DUTCH TREAT AND RUSSIAN TEA
TYTAN:
*Having not unpacked her things in her new room here at the
American base yet. Only arriving late last night after her daily
workout. She wanders around the room in her underwear, it being
the only time she ever really wears it. Other than that, the
spandex outfit she has to squeeze into doesn`t allow for it.
Putting a few things here and there away. Setting some of her
personal knick knacks up around the room. She goes to the
showering area and throws her personal effects into the
showerbasin where they belong. Afterwards, she walks back into
her room proper. Stepping out of her underclothes and taking up
one of her uniforms. Sliding it on over her feet, and wiggling
over her hips. She raises it up over her chest with a slight bit
of effort. She`d kill METALLIC for doing this to her uniforms,
she knew it was him. Sliding her gloves on she heads for the rec
center. Figureing to get a little workout while she`s waiting for
her first orders. Walking into the room and going to the free
wieghts, which she knows will prove no challenge for her. Putting
as much wieght as the bar can handle on it. The lying down and
taking it from the iron bench. Starting to push out the bar a
little. It being absolutely no weight at all to her. And she`s
got well over a thousand pounds on the GUARDs special material
bar.*
VIRUS:
*the Dutchman didn`t like weights... he spent /far/ more time at
the library... unfortunately enough, the library wasn`t a great
place to meet people.... which meant he was forced to spend at
least /some/ time in the weight room... but this time, as he
entered, and saw Tytan... his eyes literally bulged..... a soft
murmur* I didn`t think woman like that were /real/....
TYTAN:
*She doesn`t hear him. though she does see him from the corner of
her eyes. Looking over at him as she continues to easily push the
bar up and down. It not even looking like she`s having any real
effort of it. She places the bar back in the holder on the bench,
then sits up. Stretching her hands far above her head with her
back to VIRUS, afterwards bringing them down into a flexing pose
to evaluate herself as she looks at her arms. Standing up, she
walks over to the curling bar, bending over to put some weights
on it. Again, well over a thousand pounds on the bars ends. Then
she stands there and pulls it up to her chest with one hand only.
Curling it as one would a dumbell. Watching herself in the mirror
as it lowers, and then comes back up to touch her chest. Looking
in the mirror at VIRUS for a moment, she flashes a slight smile.
Then wipes a stray strand of hair away from her ear. she`d not
met many of the HUNTERs here since she just arrived, and the only
one she did meet was a rather cold woman.*
VIRUS:
*reminding himself that she was almost certainly a superior..
most were for the young man after all... and if not that, then a
co-worker... neither which encouraged too much drooling over
here.... he shook his head, trying to control himself...*
TYTAN:
*She lets the curling bar fall to the ground from her hand
slowly. A slightly loud sound coming from the wieghts as a
result. A testament to how much she`d just lifted. Brushing a few
more stray strands of hair from her face. She turns towards
VIRUS, seeing him shakeing his head slowly and with a rather pale
look on his face. Slowly walking towards him, all 6`2 of her, she
stops right in front of him, looking down to him as she did most
people(Unless he`s actually taller or equal to her in which case
simply amend in your mind.*G*). Still smiling at him
slightly.*[In Russian] Why are you looking at me the way you are.
Havn`t you seen anyone lift wieghts before?]*The smile never
leaving her face. She`s just a rookie like him. Even though she`s
already got a couple of catches under her belt.*
VIRUS:
*he was tall... although not overly tall for a male, only about
6`1... but the Russian voice and accent... even if the words
weren`t recognisable... the Dutch had lived in the spectre of the
Iron Curtain of Stalin`s Russia at the end of WWII... though they
had never fallen, all Dutch were brought up with a healthy
respect... and fear of the Russians... and he shook his head
firmly*
TYTAN:
*She`s still smiling slightly. Though she`d hoped that somone
else besides VENIN might know her home language. Biting her lip
for a moment, a struggling look coming over her face as she
searches for the words.* A...aaare you a hhhhhunter
tooo?*Manageing to only sound slightly pathetic at the butchered
english. Not knowing why he shakes his head. She tries smiling
again. Trying to be pleasent for her budding new relationships
here. Not having any friends at this base that she knew of.*
VIRUS:
*he murmured in Dutch for a moment* Russian Bitch. *before
reverting to English, and speaking so as to be heard.... her race
wasn`t her /fault/ after all... and Stalin was a long time ago...
