now I ain't sayin she a gold digger [CLOSED]
Who: Diva (
madamemoiselle) & Cheriour (
clockeyes)
What: Cheriour wanders into a cute bakery, but one of the employees is a surprise.
When: Day 60
Where: A random NPC bakery in Freyr
Rating: PG-13 for Diva... Just being herself...
[In a way, it was mostly to prove to Claire that she wasn't so sheltered, thank you very much. Her idea of helping Carl buy them a house played a part too, but it was still mostly a matter of injured pride.
Of course, getting a job through flirtation and manipulation didn't exactly disprove Claire's point, but that was lost on Diva. As she saw it, she had gotten a job, and that was therefore good enough. She frequented the bakery in Freyr almost daily, so it was easy enough to just play up her charm until the owner, who she had given a face and name, conceded and gave her a simple job behind the counter. It was easy, and she'd only been working it for a few days (since she had sung for the network), but she didn't mind it.
After all, her Grigori was perfectly happy to just let her read and be charming to the customers, occasionally ringing up their orders or delivering them. Her face and charm alone drew his admiration, as well as quite a few more customers.]

I can get hurt, yes. But I will never allow them to be. But you wouldn't understand that sort of devotion, would you?
no subject
A little while ago, I would have said "no" and it would have been honest! I've received that devotion enough times, but never given it. I never needed to.
[There's a softness in her words and expression] But humans, they're really fragile, aren't they? So I want to protect him if I can, because I can stand pain and dying a lot more easily. I never needed to do that for my Chevalier, because they were just as strong as me. It didn't matter.
no subject
[He lets out a short laugh, folding his arms.] They aren't as fragile as you think, miss. And really, it just sounds to me like you're keeping him intact like an heirloom. He's so pretty and fragile that you have to put him in a cabinet so that no one can touch him.
Isn't that a bit selfish, don't you think? You're just doing it because he pleases you, you don't care what he thinks of the whole situation, do you?
no subject
Ah... That's selfish? I don't understand. Why is it bad for me to want him to stay safe?
[She won't mention that there really is a good basis for this, with how much Johan gets beaten up, but she is genuinely confused by the idea.]
no subject
[He's really testing the waters with this, trying to understand their relationship a bit better. Is it one-sided? Or are both in cahoots with one another?]
Besides me, who are you protecting him from? Or am I really the only threat to his existence around here?
no subject
Ugh, before you did, he was going to kill me too, but I think mostly for fun. You know, actually, not even twelve hours after you killed me, he strangled me! That's just not fair. He's rude!
[sorry cheriour, she's stuck on hating claire now]
no subject
[He looks intrigued by the thought that there's a person out there who seems to hate Diva as much as he does. PERHAPS THEY COULD JOIN FORCES if it wasn't for the fact, that you know, CLAIRE FREAKIN' WANTS TO HAVE THE SILLIEST FIGHT EVER DUE TO HIM WORKING FOR DIVA.]
Who is he?
no subject
[yeah you... keep telling yourself that, diva...]
I think he would probably kill you for fun anyways, so I'm going you a favor.
no subject
[He lets out a scoff.]
Nice, another little heirloom to add to your collection! And is he really that violent? And here I was thinking you were the one he was primarily concerned with.
no subject
[There's the implication there that she had thought about it, of course.]
It's just better for me if he likes me. He... [frowns] He definitely doesn't think of me as a threat, but... I guess that's better for me. Even if it's annoying, because he's wrong!
[She makes a huffy noise] I wouldn't want him in my collection anyways. I'd kill him if I could.
