~the previous day~

Claire had agreed to what she had been saying, but she said it much better than Sam had. She made it sound more logical, straight forward, and important. Everyone seemed to agree with what she had to say, knowing the dire nature of the situation. The woman concluded by giving everyone her phone number, and Sam eagerly and happily received it. The moment she had been given it, she had begun punching it into her phone. It was as she was doing this, that Artemis began finishing up, explaining the game plan. She even offered people to stay at her place. As much as a super power sleepover sounded amazing, she wasn't quite sure how much she wanted to have to socialize. Sam wasn't sure how close she wanted to get with these people and she just was a bit weird with people being in her personal bubble like that. "A rad sleepover sounds pretty awesome, but I'm gonna have to pass. Got work." Sam said, ending by sticking her tongue out and throwing her eyes upward to show a comical disgusted expression. Also, it was entirely true. There was no rest for the wicked as a club bartender and that meant that sleepovers (which were obviously at night) conflicted with her job schedule.

"Anyway," she continued, "I'mma catch you cool cats tomorrow." She said, dejecting herself from the conversation swinging her leg around to make her way to her beat up Jeep she named "The White Supremacy" (Whitey or Supreme for short) for its faded and chipped, white paint job. She had asked a friend of her's what she should name it while he was high and he had given the odd name that had stuck. She flung herself in, turned the key, and made her way home to chill before work.

~the next day~

Samantha strutted across the cracked concrete knowing she looked like a 10. Knowing she was going to have to socialize, the woman had committed herself to looking nice. Now, this didn't mean subjecting herself to a dress or any variety of bright pastels; oh no, she had her own style. The shiny, leather (slightly) heeled combat boots clunked along the way. The footwear fed up into some black lace with a scull and rose design, stretching over her legs which led up into a skirt. This skirt was short, white, and flowy with black, upside down crosses on it. Sam also wore a black, crop top bustier with small straps which were covered by a black, leather jacket that hugged snuggly against her. Not to mention her extravagant, black and white makeup was on point. The artistry made her eyes look piercing and her contouring made her sharp facial features even sharper.

She was determined to make an impression on this potential League of Legends and she wanted to make it known that she was not someone to be messed with or overlooked. However, if she was being honest, she just wanted to look sexy today for no real reason. The attire provided her with a boost of confidence she needed in confronting this somewhat sketchy situation of seeing that creepy guy who was hoping to gather them all together.

The woman went up to the house of the address and found Artemis there, ringing the doorbell. Sam lengthened her stride and waved at Artemis. "Hey, looks like we both got here at the same time!" Sam paused, looking at the door challengingly, "You ready for this?"



Sam appreciates this post! (She is punk, not goth! Though it's fun to see people not see the distinction. XD)
I'm pretty good with fast forwarding. Just say that everyone got each other's numbers and went their ways with the idea of contacting each other the next day to go to the place on the card as a group.

Artemis came up behind her and seemed to be backing her up. Even though they had just met, it was clear that Artemis was up for standing up for Sam. It was nice! She couldn't remember the last time she had anyone who would do that for her. Most of her friends were coworkers from the club she worked at (as a bartender), some regulars at said club, and some people she knew back in her wild years (not that she wasn't still wild) who had not really been great friends anyway. Sam wasn't really one for getting out there and socializing on her own, one for having such a bad temper and two for the fact that she could sometimes be awkward. With this, Sam looked up at Artemis with a faint look of gratitude and then swiveled her head back to the creepy man with a more pressing, challenging expression.

The man's next words seemed to show he was annoyed by how she had reacted, firstly for being called creepy (which, yeah, he was for weirdly going up to people and giving them cryptic messages and a card!) and secondly for not answering the question. She supposed he was right. It was commonly known that one wasn't ever supposed to answer a question with another question. It was considered rude. However, when did Sam ever give a single fuck about niceties? Never. Still, it made her annoyed at how slippery his words came out as if what he was saying was disarming the attack that she had sent. He was probably the kind of guy who thought he was oh so clever. She hated people who thought they were smarter than her.

He went on to talk about how tenuous the situation was and Sam knew what he was saying was true, though she didn't want to admit it. Still, the way he kept on saying 'we' and 'us'. The whole speech was so dripping with ethos she couldn't help but feel like she was being manipulated. The way he spoke was how politicians spoke. In the end, she knew what he was saying was true, but the way he said it made her even more suspicious than before. He said that they could come if they wanted or not, and left. She was half tempted to call after him and try to get him to explain himself, particularly what 'we' was supposed to mean, but she just glared after the man until he was out of sight.