the USSR had collapsed... Russia was no longer Communist...* That
would depend on how you define hunter. *he didn`t laugh at her
for her struggling English... and he still spoke with a very
strong Dutch accent
TYTAN:
*Wondering what he said, she knew he was DUTCH now. She`d heard
it a few times but never learned any of it. And it`s not like
she`d hurt his people at all, she was simply a townsmans daughter
until her powers broke loose of their shell. She sees the smile
she`s giving him isn`t really brightening his mood at all. Her
face growing a slight sad from the forceful tone of his voice.
Maybe everyone at this base WAS the same.* Vee are alll heeerre
for reason.*Sturggling still, sure she would never master the
englese difficult language with all it`s rules and metaphores.
She sighs slightly, blowing some of the slight perfume she weares
his way. Taking another step towards him, her chest nearly
touching his as she looks right into his eyes. A wondering
kindness being all that shows in hers. Worrying her bottom lip a
little bit.* Yoooou Dutch...?*The question innocent. Trying to
simply make a friend who seemed close to her own homeland.*
VIRUS:
*maybe he was wrong... he knew his history, that much was
true.... but still, was it that much out of the question that
this one... a /young/ woman... had nothing to do with it... he
gave a quiet smile... perhaps he could give her the benefit of
the doubt... though he still took a step back* I`m Dutch yes...
*he inquired gently* Are there any other languages that you know
better than English? *he wasn`t being rude... just if there was a
language they had in common...*
TYTAN:
*She`d no knowledge of what her country had done to his. Very
unknowledgeable in the ways of how the world works even now. A
small town girl she was born and a small town girl she would have
stayed had her powers not dictated otherwise. If she`d not had
them then the general would have taken his fun, taken her, and
she`d probably have returned to her everyday life. But she`d
killed him with one well placed smack. His smile bolsters her
esteem a little, hers growing a bit wider on her face as she
continues to stare at him, her green eyes having been found to be
disquieting to many of the men in her village. Worrying her hair
away from her hair again, somthing she always did when she was a
bit nervous, she stows it behind her ear again. As to his
inquiry, her eyes seem to search about the room for a moment as
the english registers in her mind. Opening her mouth to form a
few words, pink lips parting for a moment before she closes them
again. Just shaking her head sadly.* Niet...
VIRUS:
*he shook his head quietly, a bit disappointed for her... it was
very hard to survive in a foreign country, only knowing /well/
your native tongue... he was lucky, all Dutchman were taught both
Dutch and English... and he himself knew German as well* I`m
sorry... the names Johann... *putting out his hand*
TYTAN:
*She looks down at his hand after he tells her his name.
Wondering if she should try to take it. The last time she`d tried
something like this she broke the person hand. She simply didn`t
have control of her muscles that well. Always having to
concentrate on the way she did things. Her smile disappearing
slowly, she reaches for his hand tentatively. Grasping it as slow
as she can, her grip vice like, and the strain of her
concentration for a grip that /LIGHT/ showing easilly on her
face. Hoping he wouldn`t take this badly..* Natallia...*The grip
getting a little tighter then she releases, huffing and puffing,
looking a bit ashamed. She`d felt bones in his hand start to go,
that`s why she had to stop.* Iiii....sssorrry.*Clenching her hand
a few times to accentuate her point.*Tiiiis diiificult.*Still
struggling with the words, wondering why she was transfered to a
base where speaking only russian would get her nowhere. At least
in France most of the people knew her language at that base. She
stands straight up to him again. Raising a hand to his face, not
touching him, this somthing most women from her village did to
say they were sorry. And besides, he`s a slight bit cute.
