asgardgenesis | video; did you miss her?

[ They say with age, comes wisdom.

This is like that - but with age, came a solid addiction to Margaritas. Wisdom, it can be agreed, is second to this.

But does that give any kind of chill? Wrong. But she is definitely older, even if the details are still the same: flaming red hair, big green eyes, a robotic arm, and a voice horrendously loud as she booms down the connection. Eighteen has become twenty-five has become a bitter, lonely, running hard and fast and mean.

That jittery exuberance is the same though. For anyone who might have noticed her going missing for a couple of weeks (read: anyone who had to listen to her talk all the time at the top of her lungs), she's back.

And she appears to be, solidly, happily, drunk, waving an arm around, that is holding a champagne glass and a gun in the other. ]

'Sup, Asgard! You know how you all said I should get a hobby?

[ That shit-eating grin just gets bigger. ]

Well, guess what, I did -

[ wait for it. She sculls the champagne and throws the glass on the ground. ]

Now I'm a wedding planner! [ She bursts out laughing so hard she snorts before she clears her throat. There is a heavy swing of what appears to be a truly ridiculously sized gun in her teeny-tiny hands that she wields comfortably. ] Well this thing is freaking useless again, I can't believe I leave for like a decade and you guys can't invent guns yet.

Someone get me a margarita, stat. Mama's got a thirst that needs quenching after those freaking weird tentacle... cult.... guys... the creepy beating heart of a vault monster, whatever! I am wasted and I want to stay that way, so point me in the direction of the booze!

Now there's a voice I'd thought was a little silent. A pity your guns haven't been made, but we are currently fighting off rather annoying vegetation and a bit of drama that comes with being sealed away in a cave to die.

I don't have margaritas but I still make rice wine - if you want some, that is.

A wedding planner? Holy shit, who gave you that job? [he's laughing, too. mostly with the idea that someone would want gaige as a wedding planner but also because it's weirdly fitting with her enthusiasm.]

Was it really that long? [she does look quite a bit older, which is both great and unfortunate. the latter because now klaus'll feel less weird making comments like,] Either way, looking good there, girl. [coupled with a tongue click and a fingergun; he's shameless as per usual. did she miss him, however? because he's definitely glad to see her still around.]

I could find a way to whip you up a margarita lickety-split. Hope you like 'em strong, though. [a beat then,] I beg your goddamn pardon, did you say “tentacle cult guys” and “heart of a vault monster?”

Jesus, no wonder you're looking to stay drunk! What the hell have you been doing?

[ He'd noticed her absence very quickly, but not because Asgard had gotten quiet. They are essentially coworkers by now, after all. After a few days, though, he did notice that Asgard got a little bit quieter.

He's also oddly happy to have her back. Did he even care for her that much? Apparently. ]

A decade?

[ Holy shit. ]

It's not been that long here, Gaige.

Oh! I didn't know anyone needed a wedding planner! Or that weddings even had them! [Sorry Gaige, Alice is still learning sarcasm.] Why does being a wedding planner require a um... weapon?

[ It's really weird to see someone suddenly look older like that. It's not like Chizuru hasn't seen others grow old back home, but it's so much more a gradual process when you see them every day. Not seeing Gaige for a while and then suddenly seeing her like this.. well, it makes Chizuru stare for a moment before she replies.

And even when she still looks kind of baffled as she speaks. ]

This might sound like a silly question, but was the wedding planner part a joke or not? [ She genuinely can't tell when it was followed up by that laugh! ]

Hey kiddo, you're back.

[ Oh, how he has missed this firecracker of a girl. Though she isn't much a kid anymore, is she? No, not anymore. She's definitely older, and not just because she mentioned having been gone for a decade, she looks it. It takes Dante a moment to wrestle with the previous image he had of Gaige ─ young, angry, a kid bearing way to many wounds for her age ─ with this new one...

Damn, she looks good. ]

Sounds like you've got a few stories to tell, huh? You should tell me all about it over some booze.

[Yeesh, a lot's changed for you, bud. That much is apparent. Still, Jet's more than capable of acknowledging and then moving past this, since asking questions about the obvious isn't necessarily his style.]

long time to be gone.
no guns yet.

:(

Hehehe, I was wondering what was going on with you.

Someone fast-forwarded didn't they? Promise not to do that again, would ya? I'm not sure we could take grandma exploding things all over the place blitzed drunk.

[Pause. Wait.]

Whattaya mean wedding planner?
