May 7th and beyond - Nailah's apartment

"Whatever it was, I'm surprised you stuck with the name."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jan 12, 2011 2:24 pm

"It seemed appropriate at the time, and as it grew more appropriate, I still didn't think there were any real consequences to keeping it."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Jan 12, 2011 2:42 pm

"I don't think the name alone is what caused those..."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jan 12, 2011 2:43 pm

"I don't either. If I did, I'd have abandoned it quite some time ago."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Jan 12, 2011 2:58 pm

"I'd imagine so."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jan 12, 2011 3:01 pm

"Though I suspect that's not quite what you meant."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Jan 12, 2011 3:03 pm

"No... Consequences or not I would have thought you'd want to, well, try and distance yourself from all of that."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jan 12, 2011 3:08 pm

"At some point it's rather hard to deny you've got a flock of invisible corvids following you around," she said a bit sadly.

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Jan 12, 2011 4:34 pm

"So you'd rather stay as positive about it as you can?" she smiles softly.

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jan 12, 2011 4:38 pm

"Certainly can't stop being what I am, I suppose."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Jan 12, 2011 5:02 pm

"I'd hope so. It's part of what makes you you."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jan 12, 2011 5:43 pm

"And that's part of it, too. When you can be anything, sometimes the answer is just 'yourself.'"

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Jan 12, 2011 6:06 pm

"And sometimes 'yourself but with sharper teeth'." she teases just a bit.

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jan 12, 2011 6:23 pm

"That's one where you've no room to talk, this time."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Jan 12, 2011 6:27 pm

"Oh but you started with that, I believe." she smirks.

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jan 12, 2011 6:28 pm

"I didn't hear any complaints..."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Wed Jan 12, 2011 6:35 pm

"I do believe complaining was the last thing on my mind at the time."

by **Samantha McManus** » Thu Jan 13, 2011 2:41 pm

Samantha just smiled.

"It's times like this that I'm reminded of why we'll be just fine, regardless of what happens."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Thu Jan 13, 2011 3:49 pm

"Because the sex is great?" she chuckles. "And yes, I know that's not what you meant." she adds, smiling softly.

by **Samantha McManus** » Thu Jan 13, 2011 4:06 pm

"Aye, more that we can be like this, even after all the oddities."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Thu Jan 13, 2011 4:43 pm

"It helps that we were a little odd to begin with."

by **Samantha McManus** » Thu Jan 13, 2011 4:46 pm

"The odds are good, but the goods are odd."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Thu Jan 20, 2011 6:21 pm

"Most of the ones at this school are to some degree." she chuckles.

by **Samantha McManus** » Thu Jan 20, 2011 6:31 pm

"So, did you see the plans we've drawn up for revamping Cerebro?"

by **Nailah Weaver** » Thu Jan 20, 2011 6:34 pm

"You only mentioned something in passing. Some kind of immersion pod?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Thu Jan 20, 2011 6:35 pm

"To overcome the issue of the dome itself accumulating psychic residue, aye."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Thu Jan 20, 2011 6:41 pm

"Of course." she says in a tone that suggest she's only following Sam to some degree. "And the pod prevents that how?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Thu Jan 20, 2011 6:43 pm

"It's an oxygenated solution saturated with nanites. They become the interface, an intermediary between the telepath and the dome itself. They can be purged as needed."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Thu Jan 20, 2011 6:46 pm

"So it's a tank that you dive into." she asks, smirking for no reason at all.

by **Samantha McManus** » Thu Jan 20, 2011 6:47 pm

"Well yes, that would be the immersion."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Thu Jan 20, 2011 6:52 pm

"I have to say, even if I don't know much about Cerebro that sounds like an excellent improvement." By now she's practically grinning.

by **Samantha McManus** » Thu Jan 20, 2011 7:00 pm

Samantha simply quirked a brow at Nailah and let that comment hang.

by **Nailah Weaver** » Thu Jan 20, 2011 7:07 pm

"What? You can't blame me for picturing you climbing out of it, can you?" she smiles 'innocently'.

by **Samantha McManus** » Thu Jan 20, 2011 7:13 pm

She chuckled.

"I rather think it won't be as good as you're imagining."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Thu Jan 20, 2011 7:17 pm

"That's a shame, because up here it's incredible." she says, tilting her head and pretending to look off into the distance.

by **Samantha McManus** » Thu Jan 20, 2011 7:23 pm

"You're not... are you?"

by **Nailah Weaver** » Thu Jan 20, 2011 7:31 pm

"No, I'm just teasing you." she smirks. "But I've seen you step out of the shower and do that hair toss and believe you me, it looks sexy even if you're not trying."

by **Samantha McManus** » Thu Jan 20, 2011 8:09 pm

"Then I'd say you rather don't need the space-age nanite tank for that, aye?" She smirked.

by **Nailah Weaver** » Thu Jan 20, 2011 8:22 pm

"Of course I don't need it but I'd still want to see it. I mean you usually don't shower in your unstable molecule suit. You can't deny there's a certain... appeal to the picture." she smiles softly, running her hand over Sam's arm.

by **Samantha McManus** » Thu Jan 20, 2011 9:22 pm

She quirked her brow again.

"Well, I'd rather say that's something I didn't know you fancied."
