3 ☽ ACTION ☾ RIDE THE WIND
[ Daylight is too harsh for Berthier, if she is entirely honest. She spends most of her time out in the streets hiding beneath a parasol, fair-skinned and fair-haired, large blue eyes with pupils contracted down to pinpricks. She's meant for somewhere darker, the very edge of the solar system where it's always cold and the sun does not reach.
The nighttime is better. The air is cooler and it is much easier for her to see without squinting against that hateful daystar. The more distant stars, tiny pricks of subdued light are better appreciated, and this city has nowhere near the light pollution of central Tokyo. She appreciates that.
Tonight, she is appreciating it from above the rooftops. A lithe figure flitting overhead, jewels glittering at her ears and silver hair a liquid sheen in the low light. It's not the first time that she's explored the City from above, but it's the first time she hasn't gone out to spy.
...At least not on purpose. ]

Not everyone can manage those things efficiently.

I'm quite erudite, really.

Who?
Action
Erudite, hm?
Action
I've never lived on Earth, you know.
Action
One of the greatest scientific minds of the 20th century, and let me tell you, da Vinci's hair was no great shakes either.

They tried to arrest me for that nonsense. Some man with terrible hair actually put his hands on me.
[It was offensive in the extreme, okay. Humans need to learn their damn place.]
Action
[Somewhere along the way he's finished his cigarette and he's getting fidgety because he still has that urge to fly. How annoying.]
Action
It was taken care of.
Action
Bribery? Blackmail? Unexpected acts of violence? Do tell.
Action
Do I seem terribly violent to you?
Action
A pretty face is hardly a guarantee of non-violence. Sometimes it goes quite the opposite way in fact.
Action
How cynical.

I'll see what I can do. I haven't done a good whispering campaign in years.

[She arcs over backwards, stretching idly with her feet pointed, braid trailing towards the rooftop. That's definitely what the Black Moon Clan does with obnoxious super-powered children.]
