How convenient. This little city of kidnapped quaintness came with pre-assigned rooms? If there was ever a sign that someone brought her here knowingly, that was. Hell, her name was on the door - something she discovered after coming in through the window and climbing out of her hardsuit. Maneuvering the thing into the closet and stashing the battery and the backups she was carrying in separate places was harder than she thought and she found herself wishing she had the equipment Nigel kept in the pit below Sylia's shop in that room. But, she couldn't stay in the hardsuit forever, even if she did have three extra batteries. ...they weren't supposed to be for her, though. She'd been taking them to Nene, Linna, and Sylia when she blacked out, landed in a library, and was pushed down a set of marble steps by suits of tin she should have been able to pummel without breaking a sweat while in her hardsuit, yet hadn't...

"That's one dilemma among many," Priss muttered to herself, frowning at her name on the golden plate below the room number. "It's like a prison." She looked down at her attire, frowning again at realizing she was wearing her skinsuit, covered only by a bathrobe she'd found on the back of the bathroom door. "Or a mental institution."

Pulling the robe tightly around her, Priss moved out of the apartment building and began wandering the streets, hoping to find a clothing shop with something sensible for her to wear. She'd rather stay in the skinsuit and bathrobe than wear anything in Sylia's shop. Screw that.

That slender blonde looked highly unamused at that moment in time, the general tic that gave off her irritation was the flipping of a knife up and down. her eyes focused on it, every now and again straying to the ivy that had been carved into her wrist. She stared at that for a moment before continuing to flip the knife up and down.

In general, Sarah hid as many weapons on her body as one outfit could hide. It was a layover of who she had been before and who, in part, she still was. She would always be a Hunter. She would always be Sarah Tigress Vida, daughter of Macht. No one could take that from her and if someone crossed her wrong, like those damn tin suits again, she was going to lose it.

At that moment, her gaze flicked to the other female and she sighed. Great, another one. "You look about as lost as I feel." She said after a hesitation and then put the knife away to offer her hand. "Sarah Tigress Vida. Just..call me Sarah."

If it weren't for the fact that Priss had been expecting odd comments thanks to the skinsuit she wore - and she suddenly found herself thanking Nigel for making it so they had to wear these in order for the suits' pluming to work, for she'd feared having to be naked inside them when she'd initially seen how tight of a squeeze it was within the suits' interiors - with the bathrobe like a jacket, Priss would have turned around and verbally assaulted the strange, blonde girl. But, given the current situation and her state, the Knight Saber held her tongue and turned around, doing her best to keep the temper and less-than-pleasant attitude she was renown for back in Tokyo in check.

"Well, not many people seem to be otherwise," she replied.

Priss eyed the hand, resisting the urge to scoff and put her own in the girl's, "Priss Asagiri," and gave it a good shake before reclaiming her hand. No need to offer up Priscilla. She hated that name anyway.

She snorted a little bit and crossed her arms over her chest after the two of them introduced each other. She glanced her up and down for a moment, frowning.

"Do I want to know about the bathrobe, Priss? And it's nice to meet you." She glared up at the sky, tucking that white hair back behind her ear again. Okay, it wasn't white..just..whiteish. She glanced her up and down again then sighed.

She shook her head and held up her hand. "Sorry. My mouth runs away with me. I'm mouthy, I'm bitchy, and right now? I'm worried. I've got friends back home who're counting on me to be there and now I'm not."

Priss also found herself grateful Linna and Nene weren't with her, for those two were likely to spit out something that would give them away. They were horrible at cover stories. And Sylia was likely to just glare, spit out an insult, and continue on her merry way. As much as Priss often used that tactic herself, she wasn't seeing the need for it in this situation and didn't, most of all, want to give herself away as the girl beneath the blue suit of armor that showed up earlier. So, she quickly formulated an excuse in her head before speaking.

"Likewise, and this is just to cover what I showed up in. Was in the middle of a costume change at a show and whoever's responsible for this crap didn't exactly give me time to finish getting changed. Actually hoping to find something more appropriate to wear so I'm not stuck in a leotard and a bathrobe during this visit. You haven't seen a bank anywhere, have you?"

The younger girl shrugged. "Bitchy?" She scoffed. "That's how people usually describe me. I'm not a hypocrite, so you'll find no complaints from me. Everyone wants to get back home. Too bad we ain't got a way to do that."

Oh, the woman could spit out an insult and Sarah would return in kind. Generally, after that point? Insults and the like turned into throwing fists. And on a general basis, against a normal human or a bunch of tin cans? Sarah had an upper advantage. But these tin cans? Not so much.

