🧪 Eden: What is the worst thing you've ever overheard one of the Rangers say? I saw that post in her tag about her enjoying eavesdropping and I simply couldn't resist.
🍒: that’s a tough one
Eden hums as she Struggles to think of something worth mentioning. As she digs through her purse for some candy. Offering you a peice as she says
🍒:Common things really. Rangers being tired over the press and PR. Or just feeling drained after a mission. Back in my Sidestep days Steel never made it easy to overhear things. Much less be apart of the actual conversation itself.
Eden huffs as she crosses her arms, foot tapping to the rhythm of her rising temper as the past comes to tickle and tempt the present.
🍒: Now that you ask about that. You wouldn’t believe the things I’ve overheard, or snippets of thoughts inside of their heads.. But of course “Blue Skinned Freaks”was heard loud and clear. I mean. You've seen and heard about Five Pennies right? The cruel lunatic—And yet, I’m the bad guy because I’m not human!? I heard through the Grape vine that Alvarez green light and funded a new suit for a” new” recruitment. That’s going to put a bit of a dampener on plans if my theories are true. And don’t get me started on Danny.
Eden looks left and right. As if searching for somebody, anybody. But it’s just the two of you. Thinking better of it she takes what looks like to be a toy cigarette out of her purse and points it at you. For it’s too late. Eden has already started.
🍒: Name dropping me at the Gala like that. MY name. I can’t tell if I should be glad or pissed he didn’t say Sidestep while trying to talk Argent down at the Gala. It would be a hassle if I had to go out of my way to hunt down that Mia reporter. Not that it would be hard, with her bitting at Red Admiral’s heels every chance she gets. But poor little Danny wants to be taken seriously. Says Ortega thinks He’s naive and that Ortega treats him like a baby. After all “Ortega is full of Shit.” Not my words. Daniel’s. Never think I’d see the day he shit talk Ortega like that.
Bubbles come out of the cigarette. You didn’t think you ever seen anyone angrily blow bubbles. But here we are.
🍒: Can’t blame him. Ortega sometimes has their head up their own ass that I’m surprised that their breath doesn't smell of shit. Don’t get me going about the things they said about their little flings during their glory days as the PR’s little poster model . I mean, you heard what they asked me to do to “dear ol’ Riley”, right? God! Till this day I’ll never forget the audacity that they even asked me to that. And yet again, I’M the Bad Guy for waiting peace and tranquillity for all.
Eden bites on the toy cigarette as she digs through her purse. Practically spilling and tossing its contents to the floor. Chap stick, empty candy wrappers, a mini note pad, more empty candy wrappers, pencils, more empty candy wrappers. 🍒: I don’t think I’m in the wrong for- fucking hold on.
Eden shakes out her purse in search for more candy, or perhaps more bubbles to fuel the little toy between her lips. But you have a funny feeling that nows the time to leave if you want to get home before the sunsets. She hasn’t stopped talking, and you don’t think there’s a stop anytime soon.

prompt can be found here if anyone else may want to play as well.
Despite how this went she does like to gossip and just eavesdrop onto people’s thoughts or conversation. It’s one of the few reasons she likes to grocery shop. Just so she can read into the thoughts of the poor grocery stores clerks mind as the day dream during the graveyard shift.