Sam finally turned back to Artemis and, to her surprise, Leo. Leo echoed her thoughts in her skepticism of the situation. He made the point that it would make things complicated, but concluded it was there decision. Leo finished it with acknowledging the struggle of the situation. Sam nodded, "Honestly, I'm not sure about them either. I mean, what did he mean by 'we'?" She looked at the two of them as if hoping for an exclamation. "For all we know, he could be part of the FBI. If they get us they could imprison us, or worse; maybe even try to dissect us or something." She sighed, still hoping for answers. "I'm not scared or whatever. Maybe we should go. But if we do, we should do it together so if they pull something we'll be stronger in numbers."

Honestly, I'm having a hard time finishing things off. I guess when we switch things I'll just go with it, but I don't know how to conclude.
Will those having been given a card be assumed to be meeting up the next day or will there be some kind of special event?
Mine is Kiroue on League as well as here.

Going back a little bit, before she left to go to her seat, she was happy to see Claire pleased by her gift of a jacket. It looked a little odd on the other woman; a bit too big and a bit too punk for the girl, but she still made it look cute. Sam nodded her head at the promise the little bird woman said, not really worrying about it too much. She really liked that jacket, and thus expected it back, but she felt she could trust the woman to return it.

It was then that the cute woman said, 'you're really hot you know.' Sam had heard the same words spoken to her earlier that day by Leo the Lion and had took it with great insult, but when Claire said it, it was different. Sam, not knowing the context, blinked in surprise and the grunge woman felt a blush come to her cheeks. She was flattered, but she couldn't tell if the woman was compliamenting her or... flirting with her? If it was flirting, she was surprised! Sam wouldn't have taken this little woman to be so up front in flirty matters. She was a bit shocked and a little embarrassed (some really tender emotions coming from this usually hardened woman). However, it was then that the context was introduced and that Claire was simply stating that Sam was emanating a great deal of heat. In fact, this heat was apparently very uncomfortable for her. Oh. Well... honestly she should have been expecting that. How could she have been so childish to take it that way? The blush quickly faded back and Sam tried to gain her composure, hoping that Claire hadn't noticed. She tried to shake it off with a casual, "Oh, that's interesting. Didn't know that." With that she had walked away.

Now, sitting on the bench outside she thought back at how she had made a blushing fool of herself and she couldn't help but laugh at herself. You're a real odd ball, she thought to herself, still amused by how silly the situation had been. Claire probably hadn't noticed anything, but to Sam it had felt so apparent and so silly, like her slipping on a banana. She wasn't really the best with social situations and that kinda went to prove that point!

As she mused around, a sharp 'Yo!' broke through her thoughts. A man started to trot to her. Sam inwardly groaned to herself, as she was not interested in striking up a conversation. The man took his seat with her on the bench and struck up some small talk about the depressing nature of the death of the man in the cafe. How he couldn't believe it could happen... yada yada yada, blah blah blah. It was sad that the man was using a man's death to try to break the ice with her. It was so clear that talking about what had transpired was the least the man was interested in doing. It just sounded like the prologue that you scan over, but you basically skip at the start of a book. Just formalities leading up to what he really wanted to say. However, what he said next was the last thing that she had expected.

Up to that point she had been showing a blank, unamused expression to the man, hoping he would catch the hint, but when he leaned over (an action that she had reacted to with an expression of offended confusion) her face melded into one of careful knowing. It was now that she finally looked at the man, her eyes narrowing slightly as she finally absorbed his appearance. She recognized him! "Wait a sec. You're the creepy guy who handed out those cards, aren't you?" Sam's body leaned away from the man, now very uncomfortable and suspicious. "Who are you and what's your deal, man?" This whole power thing was new to her and she was unaware of who was in the club, who was not in the club, and who was an enemy. This guy could thus either be a fellow Champion being, someone who had seen her playing League and just simply wanted to know what champion she played, or it could be an enemy (like maybe he was an FBI agent who would abduct her and let the government do some weird shit to her). She couldn't be too careful. Sam wanted to know everything was safe before she went about assuming and revealing precious information.

Oooh! We do need a villain! (Will it be Baron, but in human form?! :O)
