OOC

Hey yall,

Just so everyone is on the same page, I’ll be stepping away from the roleplay due to a lack of time commitment on my end. I love you all, this roleplay and I will greatly miss Onyx while I am away. I hope to return eventually but for now, this is goodbye.

I wish you all the best of luck and to have fun (angsty) times.

GENERAL STARTER 007: GAMBLING

Location: Oakenfold Casino Date: March 09, 2018 Availability: Open

She was at a craps table on the main floor, playing with avid interest. It was little more than chance, she knew that, but then, that was what this was about, making ( or losing ) money off little more than mathematical laws about the universe. Though for her, that hardly defined why she was there at all; for her, it was the combination of that and the main floor, that and the chance to not be anything more than a face in the crowd.

She’d been doing a damn good job of it tonight. Part of her knew it was a farce, that she’d probably had eyes on her since she walked in but she hadn’t been bothered. Or at least she hadn’t been, until she found the dice pushed in her direction. Tossing them at the opposite end of the table, she found herself distracted by a familiar face walking toward her from the other side of the table; instead of paying the dice mind, she found herself frowning at them, fleetingly. Quickly after, gaze fell on the dice and her frown lightened, realizing she’d rolled a 7. Picking up newly won chips and slotting them in the holder, she turned her attention to the person now standing next to her with a sigh, “What do you want?” Her attention on them didn’t last long, as she turned back to the dice and tossed them at the opposite end of the table again.

“Obviously your attention, of course.” He replied easily and readily with the hint of a smile though it hid behind a mask of neutrality, “Oh and also to point out how bored you look. I thought I could capitalize on your boredom and point you towards one of my tables...” He leaned forward and squinted, acting as if the distance to — more or less — his domain was a far distance away. He acted unfazed by her cold shoulder and the near-scowl she gave a few short moments earlier but did wonder how often she did that. “I see craps is a very demanding, high-stakes game but I bet you’d totally enjoy poker a lot more.”

Onyx then pointed towards a poker table and shrugged nonchalantly, “Not as much mindless repetition and you look like you could use the break away from craps anyway...”

The problem with outdoor photoshoots was that they were entirely dependent upon the weather. The day had turned overcast, meaning the idyllic spring-in-New-York look the photographer was going for, hoping to get shots for upcoming issues of magazines was a bit too real to sell. Even retouching could only do so much to help, so they’d quit early and rescheduled the rest for another day, giving Nadia the afternoon off.

Rather than call a cab, she decided to walk to a nearby coffee shop uptown. She’d barely gotten a few blocks before hearing her name called. She smiled inwardly; there was a thrill about being recognized in the street by fans that never got old. At least not when she’d been professionally styled and knew she looked photo-ready. Turning, she smiled obligingly for a photo.

“Good to see you guys!” she said to the fans who’d stopped her. “I’m definitely not trying to rush you away, but if you’re hoping for more celebrity sightings today, I should tell you that about two blocks up I passed Lin Manuel Miranda. If you hurry, you might catch up with him.”

Crowds drew Onyx’s attention particularly during moments when he didn’t know why there was a crowd in the first place. Really, looking back on it, it should have been more obvious and partway through he regretted seeking out an answer. It was too late now, he decided, he was already committed and he couldn’t just stop and turn away now.

So Onyx slipped between gathering bodies with little word like a snake weaving through unkept grass and stopped at the fringes, looking exactly where everyone else’s attention seemed to be directed. Fans, he guessed, approached her for photos and after a certain point of watching them struggle and embarrass themselves, Onyx offered to photograph them — people handing over their devices to him never stopped being surprising. The amount of hidden fun he could have without them knowing until after was like capturing small moments of something special and temporary.

One of the things he did was snap a photo of their legs then — as he claimed — get their phone accidentally locked for forty-five minutes. “Yikes,” He ran a hand through his hair, grimaced and glimpsed at the spotted celebrity pointing others towards Lin Manuel Miranda’s direction. “Sorry. I don’t know how that happened... Yeah, yeah, I got the pic- Yeah, totally.” The fan looked more confused than upset but he knew that would change later. Maybe.

Another person side-eyed him as if they saw or knew what he did. Maybe. He stepped away from them but looked back at the person of the hour, “So, uh, how often does this kind of thing happen?” He motioned around, referring to the fans and the picture taking.

You know, the Maldives are beautiful this time of year. The weather is infinitely better than the city.

Really? You think so? I always thought the pollution and overpopulation of the city got in the way of everything else, including the Maldives.

“Oh, was- Was I doing that? It’s just, you know, you have something... Right here. Underneath your lip. It’s kinda...distracting. Actually, no, I take that back... Not kinda, very. It’s very distracting.”
