We haven't had a chance to meet yet, right? I'm sure you know already, but it feels weird not to say it, so - I'm Libby. Um, looking forward to working with you.
[ fei du glances at the coffee, and though it is not visible that his nose turns up, he does turn his head to glance slightly at luo wenzhou. well. are you going to drink it.
to the ladies, with a more genial smile: ]
Thank you all for coming to meet so quickly. You're right - I think the spread of abilities we have here will make for a well balanced group. All we need is a name to submit for, and I think that process should likely be democratic.
Ladies. [ to libby specifically: ] Better to introduce ourselves than let the app do it for us, right? Luo Wenzhou, and likewise.
[ wenzhou doesn't even spare fei du a sideeye, amicable to the familiar kyoko and the newly met libby. he's taking the coffee with a polite thanks and will absolutely drink it. nothing is worse than the bureau coffee. probably. ]
The "psych" abilities and the skillsets both, probably. Including whatever their stupid senses of humor didn't add to the list.
[it feels polite to have some of the coffee since it was offered, so she gives kyoko a little nod of thanks and then takes a sip! she tries very hard to tame her expression at the taste, also to be polite. it does not work very well at all. she coughs.
anyways, name!]
Um - this is kind of cheesy. [sheepish.] But reading over the profiles, it seems like something we have in common is that we're all pretty intelligent? So I was thinking about that and then, um. You know what Smarties are? Like, the candy. They were my sister's favorite.
[...]
I think that's about the only idea I've got, though. And it's kind of - like I said, cheesy.
[ the way fei du's mouth twitches up when libby coughs suggests that he is also very much trying to restrain himself from laughing at her. affectionate. ]
So far nearly every idea we've had has been cheesy. Then again, our competition includes - [ as he scrolls down his phone: ] 'BDSM', so, really, the sky's the limit.
How about something like 'Theory?' Though, I do like sweets...
[ the only reaction that wenzhou has to the coffee is to crinkle his nose a little and peek into the slurry that has been concocted, before he just shrugs and takes another drink. ]
BSDM, Go to Sleep, someone yelling "justice" really loudly via text... I don't even know how you're supposed to say the peace sign team's name. [ swishing his coffee and giving fei du a Look when he says he likes sweets, focusing on the topic after. ] Smarties Theory.
[ he's. mostly going to leave the naming up to the three of them, frankly. ]
[ re: BDSM team's snafu. but there is zero hesitation before wenzhou shoves the side of fei du's head without even looking at him, as if he can sense the sideeye. ]
Sweet Theory works for me. Let's not be like - [ looks at kyoko ] - ah, peace.
he’s less affronted by this rude behavior than you might expect, though he does rub the back of his head after and give him a bit of a look. rude. ]
For the most part. How sweet.
Let’s make sure we stay in close contact - and we may as well share information, too. I spoke a little to the Reapers, but they’re not exactly forthcoming.
I agree. And we should consider pooling together funds for things. Not all of our money, obviously, but maybe a small portion of anything we earn can be set aside for team-related things or emergencies. God knows we'll be budgeting anyways.
It sounded like we could ask them for things that aren't available in the stores? I'm not sure whether an oven or a stove would be a feasible request, but we could check. For bedding that isn't the kind in the store, too.
We can, but there's a limit. I asked Aika about it - but we can get small things. Bedding, maybe - we might be able to ask for a hot plate, or something small, but I think it's likely we'll get another type of food sometime soon.
If I had to guess, maybe a convenience store. If it's anything like home.
[ since they're in a big old city and all. ] If I can get a tool kit, I can fix the outlets. Between my psych and the tools, it should be easy.

So this is the team, hm? There's a good spread of abilities here.

[ Anyway she's drinking her coffee without a single flinch.
It seems like soy sauce was added to it. ]
I've tested out the healing capability of mine earlier today.

Ah, peace? [ A stab at it. ]
We could go with Sweet Theory. Or something like Theory Craft.
no subject
[which is still bad, but. she tilts her head in thought.]
Oh - Sweet Theory has a nice ring to it. Or if we wanted something more stylized, I guess, the chemical formula for sugar is C12H22O11.
[fucking nerd]
no subject
Let's go with Sweet Theory, if you're all amicable - even if it might be funny to hear someone try to parse out the chemical formula verbally.

Alright. Then it's settled. We're Team Sweet Theory.
[ And submitted! ]
no subject
[which is maybe the problem. anyways, she gives a nod as she tries not to stare at fei du getting his head casually shoved.]
I like it. Seems like it suits us.

Real food.
no subject
[ ... ]
Sleeping arrangements, I suppose, would also be good to have.
no subject
[ ... ah ]
Some means of making our own food, and sleeping arrangements. Probably the priority? The single bed was $6 or something, right.
no subject
I believe the bedding is currently sold out.
I haven't seen anything like an oven for sale. Maybe they'll become available the start of next week?
