Vanessa Carlysle

@FaceCoIIector "Relaaax, it's just a small promotion party of a scientist from Alchemax. She even brought other scientists with her!"

@CopycatsGrace "Bright and ready, darling. You have me all to yourself..." "But I'm not cleaning any of YOUR messes."

"Babe. You got a moment?" @FaceCoIIector

@FaceCoIIector "Didn't know they were still around. Good for them." The towels slipped off for the off shoulder crop top and leather jeans underneath. "We good? Gotta get your eyes off that computer some time tonight."

@CopycatsGrace "X-Force reads emails." Winking as the glass is brought to her lips. "All in due time; a series of headaches and a lot of money, if we play this right."

@FaceCoIIector "They cute? Then again, the cute ones aren't reading emails. Just the rich ones." Body leaned on the counter, watching the Raven's hands.

@CopycatsGrace "A martini and a dirty email. Just putting some bait on the line for one of my favorites in the near future.'

@FaceCoIIector Steam crept out of the open bathroom door. With Vanessa's hair and body wrapped, she crept around to the kitchen with a smile. "Whatcha makin'?"

@CopycatsGrace Time for a little plan of her own... She knew Vanessa would take time. She saunters to the kitchen to pour a drink.

@FaceCoIIector "Still gotta shower! Sit tight, babe, will be out on a bit." Two taps to her side before she nabs a towel and heads for their hotel bathroom.

@CopycatsGrace "If you say so." The dress of the day: a white, low cut piece.

@FaceCoIIector "Is it really that intense? Just divide by two and bam! Number crunching done."

@CopycatsGrace "I need a distraction from all of the number crunching, that's for sure."

@FaceCoIIector "Wonderful. You got my account too? Was gonna shower and see what's up in the bars downstairs. You game?

@CopycatsGrace "Come in? Just wiring some money around."

Model, club owner, mercenary. What a crazy life!

@nyxcutioner "Just a number I threw out. Thought you might get bored of me after a while. Guess not..."

@CopycatsGrace A fine place to get her hands around the wrists to keep her pinned down. "And if I don't wanna leave when you say?"

"Cheryl, bust out the rum! We're celebrating today!" The leather bound cowgirl stepped through the much drier bar with her proud statement. She sat comfortably right next to @nyxcutioner and popped a brow. "...you're a new face 'round here."

@nyxcutioner "It'll be our secret, babe. Don't worry." Her fingers made sure her back wasn't left alone, pulling the other mutant to be on top. "Couple more hours, and you can go."

@CopycatsGrace "Not at all. Just don't make this a recurring habit; I have to keep an image, y'know."

@nyxcutioner "Just worked out like that. I genuinely was planning on doing that hit. I'll check the boards to see who actually iced the guy. 'Till then... Don't think it'll hurt to have a couple more moments with you, if you don't mind."

@CopycatsGrace "You set me up for a cancelled job, leaving me with extra cash and an adrenaline high that I needed sorted. got a feeling you knew how this would fly." It's a fine position for the two, one that the mutant settles down into as her face rests into her hand. "Totally innocent.'

@nyxcutioner "Yeah, I'll swing by before I leave, babe. Talk to you soon." Click. Vanessa curled to sit up and cover Laura's body with her own. "You little devil. Didn't seem like it took too much to get you comfortable with me. You been waiting for something like this?""

@CopycatsGrace huffing, eyes glued to the ceiling in silent protest as the two held their call. ...maybe squeezing her a bit during it would throw her focus off.

@nyxcutioner "It's Cheryl. She probably just has an update on our now canned mission. Won't take long." Legs wrap around Laura to swing her to her side, clicking onto the call with a smile. "Hey, babe. Uh huh. Yeah, that's not needed anymore, but I'll take it for future stuff. Thanks."

@CopycatsGrace "you pick that cell up and I'm gonna stab it." She won't, but she's noticed her appreciation for a threat or two.

@nyxcutioner "Unfff... You got some skill, Laura." Small kisses to her neck and cheek before she moved the other mutant to her side for more cuddling. A night of bliss she won't forget. Unfortunately, her phone starts ringing. "...gotta take this babe. Sorry."

@CopycatsGrace For the first night in a while Laura's senses dull in this intense fling of theirs. No more overthinking, no more dread. If only for a moment. At the end, they'd hold together close beneath shared intensity.

@nyxcutioner Arms fall back. She wasn't in the driver's seat anymore, letting Laura dish out whatever she held in the entire time.

@CopycatsGrace She doesn't give her a response. Laura finds contact with Vanessa's lips, rolling her over to have the woman against her back.

@FaceCoIIector "Raven. Got that Intel you wanted. Orchis is in the dumps. Their last scientist is six feet under, and their research is up in flames. Fingers slide into her pocket to deliver the thimb drive. "Here's that project they had planned for Destiny."

@CopycatsGrace "If this elderly individual were in the room, she'd probably scold you for your flippant mouth." Her disguise broke with golden eyes peering through. "Vanessa."

It was late for a jog, but she had someone to meet up with. In the usual Central Park meet-up spot, Vanessa paced herself under the stony bridge and checked her watch. Red eyes darted right to @FaceCoIIector. "Hey, you see an old lady around?"

@FaceCoIIector "Red hair, affinity for skull related jewelry. Think she's been around for a couple of centuries... Gotta get some clarity one that one." Eyes bounced to a couple of women that were jogging pass her, taking note of their clothing.

@CopycatsGrace "You'll have to be more specific, there's so many old people in this park that they probably knew a smart aleck like you."

@nyxcutioner "And how exactly are you going to do that...?"

@CopycatsGrace "I love a good cuddling now and then... But we did plenty of that. Gotta be sure you're taken care of after all you did for me."

@nyxcutioner "Good to know. Never took you as a cuddly type. Glad I was wrong..."

@CopycatsGrace "Way more interested in this right here, anyway."