Reverting to her own language for a moment.*[Were that we could
meet and speak alike.]*She always had a way of making everything
she says sound beautiful..*
VIRUS:
*the Dutchman grimaced slightly at the grip.. hell she was
/strong/..* It`s... okay.. *shaking his hand to try to get
feeling back into it*
TYTAN:
*She stands there watching him for a moment. Wondering if she
should walk him to the infirmary to have his hand looked at.
Sighing slightly to herself. She drops her hand slowly from his
face. Wondering what to say to her new friend.* Vhaaat do theeey
call you heeeere?*She looks down to herself, figuring to turn the
conversation a little lighter.* I sveeear thaaat they shriiink my
outfiiiit on purpose.*Looking at it rather slyly.*
VIRUS:
*he coughed slightly as he looked at her outfit* Well you can`t
blame them.. *then he coughed again* I`m usually called Johann...
though every now and then Virus... *actually, Venin had been the
only one to call him that so far...*
TYTAN:
*She looks up at him slightly. Not many men had been as outright
as that with her. They were usually afraid she`d twist thier
heads off. Even the Techs kept thier leering eyes slightly
averted when she looked at them. She always thought it was funny
that her mere physical power could command such fear from people.
But she`d never been given such a compliment before. And she
finds that she rather likes it.* I caaaan`t?*Smiling sweetly. She
sticks her hands behind her back, figuring to give him perhaps a
little more of a view, pulling her shoulders back, which of
course props her chest upwards a slight bit. Looking away from
him towards the ceiling to perhaps take some of his apprehension
away.* Yoooouu reaally like the looks of thiiiis
Johaaaaan?*Accentuating his name sweetly. Prefering not to call
him VIRUS. Figuring he`d probably look her other name up later,
or ask her when he was ready. Never volunteering information.*
VIRUS:
*he figured that she probably wouldn`t kill him... now if he`d
met her /outside/ here... that was a different story... besides,
if she did try to kill him, he thought a near-death experience
might help him get his /other/ powers... the ones that people
just thought he might be able to do... working.... his eyes
widening at her* err... you could say I liked the looks of
that... *for himself, he felt that whatever name they gave...
that`s the name they wanted to be known as... and the name he`d
use..*
TYTAN:
*She lowers her face to meet his eyes again. The grin not leaving
her face even for a split second. Eyes boring into his as she
takes a step closer to him. Quirking her head to one side, her
hair framing her shoulders a bit with the movment. Bringing
herself as close to him as she possibly can without him hitting a
wall behind him.* Goooood...*She wouldn`t try to kill him for
complimenting her, and she`d return the favour in kind.* I
too...*She looks him over slowly.* Liiiike whaaat I see..*Smiling
at him wickedly..* I`m glad we`ve met Johaaaan. Perrrhaaaps we
caaaan /pump/ some exercise out together sometime..*Being playful
with him, and hoping he knows that she`s just being playful and
not totally serious.*
VIRUS:
*he looks a bit nervous with her /that/ close to him...* You?
Like what you see? *he gave a laugh.. he was lanky... very
lanky... he`d often been told how he was so /ugly/... and then at
her words her spluttered... sure, he knew she was being
playful... but still!*
TYTAN:
*She keeps backing him up until he hits the wall with his
shoulders. Keeping close to him, she`d found it sweet to get a
slight compliment that was so blunt from anyone. Ugliness is a
point of view, now the general.... he was ugly. His sputtering
draws a smile to her face as she places a hand beside each of his
shoulders against the wall. Effectivley boxing him in.* Vhaaaat?
You haaaaave problem wiiiith me...../pumping/....steel. Wiiiiith
yooou?*She knew she was sending him into a bit of overload here.
And she knew she was being a bit of a tease. But, as far as she
knew, she`d never be able to have a man anyway. After all, who
wants a woman who can snap you in half with one squeeze of her
legs. Or crush you during that most tender moment. Her face grows
a little sad thinking about it..*
VIRUS:
*he spluttered slightly* I... aaah... I have to go Natallia.. I
have aah... some things to do... *some things to research... some
things to master...*
TYTAN:
*she watches as he pretty much bolts away from him. Smileing at
his back and shaking her head. She wanders back over to the
exercise machines and starts back with her workout.*