"Ah. No, I haven't seen a bank anywhere..but if you want, I've got a couple of spare pair of clothes. They might be a little big on you though." She shrugged a bit and pointed at the knife she'd just put back on her hip. "I generally wear an outfit that can hide as many weapons as possible." At least she was honest about that. "I've got my reasons for it."

Snorting in amusement, she looked at her and shrugged herself. "I've a right to be after everything I've been through. And I already hate this blasted place."

The singer wasn't sure if she would be insulted or not should Sarah grouped her into the tin can category, should the blonde ever see her hardsuit while she was in the guise of the Blue Knight Saber, but supposed they'd been labeled worse than tin cans by the media and the AD Police. Terrorists, namely. She mentally laughed at that. If anyone was a terrorist, it was Genom for continuing to spit out rogue boomers in the first place. If it weren't for them, the Knight Sabers wouldn't be needed.

Too bad she wouldn't be earning herself a steady, fat paycheck for kicking the crap out of boomers and smashing their cores here. Unfortunately for her, Sylia and the money she had banked from her father's ventures didn't exist here. Just the measly $100 that this PDA provided her with.

Which was still creepy.

"Obviously, I'm not armed. Not much to hide in this thing. Just makes changing in and out of costumes easier." Sarah had no idea how easy. "I just want some pants and a shirt and a comfortable pair of shoes and I'll be happy."

She fished the PDA out of the pocket of the bathrobe, turned it on and held it up for Sarah to see with the screen facing the other girl. "Says here I have money to my name, just have to find a bank to collect it. Problem is--" She turned off the device and returned it to the pocket. "--I can't seem to find one of those."

Priss sighed. First person she meets in this place and the girl's got Linna's spunk and Nene's mouth with a dash of Sylia's attitude. Go Figure. "This place has post-quake Tokyo looking homely 'bout now."

Well, Sarah wouldn't be insulted. It wasn't like she meant Priss exactly. She meant those bastards who had manhandled them. If she hadn't been who and what she was, she would've been sorely injured.

She cocked her head off to one side, watching her for a few minutes and then grinned at the mention of her not being armed. "Obviously. I'd have been able to pinpoint any guns in that outfit in a second flat." She shrugged slightly. "Come on, I've probably got some of that." She turned to start walking, scooping up her backpack. "It'll be easier if you change inside a place."

"Yeah, I couldn't find it either. And I'm great at hunting shit down. That crap gets pretty hard."

She looked at her for a moment, a brief smile on her lips. "This place makes my mother trying to kill me look homely."

If it weren't for the fact that Priss was keen on continuing to keep her identity as one of the Knight Sabers a secret in this city, she would have snorted indignantly and proclaimed that Sarah had nothing to complain about, as she didn't have the whole AD Police ward trying to kill her on a daily basis. It seemed that everytime a boomer went rogue and the AD Police showed up, they cared more about putting bullets in their backs than taking out the boomer. Priority issues, much?

"If it's no trouble," Priss said after a moment, always awkward with accepting help from others, but honestly, if it got her out of this skinsuit? She'd take it.

	Sarah had been dealing with one form of another of people trying to kill her throughout her whole life. Now made it no different. She shrugged a little bit and slid her arms about herself, watching the female carefully. Those sapphire eyes gave away nothing, nothing at all except a touch of wariness. "It won't be." She replied and started for her place. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Alright then," Priss said, swallowing the last of her pride and telling herself that this would be much easier than finding a bank and then locating a clothing store. "Thanks," she added on, following Sarah back to the apartments. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She headed into her room and tossed her a pair of jeans, a t-shirt and a pair of shoes. "There you are. Bathroom is that way." And pointed towards it with a faint smile. "Sorry for the abruptness..just a habit." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Priss picked up the clothes and oddly enough, actually offered the other girl the smallest hint of a smile. It wasn't out of character for her to be so pleasant with someone right-off-the-bat, just odd. Rare. Something that didn't happen most of the time.

This girl just didn't push her buttons the way that Linna and Nene did. Thank God.

"Actually, I appreciate it. It's to the point. Not a time-waster myself, either," and with that she ducked into the bathroom and changed. Getting out of the skinsuit was second nature by now, so soon enough, she emerged, now properly clothed.

She had both the robe and the skinsuit in hand still, however, as the robe might come in handy later and there was no way in hell she was going to discard the skinsuit--she wouldn't be able to work her hardsuit without it.

Flashing her a smile after she had got dressed, Sarah leaned back against the wall as she started flipping one of her knives up and down idly. She missed her other two --- Nikolas still had them. They hadn't got to any other part of their entertainment or their night of fun, but he had got two of her knives off of her.

"Eh, it's a habit. I don't like messing around or playing games. Unless those games involve Nikolas and Kristopoher, but those are different kinds of games. I don't beat around the bush that often." She shrugged slightly and flashed a smile at her.
