<div class="floatleft">(https://i.imgur.com/nvQJUqt.jpg)</div><strong>NAME:</strong>Albion<br/><strong>DAY:</strong>June 15th, 2021, Morning<br/><strong>LOCATION:</strong>Beauty Salon -> Mall<br/><strong>TAGGING:</strong>Nerissa, Lily, Kevin, Toshiro<br/><strong>EXTRA:</strong>Back on track<br/><strong>WEARING:</strong>Dressed minus blazer<br/><br/><hr/><br/>"I second the photograph, if only because I can just imagine being berated by the subject of the photograph instead of actually hearing it. Though I bet she'd probably look good in it regardless, she's got her charms, even if her behavior tends to speak otherwise." Albion couldn't help but throw a few barbs at Lily, knowing full well she could trade them with the greatest of ease. "Hey, the slinky comment was supposed to be a secret, don't go parading it... But yes, my tastes err on the more exotic, so if the outfit can wow me, I approve." The man mused with a shrug. He was, however, curious enough to consider how she managed to date before being brought in by SOPHE... Maybe she had a healthier social life back then?<br/><br/>Nerissa, meanwhile, sounded all too pleased to let him know his blazer would be held hostage while she gave him a handbag to carry his essentials..  A thought that made his brow quirk. "... At least make it a bag with a strap, carrying around a gun that looks like a bastardization of the Model 500 in a handbag is going to get real tiring." He felt if he had to put up with a hostage situation like this, he was going to set some of the terms himself. Plus, now Toshiro and Kevin could see what kind of unfortunate situation he got himself involved with... He couldn't wait to hear what kind of comments everyone else had. (Spoilers: He really could wait).<br/><br/>At Nerissa's comment about dating, he shook his head. "Oh, it's for people, that's all... I avoid dating coworkers because it would just make the work relationship awkward." It was a simple justification, but the actual truth ran deeper than that for more personal reasons, reasons that would not be explained.<br/><br/>Toshiro, at least, seemed like he had fun when he displayed his figure to them. He remembered Toshiro had a habit of collecting things like that, but he couldn't imagine how many the man had in his room. Where did he find the space for all them...? "All our time was spent at the salon... Nerissa seems to have a real good idea of what we're all going to wear though, which saves us a good bit of time." He sighed, rubbing the back of his head. Women's clothes were definitely not his forte. When Toshiro began to point out the changes, Albion groaned. "I<em>don't</em>, this was Neri's idea to get some more heat where Lily and Mal are going to be. That way if things go awry, I can start blasting from up close rather than needing to wade through crowds." He seemed to be reaching to justify his present state.<br/><br/>By the grace of the Gods, Kevin's remarks had been the least offensive to his sensibilities, though it was rare to hear the man speak in any tone but a stoic one... His comment had just about caught him off-guard, but his hand gently moved to Kevin's shoulder with all the urgency of a man warning another about horrors witnessed. "The things they did to me in there should not be experienced by an average man. Never, ever, show weakness in the face of the fairer sex, soldier. They smell blood a mile away..." he warned the man. Lily and Nerissa were just too much of a force together, and they could focus the full range of their chaotic energies on Alby solely during the Beauty Salon moment.<br/><br/>Speaking if Lily, he blinked as she easy taking out her laptop, dead set on sending a PA. "Ah, hey, that can't be safe. Or legal for that matter. You sure you really want to do that here?" He asked, but somewhere through 'that can't be safe', she was already in the process of getting her weapon of mass destruction prepared and likely couldn't hear all of him.
