June 13th - New Tricks

Postby Rima Faheed » Fri Jul 29, 2011 1:33 pm

A strange looking woman is sitting on a low-hanging branch, apparently doing string figure tricks between her hands. Though on a closer look the back of her hands appear to be covered in yellowish blisters or membranes.

Nina looks up at the girl from the base of the tree, "...You're in my tree."

"It's a public tree." she says before looking down. "Oh hey, Nina, right?"

"Oh, I hope so," Nina says with a smile, "I hate it when I'm someone else."

"How have you been, Rima?"

"I once got distracted for 46 hours watching grass grow," Nina says, "I am pretty sure I don't have a good idea of 'the usual'."

"It was pretty fascinating at the time," Nina says, looking a little embarrassed.

"So, what are you doing?"

"Oh just killing some time, messing around." she says, holding up her hands to show the spiderweb between them.

She balls it up (not that there's much substance to it) and flicks it away. "Just starting to figure out how this whole spinning thing works."

"I imagine it's a bit tricky if you don't have the instincts for it," Nina says, starting to climb the tree.

"Seems to work okay." she says, scooting over on the branch to make room for Nina.

"Course it's not much use for anything. Maybe I can use it for a stage costume, but that just seems like a giant hassle."

Nina giggles, "That does seem like a little too much work for something you'll probably end up ripping off anyway."

"Maybe if someone with a spider fetish wants a private session." she laughs. "You wouldn't believe some of the stuff people ask for."

"I dunno, I have a pretty active imagination," Nina says, "Besides, you never know. Maybe you'll run into a fan of Spider-Woman."

"That's the least of my worries. I'm afraid I might run into someone who's a fan of spiders. You know, 'fan'." she says, actually doing the air-quotes thing with her fingers.

"I can't imagine that'd be a comfortable thing to be a 'fan' of," Nina muses.

"Let's just say that more then one guy has mentioned the uses they could get out of a removable head," Nina says, rolling her eyes.
