[b]Snow:[/b] "Racism?" [b]Star: [/b]"Are cyborgs considered a race?"
-
[i]"I guess so. People will call you tin can and even -blam!-ing try and murder you. We're like historical blacks." [/i]
-
[b]Snow: [/b]"Ouch." [b]Star: [/b]"That sounds awful. I'm sorry for how people treat you, JT. You seem to be a really nice guy."
-
[i]"Oh it's cool, most places are pretty accepting. Only issue is from age 1 to 24, cybernetics of any form were illegal in my city so we had to hide shit."[/i]
-
[b]Star: [/b]"Huh." [b]Snow: [/b]"I feel like having some augs of my own would be pretty awesome."
-
[i]"Shit fam, I sell them."[/i]
-
[b]Snow: [/b]"Swee-!" [b]Star:[/b] "Too bad for Snow, she can't do that kind of stuff to her body and keep the hammers...but I could totally use an aug to shoot better." [i]Snow gets a disappointed look.[/i]
-
[i]"See, I can always find a way to make the aug into a piece of gear."[/i]
-
[b]Snow: [/b]"So I can get some awesome gear then?!" [i]Star now looks disappointed, she mumbles.[/i] [b] Star:[/b] "I was trying to get us some privacy...."
-
[i]"Snow, meet me at my clinic. I'll be there in an hour, I've got a promise for Star to keep." [/i]
-
[i]Star smirks and Snow rolls her eyes.[/i] [b] Snow:[/b] "Star, you can't be serious." [b]Star:[/b] "I am! I get to have some fun..." [b]Snow: [/b]"I wish I lied about my age again then at least I could follow."
-
[i]"...Say a word and I'll kill you Snow." [/i] [spoiler]Dead serious. I hope you were honest when you said she was a week away from 18. [/spoiler]
-
[i]Snow smiles wide and laughs.[/i] [b]Snow:[/b] "Hell yeah!...I mean no. I won't tell anyone!" [b]Star:[/b] "Wha-..." [i] It's obvious to JT that Star is in complete panic mode inside her head as she starts to hyperventilate a little.[/i]
-
[i]"You okay Star?"[/i]
-
[i]Star quickly nods and fakes a smile.[/i] [b]Star:[/b] "Y-Yeah! Totally!" [b]Snow: [/b]"Star, this is great! Maybe I can show you a thing or two..." [i]Snow jokes, not noticing Star's panic.[/i]
-
[i]"Star we can do this one at a time if you want? I'll take you first and Snow at the clinic?" [/i]
-
[i]Star smiles at the idea and nods.[/i] [b]Star: [/b]"Y-Yeah! I just d-don't feel comfortable seeing my best friend...ya know." [b]Snow:[/b] "We've seen each other naked on a lot of occasions, Star. What's different about this?" [b] Star:[/b] "We'll be...y'know..." [i]Snow sighs and rolls her eyes.[/i] [b]Snow: [/b]"Fine. You go first."
-
[i]"Cool, see you in an hour, aight Snow?"[/i]
-
[b]Snow: [/b]"Yeah, see ya then. Have fun, Star. JT, if you force her into anything I'll beat your *ss." [b]Star:[/b] "Thanks, Snow."
-
[i]"Wouldn't dream of it, Snow," JT said with a chuckle as he stood beside Star. "So, shall we start?"[/i]
-
[i]Star nods.[/i] [b] Star: [/b]"Lets get going, JT."
-
[spoiler]PM or TS? [/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]Nothing is happening, so why not keep going? I went over how Star isn't straight, right?[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]Oh ye[/spoiler] [i]JT led Star back to his place and made two coffees. "So mate, I can tell something was... Off."[/i]
-
[i]Star sighs and takes the coffee.[/i] "Sorry, but I'm not actually into you...at all." [i]She takes a sip, leaning against a wall.[/i]
