[text to: Broer 💰✨] Okay but SCREEN is kind of amazing!! [text to: Broer 💰✨] I get an ENTIRE floor of the tower to myself and access to all the recreational rooms in the tower just for being affliated [text to: Broer 💰✨] You'd save a lot of money if you just came here and worked for them 😜

[text to: zusje] 

Happy you’re safe. You should take some pictures around the tower.A whole floor sounds like you’ll have a lot to clean. Remember not to let chores add up now you’re by yourself.

Don’t worry about me, I make more money now. 💰

[He’s happy to hear she’s safe, their former life her never suited her.] 

[But it sounds like I’ll have to be even more careful about being detected. What a pain.]

If you want to see what the tower looks like you should just come take a look yourself Maar 

I feel like I couldn’t make it that dirty in such a short amount of time. I’m sure they have people around here to do that anyway. If not I could get you to come clean it for me 😽

You know I always worry about you, especially because that line of work could get you thrown in jail... again

“I can pay for the dry cleaning.” He offered. Lovino would certainly loathe too end their meeting on any kind of sour note, especially for a lady such as her self. There was no doubt in his mind that, inevitably, he’d end up pissing off most of the people that made his acquaintance with his attitude. If he was going to have one person here that could stand his presence, then who better than her?

“After all, I’d hate to leave you like this- you weren’t going anywhere in a rush, I’d hope?”

Céline was about to decline his offer to pay for her dry cleaning, but in her mind she imagined her brother’s voice reprimanding her for not accepting the offer. Even when he wasn’t physically there, his uncompromising frugality kept it’s influence over her. “I would really appreciate that, thanks!” She replied, also a bit glad that she might get to spend a little more time with the man. He’d proven himself to be a pretty good person so far, and she needed more friends in the city. “My name is Céline, by the way.” 

“I was actually just going to get coffee, but it looks like the coffee came to me.” Céline replied laughing lightly. “But other than that I’m not really in a hurry. Work might call me in though, then I’d need to be off in a hurry.”

“I can assure you that’s not the case.” Lovino flashed her a charming, if apologetic, smile, and then proceeded to extract tissues from his pocket. Something he could’ve conducted a little more smoothly, but nevertheless he did offer it to her. “I should’ve been paying attention, I’m very sorry.”

“That’s reassuring.” Céline replied. She was the kind of person that couldn’t let something like this ruin her day, so she returned the smile the man had given her, and accepted his offering of tissues to her. The stains would be harder to get out, but she wouldn’t feel too bad if she had to throw the shirt out. “Thank you, but it’s okay! People make mistakes, if anything you’re good in my book because you didn’t just walk away and leave me to clean myself up.” If he did that, that would have ruined her day.

Had he not been stealing very expensive (and heavy) artwork, François might have hummed or sung. He set the statue down softly. Pulling the magicked necklace from a pocket, he slipped it over the statue’s head, whereupon it vanished as the transportation spell whisked it home and the stabilizing spell waiting for it so it didn’t break while he was gone.

Pausing, the blond frowned. Something was wrong. Sure, he had accidentally set off that silent alarm, which had made him hasty, but he was certain he would have noticed another person. Twisting around, François murmured a spell to enhance his night vision. There! A small figure, hip cocked, in the alley. Another spell modulated his voice, warping the edges and adding a faint echo.

“Do I have an admirer? Why do you stay in the shadows?”

Céline’s attention had been deferred briefly as she’d jumped down onto the ground, so she just barely saw as the statue was whisked away, disappearing from sight. Great, not only was this guy super strong, but he seemed to have some sort of magical ability too. And he’d sent the statue away. She’d been hoping to confront a criminal that wasn’t nearly as powerful as this man had already proved himself to be. Not that she didn’t like a challenge, but even she wondered if she could take this guy on her own. 

Typically Céline disguised her own voice by taking on the voices of people she’d heard throughout her day, the one she’d been using earlier was the voice of one of the barista’s at her favorite coffee bar. Hearing the warped voice that the man had taken on was too interesting not to parrot back to him, so she did. “I don’t think I’d say I admire you, especially after stealing precious artwork and making such a big mistake like setting off that alarm.” 

Taking a couple steps forward into the light, she took in his appearance from up close and felt like she might’ve seen him on TV before, but no name was coming to mind. “If you wanna make up for that mistake, you should just bring back that statue and return it to where it belongs. That might make me admire you.”

Coffee, yes. One of the greatest inventions of the modern world. Never again would Lovino stick his head in ice cold water to wake up in a morning- instead being gently brought into complete consciousness by the delicious scent of freshly brewed coffee. Or cheap shit bought at the closest store; as much as Lovino loved to have good taste there were jut some levels of consciousness in which he’d let it slide if his standards would drop. 

But not today- he’d decided to go all out and go to Starbucks. What a good start to the day, he hadn’t even had to make it himself. Lovino went so far as to allow himself to smile. Only a little, but nevertheless it was there. He stepped out of the shop- and walked right into a woman, spilling his coffee all down her from in the collision. Well don Lovino.

