory internally sighed when she saw the bright, purple casing). Kyless would be watched by her, as that was, apparently, the main reason she was in the mission in the first place. Mallory couldn’t help but feel a little bit bitter by the fact, but that was something she was going to have to live with.<br/><br/>Though, her mind was more worried about Kevin’s reaction. As the two made their way out of the car that drove them, Mallory gave a short nod the the guards that were watching Kyless, thanking them for watching her. She glanced back at Kevin, who she hoped hadn’t pulled out his weapon.<br/><br/>“This...is my real job for the mission.”  Mallory didn’t like admitting it, making her feel a bit bummed about her importance, but then again, Kyless<em>was</em>an important aspect.  “Kyless is helping in the mission, and I have to watch her. Azmodiel...didn’t really want to tell you upfront, considering...”<br/><br/>She didn’t really need to elaborate.<br/><br/>“I know she likes to tease you, but she’s not that bad, really.”  Her brown eyes gestured towards the device that Kyless was wearing,  “That’ll keep her powers at bay, so you won’t have to worry about any illusions.” Though even as she spoke, Mallory still felt apprehensive about the two working together, even if she wanted them to get along and for this to go smoothly. She knew that Kevin just wanted to keep her safe, but now that Kyless was her mission, he was going to have to adapt, wether he liked it or not.
