his duties as knight were on hold. he’d needed a respite from his travels, his trustworthy blade. (what better place to unwind than dear friend’s extravagant kingdom? thus, self-made vacation began.)

the boy had been reading books. chiefly, poetry and epic adventure tales. scent of baking cookies – savory, appetizing – lead him toward nifty kitchen area.

She's got flight plans to write and student assignments to grade after. She isn't, technically, behind on either - but Nat operates on the principal that early is on time, and on time is late. Being ahead has gotten her this far, at least.

she walks in, shoes looped about a finger. the stockings are torn, but she doesn't really care, blood trickling from her nose. it was a good job ; exciting, at least, her gaze roving around the diner before it landed on a woman in uniform, behind the counter, coffee carafe in hand. "got a table for me?" her words popping like the other's pink bubblegum mouth did around the greeting that she finally managed to STUTTER OUT. she motioned to a window seat, but the person in the next booth gave her pause, her grin trending wider, before she slid in opposite of her.

the window booth of a greasy diner, blurred city lights reflected in the glass.

"long night?" it's the kind of casual exchange that might puzzle any observers, ada reaching the thin paper napkins that pleated outwards from the metal tin. delicately, she dabbed at her nose, rubbing away the RUSTING BLOOD. "oh, don't worry. most of it isn't mine." her lips curving into that mocking smile, so hard to tell what was or wasn't the truth when it came to her. instead, she shifts almost uncomfortably in her stretch knit dress, letting the shoes find rest on the sticky seat beside her. the menu gets put down by the same waitress, ada grasping at her apron before she turned. "... some coffee, please." she needs that little extra push. they both know there's still hours to go before she can be human again.

zip yourself in, paint yourself a canvas. and suddenly, you can become anyone, and be anywhere. really, she knew it more as the understanding that a pretty face can get you where you need to be, and in her case, she was one of many within the sea of perfect faces. easy to ignore because most likely, she came ATTACHED to someone else's arm, and given the crowd, nobody wanted to be found approaching the wrong person's woman. she could let that work in her favour, milling, looking bored, hovering by the snack table as she pointed out different men for each ask that might have rolled in from the other bored socialites as to who she might have come with.

none of them LOOK UP from their phones, so it works.

none of them understood the stakes, and likely, that was to their own benefit. the banality of evil often would shock the average person. how easy it was to slip from one side of the spectrum, to the other, when it came to chasing after the things you WANTED. and here, was just another example of that, having broken in to begin with to follow after a supposed back door that a prominent tech mogul had developed within a service being widely leveraged by the public. there were more than a few that wanted t the same sort of access as the US government, or at least a way to defend themselves... who was ada to say no to that?

the only problem was the other woman that she'd seen. OLYMPIA. deadly, dangerous, devastating. a beautiful woman with a sharper understanding of how to wield her weapon, she didn't want the attention that the two of them might draw to themselves, and when their eyes met, she had a feeling the thought was the same. were they here for the same reasons? oh, i hope i packed my good knives then.

it's all FUN AND GAMES until you've got to fight rival company.
