Lottie chuckled, shaking her head slightly. “I never understood the mindset of that — throw on a suit, and you’re someone else entirely, and no one can tell you who you were beforehand.” she explained, before gesturing towards his face. “It’s the eyes, the cheeky smile. I pay attention to the details.”
She shook her head in response to his question about Oceandrive, when he spoke to her about her newness, and his seniority. “Ah, yeah, the Seven.” she replied with a small smile. Sighing, Lottie glanced towards the window and to the outside world momentarily. “Okay then, I’ll allow you to enlighten me — but if your girlfriend gets jealous, you can deal with her, and the papers.” She tapped the paper she’d handed to him for good measure, flashing him a grin as she tucked away her belongings into her handbag.
The Deep laughed back, he didn’t understand the psychology behind it either but he just went along with whatever Vought said. “I think it’s something to do with perception. The world doesn’t want to see a normal guy behind the suit, they want heroes and gods and we are that.” Maybe that was why they were all so quick to hate him? “So my eyes and smile are the first thing you notice, interesting.” He said coyly with that cheeky smile she seemed to like. The Seven was everyone’s dream and it was his even when he wasn’t even part of Vought. The Deep remembered getting the call saying Vought wanted him and he thought he’d be stuck with a low rated team but they wanted him for the best. “She doesn’t get jealous and besides this isn’t a date, why do you think she’d be jealous?” He could do charm for days on end, it was all part of his image and even though Starlight had destroyed some of that, there were still some people who thought there was still something in him. “Where to first, we’ve got the second-best hot dogs in New York or central park. Dealers’ choice?”
Lottie grinned, shrugging her shoulders as she rose from her seat. "Isn't that the first thing you notice about people?" she asked almost as though she were surprised. She glanced around with a matter of fact smile. "And hot dogs sound good — Central Park is every tourist's first place to go."