“Ah, sorry, ma’am-”

[clochedusoir]

Céline was surprised that people considered this good coffee. She’d grown up in the Low Countries, and in those areas they typically knew how to brew a genuinely good cup of coffee. This stuff wasn’t nearly as fresh, and the whole atmosphere of the shop always put her off. Perhaps it was something about it being run by a corporate business that threw her off; she preferred local run businesses over everything. They tended to make coffee that tasted better and had a more homey feel to them. Which was why she was walking passed Starbucks to go to the coffee shop a couple more blocks down, but was stopped as a man walked into her, spilling his coffee on her in the process. 

The man had successfully stained her new shirt, but she was typically a pretty patient person so she wouldn’t let this ruin her day. In fact, it gave her an excuse to go shopping again which wasn’t all so bad. She was just glad that the coffee hadn’t been scalding, otherwise she might’ve screamed and she knew how badly that would fare for anyone around to hear that. “Oh, uh, it’s alright.”  Céline replied, just kind of staring for a second at the mess he’d made before attempted to wipe some of the coffee off of her. “It was an accident I’m sure, unless you just really like to spill coffee on strangers, in which case I would have to be a little judgmental.”

Céline was sitting perched on a fire escape, watching the back exit of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Back at SCREEN tower they'd been alerted that one of the silent alarms had been triggered in the museum, so she'd immediately been sent out. Seeing that police officers were preparing to storm the front entrance, she took to the back, hoping that she'd be able to intercept the intruder as they ran away. This was her first official assignment with SCREEN, nothing too big, but regardless they'd offered her with some tech and equipment she would've never been able to pay for prior to joining. She was thankful, but using everything they'd offered would've deterred her rather than help, so she just put a  couple of them on her belt and went on her way. Considering that Céline wasn't yet a well known figure in the city both in and out of costume, so disguising herself might not have been necessary, but she chose to do so anyway, pulling a pair of tinted goggles down on her face. She hadn't done much to disguise herself in the years prior when she offered her abilities to people for money, and because of that she'd had people come after her as a civilian. She'd only recently cleaned those messes up so she preferred to keep her identity hidden, as most did. Well, except for Sheng and his group, apparently. Suddenly, the back door to the museum swung open and a figure emerged easily carrying what looked to be a rather large statue. This had to be her guy, so she adjusted her gloves and hopped down into the alley below. Landing a few meters in front of the figure, she looked them up and down and stood, placing a hand on her hip. "Wow, strong guy! That statue has to weigh at least a couple hundred pounds, no? Although, just because you can pick it up doesn't mean you can take it home. "

“CEY!!!!!”

It wasn’t a surprise to Sheng that a new member would be joining SCREEN, he had been reading through some classified files that Director Brooklyn tried to keep hidden. That didn’t stop him from looking for them- he was a genius who joined in an affiliated hero organization- he had to know everything. His family was here, he can’t have SCREEN be some horrible place after all.

So it wasn’t a surprise when he read a file about a new hero- he couldn’t reach much except the alias (the picture was removed for some reason). Brooklyn was headed inside her office and Sheng had to come up with a quick excuse why he was in there and put the file back. Although Brooklyn couldn’t get rid of him (why get rid of one of the most well known super hero groups?) that didn’t mean he wanted to get in her bad side. That was besides the point though, the point was that he wasn’t surprised about a new super hero showing up within a few days.

However he was surprised when he came across the new hero. The new hero being his long time online friend, Celine.

So that’s why he was running to her at full force, basically jumping to wrap his arms around her and hug her. His grin was wide and his eyes shining.

“I can’t believe it was you!!!!!! I’m so happy!!!! Oh my god!!!” Rambling, rambling.

Aside from during her brother’s stints in jail, this was the first time the two of them wouldn’t be living together. It was just slightly unnerving for her, but more than anything she was eager to get away from the life she lived being an independent. This didn’t mean making a complete disconnect from Maarten, she couldn’t imagine life without him, but going separate ways in terms of the impact they want to have on others was important to her. Maarten wanted to use his skills out of self-interest and she wanted to use her skills to help others. 

Turning a new leaf and joining SCREEN was something she’d been considering for a while, and after spending six months working multiple part time jobs that didn’t include using her powers, she felt this would be a much better use of her time. Not to mention the benefits of working with screen were almost unbelievable. In exchange for her work she got an entire floor of the tower to herself, food, and access to all the facilities within the tower. Everything she needed and more was at her fingertips. Not to mention, Sheng was here.

Céline had been friends with Sheng online prior to the start of his idol group and well before he joined SCREEN. So of course, he’d always gushed about it to her with each of his new successes. They knew just about everything there was to know about each other, but somehow they’d yet to meet in real life. Idol life and superhero life had been busy for him, but now that she was in SCREEN she was excited to surprise him. 

Sheng apparently saw her before she’d seen him, so as she carried her bags up into the tower she was nearly knocked over by him. She knew he’d been short but she hadn’t anticipated him being this tiny. “I’m surprised you figured out it was me this quickly.”Céline laughed, dropping her bag and hugging him back. “Isn’t this as great a first meeting as we always talked about?? I knew you’d be happy!”
